3. Coconut oil mixed with Rosewater and Aloe Vera juice
This is another mixture your hair will thank you for, it is SO beneficial to your hair it is almost unbelievable. This one takes a little work, but it will be well worth it. Gather your organic rose petals, boil them until the color fades. Drain off the rosewater into a bowl and start off with 4 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil* in a separate glass bowl.
To melt the coconut oil*, stick it in the microwave for about 10 or less seconds. It is okay if it’s a little hot, add the coconut oil to the rose water, stir or blend well.
Lastly, add 1/2 cup of aloe vera juice*. Mix well, and pour into your spray bottle. Voila! You have a nice moisturizing spritz for you hair. *whispers* This can also be used on your skin!
We already mentioned the benefits of aloe vera juice* so what does rosewater contribute to the mix? Glad you asked! Rosewater is great for many including moisturizing and conditioning the hair as well, it also strengthens your hair and promotes growth. Oh and rosewater provides a shine, too! Oo la la!
Now coconut oil, the benefits are plenty, read about it here, it pretty much works miracles. It is one of the only oils that can penetrate the hair shaft strengthening the strand from the inside out.
4. Distilled water, your favorite conditioner, (oils are optional)
Cheat ALERT! This mixture is quick and simple. Just add your favorite conditioner (or leave in conditioner*) to your spray bottle filled with mostly water (distilled or purified).
You can go to a dollar store and purchase a bottle of conditioner for a dollar and some change. There are no exact measurements on how much conditioner to mix with your water that is completely up to you, just make sure there is more water than conditioner or the mixture will be too thick.
You may add olive oil* or vitamin E* oil to add more benefits. This spray is basically acting as a leave in say Yes to more moisture!
5. Raw honey, Biotin, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and Distilled Water
Get that spray bottle add one teaspoon of raw honey, squeeze four gel pills of biotin, one teaspoon of olive oil, and fill the rest of the bottle with distilled or purified water. And there you have it…
Raw honey is added due to it gloss properties and it promotes moisture and shine. The biotin, of course, promotes crazy hair growth. Usually, these are effective when taken by mouth, but why not physically put it on your hair and scalp? Major plus!
As always if you are allergic to any ingredient avoid using it, and if you are not sure about anything always consult your doctor first. All of these DIY sprays can be used as daily hair refreshers when your hair need its fix so enjoy!
