Tips on being scent free for your appointment:
1. EWG.org (Environmental Working Group) is a useful resource for unscented and less toxic laundry and personal care products.
2. Some big brand “unscented “ laundry detergent and liquid fabric softener actually releases strong chemical fumes. Choosing laundry detergent with mostly biodegradable ingredients and white vinegar as fabric softener might be healthier for you and the environment.
3. Unscented deodorants are available at online stores, health food stores, pharmacies and some grocery stores.
4. DO NOT use scented shampoo at least 48 hours prior to your appointment, and DO NOT wear clothing that had come in contact with scents until after your appointment.
5. Unscented dryer sheets are available at most grocery stores. Reusable wool dryer balls can save electricity and the need for dryer sheets.
