Just want to give a special shout out to Sareca.sareca said:I'm glad you're excited. I hate to sound like a nike commerical but "just do it."
This recipe is easier than making meringue. It takes longer but the process is identical but not nearly as picky as eggs about whipping up. I whip mine a few times over a couple of days so that it's extra smooth and extra creamy and extra light. That is NOT a requirement either, but it does add that wow-factor to the finished product.

My lastest version. It absorbs into the hair much faster than my previous version.
mochamadness said:Sareca, you really need to start selling this stuff. It looks so yummy and moisturizing. I wish I could get my hands on some of this stuff. I know my hair would love it![]()
patient1 said:Erm, yeah!There are millions of heads of hair JUST in what we know as the Black community. Not everyone feels like mixing and measuring and whipping and what not. Perhaps they'd rather spend their time knitting or writing or whatever.
I make stuff AND I purchase stuff that I could make or duplicate myself. Just depends on my mood and my wallet's disposition.
I think Sareca's got a Henna How To booklet and some Henna kits in her too!![]()

Can you tell me what this does anyone please?
sareca said:But the recipe's so easy. *shakes head* *sighs* *pouts*
Selling henna is a great idea! I should sell henna. Lord knows I have enough of it. I also make jewelry. I've been dying to sell that for years and years.

I didn't make this one. I don't have any of mine. I gave 'em all away. I brought this one on my honeymoon and figured out how to make it. It's a real fern leaf dipped in 14k gold. I found somebody who sells the leaves and I can make the rest.
Really, I'm working on selling it. I'm testing and perfecting recipe now.

sareca said:Ladies you don't have to have all the ingredients to make a whipped butter cream. The bare minimums are oil, a hard butter, emu oil, and lecithin. If you have those you can make any kinda of cream just by beating it with a hand mixer over an ice bath. It might take 2-3 minutes but it will eventually come together and the lecithin and emu oil will help it stay there. You can make a mango & alma cream, a kemi oyl & illipe butter cream, a shea and grapeseed oil... pick whatever oils your hair likes and use your imagination.
Lecithin is a natural perservative but add a few drops of vitamin e oil too (4 drops/lb).
If you want to add silk, honeyquat, etc... add them after you've melted and mixed all the oils/butter together, but before the ice bath. The butter and oil should be about 50-50%. It's just that simple.
Start today. Use whatever's in the house. If you don't have emu oil and lecithin make sure you add vitamin e (or another perservative). Your mix will probably separate after a few days (kinda like peanut butter does) that's ok, just stir it up and keep on truckin'.Somehow I made mine complicated, but that is certainly NOT a requirement. This should be a nice easy mix that's tailor made for YOUR hair.
Thank you! I'm not making your product I'm trying to make my own to something I like but am allegric too and I was wondering if lecitin was what I thought it was. Thank you.sareca said:[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Lecithin is an emulsifier, thickener, stabilizer, mild preservative, moisturizer, and emollient.[/FONT]
VWVixxen said:Sareca,
Thanks (always) for all your useful info and giving nature!I got the PM, not sure if I thanked you yet, so if not....THANK YOU!!
I've got a question on the lecithin. Is it food grade or is there a distinction between what you would use for cosmetics and what you would get from Vitamin Shop? I found some at Vitamin Shop but don't want to open it if it is not suitable.
Thanks in advance! My mom and I are playing in the kitchen this weekend!![]()

ETA: Sareca, that new picture in your siggy has me cracking up..with your eyes blurred out you look like a soul-less, demon child..LOL..love dem twist
joyousnerd said:Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus begging you to sell this stuff, at least to us on LHCF!!!! There's no way I'll find the time to make this stuff, and mine would proly come out all jacked up anyway. I'd gladly buy a jar or 12 from you! You'd be saving me time and I'd be giving you money! What could be better? Think of it as a public service!!!
sareca said:I give up. You'll be able to buy some in August or September of this year. It does take a while and a little money to collect all the ingredients. So for those of you that aren't mixologist. Paypal will work.![]()
