It is for this reason that some people prefer to use BTMS 50 in their hair treatment recipes for a conditioning affect.

The usage amount of BTMS 50 in solid conditioner is usually 0.2-20%. The usage amount can vary from recipe to recipe, so it is always best to test different recipes to see what works best for you.
