		<description>The &quot;Sulfate free&quot; products are getting a lot of attention, but a certain biochemist I&#039;ve had the pleasure of chatting with has said that the surfactants being used in place of SLS are not really much different, and in some cases, are less effective and equally irritating. A lot of the raves over sulfate free products are a great example of placebo effect. 

As for KC (aka Dakota from Killerstrands), she does indeed sell shampoos, and various other products, and she gives her list members a verbal flogging if they dare mention another product they like, or suggest that a less expensive product worked better than her own overhyped, overpriced conditioner, Thriven. In fact, she is quite abusive to her group members even if they are just having an innocent discussion or asking an innocent question. She&#039;s got to be the greediest, rudest, most selfish (and petulant!) vendor I&#039;ve had the misfortune of doing busniess with. 

Actually, she&#039;s probably no more greedy than the major retailers, but she&#039;s exponentially worse at hiding it.</description>

		<description>I am allergic to sulfa...I quit my (years of) routine visits to beauty salons as I noticed that every time I had my hair done, I immediately got a headache and nose/eyes congested.  As I&#039;ve aged, it seemed to get worse.  I have long suspected it had something to do w/the products, but I didn&#039;t want to give up on the salons.  When I used &quot;regular&quot; shampoos at home, I found I had similar results.  Yesterday I discovered  non-sulfate hair products at Target and went crazy buying the products...I used them last night and I feel a definite difference.  I had never thought to try to read the tiny print of ingredients and find what was causing my problem.  After researching my sulfa allergy, I decided to read labels on my &quot;beauty&quot; products--I was flabergasted!  Everything had sulfa derivatives!  I now will carry a magnifying glass to read ingredients before buying anything!</description>

		<description>Well, I really appreciate the unbiased information provided on &quot;the beauty brains&quot;.  Use the site as a reference all the time!

Kris: the Brains told you how they make their money and you chose not to believe them, instead choosing to believe that they are being paid by a cosmetics company (no matter what they say), and ignoring the fact that the Brains don&#039;t promote products and chemicals? Wow.   

Chew: There are a lot of reasons your hair could be thinning besides the type of shampoo. Many women, including me unfortunately, experience thinning in their mid- to late- 30&#039;s because of perimenopause.</description>
