Ingredient Breakdown:
Hydrolyzed Proteins (2.5%): Hydrolyzed proteins are water-soluble proteins that penetrate the hair shaft and help to rebuild and strengthen the hair. They add moisture, improve hair elasticity, and leave the hair feeling softer and more manageable. Common types include Hydrolyzed Silk, Hydrolyzed Rice, Hydrolyzed Baobab or Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, both of which work well in hair masks.
Fragrance (0.2%, optional): Adding fragrance to your hair mask enhances the sensory experience. Choose a mild, hair-safe fragrance that complements the overall feel of the mask.
Cream Base (97.3%): Our Cream Base provides a rich, moisturizing foundation for your hair mask. It hydrates, smooths, and adds shine to the hair, ensuring the mask delivers excellent results.
Hydrating Hair Mask Recipe:
This simple recipe combines Hydrolyzed Proteins with our Cream Base to create a nourishing mask that helps to moisturize and strengthen the hair. The Hydrolyzed Proteins penetrate the hair shaft, improving its texture and promoting smooth, shiny results.

Instructions:
Combine the Hydrolyzed Proteins and Fragrance (Optional):
In a clean mixing container, add the Hydrolyzed Proteins and fragrance (if using). Stir gently to combine.Add the Cream Base:
Slowly incorporate the Cream Base into the mixture. Stir until the ingredients are fully blended together. The base should provide a smooth texture that will coat the hair and help deliver moisture.Mix Thoroughly:
Mix all ingredients well until the consistency is uniform. If the mask is too thick, you can adjust by adding a little more base, but ensure the texture remains spreadable.Transfer to a Jar or Container:
Once mixed, transfer the hydrating hair mask into an airtight jar or container for storage.
Formulation Tips for the Cream Base:
To get the best results from our Cream Base and ensure the hair mask is both effective and safe, here are a few formulation tips:
Additives:
You can add up to 10% additives to your hair mask without needing to adjust the preservative level. This allows room for extra ingredients like oils, extracts, or more proteins.Avoid Cationic Ingredients:
Since the Cream Base is anionic, avoid using cationic ingredients (such as cationic surfactants or conditioners) as they can cause instability in your formulation.Temperature Considerations:
If adding heat-sensitive ingredients, such as proteins, ensure the mixture is cooled to 104°F (40°C) or below before incorporating. Excessive heat can degrade proteins or preservatives, reducing effectiveness.Preservative Use:
The Liquid Germall Plus preservative used in the Cream Base is effective for most formulas, including this one. However, if you plan to add more than 10% additional ingredients, you may need to assess whether additional preservative is required.
