Hot Process Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) Shampoo Soap Bar
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- Welcome to my ACV Shampoo Soap video! This video demonstrates my take on Liz Ardlady’s famous ACV shampoo bar recipe posted on her Soapy Stuff blog back in 2014. Somehow Liz stumbled on the idea of using vinegar instead of water for the lye solution in her hair washing soap - and it works!
Liz’s original recipe and post can be found here: lizardladysoapi...
Here are the ingredients I used for this soap:
Lye solution:
120g apple cider vinegar (I used homemade apple vinegar)
70g sodium hydroxide (3% superfat calculated into the recipe)
Oils:
200g canola oil
100g coconut oil
100g olive oil
50g castor oil
25g cocoa butter
25g sunflower oil
Extras:
62g additional ACV to add at the end of the cook
30g essential oil. I used 20g rosemary and 10g tea tree.
This soap can also be made using the cold process soap making method. I just chose to make this one as a hot processed soap.
New to soap making? This is important!
Sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide (lyes) used in soap making, in granular or flake form or in solution with water/other liquids, as well as raw soap batter, are highly corrosive and require careful and attentive handling and the proper use of personal protective equipment.

From the moment I saw this I wanted to make some. I have very fine hair, I find that this ACV shampoo bar is excellent for my hair and everyone else in my family. No need for conditioner, our hair looks and feels shiny and healthy. Thank you ELLY for your time and expertise, I for one greatly appreciate it.
Thank you May!
I am excited to try this as well. I have super blonde, baby fine, but extremely thick hair. It would be really great to have a shampoo bar that doesn’t leave my hair greasy OR dried to bits. I have made several now and I just haven’t found the correct combo.
We need more shampoo bar videos 🥺💚 you’re awesome!
I've been making my own soap for quite few years and I watched A LOT of vids at the beginning on how to make soaps and I still enjoy watching but I never seen anyone using ACV in soap 😊shampoo 😃 now I wanna make one 😃 glad I found your channel I watched some of your vids and subscribed 😊💖🙏
Thank you - check out the link to Liz Ardlady's original post in the description box - she explains it all! :)
Thank you again for showing your step by step guide for shampoo soap making. I love this idea as you dont need to spend a lot of money on shampoo and conditioner,plus there is NO PALM OIL added to the shampoo making,and less land fill. Green Blessings to you always.
Thank you!
Thank you for another great video. I'm having a bit of a laugh to myself. I just watched this video with the sound turned off as I often do when I don't want to disturb my husband with the sound. I really enjoyed watching the process and pausing to read the instructions. Not till I read the comments did I know there was no narrative. Ha ha. Your videos are exceptional for their lack of visual and audio clutter. Your instruction is always well prepared and clear. Thank you, again.
Thank you Deanna, that's really wondeful feedback. I appreciate you taking the time. These videos have been a real learning curve for me, but I receive a lot of positive feedback so I think I'm on the right track! I will continue to learn and develop no doubt as I continue with my video making. Thanks again.
Loved the bird sounds in the background!
If only I could like this comment twice.
I have found you just recently. I must say that you are the best teacher. You explain so meticulously each and every aspect. You take so much care to put it on paper and white board showing how to calculate. I have become a huge fan of yours Elly. Learning a lot from you. A big big thank you.❤👌
Wow! Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, Linda. I'm glad that my videos help you on your soap making journey. I appreciate your support a lot❤
I have become addicted to your video's. Started making soap 3 weeks ago and have been using your recipes. Made up my own recipe yesterday with amla oil as a shampoo bar but this one is my next try. Thanks hun.
I’ve been making and using Liz Ardlady’s shampoo bars for over a year now! Washed my hair with one tonight! Love the recipe and my hair looks and feels great. I use the CP method.
That's great Laurie! I really like the CP version of this soap too :)
What is cp?
@@meg-zy8xv Cold Process
When would you add the second lot of ACV to the process recipie?
