Review: Fekkai Au Naturel & Chi Organics Shampoo and Conditioner...Sulfate and Paraben Free!!


Research studies are beginning to shed light on hormone disrupting chemicals and other toxins on your skin every day, and hair products personal care - and the picture is disturbing! A recent report published in 2007 shows over 90% of water samples in the San Francisco Bay were heavily contaminated with different hormone disrupting chemicals. The link to acne, weight gain and other problems are beginning to be false.

According National Institutes of Health (NIH)

"Acne is a disorder resulting from the action of hormones on sebaceous glands skin (sebaceous glands) leading to plugged pores and outbreaks of lesions commonly called pimples or blemishes. "hormonal imbalance affects adolescents and 50% of adult women.

Ingredients contained in skin care and many acne products have been found to be hormone disruptors. It is important be aware of ingredients that may be causing more problems than they are solving. Marketers have the opportunity to take the acne treatments and products for skin care free market of the same ingredients that may have caused the problem.

Below are references to help you decide which are the factors that should be avoided:

Parabéns. Brunell University a decade ago in Britain, identified parabens as xeno-estrogens penetrated the skin, contributing to infertility and hormonal imbalances. The Food and Drug Administration U.S. (FDA) called parabens the most widely used preservative. Avoid these preservatives, if possible for several reasons - including its relationship to breast cancer in men and women.

Sodium Laureth Sulfate. An ingredient proven by the FDA and found to contain dioxane. (see below dioxins)

Peg. These ingredients are potentially disrupting hormone due to the presence of dioxins and phthalates. (Testimony of Congress for the Subcommittee Assistant Surgeon General)

- Dioxins. Family of chemicals containing chlorine widely recognized as some of the most toxic chemicals ever made by humans. Dioxins are often contained in anti-bacterial ingredients such as triclosan, which was also Agent Orange. Most acne products contain antibacterial ingredients.

- Phthalates. Scientists from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have found that chemicals called phthalates, which are known hormone disruptors, cause birth defects in animals. These are powerful toxic to reproduction and development. They do not belong to products acne, shampoo or other products marketed to adolescents or women of childbearing age.

FD & C Color Pigments, Perfumes. "Humans are exposed to tens of thousands of potentially harmful synthetic organic and inorganic chemicals in your daily life in the form of pesticides, dyes, pigments, perfumes, spices and other products. At relatively low levels of exposure to these chemicals can promote weight gain, says Dr. Baillie-Hamilton, "by altering the metabolic functions of the body." According to a study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, these chemicals can cause hormonal disturbances and damage to many body's natural weight control mechanisms playing a significant role in the epidemic obesity worldwide.

Fragrance. Some fragrance ingredients are hormone disrupters, which contain highly toxic chemicals (Environmental Health Network, the FDA Office of Cosmetics Fact Sheet)

Benzyl peroxide. This can be a hormone disrupter, but it causes irritation skin, allergic reactions, inflammation, and as stated in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Anyone with acne need an ingredient that causes inflammation and redness.

In summary, scientific evidence is that formal legislation stimulated in California. Safe Cosmetics Act of California, which entered into force in January 2007, aims to restrict and absolute prohibition of the use of ingredients that are carcinogens, hormone disruptors, neurotoxins and dangerous for humans or their pets. With a lack of oversight by the FDA, pending legislative and regulatory restrictions additional to other states in the future next.

neem shampoo

by Jess from on 2010-01-02
This shampoo is fabulous. It is completely non drying and really moisturizes it. Neem is a great product for those who arn't aware, but this shampoo is one of the best of all types that I've gotten and one of my favorites. The fact neem has antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties is an added plus for good hygiene and cleanliness.


Amazing, noticeable difference after one use

by NorCor from Navarre, FL on 2009-09-23
I bought this shampoo and conditioner based on the fabulous reviews I read here first. I found the scent odd, while clean-smelling. The product is very watery and will run right through your fingers. I do little squirts on my head directly to avoid waste. Most importantly, however, is what a fabulous job the shampoo did to calm my scalp. It's no longer itchy, no more flakes - ever. Even with the strange scent and wateriness, I still give it five stars for its effectiveness. Kudos neem, whatever you are.

Thera Neem Organic Shampoo smells like medicine

by T. Livingston from Johnston, RI USA on 2010-01-17
Hi, this shampoo works nice for my hair but it is difficult to get past the smell, it is like medicine. This could be due to the herbs in the shampoo, but I am not crazy about the scent so will use this up and go for another brand with a nice smell.

For Sensitive Scalps, Yes; For Dry Hair, No

by NorCor from Navarre, FL on 2009-09-23
It may have moisturized my scalp and left me itch-free. However, my hair felt no more moisturized than before I used it. (And this judgement is based on the immediate feeling when wet in the shower and after it is dried.) I love the shampoo, and perhaps the conditioner works with the shampoo to calm the scalp. Perhaps I need a third product to make my hair moisturized.
