This is what I found . . .
"When choosing a product with alcohol, consider those with plant-derived alcohols, such as witch hazel, that act as lipo-solvents. This means they act like skin care products, moisturizing by emulsifying fatty acids anda llowing other beneficial proteins to penetrate. While some alcohols are more dehydrating to the hair than others (such as SD Alcohol and Isopropyl Alcohol), the important issue is to find formulas with a low percentage."

The only alcohol I know of in the 'good' category is Cetyl alcohol.
