i use Redkin products right now, specifically the blonde glam and Nioxxin intensive therapy hair maske.

I have been gluten-free for nearly two weeks and now my head is breaking out and my face in this raised itchy rash- my scalp has several scabs in it now. :o i am thinking maybe its the shampoo= it has wheat in it.

i am gonna go grab some new products tomorrow but don't even know where to begin when reading bathroom labels since it all looks greek to me...

any help? ideas? i have blonde hair with VERY heavy platinum highlights and so i need a really good quality product, i am willing to spend to get a good product that feels good and works.

thanks!

I had no idea that we would have to think about shampoo and conditioner. My daughter was diagnosed first week of september '06. My husband was tested but showed negative. I have not been tested but suspect that I also have it. Or am at least sensitive.

Alterna has many gluten-free products...I just posted a list from them

Redken has a couple gluten-free shampoos and conditioners. I didn't look at all of them but I know smooth down and fresh curls are ok. I think I found a list of what cosmetic companies call gluten from Redken. It had all the chemical names to look out for. Most of them had wheat in them somewhere so it I don't think it is that hard to figure out by reading the labels. Their ingredients are also posted online so you can check everything before you go to the store.

Most salon quality products have wheat clearly listed in the ingredients and it is tough to find any that don't have any in them somewhere. Because of my hair type I"m forced to use salon stuff or I look like a mess!! I have found that many (if not all) Aquage products are safe to use. I have DH as well and my scalp goes crazy if I use anything unsafe. Just before I was diagnosed, my hairdresser couldn't figure out why my hair was thinning so badly...at that point I was using Aveda (which I miss dearly) but it was LOADED with wheaty stuff. They Aquage works just as well and I think it smells really good too!

Paul Mitchell does have some products that do not contain wheat. It seems they clearly list when wheat is present on their labels. I use Paul Mitchell The Wash (excellent shampoo which doubles as a body wash) and Instant Moisture Daily Treatment for conditioner. I even spoke to a sales rep who works in my salon who assured me they were safe.

Good Luck

Which Aquage products are safe for us? I have been having the hardest time finding a good quality gluten free shampoo that does not make my blonde color treated hair greesey and gross.

I fell in love with EO Shampoos and Conditioners, I love the Kreatain ones for straightening, they also have some for treated and damaged hair.

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.

      You state in an earlier post that you don't have celiac disease. Here in this post you state you will "be doing another test". What will this test be looking for? What kind of celiac disease testing have you had done? If you have used a Entero Labs it sounds like you have had stool testing done for celiac disease which is not widely accepted as a valid celiac disease diagnostic testing method. Have you had blood antibody testing for celiac disease done and do you realize that for antibody testing to be valid you must have been eating generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks/months?

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.
