I have to try this. I have long, super thick (dense) hair that is fairly fine and is now turning into a lovely shade of gray. I have always shied away from anything that promotes volume and so glad to know this would work well.
I like how this turned out. I still don't understand how to formulate my own shampoo bar. The recipe I use, from the workshop I joined, has citric acid which takes time to melt. The solution has to be at a certain temperature too before the pour, it's kind of annoying coz it starts to solidify by then. 😅
First let me say you are absolutely wonderful I enjoy your teaching and the fact that you keep it real my question is when I add my water portion of my conditioner I put a lot of additives in there that I water-soluble Is there a way to incorporate it into the bar
As a former hairstylist, I loathe heavy waxes as it just builds film on the hair and weighs it down. What do you recommend to use in place of any waxes (ewax, etc)?
Hey! That's so interesting because I tend to not like waxes either, but my stylists always give me waxes to use. Because cetyl and cetearyl alcohol are so firm, you could eliminate the wax and sub in either of those fatty acids in their place and still get a firm bar.
By synthetic shampoos, do you mean the ones with surfactants like sodium cocoyl isethionate etc? One major reason why many people like those over the ones with actual soap and why they are gaining popularity is the pH. Soap has a really high pH, and while skin recovers from that quickly, hair doesn’t. I know some people use apple cider vinegar rinses after a soap shampoo, but not everyone wants to. And many people are left with a sticky residue from soap. The ones with other surfactants can have a lower pH, closer to what our scalp and hair would otherwise have, and leave no sticky residue.
There are so many interesting studies both debunking your claim and supporting it, in equal parts. Everyone’s hair is different, and many people have zero problem with cold process shampoo. Others don’t. Gotta pick what’s right for you!
Hey! I sure do! My website is currently offline however as I needed a break from the retail stuff and took this as an opportunity to rebuild the site. Should be back up soon!
Hello!! Is it OK in this recipe to sub beeswax instead of candelilla? I'm ordering what I need but I have beeswax on hand. 😊 Also I am loving all the recipes you provide!
Because she formulates them herself, it’s her work put into it, why give her “ business” away? I know, I want the conditioner bar recipe too, lol, I’m struggling formulating a conditioner bar. Thank you @Soap & Clay for your work and information, very inspiring ❤️
@@thedrunkengardenernb thank you for your nastiness….. but my glasses broke and I can’t see the scale…… why make comments like that on here!? Oh yeah you must be a drunken gardener 😳😐🙄
Would love it if you would make a book of all your great recipes.. I’ll be patiently waiting for it’s release. Thanks for all you teach us... Therese
I'd buy that book too!
For sure…me too ❤
The end is just me trying to figure out how to make the bars look sorta nice on camera. I’m a disaster I love it

@Soap & Clay thank you 😊 🙏 I was hoping I could do that! I'm on a budget and I didn't want to use too much inventory up formulating.
How do we use these solid conditioners? Apply its on wet hair for 5 min, then rinse the off ?
BTMS is synthetic, it's brilliant, especially in hair care, I use it a lot. However it isn't natural, nor naturally derived.
I have a love hate relationship with conditioner bars, yet i keep formulating them. Would you say a solid condition bar is also a lotion bar.
My hair has started thinning. Im guessing due to stress but i definitely need some help
Just discovered you I am blessed do you have this recipe on writing?
This is so cool 😎 thanks 😊 🙏
Can you add clays or powers to this conditioner bar?
How much does it cost to start making these??
Why should you put optephen in this if it dosent contain water? It it because it will come in contact with water and the oils are unsuponified?
It’s because it will come in contact with water, correct. Always your call as to whether or not you included something, though.
@@MrsSoapAndClay ok thank you so much! 😊
May I know the ingredients and its amount?
Can I buy this from you, do you ship out online

Can I use soy wax instead of candelilla wax?
Hmm. I dunno! I’ve never done so, but that doesn’t mean much of anything because I just don’t work with soy wax much. If you try, let me know!
what is the name of the preservative?
she used Optiphen ND, Ill likely use Optiphen Plus because that is what I have
