Fuck, we’re old… 😞
I know I know that show, but I can’t remember what it is…
It’s Ranma 1/2 (and for anyone who didn’t get the joke, the character’s name is literally “Shampoo”)
I stopped using shampoo. My hair and skin have never been better. Shampoo takes away the skin oils, so the skin needs to compensate by producing more skins oils, making your hair greasy. Stop using shampoo makes it worse for a week, then it gets better and the hair stops being greasy. Shampoo is just an unnecessary addiction.
True. My hair has never been better.
Do you then ONLY wash the with water or do you wash them with something special from time to time? I use a little hair soap and apple vinegar maybe once a week, as they still tend to get a little “heavy” after days with just rinsing them with water.
Only with water (it stabalises after a while). I do use shampoo after swimming in open water or a swimming pool, or after it gets dirty by anything else. Which is almost never.
All you people must smell like ass in rl if you workout every day and not wash your hair ever though. Head sweat is a thing.
I’ve tried stop using shampoo but my scalp feels super itchy after about a week. Is there an alternative to shampoo that don’t remove skin oil or removes less?
Edit: typo
If you want to get into soapmaking, you can regulate the lye to fat ratio.
I think the word is superfatted soap. You could search for that. Or soaps made from different fats (f.ex. olive oil or lanolin). Lanolin is apparently the best oil for our skin, but it’s expensive.
I use conditioner - it reapplies some oils to your hair and scalp.
There’s lipid balancing ones. Ones with Urea might be good too.
I’m not putting piss in my hair.
For what purpose? Shampoo is for ungreasing hair. A great alternative is water. Any soap is for bonding with fats. You could start washing your hair with shampoo less often, like once every month or so. But imo it’s fine with not washing with shampoo at all. Just water. I have to say, I do not have a job where my hair gets dirty. I wouldn’t recommend stop using shampoo when you work in a coal mine or as a firefighter for example. Also, I do wash it with shampoo after I swam in open water or a swimming pool for example. Washing away chlorine and bacteria.
Oh yeah, any kind of dusty or gritty job shampoo is a requirement. Having natural hair oils is like inviting trouble in those situations. I tried to go the route of just water and my pillow slips noticeably suffered.
My pillow suffers far less from bodily fluids since I stopped using shampoo.
I’ve been using natron (backing powder) for a couple of years now twice a week. I had no need for shampoo ever since. You just mix one tablespoon natron with water in a cup and are good to go. To even out the ph of the hair use a teespoon of cider vinegar mixed with water in a one of those spray cans used to water flowers. Works well for children as well, as none of this burns your eyes. As a side effect I stopped getting red eyes from using shampoo.
Pro tip: shampoo is supposed to go in your hair, not your eyes.
A week is actually way too fast, it took mine like 4 months to stop greasing up lol
This works if you use zero products. No gels, no mousses, no hairspray.
‘zero products’
cough ……racism…. cough
“Essence of Whispered Dreams.”
That actually sounds crazy cool, I would definitely buy that for my wife if it was available. Also the color is absolutely perfect.I went to get a massage for the first time. You can have a scent during your massage, so I was like why not? So they listed a huge list of smells and flavors. And one of the scents they had was cedar. Of course I picked that one. The masseuse was immediately like “I would say like 80% of all of the guys that come in here pick cedar.” No regrets, it smelled great. Reminded me of woodworking.
Sounds nice (the massage, not necessarily that particular scent). I’ve never gotten a massage before but I’ve been thinking about getting a couples massage with my wife. There’s so many massage places though. How do I choose one?
Reviews, I did a couples massage with my wife. It was my first time. I would highly recommend.
Call around, ask for prices and availability. The good ones are usually booked up, though often not terribly expensive.
Also ask if they take insurance; most of the shady rub and tug places do not, but the legit ones sure do
chose the one nearest to you or the most convenient to get to (maybe a place that’s along your daily commute). If you like it, kepp going there. If the result is unsatisfactory, chose another one next time.
I don’t think you’ve seen the massage parlors near me

I am not sure how you got that from my comment.
Painfully accurate.
It’d be more accurate if it was pointed out that they’re identical outside some food coloring and perfume
And hers is $20/oz and his is 0.20/gallon

Let’s not forget Barb Wire and New Yacht.
Thanks, have edited. Somebody did tell me that ages ago, but I’d forgotten!

