Shampoos

[Amy Chislett]

Does anyone know of light or weak commercial shampoos?  I use baking powder most of the time cause I like to get away from the commercial, heavy grade, strip every last lipid molecule off the scalp shampoos.  I also a bit steam punk.  I use a dandruff one occasionally but was interested in going back to a mild commercial cleaning more regularly.  I am thinking baby shampoo even.  I have even concocted my own potions, but won't advise this or give out recipes as 'results tend to be variable'.

I've been using Aveeno Pure Renewal shampoo - it seems to be easy on the hair.  I like to swim, so shampoo frequently to get the chlorine out.  I have also been applying a coconut oil mask weekly - that has a lasting penetrating effect.

I use SheaMoisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo along with its leave in conditioner.  https://hive.am/HsN87

It's a little more expensive than some others but leaves my hair really nice.

The cheaper ones such as the Suave brand tend to be a bargain and they work for me.

I will occasionally try some fancier ones but the inexpensive basic brands seem to work for me.

Ditto for conditioner.  Although I buy more often the more expensive conditioners than I do the more expensive shampoos.

But I use more conditioner than shampoo.
