Chemical free shampoo and bath products?

Does anybody know where I might be able to source some affordable chemical free shampoos and bath products. I'd like to stop using all those products with parabens in esp. for the sake of my kids.





Everything I've found on the 'net is so expensive. I don't mind paying 拢4 for a bottle of shampoo, but not 拢10!





Does anybody know of any companies who produce this kind of stuff? I live in the UK. Any web addresses for UK companies so that I can order it over the 'net?





I'm also interested in how to make your own shampoos and bath products - the ones I've seen for shampoos always seem to suggest using castile soap, but doesn't soap make your hair go strange?





Does anybody have any experience of 'going green' like this. I've managed to switch all my cleaning products over to eco friendly products and my home smells much nicer without all the harsh smells - I like the Ecover products - they're affordable and seem to work.





ps - I don't like the Body Shop stuff!





Thanx :-DChemical free shampoo and bath products?
Hey ,





Another convert here! Been through it , not because I had any allergic reactions to chemicals but I cant quite see why they should use so much chemicals in something as simple as a soap or a shampoo!!





Green People do wonderful stuff, but they aim at the high-end of the market. Akamuti is a good brand that is worth trying ( a bit on the expensive side) but all their products are made of pure, organic butters and oils.





But if it is for daily use you could try Faith in Nature products, no chemicals, eco friendly and affordable ... even for a student like me !!!





Good luck in finding the right product!

New Directions UK


Find them on the net.


They have great products and some are chemical free and organic.


You are making an excellent choice. What a terrific mother you are.
good luck in finding then ...and at a good price!


be careful some of the products don't have all the ingredients written om the label... the dangerous ones especially:(
Try Johnsons Baby Products - shampoo - baby oil - and so on - ok I hope that answers your question - you are a nice person I can see that - have a lovely time be happy - I have the same problem myself - I don't understand why they put so much chemical in shampoo - it is plain silly - I always seem get an allergic reaction - me my preference - I like the shampoo and conditioner you can buy in Ikea - the chances of getting an allergy is low - straight and up front with you - on that one - ok ?
Try a local health food/products store, their main focus is is being organic and all natural. We have them here in the United States, I'm not sure about over there, but they most likely do. I would say try Aveda products but they're expensive. Try google.com and type in what you are looking for.
Go for Johnson %26amp; Johnson ';baby shampo';.... its made for kids (chemical free).
very good question and as i work at tesco on the health and beauty section i can tell you that tesco are slowly starting to stock the green toiletries. in fact we now do a mass of organic ranges such as cotton wool lol. over the next few weeks try looking round tesco if you have one.
Aveeno uses all natural ingredients. Maybe you have these products in your area.
YES, Convert, go to Shaklee.com.





WE did.





%26amp; on our household cleaners too!! those out there are poisionous !
JASON?
try Lush

I worked for them for a while, and was surprised to find that, despite the bath bombs and stuff being expensive, the every day products, skin care etc, weren't as pricey as they might me, and even now I use them. The solid shampoos mean that they don't have to use preservatives etc, and tmost of their ingredients are organic and fair trade too.
I can't use Body Shop either. It makes my eyes really sore.


Green People products are amazing. They are 100% natural and they do a special range for children as well. They have their own website, but I buy mine in the local health shop..
Burt's Bees
