Homemade Concoctions
Kimmaytube Leave-in Recipe:
2 Tbs leave in conditioner (Giovanni, or Kinky Curly Knot Today work well)
2 Tbs aloe vera gel or juice (I get the organic kind from the health food store)
2 tsp jojoba oil
2 tsp castor oil
I mix all of this together and use on the girls and myself after I wash our hair. It helps me detangling and retain moisture. You can substitute any other oil for the two listed.
*We've also been working on creating our own line of products so I know exactly what is going on my babies' skin and hair but a commercial line is not yet available. We do need testers from time to time however.
