A simple way to create a light conditioning treatment is by making rose water using a steeping method, which can then be used as a refreshing hair mist.
Simple Rose Water Conditioning Mist Method
Based on a common approach, you can prepare rose water suitable for use as a basic hair conditioner or refreshing spray by following these steps. This method involves steeping rose petals in hot water to extract their essence.
Materials:
- One cup of Rose Petals
- Two cups of Distilled Water
Instructions:
- Heat the distilled water until it is steaming hot, ensuring it is not boiling. One practical way to achieve this, as suggested, is to boil a kettle and then leave it to sit for several minutes before pouring.
- Place the rose petals in a heatproof container.
- Pour the steaming hot water over the rose petals.
- Allow the mixture to steep undisturbed until it reaches room temperature. This process allows the beneficial compounds and fragrance from the petals to infuse into the water.
- Once cooled, strain the liquid to remove the rose petals.
This resulting rose water can then be transferred into spray bottles which create a fine mist. It can be used as a light conditioning spray or rinse for hair.
