WHY THEY CALLED HIM CUPCAKE!!!!!

How a Bowl Should be Licked:

Want Beachy Hair? Try This DIY Salt Spray Recipe



I have came across this fabulous salt spray recipe on Glamour.com to bring out your hair’s natural bend and wave. It roughs up your locks without making them look like a puff ball.

What you need:
*A clean spray bottle. Make sure it holds at least 250 ml to 300 ml.
*250 ml of water. Try distilled or filtered if your tap water isn't the best on hair.
*Sea salt. Use the more finely ground stuff because it mixes easier and faster with the water. Use 1 tsp for each 250 ml of water.
*Coconut scented conditioner. It doesn't have to be expensive conditioner - Add this for the "beachy" scent and it helps counteract the drying that the salt will do. Use 1/2 a tsp - use more if you have extra dry hair.
*A dab of hair gel. Unscented, preferably—otherwise it will interfere with the coconut scent of the conditioner). Usually the cheaper brand are more runny and mix better."

Optional add-ins:
* Essential oils: If you have dry or coarse hair, this is a good add-in. They will help condition your hair and add some shine. Choose whatever scent you want - ylang ylang works great for sensitive skin and problem scalps. Rosemary is great to help deepen the color of brunette's hair and chamomile brightens blonds. Use 3-5 drops.
* Tea Tree Oil: Great for sensitive and oily scalps. If you have oilier hair, this is the best oil to add for you since it won't make your hair oilier or weigh it down. Use 3-5 drops.
* More sea salt - You can add a little more if you have oilier/thicker hair. The more salt you use, the more it will dry out your hair. BUT the more you use, the "beachier" your hair will look and the more hold there will be. If the recipe doesn't have enough salt for you, add 1/4 tsp at a time until you reach the desired level. Make sure to record your changes so you know how much to add when you want to make more!"

To do:
Add all your ingredients to the spray bottle and shake it until it mixes together. Any oils added will never fully combine well with the water so you'll have to shake it a little before each use. If your hair gel and/or conditioner don't combine you can try warming the mixture in the microwave (remove any metal pieces and don't use until cool!) to see if that helps - if it doesn't, you may have used too thick of a conditioner/gel."

I haven't tried it yet but will for sure!
