Why We Choose Organic Shampoo For Babies |

OUR TOP SELLING ORGANIC SHAMPOOS FOR BABIES

Of the many organic items we have chosen for our daughter, organic baby bath products are among them. We feel strongly that products like shampoo, body wash, sunscreen, creams and lotions–really, any product that gets put directly on her skin–should at least be natural, and better that they are organic.

Interestingly enough, neither Madhavi nor I use organic shampoo ourselves. I myself don’t have a ton of hair to speak of, so only shampoo about 2 times a week. Sometimes I’ll even use Dr. Bronners all in one, which is a natural product. I hear it dries out your hair though. I don’t use it too often however, since I only shampoo twice a week. For Anjali, we use several California Baby Products. The Calendula Cream is amazing. Great for dryness and cradle-cap. We use the Calming lotion for after baths. And the shampoo and body wash is great, and has lasted well over a year so far.

It is important that our daughter has better products than I would use myself. Her skin is way more sensitive. Knowing the types of chemicals that would touch her beautiful hair and scalp from most commercial shampoos just skives me out.

Some Of The Common Chemicals In Many Commercial Shampoos

Propylene Glycol – This is the stuff that makes shampoo all slippery and slidy (if I may use such a non-word). They use this stuff in antifreeze!
Diethanolamine or DEA – This is a known carcinogen
Sodium Laureth Sulfate - It’s a detergent chemical commonly found in industrial engine degreasers.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate – Another detergent chemical. This one is known to cause cataracts in adults and improper eye development in children. Despite this knowledge, this ingredient is commonly used in most store-bought shampoos and conditioners.

The Problems With Non Organic Shampoo For Babies

Some of the issues with non organic shampoo for babies is include things like skin and scalp problems, eczema and hair damage. Worse yet, several of these chemical are known to cause immune system deficiencies and even cancer. I should rethink my own hair care, as should my wife…

Remember, we have made certain choices for ourselves over the years. Some were good for us, some not so good. But we have the responsibility as parents to make healthy choices for our children, especially when they are so young they cannot decide for themselves. Also, it is probable that more things are chemical-laden now than they were when we were kids.
