Coconut Milk Leave-In Conditioner Spray
The one formula in this section that specifically calls for light (diluted) rather than full-fat coconut milk, a deliberate choice, since full-fat milk's higher fat content would quickly clog a fine-mist spray nozzle.

If you can't find light coconut milk, dilute full-fat 1:1 with water yourself rather than skipping the dilution, the ratio matters more than the source product.
