Natural Hair Oil Formulation Advice

Thank you for sharing your natural hair oil formula. To achieve a lighter texture suitable for a pump bottle while maintaining nourishing properties, you can adjust the blend of oils.

Your current formula includes several beneficial oils. Olive Oil, while nourishing, can contribute to a heavier feel. To lighten the texture, consider reducing the percentage of Olive Oil and incorporating a lighter carrier oil.

We recommend trying a modification like this:

• Jojoba Oil: 46.5%
• Olive Oil (Extra Virgin): 10% (Reduced from 20%)
• Squalane (Olive): 15%
• Sweet Almond Oil: 10%
• Turmeric Oil: 3% (Please note: Our search for "Turmeric Oil" returned a water-soluble extract. Ensure the Turmeric Oil you are using is oil-soluble for this formula.)
• Grape Seed Oil: 2%
• Aloe Vera Oil (Infused): 1%
• Fragrance: 1%
• Vitamin E Acetate: 1%
• Vitamin E Tocopherol: 0.5%
• Fractionated Coconut Oil: 10% (Added for lightness)
  • Total: 100%

By reducing the Olive Oil and adding Fractionated Coconut Oil, which is very lightweight and non-greasy, the overall texture of the hair oil will be significantly lighter, making it easier to dispense from a pump bottle while still providing excellent conditioning benefits.

Alternatively, you could replace the Fractionated Coconut Oil with Hemisqualane, another very light and fast-absorbing emollient.

You may need to experiment with the exact percentages to find the perfect balance for your desired feel and pump bottle compatibility.
