Shampoo

[Lou]

For the last 50 years, all I have used is dandruff shampoo. When I became vegan I used either Jason's Dandruff or Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle.
But now for the first time, I am dandruff free. I don't know if its permanent or not but I thought it would be nice to try something new for a while.
I searched through the threads and couldn't find anything about shampoos. So i decided to start a new one.

What shampoo do you use? Why do you like it? Do you recommend it?

Thanks.

There are several vegan shampoos at the dollar stores. I buy cheap shampoo! They are clearly labeled "not tested on animals."

Cool. I will try my dollar store first. Any specific names you can give me?

 

[Chryssie]

I don't even look at brands much. I just look at labels that say no animal testing. I think Flex is one brand and VO 5 used to be and White Rain. Brands tend to change formulas a lot so always check the label!

I use pureology mostly. It is about mid-priced. I use it because my hair is color damaged.

Sauve is going cruelty free.

Suave Goes Cruelty-Free, Joins 'Beauty Without Bunnies' | PETA

Another Unilever brand makes history by going cruelty-free! Look for PETA's cruelty-free bunny logo, which will soon appear on all Suave products.

Dollar Tree had Salon Selectives i really liked. They're closed, but Big Lots is open . Really I wouldn't want to go in either one, but I do need shampoo
Salon Selectives is low sulfate which I like

Maybe I can order some of these. Oh, Jason has a fragrance free shampoo on Amazon.

I've tried different ones but keep returning to Fructis Grow Strong.

Update.
I went to the dollar store and bought some White Rain. A shampoo and a conditioner. both state that they are not tested on animals. Both cost me $2. I'm not sure if they are actually animal free. they have a long list of ingredients. some of the ingredients could be derived from animals. I scanned them with the app IsItVegan and it came back with a "not sure"

I have White Rain shampoo now and wasn't too sure myself. This makes me think it's a keeper!
And it seems to be a dollar everywhere!

I do like a hair 'serum' when it gets longer, which it is now.
I've had this tiny vial for so long I finally opened it, and its so nice! I need to find one that's cheaper and vegan,or at least not animal tested

Well before the shampoo about once a week I go and chop a stalk of our AloeVera plant ,cut it down the middle and rub it into my scalp .
leave there while I am showering and then hair wash with some Tumerick and coconut shampoo it keeps my scalp in good shape

A late response but the past two years I've been loving haircare from the renpure line. They're PETA Beauty without Bunnies labeled (but the Biotin& Collagen line and Keratin & Argan line have fish oils in them.). The site Cruelty Free Kitty has a more clearer explanation of what they do and don't do. The Tea tree and Rosemary Refresh Shampoo is really great for keeping dandruff away and I love the prices and amount you get so very economical. Easy to find at Walmart and some grocery stores. (not shilling, just wanted to pipe up in case anyone was curious about the original post question. )

So many beauty products are labeled vegan now! I find mine at Dollar Trees and my local discount stores.
I found Clean Beauty a while back and stocked up and both their shampoo and conditioner. The bottles were really hard to use, why at Tree. Now just bought a big bottle of Kirkland vegan hydrating shampoo for $2.99. Curly, curlier, Curliest conditioner. Power Stick for Her spray on leave on conditioner which sprays funny, but I spray in my hands anyway

I use Clariol Natural Instincts hair color labeled vegan

are they cruelty free too. I think I read somewhere that vegan just means that they don't contain animal products. not that they aren't tested on animals.

They all have either PETA or just leaping bunny, so yes, not tested on animals, and either made in Canada or US
