Right now, I'm using my ninja prep blender to mix suave shea butter and almond conditioner, evoo, and honey together. This is my deep conditioner recipe.
 
Aloe Vera, distilled water or rose water, glycerin. If it's just water alone I'll make the concoction acidic by adding a few drops of acv. This is for a daily spritz.

For my homemade deep conditioner it involves honey, jojoba oil, coconut cream, aloe vera juice and hibiscus powder (if I have it).
 
I make a whipped shea butter with...
Coconut oil, almond oil, castor oil, vitamin e, argan oil, grape seed oil, and of course shea butter. My hair eats it up! She loves it :)

I make whipped shea butter with: coconut oil, essential oils like orange oil and rosemary oil and shae butter.
I make my moisture spritzes with:
1) AVJ, water and VO5 Moisture milk conditioner.
3) AVJ, water, infusium 23 and kids shea butter detangling lotion (or any other leave-in I'm using up).

I recently make a whipped mango and avocado butter concoction:
Mango butter, Avocado butter, coconut oil, Argan oil (1tbspn) and orange and rosemary essential oils! Really smooth but seals well! And my hair is soft with this! :)
 
For moisturizing, a spray bottle with water and a few drops each of lavender, rosemary and bay laurel essential oils.
 
MY whipped shea butter includes coconut oil, evoo, castor oil, and sunflower oil. Thinking about adding aloe vera gel and/or glycerin.

My spray bottle is water, evoo, and glycerin.

For my pre-poos (just to get rid of conditioner), I use conditioner, honey, aloe vera gel, and evoo.
 
Water, infusium 23, aloe vera ,jojoba oil, couple drops of peppermint oil, teaspoon coconut oil, and a little bit of nettle tea...in spray bottle

Is there an easy whipped shea butter concoction someone can suggest? I'm looking to add minimal items for simplicity. I just need to get rid of this shea butter that's collecting dust.
 
I mix my Shea butter with various oils then add aloe Vera gel and ic fantasia gel. This is THE BEST concoction ever. It's heavy enough for twisting but not greasy and it's extremely moisturizing!
 
I like these threads..they can be very informative. For dc treatments...Lately tigi honey and oatmeal (yes, it's an instant cond.) mixed with lekair cholest. cond. (i like to use this with pretty much any mix I make) more honey (raw,organic) oils/jojoba, wheat germ, castor, coconut (when I have any) ess. oils lavendar, sweet orange, rosemary, and eucalyptus. I also add herbs such as milk thislte/marshmallow root.

ETA: The above mix has been really good but....I'm in search of something more moisturizing (for type4 i guess)...but any suggestions??/TIA I guess it's possible I need to clarify/chelate though.
