Hi!
I am an African American with alot of natural dry, kinky hair. AND I
have very bad allergies to most commercial shampoos ans conditioners.
I don’t know what cheminals I am allergic to, but is very bad. I
can’t even use the commercial leave in conditioners. Can someone
please help me with a good conditioner recipe? I am trying to make my
own for one month (tryed 2-3 recipes), with very little succes (hair
is stil very dry). Any recipe will be apreciated. I will try until I
find what works for me. Thanks!

You are probably allergic to the preservatives in commercial shampoos
and conditioners, which mostly contain parabens and are a known
allergin to many people.
You might try shampooing with a “natural shampoo” without any
preservatives and using a weekly conditioner such as below.
After shampooing with natural shampoo be sure to use a “vinegar
rinse” to restore the pH of your hair [because natural shampoo has a
higher pH than your hair], using 1 part white vinegar to 6 parts
water.
Simple Weekly or bi-weekly conditioner:
Heat 1/4 c cocoa butter with 1/4 c almond oil or [apricot kernel oil
or grapeseed oil or avacado oil] until cocoa butter is melted, and
use all of this when it is not too hot but “very warm” rubbing on
your DRY hair, massaging it into your hair, cover head with plastic
wrap and keep on your hair for 30 minutes. Then Shampoo out
throughly, using a natural shampoo and a vinegar rinse.
hope this helps
