Shampoo Recommendation Needed

[edwinie]

Hi all!

I am in my first trimester and having heightened sense of smell, esp from chemicals in laundry wash, softeners and soap.

Does anyone have any recommendation for a shampoo that has no or little smell? I have tried 4 diff shampoos, both adults and children, and they all smell too strong. It sticks to my hair all day and makes me feel nauseous.

Hope to hear from some who went through this before or have tried an odourless shampoo.

Thanks in advance!

I fully understand ur plight and the helplessness you feel right now. I am already in 2nd trimester but gave yet overcome the weird senses. You can try Melalucca herbal shampoo as which is abt $26 per 900ml (which for me is much better den all commercial brands like Panten, Dove etc.... and at least I dont feel so disgusted).
There is definitely no herbal smell and dont know why it is called herbal shampoo. It just contains natural ingredients and for body wash I got it from bodyshop olive flavour. Try go for natural light scents.

Alternatively, this is one method without using shampoo:

I feel nioxin cleanser helps refreshes my scalp, it is minty and refreshing and love the smell.

I tried Futerer shampoo (Green; quite expensive) from Watsons. It is good for hair fall during pregnancy (which i had serious hair fall problems during my first trim) and the smell is tolerable.
