Shampoo Recipe Using Decyl Polyglucose

[Guest guest]

Hi Folks,

 

I've been working on some shampoo recipes using Decyl Polyglucose and

here is one very basic one that can be played with and modified until

the cows come home as the old saying goes

 

This makes a good little trial size amount.

 

30 grams Decyl Polyglucose

2.5 grams Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein

2.5 grams Hydrolyzed Oat Flour

30 grams Hydrosol of choice (I used Rosemary and Lavender in equal

parts)

A little squirt of Green Tea Seed Oil

Drops EO to scent

 

I find that this lathers very nicely and leaves the hair VERY shiny.

 

I still need to use a conditioner like I normally would after

shampooing. I have fine straight hair that comes to the middle/lower

part of my back and I ALWAYS need to condition, no matter what shampoo

I've ever used - even the so called " combo shampoo and conditioner "

shampoos.

 

Some modifications I've tried are using a little bit of my handmade

liquid soap in it, and/or adding some silk powder to it, or using a

different hydrosol, or using a different vegetal oil in place of the Tea

Seed Oil, or adding some herbal extracts, etc ....

 

Enjoy - play with it, modify it, have fun with it - and please do share

your results!

Hi Chris,

Was wondering what could I substitue for the oat flour? I have

hydroyzed soy protien and silk protien? could I put that in? where do

you get hydroyzed oat flour.?

 

thanks for the recipe ;-)

Hi Jenn,

 

There is so much you can do with it!

 

You can make bubble bath really easily - just blend some of the decyl

with EO to scent and a touch of water or hydrosol to thin it out and

voila - super simple bubble bath!

 

I'll post more recipes with it as I get a chance to! Just remember - you

can use it in place of SLS in most recipes.

Hi Evemary,

 

Oat flour certainly isn't a requirement, just one of the things that I

used. You can definitely play around and use silk protein instead

 

The hydrolyzed oat flour is available under a couple of names - Angie at

The Herbarie has it under the name VenaSilk.
