Will it keep the whipped consistency over time or would I need to whip it again? Great video, Kirbie you keep getting better and better!

[KirbieJohnson]

yep. It should totally keep the whipped consistency. I like to store mine in the fridge.

[rockysmom]

Hi kirbie, when making this DIY in how long will it keep its texture ?

[phuonghoangthi]

Can i leave the glycerin and argan oil?

[CosmoProducts]

Kirby, if we use olive oil or jojoba oil will it last just as long if we would have put in sweet almond oil or almond oil?

[anhthukieuthi]

AWESOME video but I live in Hong Kong where could I even buy those supplies ?

[MakeupCraze]

do you add regular water, or the water that you used to boil the coconut oil

[LilbearsDIYs]

Oh my gosh I made the leave in conditioner. WOW. It's outstanding my hair is softer then it has ever

[misslaw]

Hello we have coconut oil already liquid we don't have as white paste in jar can it work too ?

[GiannaBalogh]

Ok so I love this! I made it and my hair feels amazing. One small thing though I couldn't find almond oil so I used tea tree oil since it has vitemin E

[simslovealot]

for the hair spray you said to fill it with half water and half of the melted cream, but then you mentioned that the soap won't stain your hair if you add it to the bottle. so do you put in that melted cream, or the cream that we just made with all the other stuff too?

[Hayleyyy]

This channel is fabulous! Thank you Kirbie!

[taurahelms]

Cool! I have some vegetable glycerin and thought I'd have to throw it out. I didn't know I can use it in my hair. Thanks.

[KirbieJohnson]

Glycerin is found in a lot of conditioners! It helps to smooth out the cuticle of the hair, so essentially it makes it softer and less frizzy.

[Stormwyrm]

Your videos are so professional and educational! I love them!

[KirbieJohnson]

Yes, because once you refrigerate it, it will become the consistency for the cream, and it will already be perfect for the spray in liquid form.

[KirbieJohnson]

Correct. If it gets cold, it will need to be melted, but usually at room temp/hotter temps it stays in liquid form.

[PatriciaGarcia-busn]

if u are using it for ur hair do u have to whip it ? and do u have to put it in the spray bottle with water? or can u just leave it in the liquid form and apply it with ur hands? I bout glycerine for a face mask so I'm happy to see ur video but before I try it I would like a reply to my questions please
