    Life is like a bath, the longer you are in it the more wrinkly you become.

    I've heard it can cause blindness though.

    I like the Yes to range which are "98% Natural Free from parabens, SLS and Phthalates
    Cruelty-free", average £3-4

    Savers also sell a Henara S & C range which is paraben & SLS free etc. it's £1.00

    Hair doesn't need to be washed everyday.

    So - you wash hair every other day, you reduce exposure to whatever by 50%. Do it every third day, you reduce exposure by 66%.
    No longer a spouse, or trailing, but MSE won't allow me to change my username...
