Where can i get all organic shampoo products?

and which ones are the best for oily hair?Where can i get all organic shampoo products?
My advice is to make an informed decision regarding natural and organic products - if that's the route you want to go. Most products that claim to be organic are not purely organic products, that is they are not 100% organic. If a product not being 100% organic is okay with you then you shouldn't have a problem with finding some ';organic'; products to buy. Now, just because a product claims to be organic, or has ';organic'; in it's name does not mean that it's a good organic product. For instance, I bought bioInfusion Organic shampoo and conditioner. According to the name, it should be an organic product, right? Or, at least has a ';fair'; amount of organic ingredients? Nope, that's not the case here. If you read the ingredients list you'll see that it contains many of the harsh ingredients that regular shampoos have, and maybe only one ingredients that's organic, and with that one organic ingredient it's able to attach the ';organic'; claim to it's name. I bought this stuff and I ended up hating it. BTW, bioInfusion is a brand that's owned by Walgreens, and that's the only place you can buy it.





Organix is the same. I'd heard many raving reviews about this product and was itching to buy it. It's sold at Krogers and I picked it up to read the ingredients list (a force of habit because I care about what i put in my hair) and the ingredients did not look good. It's on pare with bioInfusion with containing a lot of harsh chemicals along side a few ingredients that are organic. Not good, and that's why I didn't buy it.





You have to read the labels and become familiar with the ingredients of these so called organic products. Some lines that contain a high amount of *certified* organic ingredients are Yes to Carrots and Giovanni. Yes to Carrots contain anywhere from 96%-98% certified organic ingredients, which is the most I've seen so far in a product that's not 100% organic. Giovanni also contains a high amount of certified organic ingredients. Both of these hair care lines are certified organic lines.





Now, there are product lines you can buy that are 100% organic products that contain ONLY certified organic ingredients and no harsh or synthetic ingredients at all. http://www.organicconsumer.org has a list of those lines and you can search them state. It also has articles on how a true organic hair care line (dr. bonners) is suing other ';organic'; lines like Giovanni, Jason Organic, and Organix to get them to stop marketing themselves as organic when they are not true organic lines. Dr. Bonners is another pure organic line of hair and skin care products, and some Walgreens stores carry it, along with Giovanni and other ';organic'; brands like Yes to Carrots, Jason Organic, Alba, and Organix. Pure certified organic lines are more expensive than regular hair care lines.





You can also find many ';organic'; hair care lines at health foods stores. that's where I sometimes buy them. If a Walgreens near you sells them then it'll be cheaper there compared to a health foods store. You can also buy them online. If you can find one that's in a Tree Tea formula then that's good for oily hair. Giovanni sells shampoo and conditioner in Tree Tea.Where can i get all organic shampoo products?
You can get them at Whole Foods or other health food stores.


For oily hair you should use stuff with tea tree oil in it.


Products with mint in them always feel good on the scalp.
