German curlies :)

[Kadi183]

Hi

I wondered if anyone who also lives in Germany has any good recommendations for shampoos that are sulfate free. At the moment I use a baby shampoo by dm, which is sulfate free, and actually baby shampoos are the only ones I find when I try looking for a sulfate free poo. And then it seems that a lot of them also contain glycerin, which my hair doesn't like.
And then I wondered: I think I read that Methosulfate is a "better" sulfate that can be used in a CG-routine.
So any recommendations for shampoos with Methosulfate would be ok too?

Hey, I make my own shampoos using ingredients and recipes from Hobbythek. I love them, with these shampoos I got rid of my dandruff and my hair stopped being oily. I totally recommend it !

If you live in a small town, you can also get the stuff online from Jean Pütz Produkte But check first if there is a store in your town.
They also sell ready-made shampoos which are a bit pricier. But making my own is pretty easy, it takes me a few minutes every few months. And it´s fun to customise the scents and ingredients.
The first time you might have to spend a bit more money (I spent 20€ for the ingredients, because you have to buy bigger quantities than you need to make just one shampoo) but some of them you use very small quantities, so after 3 years there is still some stuff that I haven´t repurchased.

Wow, that sounds really cool, but where do you get the recipes from? Do they "sell" them to you too, or do you just experiment? Cause for example, I wouldn't want my product to get rotten after a few days
Yeah, I live in a really small village, so I might check out the online store thing

If you're willing to order anyway, you could try Aubrey Organics as well.
Have you tried c/o washing?

Hi,

have you tried looking in a "Reformhaus" other than that, you can order here Lexies Curls - Pflegeprodukte für naturlockige Haare und mehr
The shop is located in Germany, so you don't have high shipping fees. I recommend the Jessicurl Gentle Lather Shampoo. The shop does not have as many products as curlmart or britishcurlies (where I like to order), but they are expanding their range.

Liebe Grüße

Hi,

here's another wavy german looking for the HG.

I think I found cones in one of the baby shampoos from the dm-brand, thats why I use one from bübchen. But I think there's glycerin in it too.

Maybe you should read this thread: Germany curlies

By the way, I've never seen Lexies Curls products in a Reformhaus here. That's not fair! (well maybe i just didn't see it )

Hi,

what I meant is that you can find a sulfate free shampoo in a Reformhaus or order products online at Lexies curls. She sells a few the brands you can buy at Curl Mart.

They give the recipes to you, they are also online. You add natural conservants, so things don´t go bad. Well, some other stuff has a limited time that you can store it, but shampoo lasts for ages.

Also, the stores Müller, Rossmann and DM each have their own brand of cheap natural cosmetics (Alverde, Alterra etc), and their stuff is free from SLS, cones, parabens and other crap. I actually think that all these brands are actually manufactured by the same factory, and then packaged differently for each store, because the products are very similar and even the names and the packaging are alike.

Hey curlies,

I am a graduate student of business and I am writing my thesis on voluntary simplification of consumption, specifically the CG/no poo movement. A topic quite close to my heart, as well...

I would love to interview any of you ladies, and men of course, to know your experience with the process and what motivated you in the first place.
I am trying to get a decent sample of americans and europeans. I also speak fluent french and german, if that helps. I would really appreciate any PMs or if you can point me to some people who might be interested...

Can we speak in German, too?
Or please come to me and we meet us in my hair-dairy. Klick "My Hair" in the signature and we will come together! Gemeinsam ist man weniger allein.
