Shampoos

Shampoo is the most widely used product in modern hair care. Unlike conditioners or styling aids, which are used by segments of society, everyone uses a shampoo of one type or another.

One of the modern myths of modern hair care is that a product must have heavy suds to clean. False. A product can be suds free, and still make hair squeaky clean. Most commercial products must cater to this myth of heavy suds in order to meet consumer acceptance.

A trend found over the past decade has seen the growth of large multinational companies dominating all facets of the hair care industry. Companies that traditionally have made inexpensive mass market brands now own the trendy professional brands as well. This consolidation has seen a trend towards commonness, with brands being practically identical except for fragrance, name and packaging.

By making your own Shampoo, you are in control of the ingredients that you use and can customize your products to meet specific needs. We make available a wide variety of commercial quality and natural ingredients giving you choice and the ability to make these products both economically and easily. Our selection of recipes are a start for those just beginning and can be easily adjusted to suit your individual hair care needs.

In our formulations we incorporate surfactants manufactured by the Stepan Corporation. Manufactured from coconut oil and other vegetable oils, the surfactants we use give the consumer the best quality and cleansing ability without containing harsh additives such as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. To the surfactants we add water, plus a variety of different ingredients such as proteins, vitamins and moisturizers, all blended together to create shampoos that not only cleanse but also moisturize and help maintain healthy hair and scalp.