I just made this today, finally!! I was waiting til I was almost out of my store-bought shampoo bar. And for a little courage. But all I had to do was watch your video again, thank you so much! You have given me so much knowledge and power through your videos! :)
That's so wonderful Heather, good for you!
Elly's Everyday Thank you!! ❤️
Been mixing acv with my grocery bought shampoo, it was amazing, it makes my hair silky smooth and straight, but then i saw this video, now i am inspired to make my own shampoo, and might as well sell it, thank you very much
Would love to see more shampoo bar recipe videos or this one done as a cold process. I haven't attempted any soap making yet but it's happening very soon! Thanks to your videos
You've just inspired me Sian, thank you!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking thats great to hear, look forward to seeing more fantastic soap from you!
Thank you for this recipe. I found my husband some shampoo bar soap. My son was actually sponsored by bed head at one time and that’s where they came from. My husband just loves it! Now I can make him some!!!!
Great!
You’re a great teacher. You make it feel less overwhelming.
Thanks so much Kimberly, you're welcome :)
I had to pause the video, because I couldn't tell if the crickets were outside my window or yours!
Haha, yes I think they were mine!
Dear Elly, A couple of months ago I made my first soap. My husband, a retired mechanic, has been helping my son fix his car. They walked in the door looking like true grease monkeys. I told them to try my soap (first use) and it was unbelievable how it cleans. I was more impressed than they were. I had now idea it would work so well. I have collected all the ingredients to make your shampoo and I was wonder what the size of your mold was. Love your videos. Am learning alot. Thank you so much.
Hi Pat, thank you for your lovely comment, I'm always surprised at how well home made soaps clean too. They're even great for getting soap scum off the shower screen! I don't have this mould anymore, I'm sorry, but at a guess I'd say it as about 25-30cm long, 6cm wide and about the same deep. Thanks again :)
Ello how are you? I came across your video, it looks fabulous to make, just wondering on the PH, since I your scalp and body does not have the same PH, how can I test the correct PH on these?
This is the recipe that I have been looking for. Normal ingredients that work and that I can pronounce. THANK YOU.
Thank you. Glad you found what you're looking for :)
Lol I love your comment "ingredients that I can pronounce".. I totally agree with you.. you see all these recipes with a million raw materials... Well if I'd better buy the soap rather than buying all those ingredients!
I really like when DIY videos has the background sound(not any random music). Manly yours that looks heaven and there is no big city noises.
Thank you. I live in a fairly quiet area and we're lucky to have trees and native birds around. Thank you for noticing :)
I made your shampoo bars today, very happy with the result. First time cook in the microwave was fast and interesting, thankyou. Also made the other recipe from lizard lady, love that one too.
My pleasure 😊
Today i made your orange peel soap but i used lemon peel and lemon fragrance and turmeric to colour it yellow...being lemon and all. I have made several of your soaps and they always work out perfectly. I am definitely going to make this shampoo
Thank you so much! I love the sound of your lemon and tumeric soap :)
Keep your eye out I've got a few more soap videos coming out in the next few weeks!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking i can't wait
Its a great video, im so used to people talking way too much in their videos dani was surprise da in dis one nobody was talking, did not say in a bad vibes i really love your video. Blessingso
Thank you, glad you liked it :)
Made your coconut/rice bran oil laundry bars yesterday - a double batch. It came out so nice. Cooked it in a cast iron enamel pot. I too got a great big overflow on medium low stove top (now I know). Finished it in same pot, lidded in a 170' f oven for 2 hrs. Got 8 BIG cubes which I will try out as dish soap too. Tried my 1st liquid soap which has a phenomenal lather & scent but a little cloudy. Definitely will try this bar shampoo recipe as Im finding I like cp process as its so much more straight fwd. Prefer your mellow voice to subtitles. 😊. Thx yet again.
Thanks so much James, appreciate your feedback.
