    @Benz3ne.. Hey.
    So best way to maintain the viscosity is to keep the solution in air tight container. Right?
    I also found that shampoo which I have kept in the small bottle with screw cap pack in the month of Feb (before lockdown) almost lost 20% volume after lockdown (July).
    So the best way to minimize the water loss might be to package it sealed. 
    Is that right?

    I also found that after preparing shampoo it’s becoming gel in few days when kept in open , how can I stop that.
    Do we have to store in air tight 
    Container just after completion so that it won’t become gel.

    @ketchito.. Hi
    I have tried the ratio of 3:1:.5, the shampoo is getting good thick and seems like no way to add salt.
    Is adding salt mandatory to solution? 
    How can I reduce the viscosity now?
