Anyone else have problems with products that have alcohol?

I am noticing that my hair feels a little dry. I started noticing this when I use to use Motions foaming lotion. I traced it to the alcohol in it.

Well this weekend I used Nexxus and noticed that my hair felt a little dry. I looked at the conditioners that I used and they have alcohol in them.

Anyone else have this problem? If so, what products do you use?

Some alcohols are drying (such as SD-40) but some are conditioning such as certreyl (sp).

Most conditioners that I have have the conditioning alcohols. I try to obstain from the drying ones. I am going to google to find and post more info for you.

Okay Here are some of the bad alcohols that you shoudl avoid:

SD-40, 40-B, 23, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, SD alcohol

Here are some of the good alcohols:
cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, octyl alcohol, aleyl alcohol, and hexyl alcohol