Hi Elly, you have made my lockdown SOproductive with your tutorials, they are simple clear concise and so watchable. Thank you so so much for sharing your amazing recipes and all the guidance too. Can't wait to see more.
Stay safe !! :)
Thank you Farah! I've got some great soap making videos in store for the rest of 2020 :)
I have seen many videos related to soap making, yours are the best of the best, thanks.
You’re a fabulous teacher & the video is clear & precise, makes me want to try this recipe. BUT where’s your lovely voice, kinda miss that. With so much oil in the recipe does your hair feel oily after it dries? And do you have a recipe for hair conditioner? Great job Elly, I always look forward to your videos.
Hi Diane, thanks for your comment. I didn't feel like talking for this one, so I tried something different! Thanks for your feedback though, I'm sure there will be more of my voice in future videos ;)
I don't have a recipe for hair conditioner just yet, but I'm starting to do a lot more research in that area. There is so much to learn! In the mean time I will keep going with the shampoo soap and vinegar rinse, my hair seems to like it.
To answer your question re. the oils, there is no more oil in this recipe than in any other soap recipe, and it is calculated to have just the right amount of excess oil (3% superfat) to leave a tiny bit of oil on the hair without it being greasy. I find that my hair feels good and is shiny with this soap, but if you have really oily hair you might need a lower superfat or a different combination of oils. This is why the recipe is made with a small oil batch (500g - my usual recipes are 1kg or larger). I hope that helps! :)
Yes, wonderful and informative video Elly, but I agree w/ Diane.. I missed your lovely voice. You make everything look so easy; now I want to make soap!
Thank you, I'll be sure to bring the voice back for my next video! ;)
I missed the narration too, but rather enjoyed the low level soundscape in the background. As usual the instructional aspect was exemplary. Thank you Elly. :-)
Thank you. I really appreciate all of your feedback. I felt like being quiet for this one :)
Elly, you are my guru! It was your videos that solved all my doubts and I have started making soaps! Love from India ❤
Thank you so much for this recipe! I’ve been searching for a Simple ACV soap recipe! Your videos are 👍
Thank you Gracy! I really appreciate your comments. You can make this one cold process too if that's easier. You just leave out the extra ACV at the end :)
I should add, I've been using this soap on my hair for weeks now and it's brilliant!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking And for dry hair?
I love your channel so much! But I would recommend if you wanna make shampoo to just make shampoo bars. They only need 5 ingredients and it's the perfect pH for your scalp. 💓🌺 Thanks for all the videos!
Thank you :)
I would be really curious to know if this ends up with a different PH to other soaps. Have you ever tested one of these batches of shampoo soap? Have you used regular soap on your hair before? Is there a noticeable difference to when you use the ACV soap? Also, can you use a lye calculator as normal for making an ACV recipe or it is a different conversion. I am curious because I would think that the ACV would neutralize the lye somewhat making it necessary to use more to be sure that the oils were sufficiently soponified.
Such a good question. No, the ACV barely makes any difference. The pH of this soap is exactly the same as any other handmade CP or HP soap! The texture and feel is slightly different, but the ACV is not a strong enough acid to have any really significant effect. Just a fun experiment really :)
Ooooh!
I've infused oils for soap making. I've decocted herbs in the water for soap making. But ACV!
This is my next soap project.
New sub. Thanks.
Thank you! You're very welcome :)
I do this.. I thought just me. To me it feels lovely
I just made this today. It was straight-forward and I had all the ingredients on hand except the sunflower oil - used avocado instead. Have done hot process soap before but not ever in the microwave. It was fairly quick except my microwave took quite a bit more tries to make it frothy (like 6x). Anxious to try this out on my hair. Thanks for the post!
You're welcome, thanks for your comment. Sounds like you had fun with it :)
Can I use the double boiler instead of the microwave please? Elly you are the best teacher ever ❤
Hi Elly! Can you use this recipe for CP soap and let it cure? Just found your Chanel last night I subscribed and watching everything 🤓
Thank you, and yes, you can! In fact I've made this recipe CP and I preferred it over the HP version :)
And thank you for your support!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking hi elly! Thanks for sharing! I have been looking for a shampoo bar recipe for some time now! How long should we cure it?
