no poo

[Anonymous No.7397105]

ive been doing no poo for about a year and a half, maybe a little bit longer

i figured, why not, the broscience makes sense, the worst thing that'll happen is i'll get #tricked and ill have oily hair. but then i'll just revert back to using shampoo again

it was only the first week that my hair was more oily the usualy, but even then, not by a large margin -- ~+15% more oily, but only noticable by me when id touch my hair.

after then, it "stabilized" and did its own thing

after about a month, my hair felt amazing. amazing to touch, eassssssssssssyyyyy to style, and most importantly looked amazing

it's seriously the perfect balance right now. not oily, not dry. even after a long day of excersize, i dont feel the need to use shampoo

every 2-3 weeks or so, i'll use a tea tree conditioner

so many people comment on my hair. i just came back from the barber and he told me the same thing
dudes like 90 years old, has his nys barbers license since 1947 (holy shit)

anyway so that's my personal testimonial. no poo works very very well for me. id say i have normal hair. it might not work for people who have oily or dry hair, but idk, i cant comment on that because...that aint my hair!

I've been on
>NO SHAMPOO
>NO CONDITIONER
>NO HIPPIE BULLSHIT
>COLD WATER ONLY
>FINAL DESTINATION
and it's worked pretty well. Anyone use styling shit in their hair as well? It's easier to style than the shampooing days but it still misbehaves.

yeah im do all those and i use american crew fiber
comes out just fine because it's water based

[Anonymous No.7397264]

I've no-poo for about 3 months now. Before I tried it a few times in a short duration of 1 - 3 weeks but chicken out when people started saying it wouldn't do shit. That's a lie, I've experienced no dandruff or anything. My hair is much more detailed and much more glossy, compare to shampooing which make it completely straightened without any hope of training it back, and gets frizzy and dry. I've been complemented multiple times since then, most of the complements are about how my hair looks much more thicker. It does get pretty oily in the first two weeks but it does stabilize. I also don't use any products or anything, just deeply wash my hair with cold water.

Alright, cool. Now I can put my head at an angle below 5 degrees without my hair falling to the side. I'm sick of looking like I came out of a 90's time machine after I tie my shoes.

[Anonymous No.7397302]

>>7397277

[Anonymous No.7397329]

>>7397302
its some gel that the barber used (just got back about 45min ago). i do not know the name

i typically use imperial pomade and it looks like like that

[Anonymous No.7397327]

>>7397166
because it doesn't use shampoo, and shampoo = crap

do you get it now

[Anonymous No.7397361]

I'm somewhere in the awkward phase between HY and manbun. So i control my hair with Murray's. How to clean your hair if you do no poo in my example?

[Anonymous No.7398252]

wait if you dont use shampoo dont you use baking soda and vinegar or whatever the fuck?

[Anonymous No.7398270]

>>7398252
no why would i want my hair to smell like vinegar?
i take warm showers and end with a minute of cold water
if anything ill throw in a drop of body wash but thats it

thats it

[Anonymous No.7398286]

post a picture of your hair in its natural state without any product

you wont

[Anonymous No.7398292]

>>7398270
so you use absolutely nothing on your head?
ever?
my hair is greasy after a single day that I can't imagine doing this
I'm generally oily though so I guess its just how it is

[Anonymous No.7398345]

>>7398286
if you look at the pic i posted, theres only product on the "top". the sides is sans product

but it look the same just with a little less "shine," i guess

>>7398292
idk about greasy hair, maybe someone who's tried it, can offer advice.
i'd assume it would be a bad idea unless you are willing to give yourself time to see if your scalp/hair will go from "greasy" to normal after years of shampoo. but i cannot confirm that at all, thats all broscience

[Anonymous No.7398356]

>>7398345
i told you you wouldnt

[Anonymous No.7398361]

[Anonymous No.7398906]

I've been doing no poo for months, and about once a week I use baking soda and vinegar. Some of you only use cold water?

[Anonymous No.7398920]

my hair's quality greatly improves but i get slight dandruff and it smells like goddamn shit after a while, can i do anything for this?

[Anonymous No.7398926]

no poo for 4 months, no product, no dandruff, no greasiness, just hair.

[Anonymous No.7398939]

Does it smell?

My hair starts smelling like shit a week in but I don't have the balls to keep it going without shampoo.

>Should I use like, soap?

[Anonymous No.7398998]

Try this for a while, and move towards only using cold water if you think you should

[Anonymous No.7399026]

>>7398844
Are you hot-water washing?

[Anonymous No.7399038]

>>7398939
You are what you eat you piece of shit.

Eat good food and you won't stink, like the entirety of the indian subcontinent - fucking gross.

Also, if you're some underagedb& then puberty and hormones will play around with your stank, that or you may have a hormonal imbalance.

[Anonymous No.7399045]

what does hot-water washing do to your hair head? (I only ever hot water wash, lol)

I have high testosterone, not sure if that has to do with anything. Also, my diet is decent, but I've been trying improve that too.

Still, couldn't go without shampoo. I also wear beanies a lot.

[Anonymous No.7399070]

>>7399045
That is perhaps then your mistake.
Dries out your scalp, makes it itch and shit - washes away the oils that are supposed to be there for no-poo to work.
Use cold water from now on.
Go do it now faggot.

>I have high testosterone, not sure if that has to do with anything.
It may very well have something to do with it.

>Also, my diet is decent
More fruit, more veg, less dairy. No junky, oily shit.

[Anonymous No.7399105]

Also, no poo won't work if you just let your hair sit, "stagnant". You need to brush or comb it, letting the oils clean the hair.

The magic of no poo is that the hair becomes self cleaning. It may stink for the first 2 months, but after that it's a nice, human smell unless you eat shit all the time and have a hormonal/chemical imbalance).

[Anonymous No.7399166]

nopoo 15 months, it was long (7 inches) up until may of this year. I have glorious smells.

Dear /fa/ diary,
I've been doing no poo for 2 months now and my hair has definitely improved a bit. Nothing dramatic like some of you, but my hair isn't super dry anymore.

ALSO
Not one, but 2 girls actually smelled my hair and said it smelled good. I didn't even know they were sniffing, bitches just crept up on me.
