  • Then you can add in the DL panthenol & Niacinamide and mix until it fully dissolves.

  • Add in the rest of the ingredients in phase B making sure to add the Sodium Carbomer last. 

  • Sprinkle in the Sodium Carbomer while mixing. You will notice the formula thickens just slightly or the Sodium Carbomer will clump up. This is normal. Cover with plastic wrap and let it sit overnight to let the Sodium Carbomer fully hydrate. 

  • The next day you can check and adjust the pH, but the pH should be around 6, which is perfect.

Honey Hair Conditioner Formula;


Phase A

74.9% Distilled Water


Phase B

4% BTMS 50 (INCI: Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetyl Alcohol (and) Butylene Glycol)

Directions;

  • In a sanitized heat safe container, combine all ingredients in phase A & mix until the Sodium Phytate is fully dissolved. 

  • In another sanitized heat safe container, combine all the ingredients in phase B. 

  • Tare scale and weight phase A and write down how much it weighs. We will be heating this up and some of the water will evaporate and we will need to replace that after its heated.

  • Cover both phase A & B with aluminum foil and place them in a water bath (A water bath is a pan filled with an inch or so of water. Place your pan on your Stove Top on medium heat.)

  • Let both phase A & B heat to 70°C / 158°F. Make sure everything is melted in phase B.

  • While phase A & B are heating we can work on phase C

  • Combine the Honeyquat, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, VegeKeratin & DL panthenol first and mix until the DL panthenol is fully dissolved. Then you can add in the rest of the ingredients in phase C. 

  • Once phase A & B are heated to 70°C / 158°F and everything is melted.  Remove phase A from heat and weigh it, replacing any water that has evaporated with distilled water.

  • Remove phase B from heat

  • Pour phase A into phase B and mix with an Immersion Blender

  • Come back and mix periodically as the conditioner cools, but don’t mix again once it has started to thicken.  

  • Once the conditioner has cooled to 40°C / 104°F you can add in the phase C ingredients and mix.

  • Check and adjust pH if needed (mine didn’t need adjusted) (keep between 4-6)

  • Pour into desired container.

  • I used this 21 oz Pink Pump Bottle
