I've been using this brand, too. It's pretty great.

What I like most about Malin & Goetz's Neroli Shampoo is what it doesn't do. It doesn't get too sudsy, it doesn't smell flowery, it doesn't stay in my hair after I use it, and it doesn't strip my hair.

This shampoo has a lovely consitency that's just right for me. It's not too thick, and it's not runny or watery. Malin & Goetz got the viscosity just right, and even better, they've created a shampoo that cleans my hair without drying it. So, I can use it every day.

My Malin & Goetz Neroli Shampoo doesn't foam up, which I appreiciate. Foam doesn't mean clean. I like that it's effective at removing my leave-in conitioner from my hair and scalp at the end of the day. I'm also quite happy that it has a soft, neutral smell. I'm allergic to everything, so I don't like body and hair products that contain chemcials or that have heavy aromas, even if they're plant based.

I only need a small amount of this shampoo to wash my hair, so this bottle has lasted (and will last) a long time.

I use a natural tea tree shampoo from Trader Joe's (Tea Tree Tingle); it may be too drying for some, but it works well for me, and I have dry scalp. Sodium laureth sulfate is for car wash soap.

malin & goetz neroli for $20 or aubrey GPB for $17?

I use a cleansing conditioner rather than shampoo. It's a knock off of the Wen hair system and costs around 1/4th the price. It's in a pump bottle and looks like thick conditioner.

O/T - Check out this hottie (yes, the chick in the chair). Even for LA standards she's quite fine.

^ That's hilarious! The hair dryer is a "heating element" and is basically heating the hair. Then, the "twisting" and using the round brush is acting just the same as a curling iron would and curling the hair.

Plus, why use a "cleansing conditioner" and then use a hair dryer to dry your hair (which "damages" the hair)?



I also believe that not using SLS is another marketing ploy by hair companies. It's just silly.

Research showed that SDS is not carcinogenic when either applied directly to skin or consumed

This chemical really isn't dangerous as this quote from your link says. Unless, of course, you leave your shampoo on your scalp for hours at a time.
