A new shampoo for dd1.

She's 12 and at that age where hair is starting to look a bit greasy after a while

We were previously using yes to carrots but they appear to have discontinued the one we were using and the alternative version or what was available or whatever wa sbt working so well.

Am now trying to wade through others to try and find one that works

Have so far tried a'kin, kind natured, a faith in nature or 2, Jason's, and cantu.

They either leave it unmanageable (she has long thick wavy hair) or it looks greasy.

The Cantu makes it look nice and shiny but it doesn't feel particularly nice or make it look like it's been brushed.

I can't afford to keep making "mistakes"

Ideally we want sls, paraben, silicone etc free as she has eczema.

Tiny & Guy men's clarifying shampoo was the only thing that made it look like DD had gone near a bottle of shampoo from age 11-13.

You may want to pretreat her hair with rose hip oil if it’s getting tangled. Most of the silicone free shampoos do this to my hair (thick and wavy as well). Putting rosehip oil through my hair before washing is always good for leaving it soft. Even so you may want to rescobsoder. Silicone shampoos definitely work better with my hair.

Your first pick is similar to how it looks. Undefined and a bit frizzy looking ( sorry I'm.not trying to insult you. God knows my hair still is a straw like frizzy mess Grin)

Looks lovely in the second pic!! Really lovely
