I found this project on
pinterest, and I didn't just pin it, I actually tried it. It's homemade
hairspray. It only took three very simple ingredients: water, sugar, vanilla extract.
Boil water, take off heat. Add sugar and vanilla. Let cool. Add to a spray bottle. Viola! You've got hairspray!
I've used it the last few days, and love it. It's not as sticky as regular hair spray.
What I found that worked best for me, because this solution is wetter than store bought hairspray, is to spray it in my hair then curl it with my curling iron. Then spritz it one last time to set.
If you do not curl your hair, spray it before your final heating tool, then when all is finished give it one last spritz.
***The site that I got the pin from also warns not to use this if you have bee allergies, being it is made of sugar.***
Supplies:
End Result: (my hair is probably too dark to see)
