shampoos

[beautifulbay]

I'm looking for a nice shampoo recipe that doesn't call for a detergent concentrate that you just add water to...

does anyone know a good way to make it they'd like to share? I'd like a simple recipe without too much to add, just so I caqn practice it for a bit.

thank you in advance

You could try this one:

10 oz Coconut Oil
6 oz Lard
4 oz Castor Oil
34 oz Olive Oil
7 oz lye
20 1/2 oz water
3 - 6 drops rosemary oil (dark hair) or chamomile oil (for light hair)
FO of choice.

I haven't tried this one yet but I've heard it's good.

Cheers

Don,t forget to recheck the lye on the soap calc

it looks nice, but with that recipe I'd not use a 26% lye solution - lard & olive are SLOW tracers, and olive takes a long time to harden. bring it up to say 30%
