You can add body to your hair without spending a lot of money on expensive products or using harsh chemicals. Try these natural treatments for adding body and volume to your hair.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Egg
  • Bowl
  • Fork or Whisk
  • Beer
  • Sauce Pan
  • Stove
  1. Step 1

    Look in your refrigerator and see what you have on hand. You can use beer, or eggs, to add volume to your hair. Choose which of the following methods you would like to try.

  2. Step 2

    Eggs
    Beat the raw egg in a small bowl. If you have long hair, you will need two eggs. Rub the raw egg into your hair. Cover your hair with a towel or shower cap to prevent dripping. After leaving the egg on for 20 minutes, or longer, rinse the egg from your hair. Make sure the water is as cool as you can get it without being uncomfortable. Warm water will cook the egg. Shampoo again with your normal hair shampoo and dry as usual. You will be amazed at the extra body the egg gives your hair.

  3. Step 3

    Beer
    Reduce the beer in a sauce pan over medium heat until it is approximately ¼ the amount. Allow it to cool. Mix it into 1 cup of regular shampoo. Shampoo as you normally would with the "beer" shampoo. Rinse well. This does not need to be refrigerated.
