Funny, I use shampoo over my whole body because the equivalent soap doesn’t have the menthol in it that I use to wake me the heck up every morning. That tingly feeling of freshness I get is phenomenal.
I use shampoo maybe once per month, usually only when necessary to remove products such as bleach/dye. Just rinsing it with water is usually enough, but when my hair starts feeling more greasy (maybe once per week), I just use conditioner to help loosen up the dirt. If you’re curious, look up “cowashing” and “no poo” for more information.
Ohh yeah. I’m currently washing my hair once a week on average, cause it gets greasy, but I forgot about conditioner helping that. I hate the few days after shampooing- my hair is so dry and smooth that it won’t stay in a ponytail for very long. Very frustrating.
I’ve got super straight, fine hair (1A), and it sounds like you might, too. If you’re having trouble keeping your hair in a ponytail, can I ask if you’re brushing it thoroughly? Just because mine holds much better if I finger comb it and use natural bristle brush to smooth it where necessary. That only works for me after shampooing when it’s shorter than my shoulders/I use conditioner or a similar product, though.
I’ve tried cowashing before! I have a lot of hair, but thin individual strands, and it kinda made it too hydrated (idk how else to explain) so I lost my waves.
Do you never use shampoo? I personally only even wet my hair once or twice a week, then wash with shampoo though.
Bar soap top to bottom. Big Shampoo has played you all for fools
