I'm trying the abba line pure moisture shampoo trying to go sulfate free and wanted to go cone free at the same time. I love the smell of the mint in this product.
cyclomethicone, dimethiconol, hydrolyzed wheat protein, and wheat starch are in the ingredients

I need a chemistry biology degree to read these ingredients! :confused:

thanks

Well I just bought a cone - and so much for asking the stylist for product help. I was told the Cyclomethicone was an alcohol preservative!

Ummmm yep. Stylists usually don't know, they are trained to sell the product and usually not much more. Fortunately there are exceptions to the rule, and I'm going to be so very heartbroken when we move and I can't see my stylist anymore (300 mile move).
