This process is pretty straightforward. I washed and conditioned my hair per usual, then slowly poured the wine over small sections of my hair. I let it set for a couple minutes and then rinsed well before stepping out of the shower. I applied a heat protecting blow dry cream, also per usual, and dried my hair.

Though my hair definitely smelled like wine in the shower, the scent subsided really quickly as my hair dried. I also attended a get-together that evening, sans alcohol, and nobody seemed to notice an odd scent in the air. I'm particularly sensitive to scents and could not smell the wine, either.

In terms of hair quality, the biggest difference I noticed was softness and some extra volume. I also felt like my hair laid a little better and was more cooperative in terms of styling. I was worried that my hair might feel sticky or crunchy but that wasn't the case at all. I think choosing a good wine — one that had higher quantities of resveratrol and wasn't ultra-sweet — was particularly helpful. For reference, this image of me is an "after" picture I took within an hour of blow drying and styling.

Would I do the rosé rinse again? Sure, but probably only if the wine was on the outs or if I somehow found myself with an over-abundance. Because to be perfectly honest, drinking rosé is just way more fun.
