Essential oil wash recipes
Hi there I’m a few weeks in, I’m using water only as I never used styling products on my hair previously and only shampooed once or twice a week with cowashes as needed. Whilst I don’t mind the natural smell, I would like to start scenting my hair with natural oils/smells.
The wiki shows mostly flour/ vinegar recipes or recipes with ingredients that aren’t so easy to come by for me. And also I wanted to ask if there is a general ratio of oil to water mix? Does it depend on hair density/porosity?
Ingredients that are easily available to me: rosemary oil, lavender oil, lemons/limes, honey, vinegar. Any recipe recommendations please?
I have low density hair (a lot of scalp on show if my curls aren’t separated), 2c-3a curls if I allow it to naturally clump but I don’t have enough hair for that so I blow dry 80% to 2a-2b waves. I’m fretful of putting oil or honey on my hair as it weighs down very easily and I need to keep my strands light and separate to cover my scalp. But hoping diluted rinses and only applying to the ends might yield good results.
So please drop your recipes with the ingredients above and/or any tips :)
