Shampoo

[DuplicateValue]

Head & Shoulders is apparently very bad for your scalp. Just lettin' you know.

I use... whatever happens to be in the shower at the time.
Usual Herbal Essences I guess.

None. I don't need it.

Do you have short hair?

Sort of. Medium length. I simply stopped using it and didn't notice a difference. Nobody's ever told me my hair is greasy or disgusting in any way, and my girlfriend has actually complimented it. I'm glad to save money in that area, and I'm testing out life without shaving cream to see if I can go without that as well. So far, I've shaved successfully a few times without tearing my face apart.

Thats till kinda gross, i used to not use shampoo when i had short hair

I have never heard this, would you know why it is bad for the scalp.

What is this "shampoo" you type of? I use tea tree because I have this skin condition that is a lot like dandruff. I believe they called it cradle cap.

Franck Provost Hair Repair which smell like strawberry and Schwarzkopf Gliss, it smells like Bailey's

I don't use shampoo. I wash my hair using the natural cleaning powers of goat urine.

I was told that it dries out your scalp or something.

It mightn't be true though, it's just something someone told me.

I use Schauma - Oil Intense, it's recommended for longer hair cause it prevents hair breakage and split-ends. And it works perfect for me.

 

[PureChaos]

Uh, why is it gross? Just because someone doesn't use shampoo it doesn't necessarily mean that they quit washing their hair.

Regular soap kills bacteria and dissolves grease and dirt just as well as head and shoulders or herbal essences does.

The only difference (aside from the overpriced "brands" they put on some shampoo bottles) is that shampoo contain all these extra chemical ingredients that is supposedly good for keeping the hair full, or flowing, or making it look more "shiny" than regular soap does.

But in terms of keeping the stuff clean and "not gross", soap works just as well as any shampoo brand does. Heck you could even clean your hair with strong vodka or whisky as long as you rub it in thoroughly and make sure you wash it all out completely afterwards.

Vosene. It's got coal tar in it.

Head & Shoulders and other so-called "anti-dandruff" shampoos just make things worse. But Vosene is brilliant.

 

[GodofDisaster]

I usually just use head and shoulders.

That or Timotei.

(No I'm not talking about the Lucky star joke, it is a real shampoo.)

I have never heard this, would you know why it is bad for the scalp.

The only reason I can work out is that it probably contains sodium lauryl sulphate, which can irritate the skin in some cases. As I said in my post a few minutes ago, I find H&S and similar so-called "anti-dandruff" shampoos make things worse. I use a coal tar shampoo, Vosene.

Humans have only been using shampoo since the 1970s, when it began to be aggressively marketed in TV ad campaigns. Before that, it was not recommended to wash hair more than twice a month, and with ordinary soap. Frequent shampoo use causes the scalp to produce grease much more rapidly than it otherwise would, reinforcing the notion that hair needs to be washed frequently to remove grease.

Haha I never thought about it really. I just use whatever is in the shower at the time.

Lorel colour protect, both the shampoo and the conditioner (I have bleach blonde hair and it needs to be conditioned everyday).

Head and Shoulders. Your average shampoo. And yet, I'm told by many I have some of the best hair they've seen.
