Do you really expect me to use a bar of soap on my hair? Yes, we do! Shampoo bars are a natural conditioning shampoo in a solid bar form. They do not strip hair like detergent based shampoos.

As you wash, rinse, or spray your hair with beer, its natural ingredients coat each strand and lend hair-nourishing benefits. The proteins found in the malt and hops help repair damage and enhance body and the natural sugars tighten and strengthen the hair cuticles for greater shine.

Clarifying your hair is a way to remove the build-ups some products leave on your hair which can make your hair dull and lifeless. Regular household baking soda (sodium Bicarbonate) is an easy clarifier to use. Baking soda naturally lifts grease and product residue from your hair.

Coffee softens, adds shine to hair and also brings out the highlights in your hair. The caffeine helps to increase circulation and stimulate the hair follicles to encourage growth. The rich antioxidants can help repair damage and prevent breakage.
