Ladies:

What's in your spray bottle(s)?

For what do you use the spray bottle(s)?

What tips can you share for keeping your mixture fresh?

Thanks in advance for sharing!

 

[Diva_Esq]

I'll start-

What's in your spray bottle(s)? 1 has lacio lacio & water (for rollersets & some braidouts. Another one has water & my favorite moisturizing conditioners (basically, I take the leftover conditioner that I can't get out that's at the end of a bottle, put a little hot water in the bottle, swish it around until it all becomes liquid & put that into a spray bottle for bunning and spritzing.

For what do you use the spray bottle(s)? rollersets, braidouts, twistouts, bunning

What tips can you share for keeping your mixture fresh? I am actually interested in keeping that mildew smell away, so any tips are appreciated.

I have water, GVP Cond. Balm, and EVOO in my spray bottle. I use it for twistouts/braidouts and rollersets.

ETA: I don't have a prob keeping it fresh cause I make it in small batches and once I've used it up I make another small batch.

I am in braid extensions and I have a little Giovanni Direct which I didn't like too much and Africa's best liquid mayonaise which i didn't like to much either, so I put 1/4 giovanni direct and 1/4 africas best liquid leave in mayo and 1/2 water and it is a great moisturizer my hair is very soft. Who knew mixing two products i don't really like to much for the sake of using them would create such a great moisturizer!

 

[mariofmagdal]

Coconut Oil, Aphogee Vitamin Leave In, and Aphogee Green Tea/Keratin. I mainly spray it on my daughter's hair at night when I moisturize her hair before bed. (this is new for me, not sure how it's helping)

Mine has a blob of Knot Today, and blob of aloe vera gel, and I fill the bottom of my container with my Suave Naturals Strawberry conditioner. The rest is filtered water. I wet my hair with this mix in 4 sections every morning, lightly detangle, and then bun my hair. It is my way of having a smooth wet bun every morning, without having to immerse my head in the shower every day. It also helps the comb glide through my hair and I'm 72 weeks post.

I have just water in one which I use for my KCC! In the other I have Suave Almond and Shea butter conditioner, water, and shea butter which I use for a moisturizer!

 

[MyAngelEyez~C~U]

Infusium 23, wheatgerm oil, glycerin, and water. oh yeah, I use it for my braids, and I add a vit e oil.,or nothing, my bottle is really small, 6oz.

Does the shea butter stay liquid? Mine is pretty thick.

 

[upliftedjw]

I have a mix of Aloe vera juice, suave naturals coconut conditioner, EVOO, Rosemary oil, peppermint oil, and tea tree oil to help keep it fresh (it has anti microbial n anti bacterial benefits). My next bottle I'll be adding Aphogee Keratin green tea.

I'm in kinky twists now so that's what Im mainly using it for.

bumping for more responses

 

[bkprincesa]

2 pumps of Garnier Fructis Leave-In, 2 capfuls of olive oil, and the rest is water.
I use it as a detangling spray when I comb my hair each morning/after washing my hair.

 

[brucebettye]

I have only one spray bottle and it contains scurl and water. This works wonders for my hair.

 

[Bronxcutie]

Water, glycerine, coconut oil, and black rose oil. I use it for braidouts, buns, pin curls, and rollersets. I have decided to transition so I guess I'll be using it a lot more.

 

[Arian]

Ladies, can I bump this for the 2012? I posted the other day about how I finally found a homemade spritz that works for me and I lied!! That ish made my hair feel weird the 2nd time I used it. I need some recs, please. Something consistent would be nice!

I tried: water, glycerin, grapeseed oil, and AO Honeysuckle Rose...worked the first time, but not the 2nd. My hair seems to hate conditioner, oil...and it has a love/hate relationship with glycerin.

What tips can you share for keeping your mixture fresh? I make really small batches when I don't want to add a preservative. The batches are so small that I have to remake every week

1 - Olive Drench with Oatstraw, Horsetail & Nettle
1 - Shi Naturals black Tea Rinse

[Ann0804]

What's in your spray bottle(s)? leave-in conditioner and water

For what do you use the spray bottle(s)? daily moisturizing of my hair/scalp

What tips can you share for keeping your mixture fresh? I use a 2 oz bottle, so I usually only have the mixture for a week before I have to make up a new batch. If the spray bottle needs to be washed I just rotate it with another 2 oz bottle.

 

[LaidBak]

In one, grapeseed oil and tap water. This is my go-to spritz.
In the other, Aphogee pro vitamin leave in, SAA, and Panthenol powders.

 

[Louisex3]

when you guys mix oil in with your spray doesn't it just sit on top?

and i only have glycerine + water in mine
thinking of incorporating some aloe vera into it,

Yes. That's why you shake it up before you spritz.

 

[SimJam]

aloe vera juice .... it stays in the fridge

 

[KiWiStyle]

aloe vera juice .... it stays in the fridge

This is why I don't add AVJ to my mixture. I have one with just plain water as a refresher and another with vegetablr glycerin and rose water but I'll be adding my HE touhably smooth leave-in and safflower oil to it today, alone it's not moisturizing enough.

 

[SkySurfer]

Current Braid mix:Water, grapeseed oil, sweet almond oil, chi keratin mist, alberto balsam go fresh conditioner, a bit of ORS replenishing conditioner.

I want to simplify this mix, so for the next batch i may look into removing one of the conditioners and one of the oils.

 

[mamaore]

1/2 cup of Distilled water
10 ml of AVJ
a glob of AOHSR

Shake together and spritz as my watery moisturizer before appliying any creamy moisturizer when I bun.

This mix lasts for 7 days and I use it twice daily.
