Kimberlily's defrizz spray

[kimberlily]

However, is it possibly 1 tsp jojoba rather than 1 tbsp? 1 tbsp seems rather high, but I have the recipe backed up on my other computer and won't be able to access it until the weekend.

You might be right. I didn't back up the recipe and I always have to look it up when I make it, so with the old LHC down I can't remember the exact ratio If you could look it up on the weekend and post here, I'd appreciate it

I find that if I use aloe juice instead of the gel (I like Fruit of the Earth) it smells off after a few days. I keep it in the fridge if the weather is warm (and it makes a lovely moisturizing summer refresher if you spritz it on your skin after coming in out of the sun!)

ETA: I also use it to detangle my daughter's hair, and for damp bunning. I go through it pretty fast

I use Fruit of the Earth 100% Gel Aloe Vera. Even though the bottle says "Pure. No Color Added." This gel has both stabilizers and preservatives in it.

Know, I need to find jojoba oil, to make this defrizz spray.

Opps Now. Sorry

I gotta chime in and say how good this spray is . I haven't used it in a while but it really works wonders on my hair when it's dry, dull, frizzy.

I use just water, aloe vera and coconut oil (instead of jojoba, cause my hair seems to like coconut better than jojoba).

My aloe gel (from a "natural" brand) also has preservatives and stuff, I think. But it works just fine

I love this recipe! Thanks for posting it again Kimberly. I use it all the time it's the best.

Hi Ms Kitty, I think that this would work for any hair type that just likes moisture and needs taming. If you can get away with spraying just water on and it responds nicely, then you'll likely get a good result with this too. The aloe can be drying to some people or the oil may not agree with your hairtype, but experimenting should help you figure that out.

Also, if your hair likes oils, it will like this. I couldn't mist with plain water because it gives me frizz, but the aloe and oil cause this to have the opposite effect for me. It makes my hair actually comb-able.

Yes I think this is why it works for me, the combinations are just right for smoothing my hair and bringing up the curl.

I used 1 teaspoon jojoba oil.

The aloe vera gel was just over 1 tablespoon and 2 tsp glycerin. I added distilled water to make 4 oz total liquid.

I could not get the yellow jojoba oil dispersed into the solution.

How do I get the oil to mix into the water solution?
