Liquids, juices or gels for diabetic passengers who indicate a need for such items to address their medical condition. (A letter from your physician is not necessary).
Boarding area restrictions waived
Passengers are now permitted to take liquids, gels, and/or aerosols purchased in the boarding area onboard the aircraft. This includes all duty free items.
Carry-on baggage restrictions for flights departing non-U.S. locations (except U.K. and Belgium)
Security checkpoint procedures vary outside the U.S. Passengers on non-U.S. departure flights should check with a United representative at the departure airport while checking in and before entering the security checkpoint.

This includes wheels, handles, side pockets, etc. Other bags, such as handbags, may be carried within the single item of cabin baggage. All items carried by passengers will be screened by x-ray.

Yes, you can bring a regular size shampoo and conditioner in your luggage to be checked on the plane but not your carry on bag since it is a liquid agent.

Yes, you can bring your shampoo in the luggage you are going to check-in. Hint: Put your liquids in a zip lock bag, the difference in pressure in the planes cargo hold can cause them to leak.

You can check these items, but you can only bring 3 oz. if you bring them onto your carry on.

The TSA says that they can be up to 100ml, so those tiny packets should be fine. See the site below for the details.
