Measuring out shampoo?

Do you measure out shampoo precisely? I just make two circles on each wash mitt with Adam's and a capful of ONR and spray in some P21S TAW and it works great. Oh and my bucket is half full.

 

I have a 50ml beaker as well as a 1oz shot glass with the measurements on it. Those are my weapons of choice when I measure things out Recently picked up a 100ml beaker too for the bigger dilutions haha

Graduated Cylinders work great too

 

i have a 2oz shot glass with measurements that i use

 

I have these but I'm waiting to get a gallon of CWG and maybe CWC to use them. Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner Combo

 

OH! iirc....some soaps will say X capfuls equals to Y amount of product

 

I use a measuring cup.

 

I just use a lil plastic cup similar to a dixie cup. Has lines/grooves it in so its easy to measure stuff out.

 

Yeah I have a measuring cup in my cabinet... But measuring the water in the bucket is the problem.

 

I get the pump dispensers for my gallon containers. One pump equals 1 oz of product.

 

^ Can you post a link to them please?

 

Don't get those, they suck... I've only used mine once and they're pretty useless.

I just use a clear plastic cup. Measure 2oz/4oz of water, put it in the cup and mark it.

 

I use mine all the time to measure out ONR and it does a damn good job of it. For thick liquids, then I can see why you think they suck. I also use pump dispensers for my gallons.

 

me too. I love it!

 

I use the cup method as described above and also have 1 oz shot glasses...i always measure...as far as the "x capfuls per gallon" or whatever i would take the cap..use water and see how many capfuls it takes to make an ounce. Thats how i arrived at 1 oz per gallon for 1z perls.

 

I just got ONR so I'll be measuring a lot.

Luckily I got a pump sprayer with measurements to help me get the right dosages.

If I did not have those measurements, a crude idea could be to use a measuring cup to add in water of different measurements and using a marker to keep track of how much liquid to put in for future usage.

Luckily I got my sprayer so I did not have to spend that time measuring myself.

Hope this helps.

 

I went to a grocery store and bought a glass 4 oz. measuring cup. It's only an inch in diameter..so it keeps a low profile

 

For viscous shampoos like Megs GC, I hate using a measuring cup because inevitably I cannot get all of the shampoo out of the cup. I hate a cup, or anything for that matter, with residuals left coating it.

Similar to JL's method of attaching pump dispensers to his gallons, I use my wife's empty leftover Neutrogena Rain Bath bottles/pumps and refill them with car wash. A pump dispenser is perfect for viscous liquids. Any leftover hair shampoo bottle with a pump dispenser should also work. I determined that 7-8 pumps on the Neutrogena bottle equals 1 oz. Yes, I'm a cheap-ass, but there's no mess, no extra cups lying around, and it saves one additional plastic item from going to the landfill.

 

Exactly what I use... quick, convenient and efficient.

 

I guess I'm the only lazy ass on this board who just dumps in an approximate ounce...ONR, I use the cap method. Works fine for me.

 

Me too, just the cap method and it works fine..
