What you need

¼ cup liquid castile soap (where to get it)

Directions

The first thing you’re going to do is melt the shea butter using a double boiler.
Once it’s all melted, pour it into a large bowl and vigorously stir in the soy lecithin and geranium oil. Just let it cool off for a minute.
Meanwhile, warm the rose water until it is just warm enough. Don’t over heat or boil it! It just has to be warm.
Now pour the warm rose water into the melted shea butter and blend with the immersion blender.
Blend, blend and blend until you get a well combined white colored mixture.
And that’s it! Pour it into a pump bottle. You might need to shake the bottle before use.
To use, lather up your wet hair then rinse off thoroughly.
Follow up with an apple cider vinegar hair rinse or your usual conditioner.
