    my former boss was one of the original chemists who worked on that Fudge product many years ago, and still had the original formula: try reducing the beeswax, and adding VP/VA copolymer and PVP K-90, and see how you go

    If you want more hold, you’re going to have to put in less oily material. You might also put in some PVP

    hi, good read:-), I want to ask you guys another question regarding the formula. I am considering changing my surfactants to a blend of :

    Sodium lauroyl sarcosinate & sodium lauryl sulfoacetate, and i want to ask if i can put : “Sulfate Free” on my bottles? 

    All the best and STILL working on my formula 

    :-?

    Hi my name is Asgeir and i am from Iceland and i am currently working on my range of shampoos and conditioners. I have been in hairdressing for over 20 years and i run my own salon with my wife. Apart from the salon i do several outside jobs(concerts,photoshoots etc) and art projects. 

    I am really glad to have the possibility to ask about formulation and to have tips also.
    Hopefully i will not be too annoying :-)
    All the best,
    Asgeir.

    Oh, then i am using way to much oil in my formula:-/  also i am not using SLS surf. i will reduce this and check again. We had this feeling that the shampoo did not clean the hair enough! 

    Thank you @Bobzchemist :-)
