Every fashionista tries to look perfect in everything and the hairstyle is no exception. One of the popular means for creating a perfect hairdo is a hair spray. However, many women refuse to use it, considering such a tool unsafe for the hair. But folk craftsmen have learned to create such a tool on the basis of natural components. Therefore, women who prefer "natural" cosmetics, it will be useful to learn how to make hair lacquer yourself.
Advantages of home hair varnish
Have you ever had a situation where, after using ready-made styling products, your hair became hard to comb or did it become "heavy", which had a negative effect on the volume of the hairdo? Or maybe because of the use of such a tool you have developed an allergy?
Nothing surprising. If you look at the chemical composition of the varnish, you can find many components that can provoke an irritable reaction of the scalp. Especially, if a woman has sensitive skin.
Having made the hair spray yourself, you, first, save your money, and secondly, you will be 100% sure of its safety, because it will not contain potentially dangerous additives.
The use of home hair varnish will minimize the risk of possible hair drying, which is not uncommon with frequent use of finished varnishes.
It is also important to exclude the possibility of getting all the same dangerous components of the finished varnish when it is sprayed into the respiratory tract. After all, even holding your breath, it is not possible to exclude the settling of small particles of varnish on the skin and mucous membranes.
Hair Varnish Recipes
Lacquer based on lemon juice
The preparation of hairspray for this recipe is the most popular. In order to make a varnish, you need one medium-sized lemon, previously well washed. Next, the peel of the lemon should be cleaned so that it does not leave the pulp, and squeeze the juice from the lemon itself in any accessible way. The juice is poured into a container into which a glass (200 ml) of pure water is added. You should also add lemon peel here. The resulting liquid should completely cover the skin.
The container with the prepared mixture is covered with a lid and hidden in a refrigerator for 5-7 days. At the end of this time, the house lacquer is almost ready. Lemon peel is thrown away, and the liquid itself should be poured into an empty container with a spray nozzle. The resulting varnish should be applied to clean hair, after which you can begin to lay them.

For this recipe you need to take half the rye bread. Bread is cut into small pieces, can be square, put in an iron container and pour 400 ml (2 cups) of warm water. The resulting mixture on low heat should be brought to a boil, then the fire is turned off, and the resulting broth is left to be infused and cooled. When the broth finally cools down, it should be filtered and poured into a prepared container for varnish.
The resulting home lacquer is ready for use. This recipe is perfect for women with dark hair color, as the varnish, cooked according to this recipe, will give a pleasant shade to the hair.
