I have mention many times before my love hate relationship with SLS free hair care. Shampoo has been a major stumbling block for many years. I often suffer from itching scalp and I have to avoid Orange which is a common ingredient in natural products. I tested SLS free shampoos about 9 years ago and I hated the ones I tried. In the end I stuck to a well known salon brand. I have been using it for five years because I was scared to switch.
I have tested two free from conditioners since I started
this blog (Organic Surge &
Giovanni). The Giovanni 50/50 quickly
became a firm favourite and I have been repurchasing it ever since. Recently I have experienced an itchy neck. The irritation has been making me feel miserable so I took the plunge and purchased an SLS free shampoo.
As I
had success with the Organic Surge Moisture Boost Conditioner I decided to try
the matching Shampoo. It only costs £5.10 for 250ml not much money to lose if I
hated it.

You have to persevere with SLS free shampoo. It takes
a number of washes before you feel the results because you need to purge your
hair from synthetic ingredients. I can honestly say I think after the
fifth wash I finally thought WOW I love the results. My hair feels clean,
shiny and soft. I have continued to use my Giovanni conditioner in
conjunction with this shampoo.
I do find I need to double wash unlike my old shampoo which means I am using up the tube quicker. The lather that you get is by far the best I have seen for an SLS free shampoo. I know the bubbles are not
important for cleaning hair but I do find I need them for guidance (if that
makes sense). It reassures you the
product is being distributed evenly.
I have been using this for four weeks and the irritation I experienced prior to using this shampoo has faded away. Organic Surge products are 100% free from parabens, SLS ,
artificial colourants and fragrances and Organic Surge is against animal
testing. It does contain preservatives (full ingredients list below). You can purchase direct from Organic Surge website or I bought mine from Lush Duck who offer free standard delivery.
