Color-Boosting Hairspray
Author: 
 
Ingredients
  • ½ c filtered water
  • 1 tea bag or 1 T loose leaf tea (organic; see notes)
  • 2 t organic sugar
Instructions
  1. Heat water and steep tea. Let tea steep 5-10 minutes before removing tea bag/leaves.
  2. While tea is still warm, stir in sugar until fully dissolved.
  3. When liquid has cooled, transfer to a small spray bottle.
Use:
  1. Use as you would normally use hair spray. I find that a lighter mist does better than a heavy mist, due to how natural hair sprays work.
Precaution:
  1. Since there are no preservatives in this hair spray, keep an eye on it and replace when it starts looking strange or every few weeks. Alternatively, I’ve found that adding a bit of vanilla extract can increase the shelf life due to its alcohol content. Plus it makes it smell extra yummy.
Notes
Blondes: Use chamomile tea

Brunettes: Use black tea

Red Heads: Use rooibos tea
