So the first one is the recipe, the second are the calculations

And also I'm planning to add sugar for more bubbliness

Unless you have really oily hair, that coconut is a bit too high. It will strip every shred of moisture out of your hair. You might want no more than 5% coconut oil to keep the cleansing down to 5 or under.

Besides that high coconut, the zero superfat seems a strange idea, and would make it very stripping, I only go that low for laundry soap. Is there a reason the castor oil is so high? I usually don't go over 5% because I hear it can make the soap sticky.

Oh there's a zero superfat because I wanted to superfat individually with jojoba oil and nothing else.
