Beer Rinse

$3.10 from Athientis Spar

So after my light bulb moment  a few weeks ago when i came to the realisation that I had thin hair, i trolled the WWW in search of a solution to  maybe make my hair a bit more dense/thicker.  I came across a Nigerian Naturals Page and it was suggested that i try a beer rinse hmm I thought, so off i went again to do more research on the WWW and YouTube.

Of Course don't take my word as the hard and fast facts I encourage people to do their own research, these are some of  benefits that I found can be achieved from doing a beer rinse. 

• Softer Hair
• More body/Bounce (This right here is what i am wanting)
• Shiny Hair
• Revitalised Curls

Some do say that a simple beer rinse can help with heat damage but I am not worried about that as  I currently do not suffer from any heat damage.

That said and done if you want to try a beer rinse here is what you will need.

• A pint of Non - Alcoholic Beer (or 2 pints depending on the length of your hair) I got mine from Athientis Fife Avenue for $3.10 (not cheap). Why non-alcoholic, well alcohol strips the hair of its moisture and would therefore dry your hair - not what we are after. **Though who drinks non-alcoholic beer??**

The Process

1. You will have to start with clean hair. I  co-washed my hair with Dischem Essential Treats Volumising Conditioner. 
2. I divided my hair into 4 sections and slowly poured the beer over that section making sure that my hair was thoroughly drenched. ( I did this with my head over the sink I dont quite like the idea of beer running down my back).
3. Let the beer sit in your hair for 3 - 5 minutes.
4. Rinse out the beer. At this stage you can use conditioner afterward, that's your prerogative.

And Voila you are done.

My observations from beer rinse;

My curls were definitely popping and more pronounced my hair was very soft and I can say more bouncy and fuller looking. I am going to be adding a beer rinse to my hair regime.

 * It is very important that you use a non-alcoholic beer when doing the beer rinse, this is because non-alcoholic beer is more acidic and will yield better results.

* Make sure that the beer is completely flat before you do the beer rinse. So you can leave it opened over night or you can just open and let it sit for a couple of hours before doing your rinse. 

3 Days After my beer rinse my hair has never looked so thick.
