KNOWLEDGE IS POWER


A question was asked at The Symposium about where we could get information about the ingredients in some of the products we use. The panelists suggested picking up a copy of A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients by Ruth Winter, M.S. It goes for about $17 at Barnes and Noble and it's available electronically as well, but I'm sure you can get a good used copy from Half Price Books or something.

I scanned through the copy online and it is truly a dictionary of any and everything cosmetic. I figure the way to truly learn what products are good for our hair is to get educated about what ingredients they actually contain. This will be a guide to help us read labels so we can be educated consumers. Remember KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. You don't want to use something that's bad for your hair and not know it.

What are some other educational tools we should know about?
