Making Hair Products Results

So I made a batch of my first homemade conditioning mask. Hmmm, I will say I wasn't that successful. First off the smell was just okay--not horrible, but nothing that would make me say, "ohhh, this smells goooooood". I like products that smell yummy, I am a sucker for great smelling products so that is a work in progress. Secondly, I wasn't too thrilled with the consistency. It was really thick, which was nice, but felt like melted marshmallows! LOL. I was reviewing the recipe I created and I think I know where I went wrong. 

Despite this mishap I decided to test it out on my hair. I did not like it at all.....My conditioner had no slip (which I thought I covered with a particular ingredient), my hair felt a little tangled and I had breakage!! OMG breakage! Now, I have not had any breakage for the last four weeks since stepping up my game. I am not interested in going back to ground zero. So here I sit with my faithful Aphogee 2 min Reconstructor with added oils....hopefully I can turn back the clock. I am not going to give up though. I think if I keep at it and tweak my recipe I should have something good.
 

Later on that evening....
So I went back to my regimen and I am glad I did. I noticed such a difference in my hair. No breakage, great detangling and moisture. I am determined to make this "all natural" hair products thing work for my hair though. I also noticed that my new growth is soft as well.

I will keep working on it and post my results on my blog: Ebony Diamond. Check it out!
