How to prevent sulfur odour in shampoo formula
Accepted Answer
Sulfurous odors in shampoo can be attributed to sulfur-containing compounds, often arising from ingredients like sulfates (e.g., sodium lauryl sulfate) used as detergents. To minimize this odor:
1. Choose Sulfate-Free Shampoos: Opt for shampoos formulated without sulfates, often labeled as 'sulfate-free' or 'SLS-free.' These usually contain milder surfactants.
2. Add Fragrance: Incorporating a pleasant fragrance into the formula can mask any subtle sulfurous notes.
3. Utilize Additives: Consider adding odor absorbers like activated charcoal or fragrance-neutralizing agents to the shampoo formula.
