    October 25, 2018 at 1:12 pm in reply to: hair product wich gives smoothing and fixation effects

    @Chemist77 really intresting job and from my research even AMP will effect for flaking effect and for that effect it gives better resultats compairing to other neutralizers (TEA , NaOh, KOh…).
     Actually from researching i find out that there are a lot of fixatives hair agents other then pvp and most attractive ones for me are some polyquaternuim so have you an idea or experiences about polyquaternuim hair fixatives  and i wanna know theire stability with carbomer ? i did some research about that and i find that may some of polyquaternuim are stable with carbomer …

    @Gunther thanks for your interesting ideas , i have idea about BTMS however i will make research about CETAC.
    @Chemist i already make a hair gel-cream using oil at 10% level and i used also pvp and neutrelized carbomer so the professionels said to me that the fixation effect is good however i did not concentrate for smoothing effect , so do you think that including oil will decrease the solidification hair effect according to your experiences?

    @chemistgr1 For soap you can use TEA to have lower ph compairing to KOh and NaOh you can also increase to degree of greasing to have softer soap but increasing greasing will make liquid soap opaque , about foam you just need to use the adequat oils to give better foam no needs to have any other add.

    @BeardlyGentlemen actually peg 8 and peg400 are clearly different , then it will be better and easier to work for your formula just try what i told you i guess you will have better resultats.

    October 16, 2018 at 10:25 am in reply to: Defoamer Ethanol vs isopropanol ?

    @Gunther actually my poade dosen’t need really defoamer cause it has very low foam , just to have an idea about defoamer i asked. Also i’am against using alcohol generally but in low dose “as defoamer level i guess ”  it will be great cause alcohol has antibacterien effect and did not has important drying effect.

    @ngarayeva001 i already use zinc oxide it gives whitennig effect however it also give drying effect and i don’t think so you want last effect for you product.
     I used corn stratch for wittening effect and i’am satified by it you can  try it if you want.

    @Kingstone it is hair pomade about details just ceteareth 25 in formulation can make bubbles so no need saying other ingredients.

    October 13, 2018 at 3:18 pm in reply to: Problem Hair Gel Pomade !! Help me

    @ferrysetiawan about your formula i can see that the % of perfume 3 is too high so i sugguest to decrease it to 0,5 % , then you will not need to use tow solublizers you just need to use one polysorbate 20 or peg 40 at % equal at 2. the % of pvp should be higher for better fixation, for ceteareth 25 may you need to increase the % for better viscosity.

    October 11, 2018 at 7:51 pm in reply to: Hair pomade help

    @gnomebeard actually your formula is something new for me thanks for that , however the fact of having oil phase will resist the drying effect of clay but the question 15% as total clay will not make residu in hair i doubt in that.
    @BeardlyGentlemen no decreasing the % of cetearth 25 will decrease the viscosity and the fixation effect so you should not increase it according to me. However  try to reduce MPG 40 to 2% and don’t make glycerin and MPG for me it will be better. Attending your experience and your reply.

    @Gunther actually silicone has many different products so may some are harmfull and some are not .
    About solubilizing perfume maybe isopropyl mystirate can be an adequat solublizer in silicone blend  according to a personnel resaerch.

    @BeardlyGentlemen actually i find your % of cetearth is good and adding wax will may adding shining effect not decreasing it.

    @BeardlyGentlemen that is good new the increasing of fixation , actually in presence of Ceteareth 25 i don’t think you will able to reduce a lot shining effect . About clay i don’t think that it will be good idea for hair pomade and it will may reduce the viscosity , fixation effect and even drying hair.

    you are welcome @ngarayeva001 and this is a good new  for you.
     So as conclusion  you can use a blend in % between 0,4 and 0,7 to preserve your emulsion.
