its ph was 5 and i lowered it to 4. is that too acidic?
and its got micelles of castor oil in it. should i have used a different oil (you can see not all the guar gum is dissolved yet)
im going to try it out as a rinse for my hair soap and see what happens.
was playing with the guar gum and its super. so no guar gum lotion yet but maybe this is a conditioner.
not really sure why it takes me so long to play with ingredients?
now im all excited because i think i made hair conditioner.
sheesh.
i guess its a thickened acid water / rinse, and it has some oil in it.
is it a conditioner?

i guess if i add the polysorbate to the oils then add it to citric acid water then add the guar gum, then its kinda like conditioner.
what took me so long to do this? i didnt even need to think about it because ive been reading about hair stuff for so long now (cos my hair fell out remember)
i just needed the space and peace to sit down and focus on doing it.
did i make conditioner? i will try a better trial later. i think the guar gum needs 8 hours to fully absorb? and how long will it last?
here is one with more pics + almond milk
