Any reccommendations?
I have bought a lot of products that are supposedly "organic' but then find they are not as organic as they claim to be, with a lot of artificial additives in them. I'm looking for products that work, but are also good for you. Specifically, shampoos, conditioners and creams.

Lush springs to mind, they claim to be organic and preservative free and have a website. Click here. (http://www.lush.co.uk/)

Thanks! Have you used Lush? The problem I have, is my hair is thick but baby fine in texture, and a lot of the organic shampoos I've tried weigh it down.

Not personally, I have long hair but I'm a bloke so I just 'let it happen' (usually a frizzy mess!). I was in there a few weeks ago (with a friend getting valentines pressie) and they have a good selection of stuff for all the different hairtypes. Maybe you could buy the smallest size in whatever suits and give it a go?

I've been using these people for two years now: http://www.abelandcole.co.uk/Home.aspx
The produce is not only 100% organic; it comes from small local privately-owned farms so it's also FairTrade and reduces transport polution.

Organic Shampoo/Conditioners do tend to do that unfortunately.
I’ve used Neway's in the past and their shampoo ect was the best I’ve used.
Have a look at their site because their products, vitamins ect ect are excellent!

I live in Romania, and constantly searching healthy foods is a challenge ( I'm also a nutritionist who likes to cook :) ). But findind " healthy " or homegrown is virtually extinct . Lately I found that even the seeds farmers use to cultivate are imported :( . So it's virtually impossible to make the healthy choice in Romania. I hope it's better in your neck of the woods.

Oh what a nice picture you have there sebastian! :D
With the way prices are going here, I sort of think we will be having to make our own concoctions.
