Years ago I was a sales rep for a cosmetic ingredient company. Meaning I didn't work for any cosmetic companies specifically, but sold the ingredients to large manufacturers through a broker. Because of this, I learned a wealth of information that I've taken with me though that career has long since past

(for example, did you know almost every acne medication is the exact same thing if it's over the counter? Even the expensive proactive ones. You can only put 2% salicylic acid in it per law over the counter. They are all this with other inert ingredients or 10% benzoyl peroxide and inert ingredients. Just buy the cheapest and read the labels. Proactive, for example, has the same active ingredients as the two buck grocery store acne meds...but I digress.)

I learned much about Burt's Bees during this time because of their lip balm. I was unable to sell petroleum based ingredients to large manufacturers because petrol ingredients (yes, such as vaseline) are illegal in many countries as they've been found to be a carcinogen. Because most large companies sell to other countries they had to buy more expensive, but more healthy ingredients. Vaseline type petroleum is dirt cheap to sell so it's still used and fought for widely in the US...to make a buck. Petrol cosmetic products are expected to be removed in the US in the upcoming years as they are currently being re-tested by the FDA. Unfortunately, this is a fight and takes many years. Yes, you read this right...Vaseline, which we slather on our babies, cannot be sold in most other countries due to the petrol based products found to be carcinogenic. Because of this, even though I don't use lip balm, I tell my friends who do not to use chapstick.

As for shampoos, what I learned from the cosmetic scientists and companies changed how I buy them forever. Did you know we are the ONLY country who buys shampoos with Sodium Laryl Sulfate or Sodium Laureth Sulfate in them in such mass quantities? These are the exact same stripping agents used in FLOOR CLEANER. But it's for marketing. Americans equate foaming with clean so those that foam less, even if they work better, don't sell as well...so the majority of companies add them in because they are big foamers. But they are HORRID for your hair. However, in the past two years I have seen more knowledge in the US on this and finally I'm beginning to see "sulfate free!" on some bottles and on commercials. People are finding out.

Sulfates completely strip your hair and cause breakage. Once I started going to Whole Foods or Central Market and buying my shampoos without it, I never stopped...even though it's been years since I learned this. Every time I get my haircut somewhere the stylist says "you are lucky at your age you don't have to dye your hair" or something to that effect. I always say "but I do dye my hair. I actually have tons of grey underneath this dark brown." and they say "but your hair is in incredible shape and is really shiny. Do you not blow dry it or use a curling iron?" and I tell em I do that too.

The difference is I don't strip out all the moisture with my shampoo!

Also, if I travel and use a shampoo with sulfates I will see my dye run out of my hair that the sulfate-free shampoos kept in. Because of the stripping properties, your hair dye, if you use it, will last a far shorter amount of time with shampoos containing sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium laureth sulfate. Sulfate free shampoos will help not only retain moisture, but color as well because there is no stripping.

But I need good cleaning shampoo mind you...I work out hard 6 days a week.

This, fortunately is good for your hair, offers good cleansing, and is non stripping. The other ingredients only make it better...very natural and GOOD. My hair gleams. I've found a handful of shampoos that measure up to my knowledge and this does.

Negative? Negative? Still hard for me to track this stuff down at many grocery stores.

ps also contains no parabens. I won't go into them as well at the risk of being too long winded but that's a very good thing you should also eliminate from your hair cleansers.

first, the smell is REALLY great. however, the fact sodium lauryl free means it isnt supposed to lather that much, so you have to be careful to not use too much to get it to that rich lather that you have in usual shampoos. it also left my hair incredibly smooth, i didnt even have to condition, and lots of shampoos i use give me dandruff problems, but this doesnt at all. my scalp is never itchy or anything. i've gotten addicted to this, my hair and scalp has never felt healthier.

Amazing shampoo... I started using it on my preschoolers fine, dry, curly hair after going through a host of other shampoos and curly hair care methods. Works best when used every 2-3 days. It left her hair shiny, more moisturized, and manageable. I then started using it on my own straight, Asian, somewhat damaged hair, and started receiving complements after using it for a few weeks. Like my daughter's hair, my own hair became richer and healthier after using this product. Highly recommended. LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!

You could say my hair is pretty severely damaged. I cut it into a pixie a little over a year ago and since then have bleach it, ironed and curled it without heat protection and used awful products. My hair type is a combination, meaning some strands are fine while others are thick, but most of them are thick and damaged. I also have oily roots and dry ends which means split ends galore.

I've tried many shampoos and conditioners, including pantene and aussie. It was the same thing with all of them, my hair would look ok for a while and the next day it was all greasy and and strands on my bangs would get stuck together.

I know a girl who has beautiful silky hair and asked what shampoo she used and she said this one, when I read the ingredients in comparison to the others I've used it made a lot of sense, these are natural ingredients while the others contain many chemicals. I used this shampoo ONCE, four days ago and my hair hasn't lost it. It doesn't look oily at all, everyone I live with can't stop commenting on it. This is the best shampoo I've ever used, and I'm sticking with it.
