I would like everyone's opinions and advise on natural hairsprays, gels, etc. What do you use to keep the frizzies down and every hair in place when going out? Thanks!

This book feels good in your hands. The paper is heavyweight, and the illustrations flow perfectly.

Anything I don't make myself as far as haircare goes, I buy from Aubrey Organics. Good stuff.

I use the Aubrey Organics hairspray. My hair is almost always in a ponytail, so I just need a couple of quick sprays to keep it in place.

OK, if you really want to go "natural", grapefruit juice works well as a setting lotion. Dip the comb in the juice, comb it on hair, roll. OK, those instructions are left over from the 60's. But maybe grapefruit juice in a spray bottle, and spritz some on?
I can't currently find the book that had the information about grapefruit juice as hair control. It may be that you dilute it, like you would for lemon juice or vinegar rinse. I would think that you'd have to, since it would be about the same pH as lemon juice (maybe somewhat more neutral).

What about hair gel?? DH and I use hair gel everyday to tame our thicker dark curly hair. His is real thick and very curly and very short- mine long and I use about a dime size everyday.

Some really nice hair products
Hi Amy,I am with a company that has certified organic personal care products...just so you know, so I guess I am not an unbiased opinion.
We have some really nice products.
You might want to consider our hair repair product:
I use it on my hair after I have towel dried it. My hair feels great and it works well. Also we have hair gel that is very nice. If you care about using extrememly clean products take a look at all of our ingredients lists...that's the truth telling of a product. You have to read the ingredients list.
If you are interested you can look at all our products at:

I have put in the information about the hair repair below.
Good Luck in your search.
Regards,
Erin
