Hi, thanx for the tip. I never knew that you could also get acne by the products you use in your hair. So now i know, and I want to thank you very much.

I read this in a hairstyling website, as well. Products with synthetic wax, paraben based, or similar will help contribute to this as well. I switched to baby shampoo and have less tangling plus fewer breakouts! I am still recovering from all the soap and shampoo I used that had them.
