How to make Hair Conditioner

Recipe

Hair Conditioner

4 Tablespoons of Soap Crafters Conditioning Pellets
2 Tablespoon Thickener
40 oz. water
2 Tablespoons of Nature's Jelly
2 Tablespoons of Avocado or Soy Oil
1/2 tsp. fragrance
Color
The appropriate amount of the preservative of your choice.

Dissolve conditioner pellets in 12 oz of warm water. This can take as little as 3 hours but I usually let mine sit overnight to make sure everything is fully dissolved. Make sure it sits in a warm place.
After it has fully dissolved, heat 28 oz of water to 140 degrees. While you water is heating, mix the dissolve conditioner pellets with a stick blender. (your mixture will get very white and look almost like cream.) When your water reaches the right temp, using a stick blender to mix with, slowly add the thickener to the water while mixing with the blender. You want to do this like you’re making gravy, add it slowly so you don’t get lumps. Usually by the time I am done adding the thickener, the mixture is already quite thick. If it’s not, stir by hand until it gets thick.
Add your preservative, Nature’s Jelly, oil, scent and color (if desired) to the dissolved conditioner. Mix well.
Then use a stick blender to blend the conditioner mixture, into the thickener/water mixture.
*** You can scent and color your whole batch or wait and individually scent smaller batches. However, the color works best if added earlier in the process as mentioned above.
