A substance called Sodium laureth sulfate is commonly found in mosts shampoos, and the manufacturesr use it because it produces a lot of foam and is cheap. But, sodium laureth sulfate is used to scrub garage floors, and it is very strong. It has also been roven that it cause cancer. so, check out the ingredients of your shampoo!!!!!

Many shampoos do contain sodium laureth sulfate, a foaming and cleansing agent that can also found in toothpaste and mouthwashes, but it does not cause cancer and it is not proven! The greatest health threat it poses is eye irritation which can be quickly remedied with clean water.
