I was watching something on the internet and then somewhere in the conversation the two people in this video brought up the subject of not using shampoo and still have clean hair.
That got my interested mainly because I don’t like all the stuff they put in shampoo. So after this video got my interested I did some searching around and found that there are more people that stoped using shampoo and still have clean hair.
This made me want to try this so on June 25 I washed my hair for the last time with shampoo. Let me tell you before I started this experiment I had a fair amount of dandruff and used special shampoo for that.
I read before that after a couple of days you can get the feeling of itching so I was prepared.
So now after stoping shampoo I just washed my hair with water while under the shower. After like 10 days my head became a little bit itchy but not to annoying but after a day of two that was completely gone.
And till now (I write this on August 4) I did not use any shampoo any more. My hair looks great and seem to look good for longer times without water. And one other thing that is pretty interesting my dandruff is gone.
My head seem to be in better shape and even feels nicer. My hair feels nice and not greasy at all.
This experiment really worked out for me and this way I save my head and skin by no longer dumping chemicals on my head and eventually in our environment.
I know this is not for everyone but I would recommend you to give it a try but if you do go for it for a month so that you give your head and hair the time to adjust.

ARE YOU SERIOUS? I’ve never heard of this. I would love a world with no shampoo/conditioner.
We do use eco-friendly products but none would be the best option.
Do you know any females who’ve done this successfully?

I know one that did (don’t know if she still does)
but if you google it you will find lots of people who tried.
I know several men who stopped using shampoo with great result.
But the story that got me to stop using shampoo was of a british journalist who did it for a while ( i think it was a year ) and she was a woman with long hair.
I am shampoo less for 1.5 years and dandruff is gone
and i save on shampoo.
