After last fortnights recipe on solid shampoo bars it seems only right to complete the treatment with a solid conditioner bar. These bars are fabulous when travelling as there is no risk of leaking into baggage, and take up a ridiculously small amount of space.
Makes 2 x 60gm bars
Phase 1
100gm BTMS 25
5gm cetyl stearyl alcohol
5gm cocoa butter
3gm avocado oil
Phase 2
3gm sodium lactate
2gm d-panthenol
2gm invigorating essential oil blend
Place phase one ingredients in a double boiler arrangement and heat until all ingredients are melted.
Remove from heat and allow to cool a little.
Add phase 2 ingredients and combine well.
Pour into moulds and allow to set up completely before unmoulding.
To use: Rub directly on freshly shampooed hair. Massage into hair. Allow to sit for 2 minutes before rinsing clean.

Hi Kerry,
By any chance, have you tested how many washes the above recipe (approx 120g) will last for?
Thanks

Debbie, It can technically be used straight away but may need time to get harder for the longest shelf life.
Hi there just a query with the conditioner bar, can you use it straight away or does it have to cure for 4-5 weeks as with cold process soap?
