Re: Beauty myths exposed!

@emblem

shampoos are very damaging to your hair, maybe it is a good idea to wash your hair daily but perhaps, with a better shampoo that doesn’t include all the chemicals present in department store shampoos. i once received a forward from a friend that said that the regular shampoos we use (pantene, head & shoulders, etc…), contain this carcinogenic chemical that is also used in car wash soaps to create bubbles. Thats probably why the expensive shampoos and soaps don’t make so many bubbles!!

And all that is a lie. Just because you receive something in an email doesn’t make it true.

The website below gives a detailed explanation

FACT CHECK: Does Sodium Lauryl Sulfate in Shampoo Pose a Cancer Risk?

And the American Cancer Society debunks the myth too.

These types of emails are always traced back to various multi-level marketing companies (such as Amway, etc), that have a purely commercial interest in getting people to stop buying products sold at big supermarkets, and buying their products instead. In other words, it’s a dirty tricks campaign.
