Aveda Cosmetics And Hair Care

The salon I'd like to hire for my wedding hair/make up only uses AVEDA products. I have a list of AVEDA products that CONTAIN gluten, which is extensive, but there is no indication of how many "safe" products remain....Want to be sure I'll have options. Does/has anyone use(d) AVEDA since going gluten-free? I'm mostly concerned about the cosmetics. I can take my own shampoo/hairspray to the salon.

Thanks.

I got a basket with some Aveda shampoo and lotions. The shampoo had gluten but all the lotions are ok.

I would think if you are in a salon and someone else is washing your hair, that it doesn't matter if the shampoo or conditioner has gluten in it. I don't see how you could get it in your mouth when you are sitting at one of those sinks. I do use gluten-free shampoo only at home, but I don't worry about it there.

As for makeup, I don't worry about anything on my eyes because I don't see how I could get that in my mouth. I am very conscious about not putting my fingers in my mouth in case I have touched something with gluten I would think you only need to worry about the lipstick and foundation. If you have good foundation and lipstick that you use at home, you could bring that with you.

I realize that different people have different comfort zones, so you will need to do what you feel is best, but if it was me, I wouldn't worry about the shampoo, conditioner or eye make up and I would bring my own foundation and lipstick.

I would go visit the salon in advance to discuss your options so you don't have to the day you're in there. A lot of their shampoos and conditioners do have gluten (either wheat or barley, mainly). I think you could probably find a shampoo and a conditioner without gluten, but I don't think they'll be the same kind. I could find both shampoos and conditioners last time I was there, but they didn't match.

I get a rash if I use a product with gluten on my face, so I don't have the option of using glutenous stuff that won't make it into my mouth. Everyone's needs are different. I'd make a trip over there beforehand to make the arrangements and so they are ready to accomodate you. And, I would take no chances on my wedding day!!!!

      There is plenty of gluten food that is unplatable also. The trouble in restaurants is that wheat,  like the Frank's Hot Sauce commercial; "They throw that bleep on everything." In my opinion, the underlying problem is compromised immune system due to vitamin D deficiency and Green Revolution modern wheat.  50% of the industrialized world are vitamin D deficient and we are urged to avoid sun and limit oral vitamin D intake to the minimum.   Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity became an official diagnosis only 10 years after modern wheat was marketed.

      I understand from one of our forum moderators who is UK-based that the benefits of having an official celiac diagnosis varies depending on your postal code. So then, it must be a benefit tied to local government rather than national government.

      I think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).  think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).

      Obviously, you have looked at all this from various angles and I respect that. But consider this, you could trial the gluten-free diet for six months to see if it results in lower ttg-iga scores. If so, it is another piece of evidence pointing to celiac disease. You could then go off the gluten fast and return to a gluten loaded diet for weeks or months and repeat the colonoscopy/endoscopy. My point is that trialing a gluten-free diet does not eliminate the possibility of getting valid celiac retesting at a late date if you are willing to engage with the gluten challenge.
