Yes I do, I have a beard, I've been buying beard oil, but that stuff is expensive. Oh, it's not a terribly long beard, the hipsters I work with are disappointed. I've looked into getting this Now Foods Variety Moisturizing Oils Sampler: Sweet Almond, Avocado, and Jojoba Oils - 4oz. Bottles each https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TIS57MG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_RBoGBbEJYF4RP
I've read that those three oils are the base for a lot of beard oils. I haven't pulled the trigger on getting that just yet.
Sure! You need an electric mixer, raw unrefined shea butter, oatmeal, 3 moisturizing oils of your choice, water, and a stove top.
I get my shea butter from the African store in town, but Amazon sells tubs for pretty cheap. For oils I'd recommend this set on Amazon, all of these oils are known for their moisturizing properties. I just use regular smegular quaker oats in the tin.
First, soak your oatmeal for a few hours and then blend it into a drippy liquidy peanut butter consistency. Chop your shea block into smaller chunks to make it easier. Have two pans on the stove: one to melt half of your shea and another to warm your oils. If the oils get too hot they break down, so that burner needs to be on the LOWEST setting. The pan should be warm to the touch, but touchable with bare hands.
Put enough shea to cover the bottom of your other pot, this one is on mediumish heat. Slowly pour in the oils, oatmeal blend, and leftover shea chunks into the pot while you have mixer on. Take it off heat when everything is sufficiently melted and keep mixing until it gets to the consistency you want.
I used to use honey but then I got ants, so now I drop in a few drops of honey fragrance oil I got at some flea market. If these instructions don't make sense, I modified my recipe from this video!
