Gfcf shampoo
I usually read the posts from the group, but don’t normally postmessages. However, I have a friend with a question I just couldn’tanswer. She’s looking for a shampoo with no Sodium Lauryl Sulfate orAmmonium Sulfate, also GFCF and no corn or coconut oils, preferablyorganic. Does anyone have suggestions? We haven’t found anything sofar that didn’t contain at least one of the items on the list.

Here is what I use for my kids. I don’t know if it’s what you’relooking for but I really like it. It is called Kidscents from YoungLiving. They only sell all natural products. Here is theingredients list for the shampoo, they also have body wash.
Deionized water, declypolyglucose, MSM, aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis)gel, essential oils of tangerine (Citrus nobilis), lemon (Citruslimon), and blue tansy (Tanacetum annum), panthenol, tocopherylacetate (Vitamin E), chamomile (Anthemis nobilis) extract, purpleconeflower (Echinacea purpurea), kukui (Aleurites moluccana) nutoil, jojoba (Buxus chinensis) oil, citrus seed extract, babassu(Orbignya oleifera) oil, grape (Vitis vinifera) seed extract,dimethicone copolyol meadowfoamate, hyaluronic acid, wheat germ oil,keratin, linoleic acid and linolinic acid .
If this is what she wants, then e-mail me off list and I will giveyou my member # so that she can order it. Young Living is wierdlike that, you need to use someone’s # for your first order, thenthey give you one of your own. She will also get my discount if sheuses my # since I order so much from there. Hope this helps.

from http://restrictedgourmet.blogspot.com/2006/11/shampoo-substitute.html:
Virtually all soaps, shampoos and toothpastes contain ingredients derived from corn, soy, and/or coconut. For someone allergic to all three, or with multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) the options are extremely limited.
Here is a way to get your hair and teeth clean with good old baking soda. This is about as hypoallergenic as you can get.
Shampoo Substitute
Take about 2 tablespoons of baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) and add enough water to make a paste. Rub into your scalp and rinse.
If desired, follow with an acid rinse to restore PH balance: Use about 2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice or apple cider vinegar mixed with about a cup of water, being sure to get the ends of your hair.
Rinse with plain water.
