Don't Shampoo Too Often🙅 💆

[zombiebabe]

Whatever you might be seeing stuffs written on shampoo bottles on the shelves on stores....just know that some of them might be lies!

yes i said bullsh*t🤦‍

Here's why....

1. Too many Chemicals☠️⚗️

Lemme put it clear ; i know all shampoos contain chemicals but some cause more harm than others and some might cause harm in the long run(risk of cancer,allergy, etc...). I personally had a really bad experience in the past when i used some shampoo...i ended up having really irritated scalp, really dry hair and some slight back acne(because i have long hair)..as soon as i stopped using this quite popular brand the irritation calmed down.

That gif describes well what i went through while using that shampoo^

2.They dry out hair🌵

Each time we shampoo our hair its like we're stripping away the natural oils produced by our scalp...like each shampoo is like using detergent on our head.As a result it dries out hair like crazyy! So the best thing is: DO NOT SHAMPOO TOO OFTEN!

3.Switch to more natural alternatives like🌿:

Castille soap is a great one (as long as you know the perfect mixture for your hair)

Natural herbs (again the mixtures vary on hair types)

...or simply shampoo bars

The less we use shampoo's the better it will be...

GAGers..did you had any bad reaction to shampoos before?

I don't know about chemicals and irritation, but shampoo does indeed dry my hair out - which doesn't help since my hair is already naturally really dry. Every shampoo I have ever used dries my hair out - even if it claims it's "moisturizing" or "hydrating" or "repairing".

So... I started only washing my hair every 2 or 3 days (2 if I'm working out daily, 3 if I'm not). I put coconut oil in my hair on the days that I wash it to fight the dryness, but it's still a bit of an issue. My hair always looks and feels best 24 hours after washing it.

same here
i make oil mask on my hair prior to shampoo

[ShortCircuit]

Ah I see. Maybe I should give that a shot.

[zombiebabe]

yup :)

I shampoo my hair every morning, I think it is also becuase I've been washing my hair everyday that if I skip a day... it gets extremely oily. :(

[zombiebabe]

:/ oh try and wash it less often like maybe each 2 days and use a shampoo for oily hair... cause that's too much shampoo... but that's just my opinion

[Telekinetic-Potato]

A few girls have told me in the past that they don't wash their hair all the time because it can be harmful so I figured they probably know way more about it than I do, lol.

Now I pretty much do it based on if my hair is oily or not and I pretty much know how to make sure it's always in a good spot between oily and dry because too much of either is bad right? haha

[zombiebabe]

makes sense

[godfatherfan]

everyone is different.
I don't even have much hair left. But I shampoo at least 1x a day. If I don't, then not only do I feel gross and oily, but I get dandruff. I don't know how anyone can go more then a day without shampoo'ing.

[zombiebabe]

as you said everyone is different

Lool the dog at the end.

Until now i had no problem, but i also think about what you said, related to cancer, beware peple, some, if not most, are poison to you.

When you buy cheap... you might get the worse ones.

[zombiebabe]

true i agree but sometimes popular stuffs might be harmful too

[OrangeBoy]

I remember some shampooes getting prosecuted and some products being erased from the market because health issues.

[OrangeBoy]

Yeah famous ones.

[zombiebabe]

these things happen

[LoloWaye]

I only have to wash my hair every other week!

[zombiebabe]

yayyy
