is shampoo a scam? I been showering with shampoo my whole life, i tried without, i use soap bar for my hair and it actually came out looking better, and after a long day it got less oily than usually when i wash it with shampoo
shashanth [#3]99 percent around u are scam they are just manipulating ur mind
i know, check my other threads
depends on your hair type. try finding shampoos with gentle surfactants like coco-glucoside or isethionates, and try switching up how often you wash your hair. very curly hair types shouldn't get washed very often, for me, I have pretty thin hair so I wash every other day. but ofc it's all personal preference, find what works for you and stick with it
Shampoo is not a standalone product.
Shampoo is chemically a detergent which means it will strip all oil from your hair.
This however can make your hair bad. Therefore you need to use a moisturizer (not your cream moisturizer, look for conditioners) or apply just a couple of drops of oil to your hair.
Some people who really care about their hair also use a 3rd product and I forgot the name. Anyways for normal use cases, these 2 items will be more than enough.
BTW it may appear that your hair is softer after using soap, but it's more of an illusion. It's just because soap thins out the hair and ultimately they become softer but it also makes your hair really weak. Still better to use Shampoo once twice a week rather than use soap.
