Shampoo

The bastards are taking away my damn shampoo and I’m furious!

negging works for shampoos

My baldness sufficiently prevents me from using them.

Yes, but I think the (true) point was that male-marketed products are always either:

• Arctic freshness 0°K we'll make you feel like you're naked on an iceberg in the middle of the North Pole

Or:

• Now you smell like your grandfather! Some wood, musk, and cedar cones

Why is it so and what does it tell of our society and weird expectations? A great deal of men do NOT appreciate this approach, and sure turn to the products marketed for women.

We should either break that insanely entrenched stereotype about "masculine" scents, or better just ditch product gendering altogether.

Yay for men smelling like vanilla and strawberry yoghurt!

Easy, it’s the more expensive ones.

what you perceive as

Sometimes it says straight on the box "women's shampoo" lol

I mean, I do, despite being bald. But its still quite jarring how much worse products for men smell.

I mean that is great and obvious and all but it is completely the case that they are women's products. They are on all the boxes, ads and testimonials. In the women's aisle.

Anything less than 10 years didn't have enough time to ripen.

Seriously. My goals today are to change my oil and grill some chicken.

That doesn't work here. Natural soap, saponified fats, causes soap scum in hard water. If it puts a mineral coating on your tub, it will do the same to your hair.

Yeah I just use bar soap and I've got fairly long hair. Works well enough as long as you're not too aggressive with it.

reminds me of locker room stank

I wonder why

IMO people should just use medical (smelless) deodorant, as smell is subjective, so there is a smaller chance to annoy someone.

I don't use deodorant with aluminum and parabens. Today I prefer to use a solid stick deodarant made from magnesium and other components

It had better at least be blue.

Lol, jokes on us they're all blue, cobalt or not

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

It's not even partially radioactive

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.

Let's not forget Barb Wire and New Yacht.

Thanks, have edited. Somebody did tell me that ages ago, but I'd forgotten!

In a pinch, it can also clean windows.

The swiss army knife of liquids.

Reviews, I did a couples massage with my wife. It was my first time. I would highly recommend.

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.

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

Cat shampoo? Oh the one with blood marks all over it. I see.

It’s Ranma 1/2 (and for anyone who didn’t get the joke, the character’s name is literally “Shampoo”)

Maybe a full serving of fruits and veggies, but there's no protein in there, at least not what we mean when we talk about protein in nutrition. Probably not many carbs either. I would also suspect that the rest of the product is undigestable, if not straight up toxic

Bicarb means being attracted to both bagels and baguettes

I'm guessing, they mean baking soda: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate

English is prestige! I don't think that's a controversial statement at all!

American Psycho?

I wash my face with my shampoo and then bar said the rest of my body

A week is actually way too fast, it took mine like 4 months to stop greasing up lol

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.

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.

There's lipid balancing ones. Ones with Urea might be good too.

‘zero products’

cough ……racism…. cough

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.

I just checked my shampoo bottle:

Face, hair, and body. So basically what it's saying is that it's soap.

Body, hair, car

Herbicide
