Keratin is what I would call a “claims” ingredient. The strategy companies do is make a standard straightener, add a small amount of keratin and then call it a keratin hair straightener. But the keratin doesn’t really have much effect.Excuse me, of course

I don’t know if it is because of problem in my English or your English has problem too because i don’t understand a lot of what you say correctly.
Ask your supplier how much active surfactant does it have.
You may need a non-ionic surfactant too.
And I don’t know how are you homogenizing a 60ml batch.
Hi thanksMy point is clearWhat field are you in?Because I think you did not understand my problems correctly. -
Abdullah said:Just be careful you don’t hurt yourself with your products or ingredients.
I know your situation right now.
I was in your situation when i started thinking about making cosmetic products.Let’s make a few things clear
You don’t know anything right now. (With respect)
The products you make will be worse than any product in the market. Accept this fact
If you want to make a good product, study some reputable books in cosmetic or take a reputable course like the course from this website to make learning faster and easier for you.
Or purchase a good formula from an good chemist with a good price and save yourself a lot of time and money and everything.
There are a lot of good chemist here an most of them would sell you formula.And last, try and test and try and test until you make something good. That is how we learn and improve.
I have made about 400 different versions of shampoo that was not as good as what i am currently making.
I have washed my hairs several times a day, several times to find out the long term effect of it faster.
Like this my other products.Do don’t expect your first product sample to be the best for the next of your life.
Hi thanksBut I have a master’s degree in organic chemistry myself.I will try my best.I used ingredients that are found in many cosmetic productsI also set the percentages based on the allowed percentages.I am looking for a solution.Do not seek comparison.Thank you, I’m careful.I work for a cosmetics company. -
In your opinionHair straightenersWhat surfactants are used instead of formaldehyde?I have a problem with the production processNo one can help this process?
-
Hello, thank you for your good commentsBut to make a hair straightener using cationic surfactants, I do not know if a few surfactants are used, it should be a few percent in a total volume of 50 grams.When I increase them, stickiness is created, when I use them less, it does not give the desired result.
-
Abdullah said:That is good that the results were somewhat better than before.
What do you want now?
Hi thanksIn the production process, I do not know how much cationic surfactant should actually be used for, say, 60 grams of sample.I read that 2.5% of cetermonium chloride should be consumed as much as one person concentrate.How much is this single concentrate 30 ml? -
Abdullah said:Several people did guide you on what to add or remove or change the percentage.
Did you make the changes as they guided you?
What was the result?
Hi, thanksYes, thank you allThe result was somewhat good and I also reduced the amount of isothiazolinone.But the results are different on each hair. I think it depends on the sex of the hair and the dryness and fat of the hair. -
HelloCan anyone really guide me through the construction process?

Abdullah said:One hair straightening ingredient is formaldehyde that i think doesn’t have any alternative.
Another way is conditioner with silicones.
Hi, thanksYes, I know, but in making hair straightenersThis substance is not used in Brazilian keratins for hair straightening.I have read in many articles that thioglycolic acid or glycolic acid or glyoxylic acid has been used instead. -

Hello Mr. Perry, thank youYes, keratin protein only seems to play a small role in my opinion.Because above 15% makes hair brittle.I have trouble in the manufacturing process of exactly what to combine with what.For how longDo I have to put keratin and cationic surfactants on the temperature and stir and then dry them and mix them with silicone and oil and other emollients or not? Is it another way or not …I wanted to get help from Mr. Matt. You can introduce me to him. He has experience in this field. -
ketchito said:@Zahra I understand you want to make a hair straightener. For that, the common actives are thioglycolates and carbocysteine (although not as potent as thioglycolates). Formaldehyde was used in the past, but has been withdrawn due to safety issues, especially for hair dressers.
Hydrolyzed keratin doesn’t perform any significant role in these products. Consider that the ingredient is hydrolyzed in order to the added to a cosmetic, which means, rather than having the full protein (which can have film forming properties), you have smaller pieces (mostly in the form of peptides). They can have many different molecular weights, but they are also more water soluble than the protein,which makes the chance of interacting with hair very low.
I’d advise you to focus more on the straightener’s stability in your formula, and the conditioning agents, rather than the keratin (which you can find from many suppliers).
Hello, thank you, KachitoYes, I want to straighten my hair.I know these substances are necessary, namely thioglycolic acid and carbocysteineBut I have a problem with the manufacturing process and the percentage of consumables.Yes, hydrolyzed creatine is the same as peptide.But according to my study, the presence of cationic surfactants along with silicones play an important role in smoothing and removing hair follicles.But I do not know if I will succeed in making conditioner or hair mask.Even increasing or decreasing the percentage of silicones, oils or emollients and collagen and keratin proteins does not give the right result. -
Hello, thank youGuide me through the process of making keratin and revitalizing hair straighteners?Are the steps of making keratin treatment similar to the steps of making conditioner or hair mask?
-
Abdullah said:Are you a formulator?
Have you made any product before?
I think you have problem with a lot of things.
My suggestion is to study a lot or take a course to learn properly or hire a formulator to make a formula for you that works.
Hi thanksI have a master’s degree in organic chemistry.I work for a cosmetics company.I am responsible for making the formulation.I studied a lot, but found something incomprehensible about it, keratin treatment.Which confused me in making that process.Also for silicone serumsWe have not synthesized many things at the moment.hair maskhair conditioner -
Hi, thanksThank you very much

I’m sorry
caprylyl Metichone -
I have trouble making silicone argan hair serum. I do not know how to combine argan oil, which is a polar oil, with silicone.On the other hand, I do not know what to do to add essential oil or add color?Because its color becomes dull.But without oil and essential oils and dyesIt becomes transparent.I think I should use phenyltrimethicone to combine oils and essential oils with silicon.And I have to use methicillin capril to combine paint with silicone.Do you know the process of this serum? Can you guide me?I think they need a temperature above 250 degrees Celsius to combine.

Thank youI still know that silicone is also a emollient.And ironing does not damage the hair.Cationic surfactants also bind to creatine proteins.Of course, some Brazilian creatine uses formaldehyde, which we do not want to use but are thinking of replacing.Because formaldehyde is cross-linked with creatine proteins.But I want to know how to make keratins like Brazilian creatine without formaldehyde.Because when I go through the production process like a conditioner or hair mask, I do not get the desired result.Creatine and surfactants appear to mix cationic and amino acids such as cysteine and add to silicon and other materials after drying.

Hi. Excuse meI’m In IngredientsHydrolyzed keratinI did not enter

Hello, in these samples, there is also keratin protein, which plays a strengthening role in the hair. The smoothness that the product creates is quarantined for three days, after which the hair is ironed, after which the hair is washed with free sulfate shampoo.My goal is to combine these ingredients to create a smooth hair for several months
