DIY - Hairspray

I am big on DIY items, especially those that are less damaging for the body. Hairspray is full of chemicals and such, therefore I finally decided to blog about the DIY hairspray. Simply use a misting spray bottle that you have sitting around. Boil 1/2 cup of water and when bubbly, add a minimum of 2 teaspoons of sugar. For those who wish to have a stronger hold, go for a tablespoon of sugar. This hairspray will last for a week. If you wish to double the shelf life, you can add a bit of alcohol and it will last for two weeks. 

After the sugar has fully dissolved, pour into the spray bottle and store it into the fridge for 20 minutes or so. When spraying, be sure to spray in thin layers because it is not your typical hairspray. You can maximize the hold by spraying more layers after waiting for the previous to dry.
