Poll: What EF shampoo do you use?
This is one area that I'm still struggling with as products are expensive, and I haven't been able to find one I like.
What do you use?

Re: Poll: What EF shampoo do you use?
I like Alba Hawaiian products. The shampoo doesn't have a sudsing agent, so the first time you use it, if you're used to lots of suds like in shampoo commercials, you won't get them and it may seem strange, but your hair will be clean and smell awesome. They're kinda pricey (I've seen single bottles for over 12.00), but the Wal Mart near me carries the shampoo and conditioner I like for about 7.00 a bottle. Which is a lot, I know, when you compare it to commercial brands.
Target sells Say Yes to Carrots and Say Yes to Cucumbers lines. Those are a little more economical, in that they're generally around 8.00 a bottle, but you get like 6 more ounces in both shampoo and conditioner, when compared to the amount in Alba Hawaiian bottles. Again, you're not going to get lots of suds, but your hair will get clean, and (even with the carrots one) smell really nice.
A 12 oz bottle of the Alba Hawaiian stuff lasts me about 6 weeks, and the Say Yes stuff in the 18oz bottles goes for about 2 months. You may get more or less use, depending on how often you wash your hair.
I don't know if you live near a Trader Joe's, but their brand of shampoo and conditioner is ef and works. I just did a search, and apparently, you can buy it on Amazon.com if you don't have a store near you (what don't they sell?) I really like the Tea Tree Tingle w/ peppermint. It makes your scalp feel suuuuuuper clean.
Hope any of this helps. Good luck in your searches!
I've been using Organix. Also, Gudonya is awesome.
ETA: Apparently, Organix isn't the best, but better than some others, and they don't test on animals, which is important to me.
