Happy hair is hoppy hair, so the next time you hop in the shower you might want to bring in a brew!

According to How Stuff Works, washing your hair with beer is great for a bunch of reasons. Malt and hops are full of protein that can strengthen hair cuticles and thanks to B vitamins and natural sugars it will add a nice shine to your locks. Plus, beer works just as well as those over-priced clarifying shampoos at removing leftover gunk from hair products.

If you're worried about smelling like a brewery after dousing your head with beer check out a couple tricks to ease the frat party perfume.

  • Use beer as a hair rinse by combining equal parts beer and water add two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. After your normal shower routine let your hair soak in the mixture for a few minutes and then rinse
  • Use beer as a leave in conditioner by making the same mixture as above, but put it in a spray bottle and spray away!

Cheers!
