Homemade Braid Spray

[Keedah]

Ok ladies....I got some kinky twists Sunday and would rather make my own moisturizing spray then buy some from the store. My routines pretty simple but here's some of the things I have in my cabinet...

Nexus Humectress
911 Leave In Conditioner
Olive Oil
Garnier Long and Strong Conditioner
Oyin Braid Pomade
Oyin Whipped Pudding



I was thinking of diluting the 911 with some water and maybe adding a little Humectress but Im up for more creative ideas.

Can I have some more recipes of a homemade spray please?

the Oyin would be nice to rub thru your hair a few times a week.

Is the 911 a protien conditioner? I wouldn't use that alot even if diluted. I would focus on moisturizing my hair while in them and when u get them out--do a nice protien treatment on ur hair.

I like to keep my concoctions simple

Water
Glycerin (not too much)
Oil (castor, olive...not too much)
Conditioner (cheapie like Suave or Nexxus--i like both)

 

[Okay]

bumping....

I know what you mean. Some of the braid sprays (eg. African Pride) are pretty oily, especially for daily use.

I might put braids in this weekend and I was expecting to use cheapie conditioner (Sauve) diluted with distilled water. I'd add glycerin if I had any. I figured I'd keep it simple though.