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking What was the difference|?
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking if I make this cp, do I omit the 62g of ACV you saved for the end? Or do I add it with the rest?
Wow!! I've never seen soap in the microwave. I loved it
Great! It's something novel :)
Hi Elly. I’ve been enjoying your videos! Would you recommend dedicated equipment for soap making? (One stick blender for soap and one for food?)
If you can, it's good. Makes it a bit easier. But if not, you can just use the same equipment for soap and food, you just have to be sure you've got everything absolutely cleaned perfectly otherwise your food could taste a bit soapy! No harm done though :)
Elly's Everyday thanks, Elly!!
I'm really looking forward to trying this! I'm also obsessed with your flat wire whisk, it looks perfect for soapmaking.
It's very cool. I wish I could find them again! Had it for years.
Great explanation ! I have a few questions 1) Is there any difference in quality of HP Soap and CP soap ? (As HP soap is forced for a quicker saponification where CP soap takes it longer ) Do they give equal benefits for our skin ?
2) Can we make 100% olive oil HP soap?
3) what would be the curing period for 100 % Olive oil HP soap ?
Thanks Dr! The main differences are cosmetic, HP soaps have that rustic look, and obviously saponify faster. Yes, 100% olive oil soap is beautiful made with HP. I always cure my HP soaps for about 4 weeks, however it depends on the water amount used in the recipe.
Thanks 🙏
I can't wait to try this!!!! But I miss hearing your soothing voice as we go along. :-)
Thanks Kelli, this is an old video of mine :)
Hey Elly! Could you make this soap with CP with the vinegar and lye?
I’m not a fan of the texture of HP, I already wash my hair in home made soap 🧼
Yes, this is great made as CP!
Excuse my newbie question, but what is CP, I see it in another comment. Could it be Cold processed?? no idea
@@lms2336 yes cold processed 😊
Спасибо, вы для меня огромная помощь!!! Желаю хорошего рождества.
You're welcome. Merry Christmas to you too! :)
What is the final pH of the soap? Cause you added some extra ACV at the end and I wonder if it had become lower
(sorry if my grammar is wrong, English is my second language)
Hi Lisa, the final pH is about 8-9, as it is for any handmade soap recipe. The ACV is not acidic enough to really affect the pH of soap - the lye is far more alkaline than the vinegar is acidic :)
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking could you use citric acid to make it less alkaline? Or would that interfere with the efficacy of the soap?
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking Actually Vinegar is only 3 points away from equal in acidity than lye is caustic on a scale. Vinegar has an acidity of around 2.5 and Lye is around 11 as a base. So if you correct based on these numbers you end up around 6-7 which is neutral PH, possibly even on the acidic side. That doesn't mean that soap will be acidic, that's impossible, but rather that it could be higher in superfat.
@@saborguerito Not exactly the whole story...the molarity (related to concentration) of the substances play a part in the reaction as well. We're talking about roughly 5% ACV solution vs pure NaOH. Different reaction if we were mixing both pure compounds in the presence of water.
Just made this cold process style this evening. Excited to try it out! Thank you Elly!!!
how did you make this cold process style?? I am just starting out and would love to make cold. I have make her easy bar soap and I love it
Thanks for the video. I've been making my own CP soap for years. I plan to try this shampoo bar next. I was using my own soap and ACV rinse on my hair but after a few months it seemed dry. I'm hoping this bar does the trick! Where do you purchase your bulk essential oils?
Thanks, I hope it works for you. I don't use soap on my hair anymore, it makes my scalp itch! Lots of people are fine with this soap though, so it's worth a try.
I buy my bulk EO's online, mostly from Escentials of Australia.
