As with other parts of our body, when not kept clean it can hide any manner of ‘grimy’ things – and remember that there is skin underneath, so if you suffer from psoriasis or eczema then it is even more important to wash hair in appropriate treatments.
Ok, so Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Shampoo…
The only ... ...were one of the first companies (in fact the reason it was set up by Anita Roddick in the first place) to advocate animal-free tested products. It is also the fact that their products don’t have to rely on mass advertising that promises fantastic results: the products are simple, basic and ‘no frills’.
But I was drawn to the advantages of using a tea tree oil shampoo. Firstly, it is mild in the concentration that is used, and it ...

Advantages: cleans hair well Disadvantages: overpowering smell
...to be good for preventing the dreaded head lice. As my daughter had recently started school, I thought this might be a good deterrent. I was at a Body Shop party so took the opportunity to purchase a bottle of shampoo.
Costing £3.25 for 250ml, it comes in a clear plastic bottle with a black flip-top lid. As with all Body Shop products, the bottle can be returned to any Body Shop store for recycling.
The blurb on the bottle says ‘this refreshing ... ...for very sensitive scalps’.
The shampoo itself is pale green in colour. (I seem to remember it was darker green when I bought it – maybe I left it sitting on the windowsill too long?). The first thing I noticed when I opened the bottle is the smell – it has a very strong smell of tea tree. My daughter screwed up her face and said ‘yuck – what’s that horrible smell’! So, not a popular fragrance in this household! ...

Advantages: Leaves hair and scalp feeling thoroughly clean, soft and shiny hair. Disadvantages: Initially quite a strong smell.
For the last two years I have had problems using various hair care products. I already have intolerances to many foods and various household products. But went on to develop an intolerance to the hair care products I was using. I constantly had a very itchy scalp and my hair was not in very good condition.
On the reccomendation of my nutritionist, I decided to try the Body Shop Tea Tree Oil shampoo, initially buying the smallest bottle, to ensure ... ...only been able to obtain the large size in the factory shop).

Advantages: Best nit killer Disadvantages: stings if goes in the eyes
The body shop's tea tree oil shampoo is the best way of getting rid of those awful things no one wants to talk about nits. I know everyone wouldn't want to admit to there child having nits but it is one of the joys of having children at school they will get them from time to time and as they are so contagious it is very hard for a child to miss them. I have tried every medicated shampoo on the market including ones prescribed by the doctors only ... ...that tea tree oil was the best way to kill them off so I went off to the body shop and bought a bottle. I washed my daughters hair in it for three days on the trot and they'd all gone and now I wash her hair in it once a month and I don't have any problems anymore. Beware of children's eyes though as it does sting if it goes in. ...

...scalp. It got to the point where it became embarrassing as I was constantly scratching my head and people were starting to look! I tried all sorts of treatments, a friend recommended T/Gel which was quite expensive and helped a bit but not completely. I then came across The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Shampoo & Conditioner. I remembered that when I was pregnant I used to use tea tree oil on my extremely itchy belly(!) so I thought I'd give it a go. I've ...
