Try not to make fun of me too much for this, but last week, I was in Beijing, and the unthinkable happened--i ran out of moisturizer. 4b natural hair + no moisturizer + no comprehension of Chinese = 
Then it hit me! I still had some mayo left over from dinner at Subway. So i ran to the bathroom, dampened my hair, and used the mayo as a leave in for a twist out 
It didn't turn out spectacular, but it did save me from looking like someone from the jungle. sooo i thought it would be fun to do a thread where we share tips to save each other from these types of unnecessary fiascos this spring.
Simply post your single most important tip for spring hair care for naturals below. I'll go through and select tips that most people think are simply off the chain (since this is a democracy, we'll go by posts with multiple thanks) and add your username and tip to this post for all to see (we all know nobody reads past the first page anyway
)
My Top Tip for Spring Hair Care:
Buy a beanie and carry it everywhere with you! If you have hair like mine, rain is not your friend. Your twistout will morph into a tangled fro with a quickness. If you have a cute beanie like this one i just picked up from Target today, you can save yourself a whole heckova lot of trouble
your turn

Product-related
Egyptjones: Hust Haves for Car: Larger jar of Ecostyler gel, black scarf to tie my hair down and a boar bristle brush. With these items, you can conquer just about any hair emergency!
Styling-related
darlingdiva: Carry some Goody Spin pins, bobby pins, or some type of hair clip at all times. If humidity or rain results in excessive poof and/or frizz, you can always create a fabulous pin-up.
cherryhair123: Don't be afraid to rewet your hair in the bathroom in an emergency-(for most) it "reactivates" the product or at least gives you a chance to make it back home with decent looking hair
