First for Women: “Beat-the- heat beautiful!” with tips from Gina Rivera

Tame Frizzy Fly Aways

Puffy hair is practically a prerequisite of summer since sun-parched strands soak up the humid air’s added moisture to compensate for their straw-like makeup. Celebrity hairstylist Gina Rivera points to a beer rinse to resolve it. The brew’s silicon hydrates hair from within, its protein strengthens and seals the cuticle layer to keep excess moisture out, and malt and hops plump up locks. This results in sleek and smooth strands without compromising volume. TO DO: Pour a 12 oz. can of room-temperature, beer onto damp hair. Let sit 5 minutes, then rinse. Tip: Use only once every other week since beer’s alcohol can dry out hair if used too frequently.
