# How to Make Your Own Edge Control

In the dynamic world of hair care, professionals constantly seek innovations to cater to evolving client needs. Creating bespoke products not only ensures client satisfaction but also enhances YOGI CARE's exclusivity. One such versatile product is edge control, ideal for grooming and styling hair. Here’s a professional guide on crafting your own edge control that stands out in quality and performance.

Why Make Your Own Edge Control?

As industry professionals, you understand the importance of customizability in products. Crafting your own edge control allows you to:

1. Tailor the ingredients to meet specific customer preferences for textures and scents.

2. Control the quality, ensuring no harmful chemicals are used.

3. Keep pace with trends by quickly adjusting formulas.

4. Build a brand reputation for High-Quality, tailored products.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Creating professional-grade edge control requires carefully selected ingredients. Here’s a list to get started:

- Aloe Vera Gel: Known for its moisturizing properties, aloe vera ensures hair health and shine.

- Carrier Oils (e.g., Castor Oil, Jojoba Oil): These improve texture and add nourishing qualities.

- Beeswax: Essential for providing the necessary hold and texture.

- Essential Oils (e.g., Lavender, Tea Tree): Offer aroma and additional scalp benefits.

- Vitamin E Oil: Acts as a natural preservative and helps hair shine.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace

Ensure your work area is clean and equipped with sterilized containers and mixing tools. This maintains hygiene and product integrity.

Step 2: Mix the Base

In a heat-safe bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of beeswax and 2 tablespoons of your chosen carrier oil. Melt them together using a double boiler method for gentle, even heating.

Step 3: Add Moisturizers

Remove from heat and quickly stir in 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel and a few drops of vitamin E oil. This will add richness and moisture.

Step 4: Infuse Your Edge Control

Add a few drops of essential oil for fragrance. If you desire a firmer hold, increase the beeswax slightly.

Step 5: Cool and Store

Pour the mixture into a clean container and let it cool completely. Seal tightly and label with the date of preparation for quality tracking.

Application Tips for Professionals

1. Start with Clean Hair: Edge control works best on dry, clean hair.

2. Use Sparingly: Apply a small amount and smooth with a fine comb or toothbrush for precision.

3. Tailor to Style Needs: Adjust the formula for firmer hold by increasing beeswax for more detailed styles.

Troubleshooting

- Too Greasy? Reduce the carrier oil amount.

- Flaky Result? Ensure proper mixing to avoid ingredient separation.

- Not Holding? Add more beeswax in small increments for stronger holding power.
