I don't mean for it to be that long in between posts!

Eeek!

I don't feel too terribly guilty however. Since the last post, I've gotten through my first semester in library school, gotten through the Christmas season (complete with visiting child and handmade gifts), working on belated handmade Christmas gifts (LOL), working on a tablet woven band (finally had an A-HA moment), worked on the A&S office (still a long ways to go), and co-ran the 12th Night event. Among other things... :D

As an offering, here is a recipe for hair mist to calm the frizzies. Makes 4 oz.

2 tbsp. aloe gel or liquid
1 tsp. lightweight oil (jojoba, sweet almond, grapeseed, whatever works for you)
a drop or two of essential oil for fragrance if desired
distilled water to 4 oz. mark

Shake before each use.

I used a small measuring cup that had ounce marks to mix the oils and then added clean water up to the 4 oz mark. Then I poured this into the spray bottle.

Note: If you buy organic aloe gel or liquid, it may not have the requisite preservatives to keep it from turning after a month. Keep it in the fridge.
Heavier oils may clog the spray nozzle.
Some people add a teaspoon of glycerine.

ETA: Oops! I meants TWO tablespoons of aloe. BTW, this isn't my recipe, it's available from the Long Hair Community forums. :)
