    Hello,
    I recently made your liquid shampoo and conditioner and gave a couple questions. Am I able to turn the liquid shampoo and conditioner into bars? Also when my hair completely dries, the ends are left almost wet looking, as if there is too much oil what do you recommend that I do? I tried adding my water but I don’t think that worked.

      I do have separate recipes specifically for bars. Be sure to search for those on the blog. Are you washing the conditioner out completely?

    Can I use shea butter in place of coco butter?

    Aloha Laura! I’m obsessed with all of your beautiful and amazing natural recipes! Is this one for conditioner bars? Meaning can I pour these into molds like when I make shampoo bars? Thanks in advance and thank you for all you do!
