Hi, Everyone!!
I was checking some sites out earlier today and realized (again) that I should/could be making my own hair products for my natural hair. I came across a few sites that I wanted to share with you all.
- You can buy Wholesale Shea Butter from this site: http://www.sheabutterweb.com/ (as well as Black soap, if you're interested.)
- Find several oils (essential oils, vegetable oils, etc.) here: Oils by Nature
- Do you like mixing your own products but don't have containers to store them in? No problem!! Buy them here, at a LOW PRICE! www.specialtybottle.com
2 parts coconut oil, 1/2 part shea butter, and 1/2 part castor oil. I came across this online today and plan to try it in the next week or so.
Feel free to share your own recipes or anything else you'd like to add :) We can all learn from each other!

Here's a wonderful recipe I use for my homemade avocado deep conditioner
1 ripe avocado (chop up)
3 tbsp mayo
1 1/2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp jojoba oil
blend well!! (use a food processor or blender)
Apply to damp hair. Leave on your hair 30 minutes to an hour or longer if desired
rinse
Hope you all enjoy it!!
Thank you so much for sharing!! I'm printing this out to use later :) Sounds really good!
Hi KeetaRay: I was really big into making hair products at first. I've kinda gotten away from it but I still make some things from my hair. There are a lot of recipes you can find on my blog and if I can share with you, I did a post on online wholesale last year that I'll include the link to.
Also like NaTuRaLbEaUtY81 I make a similar avocado deep conditioner (no measurements though) only I use olive oil in place of coconut and jojoba oil.
I hope you can find some helpful info on my blog. Thanks much!

. . . I meant "for my hair" lol :-)
Oh, and I don't know if you use black soap but I made a shampoo using the bar over the weekend. I absolutely LOVE it and I think I found my staple shampoo. There is also a recipe for this on my blog that I posted last week. I didn't follow that one exactly though.
Hi CallaLily!!
I'm definitely going to check out your blog! I haven't used black soap in awhile but was thinking of trying it again. People seem to have really good results when they use it.
Hey, I just saw your recipe over at agrlcanmac.com. I recently heard of a popular mix on nappturality.com, it's Moe's SheAloe and I must say, I've been luvin it for my daughter. You can see pics here at my lil bloggerookski (thecurlworld.blogspot.com). But basicly u cream the shea and oil first, then add the aloe vera gel. The consistency is soo soo smooth. Hope this helps someone the way it's helped me. I plan to try yours too. Have a great day.
