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.

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.

[@dianeky617]

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.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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! :)

[@mynoelwoods]

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!

[@jodimcadams7705]

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!

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

You're welcome, thanks for your comment. Sounds like you had fun with it :)

[@takouar5611]

Can I use the double boiler instead of the microwave please? Elly you are the best teacher ever ❤

[@argentvixen]

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.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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 :)

[@rosehavenfarm2969]

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.

[@greensky6664]

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)

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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 :)

[@SharkLizard]

@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking could you use citric acid to make it less alkaline? Or would that interfere with the efficacy of the soap?

[@saborguerito]

@@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.

[@adhd_alchemy]

@@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.

[@stellamozzarella1]

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.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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 :)

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 ?

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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.

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.

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 😊.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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.

So ACV doesn't neutralize the lye like regular vinegar does

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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.

I do this.. I thought just me. To me it feels lovely

[@matthewnovak5440]

So acetic acid(vinegar) and NaOH cause a neutralization reaction creating sodium acetate. (I have no idea if that's good or bad for hair) but this leaves less NaOH available, so this soap has a higher superfat content than normal, which may be why it feels gentle on hair. I am curious though, how it would work if the NaOH was disolved in water, and the vinegar was all added at the end. Ie less superfat, more vinegar, no sodium acetate. Great video!

Oh! Here's a link to a paper on it. www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=chemistry.bd.psu.edu/halmi/chem3vinegars05.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiGoq7guJblAhXQna0KHa4KCFwQFjAPegQIDRAy&usg=AOvVaw2mrHX4c2_41t6zNvM4xKWt

I'm not 100% percent sure on the chemistry of this soap, but I have tested the pH of it many times and it always comes out about 8-9 pH, which is exactly the same pH of soap made without the vinegar. Vinegar is very mildly acidic compared to the strength of alkalinity of sodium hydroxide, so I don't think it's enough to really impact on the NaOH available.

[@adrijanacenipoka4506]

Sorry, please what else can I use for canola oil, I dont have it here where I live.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Hi Adrijana, you can swap the canola oil with olive oil in this recipe. I hope you can get olive oil!

[@ImperaMagna]

....thanks! I will be trying this soon...

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Enjoy!

[@blayne2029]

does this lather like store bought shampoo when in the hair? Thanks.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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! :)

[@elynaangelic4353]

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.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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 :)

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Wow, that's brilliant! Thank you :)

[@lesr2009]

How long do you cure your soaps? I am thinking that because of the high OO in them.

[@dotmax1]

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!

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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!

[@tagladyify]

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.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Thank you, yes, I'm sure you could!

[@drclaudineelkhouryelkarak3152]

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?

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

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!

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.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

I agree Trisha! I love CP for the same reason. It's very quick and direct. I love the smooth finish of HP too :)

[@ScribblingsofLife]

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

[@christineclarke1739]

If I was to do this CP would I add the extra 62 gm AVG with the 120 gm. Can I put in Sodium Lactate and citric acid? Thank you very much for such detailed instructions.

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Yes, you can do that. I don't bother with sodium lactate but you can use it. Be careful with citric acid, soap won't work with too much added :)

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Yes it does have a high pH, it is soap afterall. It really depends on your hair. Some people really like to use soap on their hair. I find that it's ok with a vinegar rinse to neutralise, but it won't be for everyone. I don't use this all the time, just wanted to demonstrate it for those who want to try.

Very nice and easy I love it Want to know about how many minutes should we cook in microwave, can we add one type of oil Please reply

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

You can just use one type of oil but the soap recipe would need to be re-calculated for the different oil used. Also there isn't a specific time I can tell you for how long to cook the soap. You just have to go by what it looks like. Once it becomes all thick and gelly it is done.

Thanks for the great tutorials! I'm pinning and saving lots of them to try one by one. I have a couple of questions regarding this one. They may sound a little dumb, as I'm only a novice, so please bear with me 😉 - Can this be made using the Cold Process method? I've so far only tried that and do not feel comfortable with HP yet. - If not (to the 1st question), can it be made in a pot, on the stove, checking/mixing regularly? - Is canola oil is a must, or can I substitute it with more olive and/or sunflower oil? Do I need to make any adjustments to lye/water in this case? Thanks again for sharing your knowlede 🙏

[@EllysEverydaySoapMaking]

Thanks Fusun! If you read through the other comments you'll find answers to all of those questions :)
