So I have always bought Biolage because it works the best for my naturally curly, course hair...just bought a new bottle of shampoo and conditioner. Today I was taking my time in the shower and thought about reading the label.........."wheat germ oil"!!!!!!! are you kidding me?? $30 down the drain!!!!! any suggestions on some good shampoo/conditioner I can get at a decent price???

Thanks!!

Lindsey

Lindsey-

Hi! I switched to Aubrey Organics Rosa Mosqueta shampoo. It is great for me--I have curly hair. Has given me more body and shine than any other shampoo. I buy it at Wild Oats usually. It isn't as cheap as "Pantene", but not as much as Biolage. Maybe $15 or so?

Thats Crazy the exact same thing happened to me..... Biologe has been my favorite for years. I need help still what shampoo and conditioner are you currently using.... Anyone with some feed back would be cool!

I use Redken and buy it on ebay. The fresh curls - good for naturally curly hair and the smooth down - helps with frizz are both gluten-free. I think those may be the only two that are ok.

I just had this same issue...

I'm trying out Giovanni...it's not bad, leaves my hair very soft. I like the smooth as silk conditioner the best of all the products i've tried so far. I got their spray in/leave in conditioner which is working good. I also got the straightening gel they have out. I am not so thrilled with this. It's too thick & gummy for my taste. And it leaves my hair frizzy.

Be careful w/ the Aubrey Organics line b/c some of their products contain wheat, so just double check everything.

Good luck and PLEASE share your results when you try something out. I too have naturally curly hair. I can wear it curly or straighten it out. I'm always searching for good products.

I like the Giovanni that Turtle uses and also ShiKai Everyday Shampoo and Conditioner. Neither of those contain SLS, which I need to stay away from.

So NONE of the products found at walmart or Walgreen's are OK???

Dove will list any gluten ingredients on the label.

Thanks. I've been using Finesse and can't find anything "bad" on the label....but then what do I know??!! ;)

I used Redken for years (not the curl one), and too found it had wheat in it. I was really irritated because I loved my fancy salon shampoo! I switched to Dove and soon realized that you can get quality shampoo from a $4 bottle!

A lot of Pantene is gluten-free. I'm not fond of it, but it's easy to throw in the cart at Walmart.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