Fingers crossed this actually renders correctly 🤞
They forgot to add a list of ingredients that makes it sound like it is a fruit salad.
I’m convinced my wife’s shampoo could be considered a full meal of you drink it.
Umm the incel right can’t meme? Or a commentary on CPG industry?
Shimpoo also doubles as all purpose lubricant, engine oil, degreaser, pipe declogger, raticide, barbecue sauce, hair pomade, and SPF 50+ sunscreen.
Does nobody use 17 in 1 hair detergent, body wash, conditioner, deoderant, moisturizer, hand soap, shaving cream, beard oil, lip balm, callous remover, hand sanitizer, bubble bath solution, epsom salt, dandruff treatment, cologne, hair gel, and junk defunker anymore?
Out here in hard water country we just call that “Dove”
Seriously if you’re looking for a soap that just plain works in ANY water and doesn’t leave your skin feeling like it shrank a size, a good old bar of Dove is the answer.
Don’t forget leather conditioner, rust remover, engine degreaser, paint thinner, weed killer, barbecue charcoal starter, epoxy cure accelerator!
In a pinch, it can also clean windows.
Does it work on Linux? If so I think if could take off on Lemmy
Lol no serious Linux user bathes
Yes, but it’s a snap.
Only if it has at least 93 octane rating and no less than 40% alcohol content.
Jimmy: “Mane n’ Tail.” Is this horse shampoo?
Chazz: Yes, it is.
Jimmy: Do you use this stuff on your hair?
Chazz: Uh-huh.
Jimmy: “For a lustrous coat.” Does this actually work?
Chazz: You bet your ass it does. It makes my hair shine like Orion’s belt…

I used cat shampoo on more than one occasion simply because the human shampoo was out of reach.
Cat shampoo? Oh the one with blood marks all over it. I see.
10-in-one from hair to car
The swiss army knife of liquids.
Wait till I tell you about the $1000s I spend on skin care…yep I said it
I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine. In the morning if my face is a little puffy I’ll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.
American Psycho?
I wash my face with my shampoo and then bar said the rest of my body
48% less hog fat? Shrinkflation strikes again.
They make it as if it’s a good thing they used less of that precious hog press juice
Not my shimpoo :(
The bastards are taking away my damn shampoo and I’m furious!
Seriously. Where can I get that shampoo that just pure hog fat?
I want gunpowder or sawdust scents.
I’m using one that’s labeled as “Cobalt”. Smdh doesn’t smell anything like actual cobalt, what a ripoff
It had better at least be blue.
Lol, jokes on us they’re all blue, cobalt or not
It’s not even partially radioactive
Does cobalt have some particular smell?
I don’t know but I think a deodorant with cobalt doesn’t seem like a “healthy” thing to put under the armpits lol
I was just joking, I don’t know what cobalt smells like. Unfortunately I don’t think it actually includes any cobalt. That would’ve been metal as fuck
That would’ve been metal as fuck

I use womens deodorant, not fruity ones but “fresh” ones i guess. Can’t stand mens deodorant, reminds me of locker room stank.
IMO people should just use medical (smelless) deodorant, as smell is subjective, so there is a smaller chance to annoy someone.
But what if smelling like earl grey makes me happy?
reminds me of locker room stank
I wonder why
If it were possible to have a deodorant that itself had no odor at all, that’s what I would choose.
“Unscented” still has a very clear scent.
I too prefer unscented, and usually the women’s version. Current one I usually use is the thin Tom’s of Maine unscented, which I think is the one for women. The thick blue body has the powdery deodorant while the thin white body has the smooth solid.
