[alicia]

Hi everyone i just posted another post before for a soap recipe well this post is asking for a shampoo and conditioner recipe's that has no SLS (Sodium Laurel Sulphate) in it and what steps i need to take and do to make the shampoo and conditioner or if their is a forum.
Also where i could find a supplier that would sell clear pump bottles to put it in in a size about 18cm high.

Thank you

Hmmm - how to respond.

At this point in your relationship with this forum (as in, you haven't really developed one yet), it's really best to not just start with "please give me recipes and tell me how to make stuff". How would you, as a business owner or someone who did a lot of work to develop a product, respond to a total stranger coming up to you on the street and asking questions like this?

I suggest you start with using a search engine to get some basic learnings, maybe a few books, and trying a few things yourself. What people here will likely provide at this point is GENERAL guidance - including things like links to websites, supplier names, etc.

Or perhaps I'm wrong and someone will hand over their formulas. Sometimes we do.

Good luck.

Hi alicia and welcome.

A great place to start is here: http://swiftcraftymonkey.blogspot.com/

Susan is an excellent chemist and teacher and she has tons of information on her blog. She has lots of recipes and tells you who the suppliers are.

Good luck!

Absolutely swiftcraftymonkey will give you tons of good info. I also like browsing places like lotioncrafter and the herbarie. Reading information on different ingredients will help you to know what you want in your hair. So much of formulation is not only what you don't want, but what you do.
reading will help you decide what will benefit your particular hair type.

I have to agree with Carebear on this one. You really need to do your own research. The search forum here is wonderful.. While we are all here to ask questions, and help others asking questions, you need to put in the work first...
Just click the search button and put in shampoo or conditioner and I'm sure alot of what you're looking for will pop up!
