My FAVORITE Homemade Deep Conditioner

As you will come to find out, I LOVE making my own products.  As a matter of fact, I am working on my own business making natural hair and body products.  I am always telling people about my favorite homemade deep conditioner (DC).  Here is the recipe and the regimen I *usually* follow on the days I DC my hair.

My ingredients are:

1. Avocado
2. Coconut Milk
3. Honey
4. Water
5. Castor Oil
6. Tea Tree oil

First I scoop the avocado into the blender.

***I forgot to continue taking pictures of my process, but it is really easy.  I blame my anxiousness to use my fave conditioner on my forgetfulness. :)***

Next I microwave 2 tablespoons of honey with 3 tablespoons of water just until they are warm.  I add that to the blender and begin blending.  I use the "Puree" function.  Make sure you don't close the lid tightly because the warm water/honey mixture can cause it to pop off.  

After that is blended I add 1/4 cup of coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of castor oil (you can use any oil you want) and blend until smooth.  Then move the mixture to a container and I add 10 drops of tea tree oil (you can use any essential oil you want or omit it all together).

Mix it very well to make sure the essential oil is evenly distributed.  

Here is the final product.  Smooth, shiny and silky!

Now I just apply evenly through my hair, put on a plastic shower cap or conditioning cap and wait at least an hour.  Here it is on my hair.

This is my hair after rinsing out the DC and shampooing using Shea Moisture's Argan Oil & Raw Shea Butter bar soap.

I bought this product today at Walgreen's and decided to use this to condition.  Also here is a picture with it on my hair.  I put on a plastic cap again and will leave it on for 45 minutes.  

Here is my hair after detangling and rinsing.  The bioinfusion didn't allow for super easy detangling that some of my other products have.  It did feel good while I had it on and after I rinsed it out.

***Usually on days I DC with this mixture I also do my ACV rinse after this second conditioning.  I planned on doing it, but forgot.  I don't know what's wrong with me today. haha***

Then I sealed with a little Carol's Daughter Hair Balm:

I had planned on twisting it, but I am tired.  I think I will try dry twists tomorrow. 

I decided to add a little of Carol's Daughter Hair Milk after it dried some.

Try this homemade DC and I bet you will fall in love with it!
