In the Mix-Braid Spray

Recently I have been extremely busy and travelling a lot. This has led to me wearing low maintenance hairstyles. I have been wearing different braided styles such as box braids, Ghana cane rows and twists.
When I have braids installed I always use a leave- in spray to keep my hair moisturised. I have started using my own DIY braid spray which is easy to make and also saves money. I have found that this particular mix reduces itching and prevents dryness.
Ingredients
Sweet Almond oil
Water
Leave in conditioner (Currently using As I Am Leave in Conditioner)
Rosemary essential oil
Lemon essential oil

Method
  1. Fill 1/3 of a spray bottle (100 ml) with Sweet Almond oil. This oil is a very light oil so it is perfect for preventing a greasy build up. The oil has conditioning properties and prevents moisture loss.
  2. Add 3 drops of Rosemary essential oil to increase circulation to stimulate growth, it also slows greying and reduces hair loss.
  3. Add 1 drops of lemon essential oil. Lemon oil was used more for fragrance.
  4. Next add 1/3 of your chosen leave in conditioner
  5. Finally 1/3 of water.
  6. Shake well and spray!

​Tips
Always use a carrier oil (e.g. Sweet Almond oil, jojoba oil, EVOO) to dilute essential oils. Never place undiluted essential oils on your skin. They can be harmful and can cause severe skin irritation.
This braid spray can last for one week, preferably keep it refrigerated. I like to use the spray at night before I go to bed to reduce the dryness in the morning.
