**Product Review: Qhemet Biologics Olive & Honey Hydrating Balm**


Yes, another Qhemet Biologics Review ;o)  LOVE IT!

Qhemet Biologics Olive & Honey Hydrating Balm

Cost: $16.00 (www.qhemetbiologics.com)
Size:  8.0 oz
Scent: Light Citrus
Consistency: The texture of honey

What They Say:Our pure and natural hydrating balm leaves dense, coarse and dry hair touchably soft, moist and supple. 

What I Say:This stuff is awesome!  If your hair desires moisture, this is another QB product for you.  This product gives extra hydration.  It makes the hair very soft and leaves the hair feeling super moisturized.  Due to reviews, I first tried this product by mixing it with the QB Amla & Olive Heavy Cream and fell in LOVE!  I have officially found my styling aid for twists, twist-outs, etc. The texture is very much like honey but is very easy to apply the hair.  It leaves the hair feeling a little sticky if used on dry hair so I prefer it on damp hair.  This product is good on its own but GREAT when mixed with the AOHC.  It is a little costly as well but worth every penny! I will use this product as a styler and to keep the ends of the hair moisturized.  Update: I will use this product as is to moisturize BG "S" locs after washing.  Here is the post where I styled BG "S" hair with the combo. Another staple from QB!

Ingredients:Pure Olive Oil, expressed from the fruit seeds of the noble and majestic Olive tree, delivers softness and emollience. Pure Grapeseed Oil delivers shine, softness and lubricity. MSM nourishes scalp and encourages healthy growth while pure wildflower honey and vegetable glycerin contribute lasting moisture and softness.  Does not contain mineral oil, lanolin, proteins, silicones, artificial fragrances, dyes or parabens.

*Color may vary from batch to batch from yellow to green due to the natural color variance in Olive and Grapeseed Oils.

**** I give this product a 5 out of 5 Baby Curls****

Homemade Whipped Hair Butter

Homemade Whipped Hair Butter

This was my first attempt at making a Homemade Whipped Hair Butter.  I absolutely love it, not to mention it is cost effective. It leaves the hair unbelievably soft and manageable.  Not to mention its perfect for dry hair.  I use this as a sealant and a styler.

**I keep all products in the fridge when not being used**

My Whipped Hair Butter Recipe 
8 oz Unrefined Shea Butter 1/2 cup Aloe Vera Juice (optional)
1/2 cup Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil 1 tbsp Jojoba Oil 1 tbsp Sweet Almond Oil 1 tbsp Castor Oil 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1/8 essential oil for fragrance (optional) drop of honey (optional-acts as humectant)

2013 Update: I use variations of this recipe, I swap oils using only our favorites or currents and sometimes eliminate the use of AVJ/AVG to avoid having to store it in the fridge.


Consistency: Creamy Texture
