I know Sodium Laureth Suphate is an ingredient to avoid, but what about the
naturally derived one from coconut?

It makes no difference whether it comes from coconut or mineral oil - it's the process
the source oil goes through that renders the final product toxic. Coconut "derived"
products are no better than the others. The only claim they can make is that the
ingredient comes from renewable resources, as opposed to non-renewable
petrochemical resources.

Do you use sodium laureth sulfate in your shampoos?
Sodium laureth sulfate is an ethoxylated surfactant. A serious problem with
ethoxylated surfactants is that they utilise ethylene or propylene oxide in the chemical
reaction, which are carcinogenic, and they can also be contaminated with dioxane, a
potent carcinogen, as a by-product of the manufacturing process. Ethoxylated
surfactants are listed on labels as ingredients ending with –eth, (like laureth) or
containing the phrase PEG (PolyEethylene Glycol), or PPG (PolyPropylene Glycol).
We absolutely do not use these ingredients. We never have and we never will. All of
our ingredients are listed on our labels.

I
have found a website that states that there has been an internet hoax about
SLES causing cancer. How do you respond to that?
SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate) is an ethoxylated surfactant, which can be
contaminated with dioxane and ethylene oxide, two known carcinogens. One
probably cannot say with all certainty that SLES causes cancer, but do you really
want to be a guinea pig to test the hypothesis.

What is suttocide glycerin? I have another company claiming it to be natural
and safe.
Suttocide glycerin is the trade name for sodium hydroxymethylglycinate which is a
toxic synthetic preservative. The fact they aren't listing the ingredient by it's correct
INCI name is misleading to consumers.

What's the story with parabens?  Another company is telling me they are
safe.

I've pasted information from the methyl paraben MSDS(Material Safety Data Sheet)
