Get stronger and thicker hair with this highly recommended scalp oil that Amazon reviewers swear by!

1. Add shampoo

Add 2 tablespoons of shampoo to a bowl.

Adding coffee

2. Add coffee

Add 1 teaspoon of coffee to the shampoo. Coffee is the magic ingredient!


Not only is it super rich in nutrients and vitamins that are vital for healthy hair, but the caffeine content can also stimulate your hair follicles and improve the rate of hair growth!


Coffee also acts as a natural dye to get rid of any stubborn grays or to just darken your hair without chemicals.

Mixing

3. Mix

Mix the coffee and shampoo mixture until it’s well-blended.


To use: Wash your hair with the coffee shampoo to add volume and boost your hair growth.

It’s a relatively simple but efficient step that can make all the difference.

    I was wondering the same thing, Michele. I was even wondering if you could just use generic instant coffee rather than a brand name that would cost more. If the author of the post would let us know, I’m ready to start my mixing TODAY! This is good to know.
