@ ALLEY – Hi and thank you for stopping by to share your experience with shampoo and for introducting me to this line of shampoo.

I took a look at their site and the ingredients of the shampoo:

Ingredients:
Aloe barbadensis (Organic Aloe) Juice, Lavandula angustifolia (Organic Lavender) Distillate, Anthemisnobilis (Chamomile) Distillate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Phen oxyethanol, Hydrolyzed Wheat Proteins, Calcium d-Pantothenate (Pro-Vitamin B5), Rosa mosqueta (Rosehip) Oil, Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) Oil, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Tetrasodium EDTA, Mentha piperita (Peppermint) Essential Oil, Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea Tree) Essential Oil, Citric Acid.

This shampoo definitely has a lot of great ingredients, but it also still has a few that we could do without, like the Giovanni shampoo above.

Ultimately I am glad to hear it is working for you as it definitely is so much better than the regular shampoos out there.

I’ve had oily hair since I was in Middle School/Junior High. For 20+ years, I used the same over-the-counter oily hair formula shampoo. Then, about 2 years ago, I tried using a variety of regular shampoos, but my hair would get oily and stringy by the end of the day. I had to wash my hair every day.

Then, my hair-stylist suggested the Tea + Protein Shampoo from the Made from Earth line. I was hesitant at first because I didnt think organic shampoos were anything special, but I decided to try it.

It took a few tries, but now I only have to wash my hair every other day! Hooray! Its a thick shampoos so it doesnt run through my fingers and down the drain before I can even get it onto my hair!

I saw a HUGE improvement on my oily hair – highly recommended if you are trying to have normal hair. To avoid overdrying, I use their conditioner also.

@ AKEMI – Hi Akemi, I just realized that I kept this comment of yours saved to research castile soap and forgot to reply to you here.

Castile soap is and can indeed be great and natural as long as not too much processing has been done on it, and also as long as the final product does not get additives of various colors and fragrances. It is a soap based on olive oil, which is of course excellent for the skin.

So I am glad you found this alternative, definitely keep me updated on how it is working out for you!

After checking the Skin Deep site, I figured the safest shampoo is the common castile soap. So I tried it last night — it didn’t dry out my hair like I thought it might. In fact, my hair feels great. I also read an article that, with castile soap, we hardly need conditioner. Hmm, I’ll see.
