Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Does anyone have reactions to the products they use on their skin and hair? I am reading a book that says if you can't have gluten then you also have to watch what you put on your skin and in your hair? I use Aveda and just bought a huge bottle and I am wondering if I should stop using it because I heard it has wheat protein in it.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 It's something that I'm struggling with right now. I have a face/neck rash that just will not go away. I just went through a ten-day run with high-concentration cortisone cream, and it hardly did a thing. It is so concentrated that the doc said do not under any circumstances use it for more than ten days in a row. I'm going to get " gluten-free " shampoo, conditioner, and laundry detergent this weekend, and see if it helps. I think the detergent in my pillowcase may be causing some of the rash. Hope so, anyway.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm guessing that the book you're reading, Olivia, is referring to the skin condition dermatitis herpetiformis. For people that have this condition, not only can they not eat gluten, but it cannot touch their skin as well. For those of us who just suffer from Celiac Disease, it isn't a problem.
