Creamy Shea Butter Conditioning Mix


When you need a little extra conditioning to your hair or simply want to incorporate some very beneficial natural ingredients into your hair regime, I would greatly suggest experimenting with your own deep conditioning treatments. The following treatment includes two of my favorite natural ingredients, Shea Butter and Coconut Oil. I combined these ingredients plus a few additional with my conditioner of choice. Any conditioner can be substituted, so I would recommend using what’s best on your hair. Also, I did not include any measurements in this recipe. It can vary depending on how much hair you have or have much of each ingredient you find works best for you. Just eyeball it and add or subtract where you see fit. You really can do no damage by adding too much of anything.

Again, this recipe is great when you want to give your strands some much-needed love. Add your favorite natural ingredients and essential oils to make your own personalized deep conditioning treatment. Here’s my recipe

Shea Butter
Coconut Oil
Cholesterol
Aubrey Organics Jojoba & Aloe Desert Herb Conditioner
Rosemary essential oil

Shea Butter & Solidified Coconut Oil

Directions: Add your desired amount of shea butter and coconut oil into a small microwavable container. Microwave until fully melted. Next add your conditioner, the cholesterol, and essential oil if desired. Mix until well blended. Use a mixer if needed. Put the mixture in the freezer for about 10 minutes. This will make the mixture creamier.  Give the mixture one final mix with a spoon then apply to your hair. I would recommend leaving it on for at least 30 minutes and covering with a plastic cap. Good Luck. Stay Natural & Beautiful!
