SLS Free Shampoos

Now, I've talked about being nice to gastropods. I've talked about being nice to each other ie not using each other as slave labour for cheap clothes. Now it's time to be nice to yourself! Because your worth it apparently!!!

I get really upset about excessive use of toxic chemicals, it all builds up you know. Just imagine, you put those rotten blue pellets around your hostas to stop me from having an innocent nibble, next thing you know I'm dead. But I'm also poison. Along comes a black bird, not my favourite mates admittedly, sees me looking all juicy, thinks 'dinner' to himself and next thing you know he's full of the nasty blue pellets. It's a process known as bio-accumulation. Sometimes the toxic effects grow exponentially as toxins proceed up through the food chain, this is bio-magnification -bad news if you're a whale, not so great if you're human either.

But of course, you lot aren't just throwing chemicals all over your gardens and offending me. Oh no, you bring them into your own homes everywhere. You even rub them into your scalp on a daily basis. Don't believe me? When was the last time you read the ingredients on the back of a bottle of shampoo? Did you know that SLS or sodium lauryl sulphate was an industrial degreasant? You want to clean your head with that? It can cause pitting of the skin and allows these chemicals to pass into the bloodstream. SLS has been known to cause improper eye development in infants. You might really want to think twice before your next hairwash. Or at least go and check this article out at Sustainable Living Project.

Oh dear, I think I need a nice picture of a juicy plant to cheer me up - oops, just like that pak choi above - that's better. Now go and check out the alternatives to shampoos that are laced with chemical nasties.
