'Natural' shampoo

I'm on the hunt for a shampoo and conditioner with as few synthetic chemicals as possible. I was a fan of Tresemme for years but since coming off the Pill and moving to a hard water area, products with SLS and silicones leave a horrid buildup on my hair.

I've tried the Naked range from Boots but it left my hair coarse,Menotti and dry, and quite like the Holland and Barratts Dr Organic range but am after something which won't leave quite as much residue and yet will smooth down my frizzy locks more! Is it just a case of sticking with this and going down the apple cider vinegar route more...but not too much to avoid drying? I'm so confused, going 'natural' is really hard!

Yes squizita and there are soap nuts that are used as detergent in washing machines.

I always buy soap without sulphates or other strong chemicals. I find 'normal' soaps dry out my skin too much.

Sukin if you're in Australia.
Jason shampoo is my fave, but difficult to find.

I use the JASON shampoo.

My hair is wavy and it seems fine. I have my 7yo DD with curly hair use it as well and it works well on her hair too.
