Aubrey Organics, J/A/S/O/N and you can always make your own. I use Dr. Bronner's castille soap diluted with oil, vegetable glycerin and water (it's a recipe for a moisturizing shampoo). You can also use Suave naturals since they don't have anything bad (recommend Aloe and Water Lily). Jane Carter is supposed to be good, but I haven't bought anything from them just yet.

Thanks guys. I bought a coconut shampoo at BJS but there was no conditioner it's suppose to be natural too. SO I'll look for the conditioner. I use shea butter for moisturizing but it smells bland (for lack of a better word).

use a fragrance oil, I use peppermint, but if you go to any type of health food store you should be able to find another type of oil.

I've seen them even at the Giant down here, well at least at the ones in VA.

Side bar: Have you used Carol's Daughter Hair Milk? I'm on the fence with this one. I like the ingredients, but Iunno since it works well for AJ.

In the earlies i use to use Carol's Daughter stuff, but since she went commercial or sem-commercial it's like she put chemicals in her stuff, because when I try using her products now I break out........ and i loved her stuff.
