Tips
Let the mixture cool for 5 to 10 minutes before adding essential oils to retain their therapeutic benefits.
Conditioner bars usually dry within 2 to 3 hours, but can be left overnight.
Store the conditioner bars in an airtight container out of direct sunlight for up to one year.
To use, shampoo hair normally, then massage the conditioner bar into hands or directly onto hair, and rinse.
Common carrier oils include fractionated coconut oil, sweet almond oil, olive oil, and jojoba oil.