Elly, I‘ve only recently come across your channel and I want to thank you for the great content.
I‘m currently learning about soap making because I want to do a little workshop with my mum (as a Christmas present). We‘ll definitely try this recipe!
Thank you so much, that's great to hear :)
Have you seen my other soap making videos too? I've got some new ones I've just released in the last few weeks (and one just yesterday!) and some older ones I designed for beginners. You can check out the list here if you haven't seen them th-cam.com/channels/qsvmrjWY7fPcKqWHnYVTMA.htmlvideos
Hey Elly, I was interested in exchanging some of the oils to tailor this recipe to my specific hair needs. I used the same quantities, however broke them down & substituted. Would like combination and measurements work for this type of soap when cold pressed?
200g olive oil
100 g coconut oil
100g avocado oil
30g castor oil
15g mango butter
10g cocoa butter
25g jojoba oil
20g sunflower oil
Hi Cynthia, I'm not an expert on what oils are best for hair, but I guess it's worth a try! Did you run the new recipe through a soap/lye calculator? You would definitely need to do this to make sure the lye amount is correct for the oils you are using.
I have a video that shows how to calculate your own recipes here:
How to formulate and calculate your own soap recipes
th-cam.com/video/AqKxin0q1bM/w-d-xo.html
And here is a link to the SoapCalc calculator if you want to check your recipe: soapcalc.net/calc/SoapCalcWP.asp
Yes I calculated it, for 3% excess fat I'd need 68g of lye and for 5% 67g lye. I'm just trying to make sure it'd be safe and a good mixture.@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking
It looks like a good mixture to me, but the only way to know for sure is to try it. Good luck with it!
I just found your videos a few days ago and tried a few of your recipes, thank you for explaining the process, you make it look so much easier. I like that you share not only your videos but your recipes too. I made this one and also the HP carrot one, and one of the 4 soap video ones. Cant wait to tried them!
Wow, that's brilliant! Thank you :)
How long do you cure your soaps? I am thinking that because of the high OO in them.
I always enjoy watching your soap making videos. But I must ask, why you didn't use a crockpot? And if I wanted to use rosemary infusion water with the apple cider vinegar could I use half of each product then add the lye? Tanks for the lessons, I have been learning a lot!
Hi, I do normally use a crock pot for my hot process soaps, I just chose to demonstrate a different method with this video. And yes, your strategy for the rosemary lye solution sounds good to me!
I enjoy your videos a lot , I been making soap for personal and family uses for a several years , I learned a lot from you .
You are a great teacher . Thank you
Thank you Shahla, you're welcome!
Thank you for this great video! Can it be cooked in a slow cooker?
Yes, it sure can! This is my other HP video that shows how I make HP soap in a slow cooker th-cam.com/video/4-2PM2NxlgM/w-d-xo.html
I love your tutorial Elly because you are detailed. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Beautiful thank you for this tutorial. If I were to make this CP I wouldn't need to add the additional 62g of AVC, correct? Thank you :)
That's right, you could just add it all into the lye solution.
Thank you so much for the reply :).
You're welcome :)
Great video! Instructions are clear and easy to follow. Thank you mate
Thanks Simon, you're welcome :)
So ACV doesn't neutralize the lye like regular vinegar does
This ACV is the same strength as any regular vinegar, but in this amount it is not strong enough to neutralise the lye. Vinegar is far less acidic than sodium hydroxide is caustic, so it cannot be used to fully neutralise lye.
🌟༻🅹🅰🆈🅵🅰༺ ✓ • 5 years ago I was thinking the same.
Ok - I’m giving this a go with a crockpot......I managed to set it up to coincide with the highlights of the Tour de France re; stirring etc.. So far so good 👍
Anyhoo 🙄 - 1 hour plus later I'm not sure if I'll be doing this again? For the amount of work that you put in I don't think it's worth it. Cold process is definitely more satisfying and easier to control.
However it does make a very nice bar of soap so I'm giving it a go CP just for a comparison.
