allergies when i get out of the shower?

I just moved in with my mother in law.  And every time i take a shower and wash my hair she starts to cough. We figured out that it is was every time i wash my hair.  I have since switched my shampoo and conditioner three times. But no matter what she is has cant stop coughing.  She has taken allergy meds for the past three years and be doing great until i moved in. Please help, I don't understand i even try using exactly what my husband washes with but nothing helps.  Is there anything i can do different? thank you

I used to sneeze alot after I took showers. Not sure why, but it rarely happens now. My diet has changed and I also take much quicker showers and use only mild fragrence free soaps and shampoos. Eventhough you've switched brands, they still probably have many common ingredients. Good Luck!

My dad has asthma and cannot handle high humidity. Maybe the coughing could be from that??? Does she cough after her showers, too???Best wishes with you and your mother-in-law.
