How many of you have cats that look like they should be in a hair commercial?
Edit: ITT, Send me cat pics
I love your cats 😭
I’ll pet them for you :)
You don’t need shampoo or conditioner except sometimes medicinally!
If you do not apply some sort of (proven) cleaning agent to your hair on a reasonably frequent basis, i dont care how in touch with nature and your primal self you are, you stink. If you dont want to deal with the maintenance cut it off, rocking the wrecking ball aesthetic is pretty great actually.
The no-poo (no shampoo) movement is very real and definitely works for many people (dependant on hair type and oil secretions). Basically, once you stop washing away your natural oils daily, the production normalizes and then a regular rinse with water and occasionally something like diluted soap, lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.
I’ve met them, I was one, I know them. You wouldn’t know unless they told you.
The only people saying you should use shampoo daily are the shampoo makers. Most people can get away with once a week.

By occasionally, they mean once a month at most.
Hair only stinks if you get crap in it.
Okay, but it’s important for everyone elseto know that they aren’t going years without using a cleaning agent like wild animals.
You ever smell an animal’s fur? It’s not great.
My cats smell just fine. The dog on the other hand…
True, but you aren’t a cat. You’re an ape.
How do you think an ape smells?
If you are brushing them often, feeding them good food, and not letting your dog roll in everything, they smell a lot better.
That being said, animals in general do have stronger smelling oils than humans - often for some evolutionarily advantageous reasons.
On the other hand, dogs don’t sweat.
