    Default Recipes to make ph balanced homemade shampoo?

    I'm now learning that hair has a ph level of 4.5 -5.

    Are the any shampoo recipes I can make with the ph balanced?

    pH balancing is going to require some knowledge of how pH buffers work and ideally some equipment to tell you what pH you've actually got (even if it's just test steps). It's not like you can just dump some vinegar in your cold process soap recipe and expect acidic soap. (Exploding lye, maybe...)
