This is the best video I've see of this yet! Thank you for sharing!!!
Thanks so much for watching!
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.
What a cute and wholesome way to tame those rogue hairs. Love it.
Thanks Brian! Gotta keep ‘em in line lol
This looks easy to make. I’m definitely going to make this
WOW! I thought natural edge controls only comes from organic beeswax! I definitely learned something new! Thanks for sharing this video!
Thanks for watching!
Yay! No alcohol in the ingredients! It drys my hair and flakes my scalp and then causes itching!
🙌🏾
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.
Proud of you queen love this video
Thank you queen ❤️
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.
So glad it worked out!
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!

Can you use paraffin wax beads if that’s the only wax you have
Hello thnxx for sharing. I just discover ot. Can i use beeswax in place of candelilla wax?
Please i will wait for the answer. I wait to.make it
Hi! Yes, you can substitute beeswax! Thanks for watching!
Love this Definitely doing this later today. Just found out the edge control I was using contained formaldehyde 🤮🤢☠️ like wtf.
if you don’t mind me asking, what is formaldehyde?
@@TheIchigo287 Among other uses...The chemical formaldehyde is used to preserve bodies. What does it do exactly? Formaldehyde changes the tissue on a molecular level so that the bacteria can't feed on the tissue. You could say it tears apart the constructs of your tissue. Apr 10, 2018
@@kimberlycoltrainrsrccr2626 whaaat?! YUCK!
@@TheIchigo287
All I could think of is my 7th grade science class w the frogs in the jars before dissection...yeah...no...I got out of doing it by nearly fainting...so much for my dreams of becoming a mortician...😕
Oh God!! What edge control is this!? Why would they put that in there smh
Grand Rising Queen. What’s the shelf life with this recipe?
She said about 6months
Hi. Can beeswax ration be cut in half and substituted for the Candelilla wax?
Yes it can!
Please where can I get the candelilla wax from
Click the 2nd link in the description box
Hi does it need preservative, also can one sell this.
No preservative needed. I can't see why not!
how long would this last in my bathroom cupboard? I want to make some but I don't want to make it and waste it
6 months or so!
@@LAurenrdaniels thank you so much! I was worried lol but you put me at ease❤️
Um I'm sorry but it doesn't even slick down it just added more oil to your hair ..I Do like the Process But U need to find another ingredients that allows it to lay down
Thanks for the information. I'm looking for a diy that will hold down. Guess I'll have to continue looking.
Beautiful movie
Does this have strong hold for thick hair and does it flake?
No flaking! It really does depend from person to person on how long it holds!
@@LAurenrdaniels okay thank you
Can you use any wax? :)
You can - the ratios may be different for other waxes since they are all a bit different
@@LAurenrdaniels thank you! 🤗
It doesn’t have any hold
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.
Does it hold though?
Depends on your hair texture, but it holds for me!
❤Can i use beeswax? ❤
Yes, you can!
Hello does it turn into white flakes
No ma'am
@@LAurenrdaniels sorry to bother you. How long does it keep your edges down?
@@lisawalker6073 Hello, I would like to know that too
This doent hold anything
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.
