Organic ?,
I was happy to find this “100% vegetarian ingredients” Shampoo. But then I looked at some of the “ingredients” on my bottle and it didn’t seem to be entirely free of “sulfates” than the traditional sodium lauryl sulfate/sulfate Shampoos. As a vegetarian I was expecting herbs not sodium cocoyl sulfate, cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium cocoyl sarcosinate and other high concentrations of Hair Conditioning Agents, Deodorant Agents, Surfactants, and Cleansing Agents.
Ingredients: Purified water, organic aloe barbadensis leaf juice (1), sodium cocoyl sulfate, cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium cocoyl sarcosinate, vegetable glycerin, serenoa serrulata (saw palmetto) fruit extract, panthenol (pro-vitamin B-5), biotin, thiamine, pyridoxine, niacin, riboflavin, polyquaternium-10, wheat protein, soy protein, citric acid, soyamidopropalkonium chloride, jojoba oil, organic helianthus annuus (sunflower) oil (2), sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, ethylhexylglycerin, organic rosamarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf oil (2), and other essential oils. (1) Certified by BioAgriCert (2) Certified by Quality Assurance International
According to the journal Contact Dermatitis, the following ingredients were said to display “similar” signs of irritation to 2% sodium lauryl sulfate:
5% sodium C12-15 pareth sulfate
5% sodium cocoyl isethionate
10% disodium laureth sulfosuccinate
10% sodium cocoamphoacetate
10% cocamide DEA
10% cocamidopropyl betaine
10% lauryl glucoside

good shampoo for dry, itchy scalp,
This shampoo is great for dandruff or dry scalp. It tingles when you use it and makes your hair shiny and with minimal breakage.
Do not use on color-treated hair. It contains “mint” which will make your hair fade & use its vibrant color. I used this product and found out the hard way. I used to dye my hair blonde and it would make my color fade fast! I ended up letting my husband use it (so we aren’t wasting it) and I discontinued the use. Tea-tree is an excellent choice for dry scalp, just use one without mint if you have color-treated hair.
