If I am to be total honest I recall in my youth using bar soap to wash my hair. My second love embarrassed me or better yet shamed me into "thinking about what you put in an on your body" I immediately noticed a difference to the quality of my thick as a rug hair. I also noticed that if I changed shampoo's between washing that my hair responded much better than if I used just one product. She, BTW used only Johnson's baby shampoo. She too had find blonde hair where I had thick dark wavy hair. I passed the age where men start losing their hair and figured that I was good for life with thick full head of hair. I was however turning silver/white early on. ( my first white hair appearing at around 11 yo when I started plucking them out until a girl told me how "distinguished" I looked. To say: " to make a long story shor t" at this point in my story is funny because it is already a long story but my main point is about the SLA "lauryl" in any form ingrediant. I read that it is a major contributor to thining hair and losing hair. When I started looking for a hair product that didn't have it I couldn't find one; even Johnsons baby shampoo has some ( in a way surprising me because on some sites it talks about it burning the eye's and being a major irritant to most people. The whoa factor. Last week I was looking for a "green" safe product to control bugs on my eatable plants. "Sodium Lauryl Sulfate" is that main ingrediant in "green" bug killers. Who would/could know that if not for sites like this and a few others that I have found that made me realize that I don't need nor want bug killer on my head. PS I did find a store brand of baby shampoo that has no version of lauryl anything in it. If anyone knows of other shamppo's by name that leaves that bug killing stuff out let us know!

So would be okay if I still use the shampoo by this just one bad ingredient because it is sulfate free and no sodium as well write back soon please thanks :) I have been doing research and I have seen positive comments for this website

Well for the longest time, I've been using V05; after reading this article I went to look at the ingredients in that bottle of shampoo. I found out that its mostly made out of water and sodium laureth sulfate. My hair used to be really frizzy and dry when I was using Pert so I then switched to Vo5 thinking that this might be better. Well now my hair tends to get very oily and just...disgusting. I'm trying to figure out which non-expensive shampoos to switch too that might be healthier, Any ideas?

Please see a good dermatologist or other doctor that can help you with this problem. A good doctor can help identify the causes for your hair loss and discuss where to go from there. Hair products you buy on your own can only do so much and most likely will not truly provide a solution to hair loss. Hope you make an appointment soon! Good luck! =) @ Al:

One tastes less vinegary than the other, but one is not stronger than the other. Just because something is natural does not make it good for you. Mother Nature is very good at making things that can harm you. The reason tea tree oil and peppermint oil, etc. are not recommended is that they can really irritate the scalp.

My hair frizzes and scalp is itchy. But recently I started using Baby shampoo instead, seems pretty good at the moment Also at least once to twice a week I use a home made shampoo with about 4 teaspoons of castile soap, 1 cup of water that I soaked rosemary leaves, crushed lavender and nettle leaves in (obviously strain the herbs out first!) some jojoba oil and some rose essential oil. It's more of a rinse really but leaves it really soft and smells awesome! It feels a little soapy after it dries but personally I don't mind!
