Best Organic Shampoo?

[Lillylolly]

I have been using a brand of organic shampoo called "Jason" - does anyone else use this? What other brands would you recommend?

Also, what organic baby products does everyone use?

[chachamama]

Is California Baby organic?? I know it doesn't contain the chemicals like others do.. we use California Baby and really like it!

[nuthinbutpink]

We use Bert's and Aveeno Baby- not sure if they are organic though??

[hopefulfornumber3]

I have never heard of Jason. I use the Wen haircare (Chaz Dean's hair stuff. The hair guy from the TV show "Flipping Out" on Bravo) and Kerastase shampoo but not sure if they are organic either. I also love the California Baby stuff and Noodle and Boo baby stuff is great too!

We don't have California Baby here in the UK but I am planning on stocking up when I am back in the US in April. I did notice they sell it at Target and BRU. It was **SO** cheap too - compared to UK prices.

I rotate between California baby and Aveeno.

[chachamama]

They sell California baby on Amazon... can you order from there? The prices were really good on Amazon too.

[Lillylolly]

Oh thanks for the tip, Chachamama. I have a huge list of things I want to pick up while I am in the US.

[chachamama]

What else are you getting?? I love talking shopping.. :D

[Lillylolly]

Yankee candles for starters! They are so expensive here but when I was in the US in October I bought 2 and they were so cheap. I love having candles burning in the winter so I want to pick up a few for next winter. Also, I will probably buy some scrapbooking stuff - again it is so cheap. Oh, and I just LOVE Target. We went there all the time so I could be satisfied I had everything I wanted before we left LOL. I bought some cute childrens glitter shaker tumblers for .99c! I also bought some stationary invitations etc in Target as I thought they were adorable.

I also love Gymboree :) but my all time favourite US store is Pottery Barn Kids! Too bad I can't bring back whole bedding sets and curtains back with me in the flight. We don not have anything like PBK in the UK.

I also love the sweaters for little boys on this site: www.bellabliss.com

Oh yum Yankee Candle is my favorite too. I love Autumn Harvest. They also used to (might still have?) one called Macintosh and Peach.. check that one out, it's my #1 favorite candle.

I go to Target at least 2x a week, so I understand.. be glad you don't have one, I can't get out of that store for less than $40 ;)

Those sweaters are adorable! I'll have to check that site out..

[Lillylolly]

I will look out for that one. I am not keen on florals but I do like peach :)

I love Target too. I worked there for 5 years. I also like Yankee Candle, but I like Woodwick candles much better. Not only do they smell really good they also their wooden wicks sound like a crackling fire.

Anyway, back to the main subject. For myself I use Nexxus Phyto organics shampoo and conditioner and I buy lots of method products including baby wash and shampoo, but I don't think it's organic, just more natural.

Here in OZ I use GAIA Natural Baby. It's Australian owned but you can buy it online. Soap and sulphate free, organic oils, very yummy. I love it. You can buy body wash, hair and body wash, moisturizer etc.

I like California Baby. A friend of mine has gone completely shampoo-less and everyone in the family has their hair washed with baking soda and conditioned with apple cider vinegar. She swears by it and I do have to say that her kids' hair looks really lovely and shiny, and it's certainly cheaper to do that than buy the fancy organic brands. She adds a couple drops of essential oil to the vinegar to make it smell good. I may have to try it...organic products are pricey.

I like California baby too. I like that apple cider vinegar idea! but can it get tangles out?

Which organic shampoo do your all use for your girls who are not babies anymore? My DD has shiny dark hair. I should start using something to maintain the good hair and stop the baby stuff I am still using on her

[shouldihope?]

I use Jason, Avalon Organics, or Kiss My Face.

Thank you. I'll propably get Avalon Organics and also found this - http://www.naturesbabyorganics.com/stores.html

There are 3 baby products that I use-
Earth Mama, Angel Baby
California Baby
Dr. Bronners unscented baby soap

If you go onto the EWG(Environmental Working Group) and look at the ingredients listed on the Skin Deep site(linked in the EWG) you'll be shocked at what you see. After extensive research these are the only 3 products(in Canada) that I've found that are truly organic/safe. The number one product in our household is the Dr. Bronners.

As for myself....I am experimenting with no-pooing....LOL
I can actually get away with going about 8 days with no hair washing now and my hair looks almost as good as Day 1.
As for body wash I use the Dr. Bronners as well:)
