Question
Can oil be added to Sulfate Free Shampoo Base (pH 7, Clear, Foaming), and what is the maximum recommended percentage?
Answer
Adding Oil to Sulfate Free Shampoo Base
Yes, you can add oils or other nourishing ingredients to the Sulfate Free Shampoo Base (pH 7, Clear, Foaming). The product description indicates that you can incorporate ingredients to nourish the skin or hair as needed.
However, the product description does not provide a specific recommended percentage for adding oils to this base. Adding oils to a clear, foaming surfactant base can potentially affect its clarity and reduce foaming. It is recommended to test by adding a small percentage of oil (start with a very low amount, perhaps 0.5-1%) and observe how it impacts the base's appearance, stability, and foaming properties.
