Hello from Kentucky!

[Sandra Henderson]

I have been making soap since 2002. I grew up loving my Mamaw's homemade lye soap and when she got dementia I wanted to carry on the tradition. Since then, I've developed many soaps, lotions, lip balms, etc..

I've always wanted to formulate a shampoo and conditioner bar. The problem I've had with it is that I've never been able to find a 100% natural catatonic emulsifying wax for my conditioner bar, which I finally found Inolex and they do make such an animal! Yay! I was researching that when I found this forum. I think it's awesome! Everyone needs to know how to make soap!

I believe we're never too advanced to learn new things and should always be teachable. I also believe it is a wonderful thing to be able to leave that knowledge behind.

Godspeed to all of you wonderful soapers!

Welcome, and thanks for sharing your wonderful soapy history. It is so precious to make recipes passed down from parents and grandparents, isn't it?

Lovely tradition and memories It’s wonderful that you’re working on shampoo and conditioner bars. The less plastic/packaging in this world, the better!
