  • Help! My spray in detangler keeps separating

    Posted by Unknown Member on September 21, 2025 at 12:35 pm

    I am trying to formulate a leave in hair detangler/heat protectant and it keeps separating. I have tried many variations. Here is my latest formula:

    92.9% water

    0.3% Behentrimonium Chloride

    0.3% Cetearyl Alcohol

    2% Centrimonium Chloride

    1% Panthenol

    3% Vegan Thermal Shield (from FSS) its water soluable

    0.5% Liquid Germall Plus

    I have tried up to 3% BTMC and tried without the Cetearyl alcohol as well. The spray detangles amazingly, but separates. I want it to spray in a mist and not a stream. Right now my formula mists out beautifully.
