We are now stocking BTMS 50 due to so many requests from our customers – if you are new to making Hair Conditioners you’ll notice there are two BTMS 25 and BTMS 50 – let me explain why we use them and what the difference is.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The numbers refer to the activity – ie how much conditioning or cationic activity there is. \u00a0We introduced BTMS 25 (Conditioning Emulsifier) to Australian crafters back in 2005-2006, and it transformed the way quality crafters could make beautiful hair conditioners. \u00a0It is still one of Jude’s favourite products to make!<\/p>\n

Our original Conditioning Emulsifier’s name has changed to: BTMS 25 (Conditioning Emulsifier 25) – other than that there is no other change to it or it’s pricing!<\/p>\n

Our new product, BTMS50 is called, yes, BTMS 50 (Conditioning Emulsifier 50)!<\/p>\n

BTMS50 has, you guessed it 50% activity – therefore it is double the quat conditioning power and is easily manipulated to be less conditioning if you prefer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

QUERY: \u00a0CAN I SWITCH ONE FOR THE OTHER?<\/p>\n

Well, yes, however, remember if your hair does not need extra conditioning, the formula (if it is ours) needs to have the amount reduced and a co-emulsifier or another ingredient to replace the celearyl portion. \u00a0You’ll then need to test it and tweak to suit your hair.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Making Hair Conditioner<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

They are used in exactly the same way – \u00a0you heat the Water Phase in one jug, and the Oil Phase in another jug and then combine with stirring.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After this emulsion has cooled to around 35\u00b0C, you add the goodies such as Hydrolyzed Proteins, Herbal Extracts, Essential Oils and Preservative<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A thorough stir combines these and voil\u00e0! \u00a0You have beautiful hand crafted Hair Conditioner.<\/p>\n

Pour or pipe into bags.<\/p>\n
