1/4 cup jojoba oil
1 tablespoon coconut oil
2 tablespoons white clay (kaolin or China clay)
1/2 cup water
Heat together the
jojoba and coconut oils until the coconut oil has
melted. This doesn't take long, perhaps 1 to 2
minutes. Combine the melted oils with the clay
and water, and stir well, then pour into a clean
container and label.
To use: Wet hair
and pour a small amount into your palm
(approximately 1 tablespoon). Massage thoroughly
into your hair and scalp. Wrap your head with
plastic and cover with a towel turban style. Let
the conditioner sit on your hair for 10-15
minutes, then shampoo as usual. You may have to
shampoo twice to remove the conditioner. If the
mixture separates between uses, simply run hot
water over the closed container to remelt the
coconut oil and shake gently to mix.
