When you buy shampoo for yourself and your little ones you might want to take less notice of the claims in their TV ads but rather be very aware of their content instead.
This is a list of the ingredients you should avoid at all times.
Methylchloroisothiazolinone
Ammonium Chloride
Propylene-Glycol
Perfume - label often used as a catch-all on ingredient labels for many different chemicals.
For instance, listen to what I have found out about one of the shampoo brands I have used the most, Garnier Fructis.
Apparently the brand sells and markets shampoos in which only 9 out of 22 ingredients have been assessed for safe use. To make matters worse, in one type of Garnier Fructis shampoo, six ingredients were labelled “health concerns” and three were labelled “violations, restrictions, and warnings.” Read more about Garnier’s products here.
