    I tried making a conditioner that I saw on a vendor formulary… not sure what went wrong.  It is fluffy, textured, and didn’t really thicken. Help..

    HEC-0.4%
    glycerin-3%
    EDTA-0.13%
    Ceteareth-20- 0.5%
    Cetyl Alcohol -2.5%
    Stearyl Alcohol -2.5%
    dimethicone 3%
    preservative-1.0%
    Cetrimonium Chloride -3.0%

    Can you share the method? 

    (Have you neutralized the HEC? What is the final pH?)

    Don’t use EDTA with cationics
