Re-melt conditioner bar?

[Helle]

Hi all,
My first post here. I'm new to making my own soaps and conditioners. I made a conditioner bar that is way to greasy for my hair, and after comparing the recipe i followed to other conditioner bar recipies I found it has almost the double amount of butters and oils. So my question is: can I melt the finished product and add more BTMS and e-wax. I understand i need to re-apply the heat sensitive ingredients such as scent and preservative. But will it work at all or should I just use it as a body bar instead?
The recipe is basically

Cocoa Butter 30%
BTMS 25 30%
Cetyl Alcohol 10%
Almond oil 10%

Honeyquat or Glycerin 10%
Panthenol 5%
Silk protein 5%
preservative
Scent

Yes, you can remelt. You only need to add more preservative if you exceed the max temperature for that when you remelt.

Thank you! I remelted today and added much more BTMS and Cetyl Alcohol, and it is firming up much better. I will test it tomorrow, I'm sure it is much lighter on the hair now

Thanks again
It is PERFECT now
I' doubled the amount of BTMS 25 and tripled the amount of Cetyl Alcohol, I also added Candelia wax to make a harder bar, and now it is just like I want it for my hair type witch is rather fine.
Note to self: make sure to check the hair type a recipe is designed for
