How is the order in which foods are listed on a food label determined?

Food manufacturers are required to list all ingredients in the food on the label. On a product label, the ingredients are listed in order of predominance, with the ingredients used in the greatest amount first, followed in descending order by those in smaller amounts. The label must list the names of any FDA-certified color additives (e.g., FD&C Blue No. 1 or the abbreviated name, Blue 1). But some ingredients can be listed collectively as "flavors," "spices," "artificial flavoring," or in the case of color additives exempt from certification, "artificial colors", without naming each one. Declaration of an allergenic ingredient in a collective or single color, flavor, or spice could be accomplished by simply naming the allergenic ingredient in the ingredient list. Ingredients are usually listed in descending order. This is called QUID. It is common to list the percentages of the major components and list minor components without percentages. Compound ingredients should also be broken down with components in brackets.

It depends on the shampoo, you'll have to look at the label on your product. Most bottles will have an ingredient list on the back. If there is no label and you really want or need to know the ingredients, go to the website of the manufacturer or brand. There might be a place on the site that will tell you. If that fails, email them or send them a letter and hope for a response.