I agree Trisha! I love CP for the same reason. It's very quick and direct. I love the smooth finish of HP too :)
Can i use regular acv or with the mother...?
Yes, in fact you can use any kind of vinegar.
yes vinegar is kniwn to be germ-killing so, it is good to know from you madam ellen that it could also be incorporated with soap bar making to make shampoo. I am now excited to make also mine and imitate all of your ingredients so as not to make mistakes. I have no oven but I'll try making in a double boiler. thanks for the video madam ellen. more power to you.
Hi Ellie, I've been having issues with scorching my essential oils in cold process soap. Is the HP method any better? I always end up with very light sent that fades completely away after few weeks of curing and I would prefer not to use the fragrance oils (I ordered one anyway just to try and see the difference but haven't tried it yet). I just found it very disappointing to use expensive EO and then end up with fragrance free soap 😩... thank you for your response 😊.
I'm wondering how your EOs would get scorched with a CP recipe? Are you using hot ingredients? I think if you're having trouble with them lasting in CP then HP won't be any better. What EO's are you using? Some are notorious for not lasting very well in soap. Also if you buy your EO's online from a bulk supplier you'll find it much more affordable.
I made this soap twice. First time I thought I wasn't able but it turned out great. Me and my 2 other friends tried washing their hair with it. One of us doesn't even use vinegar rinse. She says it is the Best even better than shampoo. I still use vinegar rinse. By the way I changed the ingredients a bit.
may I know what you changed in the ingredients?
@@RAMNIKK of course 🤗
I made my own acv then added nettle to 1 liter of my avc waited for 6 months(2months is enough). th-cam.com/video/EE6I9m1AA0s/w-d-xo.html (I can add english informationof how it is made)
I used 200g olive oil
25g castor ol
25g sunflower oil
50 gr cocoa butter
25gr virgin pumpkin seed oil
150gr coconut oil
25gr shea butter
At the end I add 10gr terebinth oil (it is a violent kind of pistacio plant)
Hi Elly, thanks for the video, I loved it! Question, where can I get the wired beater you use to do the frothing of the soap. I will appreciate your info. I want to do soap right away. Thank you.
Hi Norma, I've had this whisk for so long I can't remember where I got it from! You can use any whisk or spoon to stir down the soap.
Thank you Elly. Love your videos
Found this type whisk in housewares. Not all stores carry it. I think it is more professional grade equipment.
It’s a gravy whisk, I think. 😁
Love this! Just getting back to vinegar for hair care and making my own this time. I currently have some lemon and some juniper. I made my first soap yesterday. I’ll have to try this one out soon, but with the crock pot as we don’t keep a microwave anymore.
i love this recipe. Could you do the fluid hot process with this recipe by adding yogurt to smooth it out?
Thank you, yes, I'm sure you could!
Brilliant! I do a LOT of HP recipes and never thought of doing it in the microwave, thank you Elly so much for sharing! Am looking forward to trying this as well. You are a wonderful teacher. Greatly appreciate you! :-)
Thank you! I really appreciate your comments :)
I forgot to add, just make sure you have your soap in a big enough container - microwave HP is easy with some basic precautions :)
Sorry, please what else can I use for canola oil, I dont have it here where I live.
Hi Adrijana, you can swap the canola oil with olive oil in this recipe. I hope you can get olive oil!
Love your demonstration at the end!
Thank you for sharing. Could this same recipe be used in cold process? I have not yet ventured into hot process.
Yes, absolutely it can! Just leave out the second portion of vinegar, blend to a light or medium trace, mix in your essential oils and pour into the mould. I think I'll be making this CP myself next time. Thanks for your question 🙂
Elly's Everyday wonderful. Thanks for replying. 😊
You're welcome!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking Hi, Would you still need to test the ph level if doing this CP?
Your videos are very clear and easy for beginners like me kindly post more videos
Thank you, I will
does this lather like store bought shampoo when in the hair? Thanks.
