How do you make espresso coffee? Is it as if making regular coffee?

Colocha-

You need an espresso maker to make espresso.

Is anyone still using coffee and loving it

BUMPING for Klloydmajestic.

I basically just pour room temperature coffee on my wet hair and then rinse before applying conditioner - I find that using coffee this way (as a "coffee rinse") is a good shampoo substitute in terms of clearing away any build up on my hair or removing an overnight DT. But there are some other good tricks and tips on this thread that others might like!

Curltopia,

So coffee has some clarifying properties... that´s great! I would like to try coffee on my hair, the only thing I can think of is the brown mess on the shower!

Coffee rinses are awesome! No, they don't leave much mess because you are just pouring a thin brown liquid on your hair. It's even less messy if you use a bottle or bottle shaped container and tilt your head as you pour because the coffee will pour straight over your roots/hair and then head down to the drain without much fuss. Now, using coffee grounds on your hair, which I did once, is a horrible, horrible shower nightmare

Coffee will boost brown color on your hair and somewhat color grays, depending on how many gray hairs you have/ how resistant they are.

Try it and post your reviews!

Bumping because I hadn't tried this in a while and forgot how great it works. Must try again.
