"Excellent Product!" COMMENTS:  This stuff is awesome! I've been looking for a non soap surfactant for use in shampoo (hair soaps are just too alkaline for my hair) and needed something gentle and sulfate free. This product is perfect. The phone registered at about 6, which works wonderfully for hair, as did not irritate my scalp or leave my hair feeling crunchy. Thank you WSP!!!!!

"I plan to make the shampoo bars in the April 2018 Handmade magazine. I have SCI powder/granules instead of the SCI noodles. The moisturizing shampoo bar calls for 4.05 oz noodles. Would you recommend the same 4.05 ounces of the powder. Since the noodles are being melted it makes sense to use equal substitution. I understand my result could be different but any advice is appreciated" Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Jannalynn   |   July 31, 2018 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer Yes, we would recommend using the same amount of the SCI powder in your recipe.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: August 01, 2018 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

"If using SCI noodles along with Bubble Up in an oil only recipe is a preservative required? " Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: n/a   |   May 21, 2018 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer It depends on where the finished product will be used. A preservative is not needed to preserve the product if the product is used and kept away from water. If the product will be exposed to water, such as a shampoo bar, then we recommend using a preservative.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: June 25, 2018 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

"I have never ordered this product so I don't know the texture. I'm looking to use it bath bombs. How can I convert it to a powder form for bath bombs or will it work in the noodle form? Is it a good replacement for SLSA to create the foaming action?" Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Kim   |   March 10, 2018 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer You can grind it in a coffee grinder to make a powder. If doing this, we highly recommend wearing a mask. Or you can chop up the noodles into very small pieces and blend into your bath bomb mixture.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: March 29, 2018 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No
