Disappointed by Pine Shale ingredient.
I visited EWG.org (EWG's Skin Deep Database) to view the health of the product's ingredients. All ingredients were great except the pine shale, which is said to have possible human carcinogenic properties. I will try another MM shampoo product showing as 100% free of harmful ingredients. My hair is thick and short and I had to use an unusually large amount to wash my hair, which is cost prohibitive for me. I will be able to get 4 to 5 washes from one bottle. The pros: my scalp feels better, cleaner, and breathes better. My scalp tends to stay cooler and does not get irritated during hot summer days. My hair looks a bit more bouncy, but I am not sure how well the product is hydrating my hair. I have not used the product long enough to determine if it is making it softer and more pliable. Overall, I do like the product.<br /><br />The product itself is a strange mixture, an almost mud like consistency. It has a flat type lather (no big bubbles)and doesn't smell the best. The smell does not dissipate from the hair after shampooed hair has dried. But hey, if this can help restore my overall health (help rebalance my hormones) then that's a plus.
