Make Your Own Beer Shampoo and Conditioner

Posted on August 12, 2014 · Leave a Comment

Did you know that beer is a shine-inducing, volume-amplifying and nutritious supplement for your hair?  That makes it great for shampoo and conditioner!

My friend, Jon, brought me back some shampoo, conditioner and body wash from Prague that was made out of beer and I loved it!  Instead of flying to Prague to get this beer wash, below are some recipes that use beer to keep your hair clean.

Beer Shampoo:

1 cup regular shampoo plus ¼ cup of flat, mild-scented beer.

The alcohol cleans, the beer shines and volumizes, and the yeast nourishes.

Beer Conditioner:

1 cup of warm, flat beer plus 1 teaspoon jojoba oil.  Jojoba oil is non-greasy and will contribute to moisturizing your hair.

For best results, the beer should be unfiltered and unpasteurized.

 

Have you used beer as a beauty product?  How did it work for you?

About BiteSize

Hi! I’m Jenna, but I got the nickname BiteSize in high school. I love homebrewing beer, thus BiteSize Brews. A blog focused on homebrewing, local brewery reviews and recipes. I’m lucky enough to live in the microbrewery capital of the world. I’m also a big fan of social media (chances are I’ll sprinkle a bit of it into this blog).
