Looks like sulfates when I read the ingredients so how can it be sulfate free?

Like many other "sulfate free" shampoos, this product uses sulfate replacements. These alternatives are merely sulfate relatives (like sulfonates, sulfosuccinates, etc.) If you have keratin infused treated hair, this product will strip away the treatment.

The ingredient you have to particularly avoid is Sodium Laureth Sulfate! This is a chemical that has likelihood to cause cancer, according to scientists. Other than that, you can't totally avoid the sulfate stuff. There are bad sulfate and not-too-bad sulfate, you just have to be careful with really bad ones.

Can't answer that --it does say sulfate free clearly on the back of bottle, you are correct, when I read further, the fine print, it says some sort of sulfasuccinate, I am not a scientist, but I still like the product a lot for my curly hair.

I looked at the shampoo and leave-in conditioner ingredients and I couldn't find the word sulfate on either.

I just read them as well, I have enjoyed this shampoo for a long time. since writing this, i have found a shop on ETSY that has wonderful products without the sulfates. Redkin also makes great shampoos for colored hair . i have STOPPED using the shampoo and just use the It's a 10 Deep Conditioner...

It has a ingredient called Benzyl Salicylate not sure if this is a sulfate or not, but it may be. Sorry wish I could be more help. You can probably look it up online to be sure one way or another.

The ingredients are listed on the original packaging which I no longer have. I can tell you that it is paraben, fragrance and sulfate free. I really like this product because it is the most gentle and yet still effective at removing all traces of makeup. I also like how creamy it glides over my skin as many of the ultra gentle cleansers do not have enough "slip" and tug at the skin when massaging and cleansing. Hope this helps!

It has some sulfate ingredient. I don't eat it because of that. Waste of money. Egg white powder taste like ass anyway. Try liquid egg whites at the store. About the same prize per ounce. I cook mine with coconut oil.

Sulfate free yes. Salt free not sure. I color my blonde hair and found the shampoo and conditioner a little drying. I use the one for color treated and much happier.

Sulfate free, but it contains sodium. It's the next ingredient after water.

I bought it thinking it was sulfate free, since I've had a keratin treatment as well. However, when it arrived the label showed it had sulfates. So I returned it and bought the Acai brand.

Yes, this product is sulfate and sodium free. I don't have keratin treated hair now, but when I did, it was one of the products recommended besides the GK Hair product line (it was the keratin product line I used at the time).

I think it is sulfate free. Although sulfate free has been promoted as better. .it has been my personal experience that it was not better in my case. This one was good because of the Argon oil but most sulfate free shampoos and conditioners leave me with dry. .frizzy and tangled hair.

I read the ingredients and didn't see anything that said sulfates, but I don't know chemistry. I just love the way it makes my hair feel and look.

It is sulfate free. It contains 'sulfosuccinate' which is not technically a sulfate. It's still more of a chemical than you'd get from raw vegan products, but no worse than you'd get from Body Shop stuff four times the price. I really have not ever felt it's harsh or stripping. One of my pals used to harsh sulfates even said 'I don't think it's getting my hair clean' which means, he's not used to the NON-STRIPPED feeling in his hair! :) Hope this helps.

There is nothing on the list of ingredients to suggest that it contains any sulfates. A search of the Internet says specifically that the color save version of this product is sulfate free.

Both the shampoo and conditioner contain sulfates. Wish I would've check for ingredients online before buying.

My concern is this: sulfates are technically derived from coconuts (the lauryl alcohol used in surfactants). I believe "coconut-based cleansers" is a tricky way around mentioning one of the sulfates which the average consumer is now aware of. Notice the brand does not state that it is actually free of sulfates in the list of "non-ingredients."

I wish I could answer that. You will have to call the company and find out from them. How do you tell if there are sulfates in a shampoo especially if they claim sulfate-free?

Distearoylethyl Hydroxyethylmonium Methosulfate is one of the product's ingredients - so it's not sulfate free.
