Coconut Sea Salt Hair Texturizing Spray DIY Recipe

Coconut Sea Salt Hair Texturizing Spray DIY Recipe I live by the mountains but my heart belongs to the ocean. I love the humidity of living near the ocean. I love the magic things it does to my hair. I live in the arid desert of Utah now and my hair has been struggling without the humidity. But more than humidity, I miss the salt in my hair. I love the texture the ocean brings to my tresses. So I've got a simple solution to give me that beach babe hair. Homemade Coconut Seas Salt Hair Texturizing Spray. Not too long ago I ordered some hair products and got a bottle of Sea Salt Spray for free. I was thrilled because I love salt spray. HOWEVER, I am super allergic to smells...and this stuff stunk.

Donut with Sprinkles Hair Clip!

Donut with Sprinkles Hair Clip! Doughnuts are adorable, and this one is calorie free! Great for Crazy Hair day or just a fun way to wear your hair anytime! I used pink hot glue sticks and real sprinkles. You'll also need an alligator clip for the backside A silicone baking mat and a heat tool are super helpful too! And a sock bun on your head! Put a pink stick in your hot glue gun. Use a baking mat as the surface for melting on. These mats are genius...I always keep one with my craft stuff! Squeeze out a generous amount of glue on the mat...in a donut shape. Then I used my embossing heat tool to melt all the glue together, since it doesn't quite melt with just the gun. Melt it smoothly...let cool slightly. Then dump on some sprinkles! Let it cool completely, or stick it in the fridge for a few. Then hot glue a clip on the backside. Just clip it on your bun and you are golden! You look like a delicious donut! Sure to get many compli...
