I am on week one: showering with no soap at all except for my butt crack and no shampoo/conditioner. I still use deodorant.
So far, results are awesome. I'm not smelling any BO at all and in fact, I'm noticing it's taking me LONGER to stink even after a long sweaty walk. Makes no sense but it's awesome.
Since I naturally oily skin because I'm a DARKIE this will be interesting, but I'm seeing good results so far. If I like what happens past month three, I may stick with this.
-
This is pretty gross
-
I tried this before to bad results.
I have very thin hair so not shampooing it daily resulted in the hair sticking out all over and not being able to comb it into place. I think having healthy, shiny hair only works if it is thick. If it is thin (thin, not thinning), then you're SOL.
My dreams of looking like this handsome motherfucker have been dashed :'(

Remind me to avoid Houston this summer.
-
I haven't used shampoo in almost two years. Use to get dandruff pretty bad...nothing now.
Not using soap sounds fucking :yuck though.
-
lol, no
-
No soap sounds gross. Sorry.
-
what the fuck kind of stupid plan is this
have you been hanging around hipsters himu
-
Fuck off!
-
I never use soap, ever. I am not smelly or unclean. I have come to the conclusion that people who think it's necessary are delusional. I use shampoo every day though.
-
I don't see how not using shampoo = not gross
not using soap = gross
The two principles are similar.
-
Not washing your hair sounds gross- how do you avoid breaking out? How do you avoid SMELL of HAIR OILZ. I had a western civ prof explain how the french got away without bathing because eventually you get enough grime where your develop this sorta shell of grime that is kind of neutral in the smell department- still gross

Who said you don't wash your hair? You wash your with straight water instead of shampoo.
Also, who said anything about not bathing?
-
I'd like to know what series of events led to this stupid idea. smh himu
-
yeah but water doesnt get oil out- it just sits in there- clogging up pores
-
You do realize that most hair stylists say you should probably cut down on shampoo. Using shampoo daily damages hair, and it's not really necessary.
I'd like to know what series of events led to this stupid idea. smh himu
About a year ago, I heard about no shampoo method. I tried it for awhile. I was curious because my hair was thinning. Now my hair is much thicker. I use shampoo, but only sparingly. I used it for the first time in about 3 months last week.
From there, I heard about no soap and figured why not, I'll try it.
-
Im pretty sure if you went to most hair stylists with your current plans for bathing they'd stop talking to you.

Himu is absolutely right, but there is a lengthy adjustment period where you're going to be disgusting while your body normalizes.

In corporate America, you probably can't get away with that adjustment period.
He is kind of right, I never really wash my face and I had maybe 3-4 pimples my whole life.

It takes about a week for the body to stop producing extra oil and then it normalizes. For hair, sometimes two weeks.

