Simple Hairspray Formula for Winter Flyaway Hair
Inspired by Better Basics for the Home, by Annie B. Bond (Three Rivers Press, 1999.
The heat is on in our homes and offices, and the air outdoors is cold and dry. This can spell big trouble for our poor abused tresses: flyaway hair is everywhere! If your hair could use a little soothing help, try this one-ingredient hairspray. Unlike commercial hairspray products which often contain harmful toxic chemical ingredients, this is totally n/atural. It smells so fresh and clean, is super-simple to make and use, and works like a charm to tame those flyaway locks!
Find out the easy directions here:
INGREDIENTS
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
boiling water to cover
1. Place the rosemary in a coffee mug and cover with the boiling water. Allow to steep for several hours, then strain the liquid into a spray/spritz bottle.
2. Spritz onto dry hair.
Makes about 1 cup of spray. Will keep for a week, if refrigerated.

add your comment »Thank-you for this one. I once had a dog with allergies and the Vet recommended using this rosemary rinse for her itchy skin. Seems better than the lemon juice as for generations my family has use lemon juice to lighten hair in the summer months and it works great. Dark haired folks may not want the lightening effects of the lemon juice.
