- Part 4 of Hebrew/African Black Soap. The recipe for this soap was one I got from you tube and was not the authentic way to make the soap, but it is still awesome!
The next batch of Hebrew/African Black Soap I make will be the authentic way, by producing pot ash (lye) from the ashes that are made from the materials that are burned that go in the soap.
I have watched many soap making processes on UA-cam, your quality is right up there with the African sisters. Awesome job!
Hello. You have a lovely spirit. I don't even remember how I came to discover your videos today but I am glad that I did. Can't wait to see more. P.S. I am a soap maker too! Yeaaah!
Thank you Ma'am for this amazing video series. I have seen other soap making videos but yours helped me work my curiosity into confidence! I have been looking for something I can craft for family, friends and the folks at church. Go with love and peace! ☀⭐🌙
your skin is amazing by the way! I love this method. Thank you for your hard work and spreading this to everyone!!
Thank you! And thank you for watching.
Thank you,you make it so simple ❤
You're welcome 😊

Dorethea Williams You are welcome and thanks for watching.

What a wow 😍😍😍💯💯
Thanks for the detailed videos , it really helps ❤️
Just smiling through out... love your spirit!
Thank you for the teaching
Am really inspired today thank you mummy.
Potash is the real way to make black soap without lye
Yes, I know I stated that up above.
thank you so much ive learned because of you!!
FINALLY! Someone who knows how to make real, true, traditional AUTHENTIC black soap!!! At least from what I know! lol Thank you so much because the ones in stores are just NOT real!
But it's not Authentic African Black Soap. She even mentions in another comment, that it is not the Authentic Version, but it is just what she knew at the time. But it was very close. I've been looking around trying to find a true, authentic video on it. The ones that are authentic (that I've found so far), doesn't go into a whole lot of detail unfortunately. I would really love to learn how to make this traditionally.
I thought that these ingredients are in authentic Black Soap. What ingredients are in real black soap?
+Jacqueline Affinito The ingredients are fine. But true/authentic Black African Soap doesn't use man-made lye. That's why I said it was very close though. Authentic Black African Soap uses the ashes to draw out the Potassium in it, to create a Potash. That Potash is similar to KOH (slightly different) and is used to saponify the soap (instead of using man-made lye). I'm just not sure how 1 determines how much potash to use, instead of using the lye. That's what I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out.
Shalom! I'm going to have to try this.
+latishea84 You will love it! So good for the skin.
Shalom Mother. I would love to learn from you about this soap making. It is a million others with this video but you have been the only other Hebrew I could find.
+Rayeketta Jackson Todah for watching. I do believe all Achot should learn how to make their own soaps. It is better for us, because we know what's in it.
thanks a lot for your videos. Interesting
You are welcome, and thanks for watching.
Love the tutorial! Did you have the oils measured out somewhere that I might have missed? Thank you!
Hi Sistah. Isn't the potash the source/ replacement for lye? Why do you need both potash and lye? I thought the burnt plantain, etc was what made black soap different from regular lye based. You even add the ash after? Why?
You are absolutely right, This was my first experience and I seen someone else do it that way. But I have learned a lot more since then. Thanks for watching.
In that case Set apart living, could you make the African soap in the good old way and teach us as well.
Sistah have you made an updated video since youve learned more?
@@khushbumerchant8550 she said her way is different from the african way
good job!
Love this video!!! I always wanted to learn how to make Soap!! You have inspired me!!
I am going make some soap!
I heard you had to “cure” home made soap. Is that true for this recipe?
From what I understand, adding the lye isn't necessary. Roasting the plantain into ash and adding the water is supposed to make potash which acts as a natural "lye". I've seen some videos of Africans making the soap outside over an open flame and they did not add lye...unfortunately nothing is in English so there r no measurements mentioned
Yes, I know. My goal is to get the right type of aluminum bowl to make it in.
Hi Mama Cheryl 🤗 These videos on the homemade African/Hebrew black soap are great. Your tutorial on soap making is awesome. Your a great teacher. I'm going to look online to purchase this wonderful soap, unless you sell it? If so I can purchase it from you? Please let me know.
Take care and Shalom 😄
Waiting for my soap making supplies to be shipped to me from Idaho.
Have you made a video on making the African black soap the original way with the pot ash? Maybe I missed it on your channel
all of the oils and creams that you used before the ash would make a GREAT hair moisturizer. I'mma try all of that.
+Camille Rogers Did you ever make the hair moisturizer, and if so, how did it turn out?
Yes tooo heavy
What about a wash out conditioner?
Ok thanks i can wait for your answer i really appreciate the video i sell black and shea butter soaps but i would like to make it to add essential oils to it like you do
Also, did you youtube the "authentic" version of the African black soap that this video did not complete? Could you put a link to that recipe? Any update links to this recipe (how it feels, lathers, etc.) that we could follow easily?
Sister, what temp do you start cooking the mix at then each cooking time what temp and for how long? Thank you so much sister
hello, thank you for this video.Can you tell me your measurements for this?
Hello. Love it. What are the measurements of ingredients. I would like to try your recipe.