Yes it lathers very well but because it is soap it feels different in the hair than store bought shampoo. Surfactant shampoos are very different chemically to soap. But yes, it lathers! :)
Thank you Elly for this wonderful recipe and video,. Love your soap making, is so peaceful. I'm going to try this one. Love all your videos!!! Sometimes I think I'm addicted to them. Watch the same sometimes again and again 😂😂😂😂💕💖💝
I can understand that Monica, thank you :)
Except for all oils. I've found my way to make lye soap. Tysm. Cold processed I broke out. 6 weeks later I could touch it mildly. But it was melted down. Little did i know in a jar. It remained soft. But breaking out ended. I think you are my solution. Heat n pour. Though i add some oils. I dont feel like i made it

Thank you Lorena, yes I'm still here! :)
Dear Elly, I love all your videos. You are an amazing teacher. The playlist about formulation is just great. For the first time, I was able to understand better about it. The only thing I still can't get is if shampoo and conditioner bars follow the same rules, and which kind of ingredients should I use to formulate them. I hope you can do something more detail about it. Thank you again to share all your knowledge .. by the way, I also love all about bread from your website. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much Perla, that's wonderful! Shampoo and conditioner bars are quite a different thing compared to regular soap so I haven't ventured down that road just yet. Perhaps someday though!
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking hopefully someday. Thank you Elly. Tell me. Which soap do you recommend to have good hydration for sensitive skin?
I honestly just use 50/50 acv & water mix, my high porosity hair luvs it, this is just a more expensive & time consuming process...I'm sure I'll get the same results but I luv the diy community
Thanks for your comment. Yes I agree there are so many different ways to make this soap.
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking No soap, just liquid acv & water
Oh ok!
@@neva-surrender do you use shampoo? I personally find it too harsh for my scalp! I'm fair, have sensitive skin, and also get exema
Its interesting with the vinegar after cooking. Ive seen people use the sugar water and yogurt (lactic acid) to help thin hot process batter and make it pourable. Some ive seem have gotten it close to the consistency of cold process batter. But I havent acheived that yet. Im not sure what Im doing wrong! haha.
I'm going to try this recipe! I've been wary of shampoo bars becasue of harshness of the alkaline, but this seems like it solves that! I love the crickets in the background :)
I clicked to learn a good shampoo bar recipe (making soap myself since years) and I discovered one of the best ASMR video ever!
Subscribed!
P.S. Do you think that shea butter instead of cocoa butter would be too heavy on hairs?
I just found your channel and am loving what I see. Watching this one I'm thinking what do i need to buy, Woohoo, sunflower oil. This is definitely on my make list. Thankyou for sharing.
Thank you so much. Glad you're enjoying my channel :)
I love watching you make soap!! Hi from Washington state! 💚💚💚
Hello!!
This is exactly what I came here to find! Thank you so much
I think you should do a voice over on this video. It is great but it would be so much better hearing your calming voice.
Thanks, this was an old video :)
Love love the whisk!!!
It's a beauty isn't it!
Look in housewares. Think it is more of a gourmet or professional grade utensil.
more of shompoo soaps plz..... love u
This seems so simple and yet so much more quality than those shampoos @ store
Thank you. Many shampoo bars are made very differently to this. They aren't usually soap but are synthetic detergent shampoos.
So ACV is an acid. Lye is a base. Adding acid to a base effectively cancels out each other. So basically, you just get a soap that is highly superfatted since the ACV neutralized some of the lye. Am I wrong?
Yes, I'm sorry to say that you are. I've answered this many times already, but basically the acid is not strong enough to affect the lye. Lye is extremely caustic, ACV is only mildly acidic in comparison. It doesn't even get close to neutralising the lye.
Muito bom!!! Especial técnica. Precisa de muito domínio para se conhecer as texturas a cada vez que se leva no micro-ondas. parabéns. gratidão!😊💖🙏
Thank you!
