Thank you for your enquiry,
Please see the below response from our Research and Development Team;
“Not sure what you saw but the ingredients are listed there

The Inulin is now called EcoChic Conditioning Agent and I will get that details changed. Use it at the same percentage.
If you are not familiar with working with percentages, it is really simple and much more accurate that other methods.
Everything is weighed – even the liquids.
The recipe as show would use 20g Alpha, 10g Sugar and so on. The end result would be 100g of shampoo.
If you want to make half a kilo, simply multiply everything by 5, as an example."

Thank you for your enquiry.
Preservatives can be defeated by hard water. The variety of tap waters around is so variable that there would be no consistency. Also, if you start retailing your products, you need to have traceability of the ingredients. A bottle of water has a batch number that you cannot get with tap water. We recommend not to use mineral water because, as said, the mineral content can affect the preservative, so we recommend bottle spring water. You could also use bottled distilled water if it has a traceable batch number.
