homemade detangler

I have waist length hair, so a leave-in conditioner / detangler is a necessity for me. When I got down to the last couple squirts in the bottle, I added it to my shopping list and was shocked when I looked at the shelf at the store and realized I’d been paying almost $3 for that little bottle. I consulted the internet for help and found you can make your own.

So I mixed up 1/8 cup of my regular hair conditioner with 1 cup very hot water. Then I just poured it into the old detangler bottle. That way I was able to re-use the bottle and my homemade stuff is properly labeled. I’ve been using it for a couple weeks now and it’s working just fine! Obviously the price difference depends on what kind of conditioner you use, but it’s substantial.
