Inspired by @MeaWea I decided to oil rinse with babassu oil for the first time ever. Hot water has to be used or white lumps will be stuck in the hair (higher melting point than coconut oil). The oil does have a slight smell when heated.
I re twisted a section of my hair using
Oyin Handmade Greg Juice, Cortez Moroccan rosewater + Palo Santo essential oil mix on scalp and hair
Baba Ramdev’s Divya Kesh Taila on scalp only
Qhemet Biologics Cocoa Tree Detangling Ghee
AfroVeda Hemp Seed Lock Twist & Roll Butter
I forgot to post here last night that I used Bel Nouvo Coco Castor Hair Pudding sealed with SSI Coriander Fig Balm. My hair still feels very soft tonight so I'm not touching it.
Babassu oil is not good for oil rinsing, unless you have oily hair. Woke up to semi-rough hair, meaning it dissolved my sebum/oil balance. I will use it for dry hair only.
Next on the list: unrefined sesame oil. I suspect it will leave my hair greasy, like olive oil does.
I have one section left to re twist, but am feeling lazy. I misted Palo Santo EO+Rosewater + Oyin Handmade's Grg Juice all over scalp and hair. Then added a tiny amount of Qhemet Biologics Cocoa Tree Detangling Ghee to that section.
Sesame oil alone, no bueno. It worked OK for finger-detangling, but too light, slightly greasy without being conditioning, and my nape started tangling after my hair dried. I think I am done with oils lighter than hempseed oil.
