gluten-free Hair Products

My sweet little girl is going to be a Who from Whoville in the Children's Theatre play of Seussical in our town. I don't see any problem with the make-up since I can find products that are fine for her. To save me the trouble of looking through hair products and tearing my own hair out trying to decipher the ingredients, does anyone have any suggestions for me? The Who's all have some crazy hairstyles and top ponytails, buns, etc. She will have this in her hair for several hours at a time for several days straight. I'm looking for gel, mousse and super strong hair spray. She has very fine hair that is hard to keep styled anyway.

Before anyone says it - I KNOW that gluten products on the skin are not supposed to cause a reaction. We've had her tested for allergies and it was fine. However, shampoo and conditioner with gluten in it causes little bumps on the back of her neck and top of her back (where her hair hits) that itch. I don't know why. It is possible it's another ingredient in there doing it, but gluten free products don't cause the reaction. (It's what I call 'wet gluten' that bothers her - the bumps don't stay there but for a day or so, it just seems to react while her skin and hair is wet). Since she'll be wearing this goop in her hair for extended times, I want her to be comfy.

Thanks so much!

Check out Garnier--they are very good about labeling and most of their hair products are gluten-free. They have great customer service, too :)

There are a lot of ShiKai products that are gluten free. I use their shampoo and conditioner.

___________________________________________

Thank you for your interest in ShiKai Products. All of our products are gluten free except for our moisturizing shower gels as they contain colloidal oatmeal and our borage moisturizer with SPF 15 as the starch in it is derived from wheat. Thank you and have a good day.

**Otherwise all of the the Dessert Essence Organics products are vegan and gluten free! www.desertessence.com/organics

I love their Coconut line of products....shampoo, conditioner,body wash, lotion, hand soap!! :)

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Mynx · Posted

      It isn't a conjecture. I have gotten glitened from having some distilled white vinegar as a test. When I talked to some of my scientists friends, they confirmed that for a mall percentage of people, distilled white vinegar is a problem. The cross contamination isn't from wheat glue in a cask. While yhe gluten protein is too large to pass through the distillation process, after the distillation process, the vinegar is still cross contaminated. Please don't dismiss or disregard the small group of people who are 100^ gluten intolerant by saying things are conjecture. Just because you haven't done thr research or aren't as sensitive to gluten doesn't mean that everyone is like you.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Mynx · Posted

      Many people will tell you that distilled vinegar is gluten free. The reason this is believed is because the gluten protein molecule is too big to pass through the distillation process. Unfortunately, the liquid ie vinegar is cross contaminated because the gluten protein had been in the liquid prior to distillation process. Most people don't react to distilled vinegar. However, there is a very small group who are 100% gluten intolerant. I'm in thos group. Unless I make homemade ketchup using apple cider vinegar. The rest of the ingredients are gluten free. I have to research every ingredient on a label that I don't already know is gluten free. It's not easy but health wise, it's worth it.

      Confused with test results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's possible, as there are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:    Also, approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Opinions on my test results/symptoms

      Perhaps you could bring you own? Not sure, but worth a try.

      Confused with test results

      I received my ANA test results - negative.  I'm thinking it was infection, was put on antibiotics for suspected sibo at the time blood test was taken. Significant improvements from taking them even while eating gluten.
