I have become increasingly dissatisfied with all the styling waxes out in the Universe.
I want to sculpt my very recalcitrant hair without feeling like I'm covered in sticky mess.
I want to be able to sleep one night with a styling wax and wake up able to mist my hair with one of my organic hydrosols, place my mohawk, and be done for the day.
I want to smell fabulous. Not like a melon, orange, or disgusting perfume.
So....
I made my own using primarily raw beeswax, a bit of Jasmine Sambac wax and, just because...A tiny droplet of Ambergris infused jojoba.
Want some?
If so...just comment on this post. I will hold some kind of lottery thingy and provide some of this hair/eyebrow styling wax to one lucky reader.
Obtaining anything with real Ambergris in it for free is really really really reallllly hard!

Cheers, Noelle
Sounds wonderful! :)
My insolent mohawk eyebrows mock all products and have earned a severe disciplining.

Gail:
I will have to have some of this. One question - will it also act as a setting gel?
Blessings,
Bonnie
Noelle! I spent so much time on facebook I couldn't muster the discipline to blog LOL

Shelley,
Do you shape your brows?
Thread or pluck or wax then take a decently wide basic comb, comb in a downward stroke over your brows making sure the comb is between you and a pair of small scissors and carefully and fearlessly snip at what stands out of the comb.
This leaves you with the natural outline of your brow.
You can then further enhance your brows if you like at this point (or leave them alone)
I myself am partial to bird like feathery outlines on my brows.
Bonnie:
This is a strictly waxen material.
It is fairly hard but rubs off thru the heat of your hands to mildly encapsulate your hair so you can pull out strands or tendrils for more texture. It would not be appropriate for a setting tool.
It isn't going to work with rewetting either I realized. However, if you gently heat your hair with a blower you can reshape your hair.
Works best on shorter hair btw
Makes a lovely subtle perfume for the hair tho.
Oh my .. I want some for sure.!
Ms Gail .. I adore your work.
See you soon I hope.!

hey... sounds interesting.. does it wash out with H2O, or does it need shampoo? Does it wash out easily?
It sounds so exotic and of course I want some. me me me... ahh.. welll.

It's a wax base (mostly bee with some jojoba infusions) so it needs mild shampoo but it's so light much will absorb.
It's been all day now that I've worn some and it acted as a light texturizer as well as a humectant.
You bet Roe Roe
Gail - this wax sounds fabulous! I'd love to try some ~ whats more I'd love for my partner to try some instead of the sticky, tacky, gagglingly lolly sweet gunk he currently uses...! LOL
Is it okay for international entries? :oD
Many thanks

The worst thing about getting older (for me) has been the long, gray, out of control eyebrows. sometimes I look at myself in the mirror and see Andy Rooney. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I need this product!
Thanks, Terri
Holly: Sure!
Terri,
I love what the wax does for my brows. I also feel that the type of tlc I mentioned to Shelley that I have ritualized is crucial.
I think brows are the most defining influence in a face.
Gail:
I would love anything from you of course, but this would be wonderful for these silly brows which are turning white. :o( Hi ya Shelley...and when oh when will Gail come to Texas again to see ME? LOL
Hugs

CINDY!!!!
Next year, SXSW?
I could really use a good styling wax. Hope I'm not to late for the drawing.
