Most beauty products are made up of mixtures of synthetically produced chemicals. Some of these chemicals can penetrate your skin, the largest organ in your body, and some can even enter the blood stream.
There have been many media reports of health scares due to certain cosmetic ingredients in recent years, which have led more and more people to choosing organic products. For instance, infertility is rising in women under 25, cancer, autism and birth defect rates are growing rapidly and even unborn babies have been found to carry thousands of chemicals.
Those who suffer from certain conditions such as psoriasis, eczema or even asthma, may find that their conditions are exasperated when using products that contain certain chemicals. Some already eat organic food and as such, choose to use organic beauty products. For all of these reasons and more, the use of organic products is on the rise.
There are some really terrific hair products that are completely or almost all organic. Here are a list of the best organic shampoos.
is made by a company famous for their variety of sulfate-free organic hair care products. This shampoo contains yogurt proteins, shea butter, avocado oil and vitamin E.
Within the same company, Organix Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shamoi is filled with antioxidants, coconut oil and keratin proteins which will restore the health of your hair, and avocado oil and cocoa butter, which will smooth out your hair cuticles.
Organic Excellence is chemical free and prevents hair loss and dryness while stimulating healthy growth. This shampoo also retains moisture. It has some great botanicals including mistletoe extract, olive leaf extract, ginger extract and fennel extract.
Aubrey Organic Shampoo is ideal for dry hair. This is a completely organic, hydrating shampoo that will leave your hair silky and moisturized. It is infused with organic rose mosqueta oil, aloe vera and honey suckle oil.
John Masters Organics makes a delicious-smelling lavender and rosemary shampoo with superb ingredients.

Avalon Organic Rosemary Volumizing Shampoo contains wheat protein, vitamin E, rosemary and chamomile. It smells great, too.
Yarok Feed Your Volume Shampoo contains a blend of jojoba seed oil, macadamia nut oil and aloe vera. The Yarok brand is also dedicated to protecting over 10 million acres of the Amazon rainforest, so it’s a win all around.
Nature’s Paradise Baby Organic Shampoo and Body Wash is mild, raw, non-toxic and free of parabens and phthalates. It is made for babies and is nourishing, filled with vitamins and antioxidants. Its active ingredients are organic chamomile tea, organic coconut oil soap, organic coconut extract, organic sunflower oil and raw apple cider vinegar with mother.
Watch out though, because many products will use the word “organic” and actually contain a trace amount of organic herbs inside of a sleuth of harsh toxins, chemicals and preservatives. The shampoos listed above are the best organic shampoos out there.
I would add Alikay Naturals Moisturizing Black Soap Shampoo to this list. Its really great and leaving the hair thoroughly clean yet moisturized.
