    If the heat is too high, it'll mess with the properties of the essential oils. I always wait until it cools down to 140-150. I use the same temperature when making soaps. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

    Okay...so I didn't have the candellila oil but I did have beeswax. I used 1/2 the amount (because I think it's thicker than the candellila) and followed the recipe w everything else & I didn't havr ess oil but it smells just fine w/o it. Just a light kind of nothing scent. I tried it on myself first to make sure it doesn't go white & crusty before trying it on my daughter's.
    So far so good. Best part is it definitely does NOT have my edges screaming!
    So far so good.

      Okay...so it's a day later. My edges are very fine (I'm a very short natural cut at 1/8" guard) so there wasn't much to hold, but I try everything on myself before my daughters hair (she's at 14" majority 4c at her crown & front). If it's a mess with mine, it's not much to wash out/fix. But for her it's a nightmare if I have to work it out. (I dabbed a little Murray's gel lock on the toothbrush because it's water soluble & isn't sticky & doesn't flake. I use the smallest amt mixed w vit e oil when I retwist her hair). The Murray's gave it a little more hold w/o melting more wax. I can see starting to tame her edges nicely w this.
      Still no flaking. Thank you!

    I just noticed the ingredients. Those are the same ingredients that I used for hair growth oil minus the wax. I do 50/50 of the oils and 6 drops per ounce of drops. I make lotion bars, and use beeswax.

      This ratio provides the right amount of hold for me, but you may need to add more wax if we have different hair textures. You can take the batch you’ve already made add place it back in a double boiler along with an additional teaspoon or tablespoon of wax depending on how much you think you need.
