Sodium Laurel Phosphate- I understand this dries out your hair and need to find a shampoo that does not contain thisNames of Shampoo that does not contain Sodium Laurel Phosphate?
There are several. Found in many health food stores is Organics ( they smell very good), Chi is good but expensive, Jacob (that's the brand name) and Burts Bees (i've been told but haven't seen) there are a few others that I don't recall the name of, but a large health food store should carry more than 1 or 2 brands. They are good for flaky hair ( the s.laurel SULFATE dries the scalp) but they don't lather as much as regular shampoos (they clean just as well).
(about sodium laurel sulfate)
***Products containing these substances can affect those prone to eczema and other irritants. These substances provide a foaming quality to the product, allowing for better distribution of the product while washing hair or skin and while brushing teeth. When rinsed off, the product will have cleaned the area but will have taken moisture from the top layers of skin. In people with sensitive skin (prone to Dermatitis, Acne, Eczema, Psoriasis and chemical sensitivity) the drying property of these detergents can cause flare-ups of skin conditions or may worsen existing conditions. Canker sores and tongue irritations may be an effect on those with immune system issues, vitamin deficiencies and chemical sensitivities when used in toothpaste. These cases are more frequent with sensitive skin when used directly on the body (bath soap, liquid dish soap, shampoo, etc.) but may not irritate sensitive skin when used in laundry detergent and other cleaners.Names of Shampoo that does not contain Sodium Laurel Phosphate?
You know, I think there's way too much concern over sodium laureth sulfate. I know you can go to an aisle in Long's Drugs that has a lot of ';natural'; toiletries/cosmetics, and some of those may not contain it. Trying to find shampoos w/out it is probably not worth your trouble, however, if you just condition well. I color my hair and am not too worried about sodium laureth...and my hair's in great condition.
