What oils are best to avoid when making conditioner for course oily hair?

Thank you for the direct link I will be reading it today for sure, thank you That looks easy enough to make ,thanks I'll try that one tonight. Do you know what are the best oils to use for very course oily hair, or any particular oils I should avoid bc of my hair type?

Does anyone know have a good recipe there willing to share? My hair is very course and I want to try the all natural method and would like to try making a conditioner but don't know where to start on creating a recipe for making conditioner. ( yes this only be used on myself and no-one else)

With all that's been said, I'll just stick with paying the expensive prices of sun screen and not bother trying it. Thank you all for the info . Good nite

What do you mean by this is the stuff?

So what I'm gathering is, it shouldn't be made. If that's the case why are there so many DIY for making Sunscreen? Also what about an after sun care lotion made with aloe Vera oil, is that even possible either since sunscreen isnt possible as an DIY?

Here are 3 of the recipes I've found online.2oz zinc, 4oz shea, 4oz CO, 4oz carrier oil and 2 oz beeswax. 2. 1/4 cup beeswax, Shea butter and CO 2 tbsp zinc. 3. 90g CO 65g carrier oil, 28.5g beeswax, 27.5g Shea and 40 g zinc, I've adjusted the beeswax to put a little less since I know that...

I'm not using any lotion, I'm making it from scratch using beeswax, zinc oxide, apricot kernel oil, aloe Vera oil, refined shea butter, and coconut oil

Thank you for that idea, I never would have thought to try that, thanks I'm looking at Camden Grey right now for cedarwood, and there are 2 different types, which one is the best one, I don't really understand why EO have to have more then 1 type one 1st distilled another 2nd distilled etc...

I'll have to check out that Camden grey, I've never heard of them til this posting, are they EO only or also FO? And I'll definitely check out that other one you mentioned, thanks That's a good idea, only thing is what is the best way to figure out the best mixture, with like cedarwood EO and...

What brand EO you recommend that's not really expensive?

I thought about it, but every time I use EO in cp, it fades fast or the lye just eats it so I'm too scared to spend more money on EO considering how expensive it is compared to FO, unless you do you know for sure if EO won't be eaten by the lye or fade, I buy all my EO from plans therapy...

So I've looked at the 4 sites I buy FO from and I can't find a few specific FOs anyone know where I can find them at, I've been to wsp, rustic escentuals, brambleberry and natures garden. I looking for a straight plum FO, nothing with not not plum with floral not plum with other fruits...

OK thx, think I'll swing by walmart and pick up more lard and give this a try tonight after work, cross your fingers and wish me luck lol
