Hope everyone’s ready to celebrate the 4th with a bang!
Until then, I have a new reader recommendation’s post for inquiring heads.
One BLACKSTRANDS reader, Angela, recommended a homemade moisturizer that sounds great for everyday (or as needed) use. After a salon visit with a natural hair stylist, she picked up a few tips for creating her own moisturizing cocktail for at home upkeep.
check it out:
- 2 cups olive oil
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup vegetable glycerin
- 5 drops of essential oil (my favorites are lemongrass and lavender)
- pour all ingredients into a large spray bottle, shake, and spritz all over hair* The stylist also told me that if I want a deep conditioner, mix this in with whatever conditioner I use in the shower.
Just a little helpful hair relief from the scorching heat out there!
:: Hope this helps ::
Great post! This weekend, i’m going to clarify and follow up with a super deep DC. I’m going to add these products to my conditioner in hopes of making it more potent (lol) and i’ll see how they work. Wish me luck!
good luck!
