Hair Spray Formulation for Permed Hair (Detangling, Shine)
Question
I would like to inquire about a hair spray formulation for permed hair. Could you please recommend the ingredient ratios?
I want the hair to be detangled and shiny. My hair is permed, and I want beautiful curls.
I am not sure if the ingredients I have selected are sufficient:
- Pure Keratin™ (Natural, Sheep Wool)
- SiliWater™ (Dimethicone Copolyol)
- Mild Preserved Eco™ (Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol)
- Water
Are these ingredients enough for the desired properties?
Answer
Here is a suggested hair spray formulation using the ingredients you provided, designed to help with detangling and adding shine to your permed hair:
Hair Spray Formulation
- Pure Keratin™ (Natural, Sheep Wool): 2%
- SiliWater™ (Dimethicone Copolyol): 2%
- Mild Preserved Eco™ (Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol): 1%
- Water: 95%
Total: 100%
Function of Ingredients:
- Pure Keratin™: Helps to strengthen hair and add shine.
- SiliWater™: A water-soluble silicone that provides excellent detangling properties, adds shine, and conditions the hair without heavy build-up.
- Mild Preserved Eco™: Acts as a broad-spectrum preservative to keep the product stable and safe for use.
- Water: The base of the spray formulation.
Instructions:
- Weigh or measure all ingredients accurately.
- Add Pure Keratin™, SiliWater™, and Mild Preserved Eco™ to the water.
- Stir or shake gently until all ingredients are fully dissolved and dispersed.
- Pour the mixture into a spray bottle.
Note: This formulation focuses on conditioning and shine, which will help make your curls look healthier and less tangled. While it will enhance the appearance of your curls, it does not contain styling polymers that provide strong hold for curl definition. If you require more hold, you might consider adding a small percentage of a suitable styling polymer.
Always test the product on a small area of hair first to ensure compatibility and desired results.
