How to make a hair growth spray at home?
Folk cosmetology offers several recipes for preparing a product, the regular use of which activates hair follicles and accelerates the growth of curls.
The most effective of them are considered to be the following:
- Squeeze the juice from a whole lemon and take 8 tablespoons of the resulting liquid. Dilute this juice with 2 glasses of distilled water and add 2 tablespoons of vodka to it. If you use pure alcohol instead of vodka, you must first dilute it with water taking into account the ratio of 1:3. Also, if you wish, you can add 4-5 drops of essential aromas, such as rosemary and ylang-ylang, into the future spray. Shake the prepared product thoroughly and put it in the refrigerator for about a day. After 24 hours, the spray can be used by applying daily to clean and damp strands;
- prepare a decoction of any medicinal plant, for example, sage, chamomile, calendula, or a collection of these herbs. If these components are missing, you can use ordinary mineral water. Take 50 ml of this liquid and add to it the contents of one ampoule of any B vitamin, which can be found in every pharmacy, as well as one whole ampoule of liquid aloe preparation. To enhance hair growth, it is recommended to add a little nicotinic acid to this composition, however, you should act very carefully with this component, as it can provoke severe allergic reactions.
To exclude the possibility of an allergy, before preparing such a spray, it is necessary to conduct a skin sensitivity test at home. To do this, apply a couple of drops of “nicotine” to an area of sensitive skin behind the ear or on the bend of the elbow and observe the reaction throughout the day.
If the skin in this area does not swell or redden, you can safely use this product. If you feel pain or discomfort, it is better to avoid using nicotinic acid. Under such circumstances, it is better to take pepper tincture instead.
To give the spray a pleasant aroma, add 1-2 drops of an essential product of rosemary, thyme, sage, ylang-ylang, fir or pine and use it like any other similar product:
- finally, the third recipe for preparing a spray for hair growth is as follows: combine medicinal plants such as calendula, nettle, burdock, mint, chamomile, St. John's wort and string in equal proportions. Take about a gram of these herbs, add a cinnamon stick and 3 pieces of cardamom to it. Pour these ingredients into 300 ml of hot water. Wrap the container with a warm cloth and let the broth brew well. When this liquid has cooled, add a bottle of ginseng tincture with alcohol to it and stir.
Close the jar with the miracle cure and put it in the refrigerator for storage.
Immediately before use, pour the required amount of the composition into a spray bottle and add the contents of one ampoule of nicotinic acid.
Just as in the previous recipe, before using it you should conduct a skin sensitivity test and, if necessary, replace it with pepper tincture.
Apply the prepared spray to clean, damp hair every time after washing, and the growth rate of your curls will pleasantly surprise you!
Making a hair strengthening spray
This product will give your curls a natural shine in a short time and make them healthy and well-groomed. Take 2 tablespoons of dried chamomile flowers and 500 ml of water and prepare a medicinal decoction. When the decoction is ready, cool it and strain, then add 10 drops of any essential aroma and 40 drops of flaxseed oil.
Shake all ingredients very well and place in the refrigerator for storage. Strengthening spray, unlike the previous ones, is best applied to clean and dry strands, and this can be done up to 4 times a day.
Hair detangler
The problem of tangled strands and tangles is familiar to many girls. Often, while combing, representatives of the fair sex experience severe pain that becomes impossible to tolerate. To prevent this from happening, prepare your own wonderful product that effectively makes combing your curls easier and makes them silky.
In a small saucepan, mix a teaspoon of medicinal plants such as chamomile, mint, string, nettle and green tea, and pour it all with a glass of water.
Place the pan on the stove, bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes. Cool the prepared broth to room temperature, strain and add 3-4 drops of any essential product to your taste, for example, bergamot or rosemary. Apply this liquid immediately after washing to clean and damp hair.
Heat Protectant Spray Recipe
Most girls use hairdressing equipment such as a hair dryer, curling iron, straightener, curling iron, and so on every day. All of them affect our curls through very high temperatures, which destroys the hair structure and generally has a detrimental effect on it.
To protect your hair from such exposure, before using a hair dryer and other similar devices, you should apply a special thermal protectant to your hair strands. You can prepare it yourself at home using the following recipe: squeeze the juice from one whole lemon.
Add a mug of water, stir this liquid, put it on the stove and boil until about half of the original volume remains. After this, let the composition cool and pour it into a spray bottle. Before any thermal treatment, including blow-drying your hair, always apply this product to your hair.
Modern sprays perform a protective role, make combing easier, and prevent hair from tangling. Cosmetic brands produce hair protection products with different principles of action. You can make a spray similar to a store-bought one yourself at home.
Spray is a special liquid poured into bottles with a dispenser. The difference between hair spray and other hair care products is its ease of application. The spray is sprayed directly onto dry hair and does not need to be rinsed.
Hair sprays at home should be used regularly. The caring liquid instantly moisturizes dehydrated hair and thereby makes combing easier.
Almost all sprays, regardless of the manufacturing method, are water-based and emit a pleasant aroma.

The task of a good moisturizing spray is not only to add external shine, but also to restore brittle trunks by filling the porous structure.
