My shampoo bottle literally says "gluten free." I honestly don't understand that.

That’s just marketing for idiots. You just laughed and bought it anyway, but a startling percentage of people probably bought it because it said that nonsense on the label.

Gluten can be used in shampoo to make it more sticky.

I don't see the value of sticky shampoo.

You would if you tried unsticky shampoo. It would be way too fluid, drip right off and get in your eyes.

So it's a thickener then? Sticky is like a melted marshmallow, molasses, or asphalt sealer.

I use solid shampoo in general, but when I previously used liquid it always lathered right up and did its thing. Never noticed anything sticky about it.
