Soap question, homemade nettle/milk bar

I wonder if this soap I've made for my body can be good for my hair too? What are you think?

Ingredients: Coconut oil, olive oil, sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, milk, green tea extract, nettles, rosmarin and some essential oils.

The milk (3%) isnt calculated in the picture, but it's mostly there for the foaming and for a less itchy skin.

My dreads is 9 month and almost matured, but there is also some babies from loose hair and a bit in the ends which still loose without knots. I have soft water.

Thanks for your answer. Maybe anyone know the perfect condition number for a dread bar soap? If, I will make a new receipe just for my hair. It's just how less conditioning for dreads it would be I'm not sure about for be able to make my own..

Absolutely. Your right, but the lye matter a lot. Therefore the number from the whole combination is more important than these oils in this case. I believe dr bronner have a lot of olive of coconut too?
