Q - Dimethicone, PEG Polyethylene Glycol, and Propylene Glycol that are in the formulas of the shampoo and conditioner---alcohol derivatives of Petroleum have been associated with cancer.  There are ways to strip the Ethelyn Oxide/ Dioxane from the PEG but how would one know if the stripping procedure was adequately done.??   

 

 

A - Our shampoo does not contain any of these ingredients. With that said, the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the FDA have NOT classified these chemicals as cancer causing agents.
