Coconut, soy and gluten free shampoo/conditioner?

post #1 of 14
Thread Starter 

I am in search of a coconut/sls/, soy and gluten free shampoo/conditioner if there is such thing. I have been using nothing but water for months now and it is just not working for me. I don't really like the no-poo method either. I just need something for once in a while if possible.

 

 

 

Thanks!

Well, definitely stay away from all the "natural" stuff, because I haven't found any that are coconut-free.  I'm using an Aussie conditioner right now that *looks* like it might fit your criteria, but I'd probably contact the company to find out for sure.  I don't see any SLS or coco- ingredients, and no obvious gluten or soy (vitamin E).

Possibly Original Sprout has something that would fit those criteria? I'm not sure about coconut, but a ton of their products are free of gluten and soy.

I hate that I have to give up "natural" to have coconut free and all the others! What is the name of the Aussie brand you are using right now? Thanks!

It's "Aussie".  ;)  It's the cheap stuff in the purple bottles.  I would rather use the natural stuff too, but it's all plant based (as it should be!), which makes most of it unsafe for us.

I've been No Poo for almost 2 years and love it. I use baking soda to scrub my scalp about 1-2 times a week and rinse with diluted apple cider vinegar. For hair that needs a lot of conditioning some people use oil or homemade mayo mixtures. I don't need this at all.

I will give it a try again but it did not really work for me the first time around. I need to be able to do it when Dd is not in the shower with me which is maybe once a week as she is allergic to the world eyesroll.gif

I would say to make your own home made conditioners and shampoos with baking soda and honey some herbs stuff like that. As for lotions um I haven't figured that one out. May I ask what it is u eat? lol because I have recently been eating smoothies no milk or anything just fruit pureed in a blender. I eat bread and things containing soy every other day but i really have to behave and not use or eat soy I pay for it when I do. It's really hard though. Thank you.

Hi Marlie and Something,


This thread is over a year old.  Thanks for the advice but it look like the original posted hasn't been on this site in almost a year now.  

 

Welcome though and I am sure you can add a lot to the allergy topic!