Pot ash is alwsys better because its organic but I think you still did a great job!
Yes, pot ash is better, but this was my first time making it, so I went with what I knew at the time. Thanks for watching.
Nice one ma Pls I need the quantities or the measurements of what you used thanks ma in anticipation
Ma''am, how much of the solid oil did you use? How much ash was in your container. It looked like about 1 cup?
it looks like 250ml
Can I replace the lye with potash?
hi I'm a beginner. could you put the amounts you used? I would love to make this soap
I have a question for you
I sale organic soap online
However I have a few client that always asking me to make skin lightening soap for them my concern is I can still use lye in just add
my skin lightening ingredients
Would it make any difference
Please respond back thank you.
shalom, would you send me your recipe? I really would like to make my own.
I made some Black African Soap and it's very exfoliating (rough) to the skin. Is that normal? or Did I put too much ash in?
this was the video I was looking for..I've seen part 1 to 3 so this should b part 4 on the title I believe right?... you might want to correct that because your videos are great
Hi Ty, number 4 is there, I mistakingly called it 3. I ixed it in the title so you should be able to find it.
I fixed it in the title.
Set Apart Living thank you, I was also wondering, if I wash my face with the soap n leave a little bit of soap on my skin, will it benefit my skin from acne...(if I leave it on n dont wash it off?)
I would only leave it on as a mask for a few minutes and then wash it off.
hello nice recipe.. one question.. u used lye liquid as well as ash.. doesn't make it too alkali? cant we use only one of these two..?
No, I only used let crystals. Thanks for watching.
Hello wonderdul video what’s the measurements you used ?
Momma how much lye did you use, actually what are the measurement requirement you use for each additive and for this video many bars of soap where you able to make?
+Chriss Williams As of right now I don't remember. I would have to go back through all the videos to see.
where did you get the ash from?
Is the lye needed if there is already ahses?
hi can you please teach how can we make potash
Hello. please what are the quantities please
Can i cp it instead of hot process
may i please have the measurements . thank you
I'm confused. If you have natural lye, (plantain ash, banana ash, etc) why do you need Lye? I thought the ashes is a lye in itself. Does the African women use Lye? I thought they simply use the ashes as a lye?
Caribbean Queen You are right, the ashes were natural lye. At that time the reason I did it like that is because that's the wat I was shown, but I did say in one of the videos that the next time I make it I would do it the right way.
doesnt superfatting makes the soap softer to the touch? - I tried superfatting and my soap never hardened completely.. I only used 1 ounce of castor oil on a 3 lb batch..so it wasn't even that much.
+Mac Pelao It did take a little longer to cure and set up but after that it was fine.
would the consistency be like that without lye?
It would be water at the bottom and oils floating on top.
How come you put lye
what kind of lye did you use?
+Winny The Pooh I normally would use Essential Depot lye, but on this day I didn't have any, so I used 100% lye I got from Lowes. This is the only brand that they carried.
How long do you let it cure?
I did hot process so I didn't have to let it cure.
Set Apart Living
Ok, thank you sis.
Would you describe what you meant by "Cook" for the soap? Why is it important? Specially for 2hrs.
Thank you
It is important to cook the soap for to hours to cure it by removing the lye from it. If you don't cook it, you have to let it air cure anywhere from four to six weeks. I hope this answers your question.
Set Apart Living okay. What is "Air curing"?
Air curing is letting the soap sit somewhere uncovered and air cure. As time goes on the lye in the soap dissipates. The soap can't be used until all the lye cured our of it.
Set Apart Living Yes ma'am! Thank you very much for clarifying that.
+Set Apart Living I don't mean to be rude, but I just wanted to clarify what you said about the Cooking your Soap vs Air Curing. It is a very common misconception that cooking the soap means that it doesn't require a cure time. While this is somewhat true, it will be a better bar of soap if given a full cure. Curing does not refer to the amount of time that there is no more lye. Even in Cold Process Soap Making (without cooking) lye is neutralized, and there is no more lye remaining after 24-48 hours. Cooking the soap, forces the Saponification and the Gel Stage, to neutralize the lye faster, and making it safer to use sooner. The "curing" refers to how long it takes for all of the water to evaporate out of the soap. Cooking the soap speeds up this process, but there will still be traces of water left that still needs to evaporate after it has been molded and cut. Weighing at least 1 bar of soap out of each batch of soap made, will help in determining when your soap has finished curing. (Once it stops losing weight, is when all the water has been evaporated out)
shalom Doda Mashalom mekh?? Do I need the lye??
Thank you for watching. If you make it the way I did, yes you need the lye.
Beseder todah
you dont need lye because the burn plantain contains a natural occurring lye that forms during the burning process.
this is not a pure natural black soap you made.
this is not how we do it in Nigeria.
without lye, it will still lather.
Shalum Judith, Yes I know it doesn't need lye. Did you not check the date to see how old this video is? A lot has changed since then.
what kind of Drano or lye did you use??? Thanks...
The lye brand must say 100% lye with no additves, colors etc.
Why are you calling it he brew black soap?
😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡
