I once couchsurfed with a guy in Hamburg, and he had bags filled to the brim with coffee grinds, generously donated by his local cafe. The most beautiful, thick head of hair you ever did see. He swore on coffee grinds.
Haven’t tried it myself yet, but I have a coffeepot in the kitchen with yesterday’s grinds… so, I’ll give it a go.

It’s messy, but I really love what they do my hair. Good luck, Tess!

I use coffee grounds for garden, for hiding the spot on household furniture and for losing weight (i’m still doing this, rub the grounds along your thighs and legs, haven’t seen any results yet).

Thanks for sharing your experience!

My husband still smokes (he stops and restarts every year)
and I dislike the smoke and ashtray smells. I put used coffee grounds in his ash tray and in open decorative containers around the “smoking” area.
In the ashtray, the grounds help extinquish the cigarette and really eliminate the smell of the butts. I think the open containers help eliminate any lingering smoke odors.
After reading these comments, I’m going to use any leftover coffee to flavor a pot roast and put the grounds out for my roses. Thanks.

That’s a great tip, Karen — my OH smokes too, although not in the house. Still, I think the grounds could help absorb whatever sneaks in!

I finally tried the coffee-grounds-as-hair-rinse tip. While it took FOREVER to rinse it all out, (& based on the black dots in the sink as I brushed my wet hair, I still didn’t get all the grounds, haha) it was worth it! My hair was soft without using conditioner, no frizz even, & I liked the subtle color difference.

Yes yes the mess! Totally agree. That said, I also agree that it’s so worth it…I mean not every day or even once a week, but I like to do it about once a month
