Materials
- 8 oz distilled water
- 2 tablespoons marshmallow root powder
- .5 oz bamboo extract
- .5 oz honeyquat
- 0.15 oz preservative
- 10 drops chamomile essential oil
Instructions
- Prepare the marshmallow infusion by combining the marshmallow root and water in a glass jar or bowl. Steep for 24 hours. Strain out the root using a fine mesh strainer and/or cheesecloth and set aside the liquid to use in the conditioner.

Notes
To apply, hold the spray bottle about 6-8 inches away from your head and spray the leave-in conditioner evenly throughout your hair. Focus on the mid-lengths to ends, where hair tends to be driest and most damaged. You can also lightly mist your scalp if it tends to be dry or if you have specific scalp issues.
