It's a family event keeping our hair moisturized in this dry winter months. In today's video, the girls and I show you how we create our Moisturizing Hair Spritz. We use this spritz at least every two days or as needed. Whenever we feel that our hair is dry and needs a quick boost of moisture,   spritz! spritz! Goes the spray bottle. *** We keep our bottles in the fridge to preserve it. Watch to see how we create our spritz:     Share what is in your spray bottle.

Tyrika,  owner of Mainelement , was the host of this program and she did a fabulous job making everyone feel welcome.          I always like it when there is a product swap at any Natural Hair event. If you ever go to an event, make sure to bring products that do not work for you; remember one person's product No-No is someone else's holy grail.    Meeting some of my subbies was the hi...
