Yes, the PH is too high. OK. I will keep experimenting. Thank you

@em88 I adjusted the salt and glycerine, the end product was so runny with a PH of 8. I ended up adding more salt to thicken it up.

I gave your advise a go and it turned out great. Left it overnight to cool down, I hope it thickens because the fragrance I use makes it light.
How about 5% glycerine? It’s for ethnic hair, so I want to make it as gentle as possible. -
3% apple cider.

8% sles
2.5% salt
1.5% cde
0.15 edta
7% glycerine
0.15 methyl
0.15 propyl
Water -
@em88 Does that fact that the sles is not solid matter? i am learning, the process i described above is cold, that is why is started heating the methyl in glycerine coz it was not dissolving. Thanks alot for the guidance. The products are for domestic use at the moment.
I will try your procedure and get back with results. -
@em88 well, where i come from, we have a simple way of making affordable shampoo. Start with sles them mix with sodium chloride(salt). Methyl does not dissolve in distilled water from what i have gathered.
I use methyl in the water phase and the propyl in the chemical phase which includes sles, sodium chloride and edta. -
@Belassi apple cider vinegar

Hi @Belassi, thank you, how about benzyl? i was using a 0.2% rate up from 0.1%

@chemicalmatt this worked so well. 48 hours and the emulsion is still stable. Keeping a keen eye as I work on improving the texture.
