I have had an extremely event- filled life with many extreme high and low points. I've even learned a few lessons along the way, and I hope that I can be of service to anyone who asks. I have definite opinions on quite a few relationship topics, especially- but not limited to- child development. Please feel free to ask me, as all 3 of my children (raised with very few resources)are extremely well adjusted young adults.
Also, I've been divorced 3 times, so I know pretty much what NOT to do in a married relationship.

Ok, so my hair stylist told me I shouldn't use baby shampoo on my kids. She claims that tear-free soaps and shampoos contain Novocaine or something similar.
Now, I'm no fool. I go home, first thing I do is read the ingredients listed on the bottle of shampoo. Nowhere do I find Novocaine, or any other "caine" type of ingredient.
So I tried looking it up online. Someone asked it on Yahoo Answers and said it also contains formaldehyde.
What the...? Come on! Give me a break, already, ok?
I'm not very internet savvy, so that's the best I could come up with. So please don't tell me to Google.
I don't need to have this concern about the soap that goes into the eyes, noses, ears, and sometimes mouths of my children!
Please! Somebody give me a FACT.
Solid Fact.
Links to reliable sources GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Don't worry that you may do looking for nothing- I do rate accordingly.
Thanks for your help...

I've been a salesman for most of my adult life, and I know quite a few tricks, as well as common sense approaches to problems. I'm quite sure that your hairstylist has EXACTLY the product needed to solve this so-called problem, which by the way, was not a problem until the stylist created it.
Ask yourself this very basic question- have the makers of baby shampoo stayed in business ALL these years by adding poisons, or anything harmful for that matter, to their products? The answer is a resounding NO!!!!!
It sounds like a certain stylist is trying to sell OVERPRICED products by using two very basic human emotions- FEAR and GUILT.Maybe instead of changing shampoo you need to change stylists.

Thank you so much! What you said makes so much sense. Ah, but I wish they wouldn't use fear and guilt targeted at babies to make a sale. I understand you're a salesman, so please take no offense when I say that's hitting below the belt. :-(
