This is my first post in this community and I will be discussing the procedures for making homemade shampoo in a very easy to understand method
Raw materials for 8 litres
The image used is mine
- Sulphonic 250ml
- SLS rice
- Soda ash 75grams
- Glycerin 125ml
- Sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) 75grams
- Nitrosol 75grams
- Foam booster
- Fragrance 500ml
- Color preferably pink
- Texapon 125ml
Nitrosol is the base of the production, it determines the quantity of shampoo to be produced.
Texapon serves as a blender to combine all the chemicals together without separating.
Glycerin helps to make the shampoo mild on the hair.
Fragrance gives the shampoo it's scent
STPP is optional it helps to further increase the content.
Procedures Of production

This is the stage where the main production starts. Here you will use a bowl.that can contain more than the amount you want to produce. In this main bowl first chemical to add is Nitrosol at a slow rate while turning in one direction to avoid lumps.
At this point pour the diluted soda ash, SLS rice, Sulphonic slowly while turning in one direction.

After pouring the aforementioned chemicals the production starts to look like this, it starts to get thick as desired, the more you stir the more thick it becomes.
At this stage you finally add the foam booster, glycerin and color and continue stirring.
Note that before adding color dissolve it first in a small container then add slowly till you attain the desired color then stop to avoid adding too much.
After doing all these your production is ready but you have to wait for 24 hours for everything to settle before packaging.

This is the end product
Excellent without lumps

You can drop your questions too
As a kid, I used to make bubbles using shampoo and water but I never thought of trying to make the shampoos itself and honestly I was never curious about how shampoos are made. Now that I see how you made shampoo in home, it looks easy. Thanks for sharing the work with us.
