I'm interested in the Wen haircare system. I emailed them and will let you know if I get a response....

Has anyone else emailed them?

Purely from a product point of view, I used this line and did not like it. It's expensive and didn't do anything special for me, and I needed help bad. My hair was in poor shape from nutritional deficiencies and thyroid problems. I found better luck with John Master's organic line (styling products), and Desert Essence Organics Coconut shampoo and conditioner...available for $7 each at Wholefoods and clearly states its gluten free. I get compliments all the time now on the shine and health of my hair...I NEVER thought that would happen again (before gluten issues, my hair was so beautiful and easy to deal with).

I ordered these products a while back but had to send them back. I don't remember if it was wheat or soy protein in them that made them a no go for me. Companies do change ingredients though so please post their response when you get one.

Thank you both!! I'll look into the others you mentioned!

I have it, I actually love it. It's the only 'shampoo' that helps with my scalp psoriasis. It is, however, FULL of wheat, so watch out! I don't use it as a leave in conditioner and I use it in a separate shower that my kids use.

      Oops! @Staticgypsy, I’ll get the book! Thank you!

      Thank you so much for your help, @trents and @Staticgypsy! I so appreciate your thoughts. My diet is high in foods with oxalates and I don’t notice any issues there. If eliminating gluten from my diet had changed anything I’d be happy to just keep on the gluten-free diet, but with eating gluten several times with no rash, and having a rash when I was many years into gluten-free eating (and was much more careful at that point), I’m just baffled. Many, many thanks to you both.

      I did'nt know that, I will check what specifically the blood tests were for. Thanks

      Sorry, @JudyLou, as reread your post, I see that you have had gene testing done already.

      Welcome to the forum, @Mark Conway! Can you be more specific about the "coeliac" test your doctor did? There are more than one of them. What was the name of the test? Also, did he order a "total IGA" test? This is a test to check for IGA deficiency and should always be ordered along with the tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. If you are IGA deficient, the IGA celiac blood antibody tests used to check for celiac disease per se will not be accurate. Also, if you have been cutting back on gluten before the tests, that will render them invalid. You must have be eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months before the blood draw to render valid test results.
