You may want to invest in a vitamin shampoo. It is good for hair and scalp. Just avoid any with ant kind if ' paraben' in it.
Thanks, I'll look into getting some!
What is paraben.?
Parabens are frequently added to cosmetics to prevent the growth of bacteria. The ones to be aware of are methylparaben, propylparaben and butylparaben. The problem with parabens has been identified because they are xenoestrogens, i.e. they mimic oestrogen in the body. This has been linked to breast cancer and reproductive issues, including early onset of puberty and reduced sperm count.
