What kind of rosewater can i mix with (jojoba,coconut oil)to spray on my hair for moisture,can i use the one used for cleaning the face?
 
I wouldn't reccomend using facial rosewater because many brands, such as Keihl's contain alcohol. If you really want to use it however, you may be better off going to the flower shop & purchasing dry petals. Then mix with distilled water.

Rose hydrosol is wonderful in homemade skin care products. It can be used by itself as a toner, used to moisten a mask, or used in place of water in lotions or cosmetics recipes. Rosewater stimulates the skin, heightening the blood flow. Experts disagree about using it on extraordinarily sensitive skin. Rosewater controls and balances sebum production, making it useful for both dry and oily skin. It can balance and restore the skin's Ph and helps tighten pores. Its antibacterial properties help fight acne giving troubled skin a gentle, rather than a harsh treatment. It is reputed to be useful in the treatment of all sorts of dermatitis. Suzanne Catty recommends blending Rose Hydrosol with Cistus Hydrosol as an anti-wrinkle treatment.
