Need A Leave-In Conditioner/detangler

My oldest has typical "little girl ratty hair".  Same drill as most moms have - she doesn't brush it great, but won't let me touch it.

 

We've tried Suave detangler - it wasn't good for her hair.  Now we're trying Panten - also not good.

 

Anybody have a gluten-free one that you really love?  I'm willing to spend more on this because "kid" hair products tend to be junky.

 

Thanks.

Seems that the good ones have wheat germ oil in them. A few years back, my hairdresser used one that was sunflower oil based. Maybe you could find that at a beauty supply store? Sorry. I don't remember the name.

What kind of hair does your daughter have, straight/curly etc?  And were the suave and pantene ones too light?  I would definitely recommend checking out a beauty supply store- usually they have decent prices and you can check it online, too.  Here are a couple:

Also if you have Ulta where you live, they have a huge selection, too, but do carry some high end stuff that may not be in the kiddo price range.

 

This stuff has been around for forever, I assume it works:

Just glancing through ingredients, lots of them do have wheat protein or wheat germ oil.  Ick!  Hope you find something :)

Laura - it's straight, but very thick.  She, along with a lot of her friends, brush the outside layer while the inside layer turns into a rat's nest.  I can't believe how difficult it's been to find a decent gluten free option!

 

I hadn't considered running into Sally, but it's just down the street.

 

Thanks for the suggestions, ladies!  If anybody has another option let me know. :)

I use Desert Essance leave ins, i have thick curly hair and it works out alright... they make several products and are all gluten free as far as I know. + They smell pretty good :)

I believe that most  Dove shampoo products are Gluten free, and so their leave in conditioner may well be the same, you would have to check to be sure though.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.
