Strengthening Shampoo w/ Keratin & Bamboo Extract

Updated: May 13, 2022


Formula;

phase A

phase B

phase C

Directions;

  • begin by mixing together the 2 ingredients in phase A

  • next you can work on phase B. Heat up the crothix just a little bit before mixing it into the other ingredients in phase B. This will thicken up a lot!

  • After all the ingredients in phase B are combined you can work on phase C

  • For phase C just mix all the ingredients together.

  • Next pour phase A into phase C. Then pour phase B in phase A/C

  • Mix everything together until well combine. It may take a while to get phase B completely mixed in, but I promise it will eventually mix together.

  • Balance the ph of the shampoo and then cover your beaker and let sit over night

  • The next day you can pour your shampoo in a bottle.

ph adjusting; natural ph falls around 5.9. I added in 3 drops of a 50% citric acid dilution in 50% distilled water and got the ph down to 5.3 For haircare products you want a ph between 4.5-5.5
