gluten-free Hair Products

My sweet little girl is going to be a Who from Whoville in the Children's Theatre play of Seussical in our town. I don't see any problem with the make-up since I can find products that are fine for her. To save me the trouble of looking through hair products and tearing my own hair out trying to decipher the ingredients, does anyone have any suggestions for me? The Who's all have some crazy hairstyles and top ponytails, buns, etc. She will have this in her hair for several hours at a time for several days straight. I'm looking for gel, mousse and super strong hair spray. She has very fine hair that is hard to keep styled anyway.

Before anyone says it - I KNOW that gluten products on the skin are not supposed to cause a reaction. We've had her tested for allergies and it was fine. However, shampoo and conditioner with gluten in it causes little bumps on the back of her neck and top of her back (where her hair hits) that itch. I don't know why. It is possible it's another ingredient in there doing it, but gluten free products don't cause the reaction. (It's what I call 'wet gluten' that bothers her - the bumps don't stay there but for a day or so, it just seems to react while her skin and hair is wet). Since she'll be wearing this goop in her hair for extended times, I want her to be comfy.

Thanks so much!

Check out Garnier--they are very good about labeling and most of their hair products are gluten-free. They have great customer service, too :)

There are a lot of ShiKai products that are gluten free. I use their shampoo and conditioner.

___________________________________________

Thank you for your interest in ShiKai Products. All of our products are gluten free except for our moisturizing shower gels as they contain colloidal oatmeal and our borage moisturizer with SPF 15 as the starch in it is derived from wheat. Thank you and have a good day.

**Otherwise all of the the Dessert Essence Organics products are vegan and gluten free! www.desertessence.com/organics

I love their Coconut line of products....shampoo, conditioner,body wash, lotion, hand soap!! :)

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
