Looking for Hypoallergenic Hair Spray
What problems do you face in taking care of your skin? Since my wife is allergic to almost all odors, I'm looking for a hair spray that is hypoallergenic. There may not be such a product.
My reply:
Hi, thank you for writing. Yes, it is very difficult to find good hypoallergenic hair products, especially those with no added fragrance. I really empathize! One of the problems I've found with fragrance free products is that many still contain irritating chemicals like parabens or more intense preservatives, so even though you don't get a scent, you might be taking in more irritants than your skin can handle.
Many of the safer products that are available may contain no added fragrance, but may have a mild scent from the ingredients themselves. I've found this with most of the the skin care and cosmetic products that I use.
Since many product lines are in transition right now, I've set up a small online store to share some of the current hypoallergenic hair spray and hypoallergenic hair gel products that I am finding. You can check the ingredients and perhaps call the merchants directly to see how much fragrance they may contain.
I hope this will be helpful for your wife!
Best wishes,
Mashubi
