DIY Beachy Hair Vibes

✨Summer is coming to an end, but beachy hair vibes are always fun! 

✨ Most Beachy hair spray products contain toxin chemicals such as; synthetic fragrance, PEGs and Polysorbate.

✨Here is a easy DIY to get the same look from a product that doesn’t risk your health; 

🧴16oz glass spray bottle 

💦 1 ½ cups luke warm water

🥑 1 tsp avocado oil (coconut oil also works)

🧂 2 tsp sea salt (pink himalayan)

🌿 4 drops of essential oil   www.essentialblessing4u.com

Mix these ingredients into a spray bottle (I prefer glass, like this; https://amzn.to/3NBjzeW ) this also comes with a chalkboard label so you can write what is in the bottle. 

✨Spritz into hair and “scrunch” for that SoCal Beach Vibe!