Very good!!! Special technique. It takes a lot of mastery to know the textures every time you take it in the microwave. congratulations. gratitude! 😊💖🙏
Thanks for the recipe it looks great. I'm going to try it for sure...Also thanks for not putting music with your video it sure helps to catch everything you show. :) :)
Thank you, that's great feedback Ann :)
You should check out not using glass to mix lye in...I just learned this...
Thanks. Normally I use polypropylene (no.5 plastic) jugs to mix my lye and soap, as per my other videos.
Pls Elly would u formulate liquid soap with the same ingredients
Pls pls pls
NB : l like the cricket sound it is peaceful
Thks so much
Thanks for all your tutorials which are all so helpful.
Have you ever made a cold process shampoo bar?
Yes, this recipe is quite nice made with CP method :)
Hi Elly,
I love your videos. And made some soap too.
I would request you to make a tutorial for shampoo bar . Which contains "amla reetha shikakai" . Amla reetha shikakai have lots of benefits for hair .
Thanks heaps 😊🙏
Hi Elly, thank you for your educational videos. We are newly getting into making our own shampoo bars, and wanted to clarify couple of questions. When using vinegar (acid) don't we have to adjust lye measurement (amount) to account for the vinegar acidity?
Second, do we use same calculator, such as soapcalc that we normally use for regular soap?
Thanks again
Amazing. Can we make shampoo bars using cold process method too? If yes, kindly make a video on that. Also on conditioning bars too. Plsss
I love this! Thank you so much for posting! New subbie. 🤗 Could you post more of these? And, if I wanted to add any herbal powders, how would I go about doing so? Thanks again! 🙏🙏
Hi, thank you for your feedback! Yes I hope to do more soap videos soon. You can easily add herb powders to a recipe like this. I usually add them when I add the essential oils. Thanks again! :)
Found your channel yesterday looking for a Castile recipe and now I am hooked! I love the animal sounds in this video, were they frogs or crickets when you were mixing the oils? Thank you for the wonderful videos and brilliant soap tips
Thank you! I love your photo wiht your cat! My cat is similar looking, but black and white :)
Yes, they were cicadas in the background, similar to crickets. Some times of year they are super noisy here! We have lots of wild birds around too.
Hi, Elly. Thank you so much for making this vedio to help me more understand how to make this shampoo bar!
Would like to know what percentages is this soap lye concentration?
Do you think I can replace the butter with tallow or lard?
Have you ever made goat milk shampoo bar, how do you think of those?
If yes, do i need to change others percentages? Will they works the same?
I'm sorry for so many questions! 😓
I like the ideas that you talking about, use less palm oil, less expensive oil, more local support.
Wonderful thank you so much for sharing. Why don’t you ever check the temperature of your lye solution and your oils before combining please?
I thought we had to keep an eye on having them both at around 110degrees F or lower before combining. Within 10 degrees of each other.
Hi, it depends on your recipe. Most of my soaps are made with olive oil, other soft oils and coconut oil - they can be made at room temperature. It's only if you're using butters, waxes, palm oil etc. that they need to be warmed :)
i Elly - just subscribed and watching your video's you explain thing very well, enjoying them & thank you!
Thank you!
Great video and wonderful recipe! 💕
Thank you!
Hi Elly, I just recently found your channel and love how simple and clear you explained all the soap making process. I will definitely try to make this shampoo bar. Just wondering, can I use the same recipe if I want to make liquid shampoo with koh (following your liquid soap video)? Thanks 🙏
Is the last addition of ACV only to cool the batter before adding EO? Or do they have another role? I am asking because I would like to try this recipe in CP and I wonder if at trace the ACV will cause damage. Otherwise should I simply add EO at trace?
I'm not sure to be honest, this is just Liz Ardlady's method. But I have made it CP and used all of the ACV from the start, it' worked really well!
....thanks! I will be trying this soon...
Enjoy!
