I use red henna shampoo from Urtekram.

ingredients: organic red henna aquaous extract, rhassoul (african mud
soap), coconut and corn sugar soap, sea salt, citric acid, essential
sandalwood oil.

I tried it because I was hoping the henna would give off a bit of
colour (so my roots wouldn't show so much), - but I was afraid that it
would dry out my hair because it has 'real' soap in it. I was wrong on
both counts ;-): it doesn't do anything for the colour, and it does
not dry my hair out at all, on the contrary, makes it very glossy. you
have to rinse it out very well though.

furthermore I like the smell, and it comes in a bottle which I think
is very pretty. you can see it at

: Hi, I'm looking for an all natural shampoo. I dont like commerical
: shampoos due to the chemicals and SLS (sodium lauyth sulfate a
: harmful foaming agent) they contain. I'm currently using Burts bees
: shampoo bar. I love the ingredients but it does'nt work that great
: in my thick waist length hair. I know it will not lather as much
: because it does'nt have SLS, but it leaves my hair really gunky.
: I've also used Little forest shampoo (www.littleforest.com great
: site to learn more about natural body care products) with gunky
: results also unless I use a half a bottle for every wash. I have
