Make hair styling product which gives shining, restylible, high fixation, no flakes, smooth effect and thanks to Allah I did it.

@Paprik have you any explanation or suggestion? 

[Fekher]

@Paprik actually for economical reason and also accessibility i’am trying to keep my ingredients as much as possible , for the moment may I can interduce (sodium cocoamphoacetate, Sodium lauroyl sarcosinate), appriciate your input. 
@Abdullah the level of use of coco glucoside is 6%.(what ratio you recommend for xanthan and guar gums) 

 I see in humble and me that carrageenan is more recommended then xanthan gum for cleanser gel. 

[Fekher]

Thanks @Perry

@RDchemist15 actually I know that almost Carbomer are electrolyte sensitive, just I want to see what it gives then I added slat to see if it will work for adding viscosity but unfortunately I did not (I have some success with system Carbomer,TEA, CAPB, N70  with adding slat it increase viscosity)
  I have as reflex xanthan gum, and cellulose so thanks for the input.

Nice add @chemicalmatt

@Pattsi hhh where are you from? I guess you are not Arabic  because they wrote يرفع من نشاط إعادة توليد الخلايا  wich is soo far from you understood and the product is made in PCR (China)
@ketchito thanks get it. 

[Fekher]

@tecnico3vinia as a reflection make the product in high purity Alcohol(wich has low density) determine the added volume wich is the volume of the solid then  Mesure the weight and that’s all. 

[Fekher]

@ketchito have you an explanation why in shampoo, carbomer can increase the viscosity however in hand gel the opposite?

[Fekher]

@Pharma I know that fatty (alcohol and acid) are not electrolyte my question is if we add them to neutralized carbomer will they give some resistance to carbomer versus electrolyte? 

[Fekher]

@HAL49 yes you have right about there are a lot of types of carbomer but my question about not resistant electrolyte ones did fatty (alcohol/acid) make them more resistant?
 
 About adding stabilizing effect for sure fatty alcohol and acids give more stability for cream product and even about texture not always true that they have bad effect with carbomer, actually the kaolin cream have lovely texture and for sure stearic acid made the emulsion more stable.

@starlord13 as you said total active equal to  level of use of surfactant * concentration
As example for N70 if the level of use is 10% then active surfactant is =70*0.1=7

@Dazed all ingredients listed can help however it is really waste using EO for shoes. 

[Fekher]

You are welcome @Abdullah

Take a look @Cdsgames https://www.paulaschoice.com/expert-advice/skincare-advice/skin-care-myths/the-ultimate-guide-to-ph-and-your-skin.html

@Abdullah generally hair wax  is a product has highest viscosity ,  fix instantly so no needed time for evaporation  as gel then it gives some matte finish. Is that answer for your question ? 

[Fekher]

 Yes right @Farah did you try pectine it is also natural alternative? 

[Fekher]

@Farah I guess it will be fine using high stiring and tea sieve. 

[Fekher]

No problem @Abdullah if you need help for such category i’am here????. 

[Fekher]

@farah did you know the gelifying agent in 

Kinky curly curling custard? It seems for me intersting

[Fekher]

@starlord13 yes good idea go on. 

[Fekher]

Thanks @Anca_Formulator for the video really interesting @Farah I guess even your initial product viscous it will work just add gum bit by bit then other idea in my mind just use half of the total amount of water for flaxseed then the other half to dilute the gum then mix both. 

[Fekher]

Fine @Abdullah whatever nice share from you and wish any one can give us explanation about that. 

[Fekher]

Thanks a lot @MarkBroussard 

[Fekher]

@MarkBroussard get it about affinity but the question will be why the pH of surfactant decreased moderately?
