Whats a shampoo i could get from cvs that doesnt have Sodium Laureth Sulfate?
Off hand I don't know of any. Even Johnson's Baby Shampoo contains that ingredient.





You don't mention why you're trying to avoid that ingredient, but if you've received an email warning that this is a cancer-causing ingredient, that is an urban legend. (See www.snopes.com, link below) Sodium Laureth Sulfate IS an irritant if you get it into your eyes, and there are warnings not to swallow it on packages of toothpaste.





Is this because it can cause cancer? No - it can cause diarrhea if you ingest too much. However, just for the record this is also an ingredient found in some candy, so it isn't poisonous to ingest it. Just disagreeable if you consume too much.





Here's a link if you want to find out more. I realize you may be sensitive to this ingredient, and I'm not trying to minimize that. I just didn't want you to be the victim of an urban legend, if indeed that is the reason for avoiding this ingredient.





Best wishes to you!

Reply:um most shampoos have sodium laureth sulfate or sodium lauryl sulfate which is worse or amonium lauryl/laureth sulfate. however you can get good shampoo w/out these chemicals from a health foods store like Whole Foods. Another alternative is to use the No-Poo conditioner washing method featured in some hair care books. As it turns out conditioner cleans the hair well too and most conditioner does not contain sodium laureth sulfate. Just wash with instant conditioner andit should clean the hair enough.
Reply:Try Jason natural shampoo - also Pave Shampoo (blue bottle) - Ulta might have this one.
Reply:read what's in it??? sry dnt know
Reply:I don't know what cvs is but I know Aubrey's has shampoo without it and I heard it's really good. I just bought it today actually but I didn't use it yet.





Jason's also doesn't have it but I don't really like how it made my hair feel.
