Suggestion for boys deoderant, please!

[pbjmeyer]

My son is 11, and I need to get him a deoderant - but I don't know what brand would be good. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I let my sons choose the ones they want based on the smell. There are some scents they just don't care for, and others they don't mind.

It is supposed to be completely natural. Baking soda and such deodorant. Not a perfumey scent. HTH

my guys (and gal) like Axe. ds2 uses a deodorant solid, Axe dry,and then a body spray - touches up with the fragrance they like, dd carries the spray in her purse for touch ups. Better to buy with a coupon or on sale.

there is something about 11 yo boys though! Poor things, they just have BO. It is an awkward hygiene time for them.

I second the Arm and Hammer, my Dh gets it in Fresh scent, I get the unscented. They work well and are aluminum and paraben free.

My two boys (11 & 13) like Old Spice Red Zone Deodorant Body Spray. I can't speak to the health/safety of its ingredients, though. What I can say is that they get a kick out of spraying it on, then coming to give me a big hug because they know it's too strong a smell for me! Oh, well--at least I got the hug!

My two boys, ages 14 and 17, love the Axe products!

Time to take him to walmart and have him decide on one he will use without a fight.:)
For some reason the idea of using deoderant seems to bother him - like he's failing at smelling good on his own!
Thanks again!

This is the MOST important part- you don't want aluminum under your arm right over lymph glands!

I bought DS the Jason Organics; aluminum and paraben free. I didn't know the Arm & Hammer was safe as well. I will look for that when he needs more.
