Instructions
How to make Hair Pomade:
- First, mix together jojoba oil and arrowroot in a small bowl and set aside.
- Melt shea butter and melt beeswax in a microwave safe container for 1 minute, 45 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Next, stir in coconut oil mixture until melted.
- (This is what I use for a makeshift double boiler.)
- Next, add arrowroot and stir well. Let set until cool, and it will look like it hardened. But it has not, just stir the mixture to create the paste.
- (Some people use a hand mixer to get a really smooth texture but I just mix by hand)
- Finally, place into a jar or small pot with a lid to hold the pomade.
Directions to use Homemade Hair Pomade:
