What happens if you use baby shampoo instead of normal shampoo?

Your hair will become short and blond like a baby's!What happens if you use baby shampoo instead of normal shampoo?
Typical shampoos (Head and Shoulders in this example) will have these ingredients:





Cleansers:


Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Cocamide MEA, Ammonium Laureth Sulfate





Conditioning Agents:


Dimethicone, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride





While baby shampoos (such as Johnson and Johnson, in this example) have these ingredients:





Cleansers:


PEG-80 Sorbitan Laurate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Trideceth Sulfate, Lauroamphoglycinate, PEG 150 Distearate, Sodium Laureth 13 Carboxylate





Conditioning Agents: Polyquaternium-10





You’ll notice that the cleansers are very different. H%26amp;S and many other shampoos are based on lauryl sulfates to clean and provide lather. But these sulfates are such good detergents that they irritate the cells in your eyes, causing them to burn. Baby shampoos use milder surfactants (known as amphoteric surfactants) that clean without causing that burning sensation – that’s why baby shampoos are labeled “tear-free.”





Another characteristic of amphoteric surfactants is that they don’t foam as well as sulfates and they’re not as good at cutting grease. This usually isn’t a problem for babies, but if your hair is really dirty you may have to lather, rinse, repeat.





Also, your hair may feel a bit softer because you’re not stripping it as much.What happens if you use baby shampoo instead of normal shampoo?
Baby shampoo has a lot of detergent in it, it will really dry out your scalp. (You can also use it to clean ';ring around the collar'; grease on your clothes.) Find a shampoo for your type of hair, color treated, limp, curly, etc. You'll be happier with the results.
I don't think anything bad could happen... It's gentle and smells good... so why not use it?
you have clean hair ether way!lol
