You can use a mini trigger sprayer to carry travel-sized hair products. It’s easy to use and is super effective. Hair care can get really bulky. Hair products are really handy and effective to keep handy. You can even style your hair without the bottles. Carrying hair products can get heavy. It can be a hassle on your way to a business meeting or a weekend away.
All mini sprayers are not made the same. You will want to get a mini trigger sprayer that is leak proof to avoid messes. Grab one that has an adjustable nozzle, that can change the sprayer from a fine mist to a direct stream. These will work with hair products like leave in conditioner, detangler, and even styling spray. You can also check to see if it is made with a BPA free material, to see if it is effective, and see if it is the right size to take on the plane. You can also check if it meets the carry on size.
To kick things off, figure out what products you need to bring on your trip. If you leave your favorite products at home, you probably won't enjoy your trip. Start by filling a mini trigger sprayer bottle with a small amount of your favorite product. There is no need to fill it up completely. Leave about a quarter of space at the top to accommodate pressure build up along your trip, which will cause the product to leak. Creams and serums can be hard to spray, so you can thin the product with a small amount of water, if the product will allow it. Don’t forget to shake the bottle to evenly mix the product and water.
Before you spray your hair, be sure to test the sprayer on your hand or a tissue. if you have multiple sprayer, be sure to test for the spray pressure adjustment. You will want a fine mist for a hair refresh. You will want a firm stream to target dry ends of your hair, and for specific hair sections. Make sure the trigger sprayer is working properly and check the pressure to ensure the spray is steady so you’ll avoid and drips, or uneven bursts.
To begin, take mini trigger sprayer and place it 6 to 8 inches away from the hair. If the goal is overall hair refreshment, and for best results, do so in sweeping motions across the hair, focusing primarily on the mid lengths, and ends. If using a conditioner or a detangler, spray on damp hair directly after washing, and comb to detangle. For styling products, especially texturizing sprays, focus on specific areas such as the crown or ends for added volume and definition. Avoid the crown area to minimize product build-up as this area tends to get greasy.
After each trip, to promote longevity of the mini trigger sprayer, remember to clean it. After each trip, ensure you empty any remaining product and rinse the bottle and nozzle with warm water. If there is a clog in the sprayer nozzle, soak in warm soapy water for a few minutes, and use a toothpick to clear it. Allow all components to air dry for complete drying to prevent mold or any bacterial growth. For long-term storage, it is best to disassemble the sprayer and store it in a dry cool place.
Use your mini trigger sprayer with your travel size hair care essentials for an entire routine. To refresh hair between washes, mix water with a drop of an essential oil, like lavender or citrus. If you have curly or frizzy hair, a spray of water and leave in conditioner will help reactivate your curls and reduce the frizz. To distinguish this sprayer from other travel bottles, especially if you have several, label it.
