I also have chemical sensitivities. Not just to shampoo, but also soaps, shaving gels, lotions, etc. Sometimes the scent is so bad that my nose itches like crazy and my eyes water, sometimes it takes my breath. I also have a skin reaction to alot of chemical ingredients. My reaction wouldn't be considered "bad" because I don't swell and usually don't break out, but try dealing with the feeling of being bitten by millions of ants all over the affected area....
I have to be very careful when trying new products. When I find one that I like, it's really hard to change. I despise companies who discontinue products that work well for me. I find that natural products work best for me. I like ones that have ingredients I can pronounce and recognize. The products I like best are homemade without chemical preservatives. These may not always be practical, but I try to at least use them alternately with store-bought products.
Anyone have a problem with the dyes or fragrances in the shampoos being sold today?
I have chemical sensitivities and they are certainly making them chemically strong. I had to go online and buy a few different ones in order to find one that didn't give me an allergic reaction.
