Nothing let’s you know summer is almost here more than hot, humid weather. You know the kind that’s so stuffy and sticky that it makes your hair extra frizzy, dry, and tangled just by spending some time outside?
That’s the type of weather to make you completely shy away from wash and gos, twists, and ponytails on a hot day. I understand where you’re coming from, but let me tell you, there’s no need to do that! With a quick touch-up, all your hot-day hair woes will be a thing of the past!

Benefits of Ingredients:
Aloe Vera Juice controls frizz, relieves itchy scalp, and leaves hair undeniably smooth and shiny. It’s important to include in the DIY refresher spray because it help to soften and re-hydrate dry and shrunken curls.
Rosewater promotes hair growth, reduces shedding, and has anti-inflammatory properties that heal and soothe the scalp. It’s important to include in the DIY refresher spray because it soothes and cools your hair and scalp on super hot days.
The leave-in conditioner that I personally like to use is Kinky-Curly Knot Today Leave-In Conditioner and Detangler because it intensely moisturizes the hair without weighing it down, and makes it more manageable by loosening all knots and tangles.
And lastly, there is no better way to hydrate and replenish your hair than by using plain ol water.