dont wash your face? god damnit people

the main thing that started this is that I notice whenever I switch soaps, I get a zit breakout. It drives me crazy. I wonder how my skin reacts to no soap.
-
dont wash your face? god damnit people
Under my dermatologist's orders. Has worked out great and I never looked back. When I was 11 or so I had a dermatitis on my face. He recommended that I just rinse my face vs. washing it to see if it worked. The dermatitis went away and I never broke out.
-
Ive been doing this for a few months now. I only use soap for hand washing and deodorant and uh .... toothpaste?. I'm not gonna say the results are amazing but you do realise just how unnecessary most personal hygiene products are compared to hot water and a rough sponge. Skin's a little better. That rough stuff underneath my arm isn't as bad as it was before. Basically, washing hair is simply a matter of using a brush/comb while rinsing the hair out under hot water.
edit: Hey MAF, you do realise we evolved from animals that probably had natural processes to maintain healthy looking skin without the need to invent chemicals, right?
-
I might try the no shampoo things for a bit, just because I have a case of backne that won't go away. Nothing terrible, just several clusters here and there.
No soap though? fuck dat sheet
-
I haven't used shampoo in over three years, but I do have to use soap if I put any sort of product in it. I'm not sure there's any way of getting around it.
I'm not in a position to get away with the no-soap adjustment period, and I like the smell of my body wash.
-
Lock this thread from orbit, ban everyone, leper anyone that survives.
-
body wash :heart
I don't know though...since I keep my hair decently long at most times, would cutting shampoo out make it look...gross? eh.
-
No shampoo may make your hair more shiny, BrandNew. The rest is up to your body, I say give it a shot for about a month.
-
all i know is i'm a greasy mediterranean-descended motherfucker whos oil layer regenerates every 10 hours and gets pretty stinky when i skip a regularly-scheduled hygiene session. this would NEVER work for me.
-
I like to think the difference between us and the animal kingdom is our ability to not smell like fuckin hobos
-
In my case the adjustment period didnt involve smelling bad or whatever. If you exfoliate your skin thoroughly with hot water you always wash the stink off, trust me. If anything I'm more mindful of my cleaning now then when I used soap. The adjustment period is feeling super oily all the time. Its that sticky feel on your skin and that globby hair feeling and just general scumminess for the first two weeks. But it sorts itself out in the end.
edit: I'm forgetting to mention that this works best if you don't eat copious amounts of shit. Diet also plays a major factor in skin/hair quality and how you smell.
-
Not necessarily, Positive. If you're oily like me, your body is probably making excess oil in response to the soap. If you quit the soap, maybe your oil levels will go back to normal. May not be entirely true, but that's the general idea.
-

No one said don't use deodorant.
-

True but you should probably use a mild shampoo instead of no shampoo. It's hard to get rid of oil without soap. Greasy hair or skin is pretty disgusting in the summer.
-
i only shampoo every 3-4 days btw. doing it every day is disgusting for real
-
one time i broke my arm right at the start of summer. by the time they took the cast off my whole arm smelled like peanut butter and jelly and ass
-

god damn have you ever smelled someone that tried to use deoderant in place of a shower? I have- and it was gross.
-
I haven't used deodorant since college. Even when I workout, I just put on some cologne.
-
unscented works for me- im not big on smelling any one way in particular since my sense of smell is a bit acute. Deoderant is preventative though- its not a replacement for showers.

This thread is fucking disgusting, you don't see this kind of shit even in third world countries.

I did the no-shampoo thing in college, when I had super-long heavy metal hair. It worked ok, but getting to that point was misery. I should give it another shot because my hair is (and always will be) super-short now

If my hair is short enough I can do no shampoo for a few days. But then my scalp becomes greasy and it's just as disgusting.
-
Yeah, but if you power through that (which I'm going to tell you right now is impossible if you live with two Japanese females) the greasiness does indeed disappear.
oh alright then, here is me with long hair for the lulz. I was 20, back in the days before digital cameras, so my graduation celebrations might even be the only surviving pics....

This reminds me of all the sweaty foreigners I encountered in Asia-land who stopped using deodorant because they "were eating just like the locals," and that somehow changed their physiology.
They claimed that they didn't perspire/smell/whatever anymore.
They were wrong.
I tried the no shampoo thing once, and after four days I couldn't handle it anymore. Felt like I was Lou Dunbar and could pull all kinds of useful shit out of it.
-
Are you comparing not using deodorant to not using soap when you shower? Do you realize how dumb that sounds?
-
Dude, you aren't washing yourself. I'm not sure you're qualified to hurl names here breh
-
I think we might actually have to replace Himumu with PD as our affirmative action Icon, can't have the joint smelling like sour ass.
-
This is different though, because he doesn't notice any B.O.
-
They claimed that they didn't perspire/smell/whatever anymore.
They were wrong.
That much is true. The people who try these experiments/lifestyles almost always claim they don't smell when they're not the judge of it. It's possible not to smell, sure. But sometimes the person is just saturated in their own rank.
I tried the no shampoo thing a while back. Did seem to help but those first few days I didn't want to touch my hair or rest my head on anything.
-
I'm pretty good at noticing my own BO, I'm real sensitive to it. That's not to say I don't eventually stink like usual by the end of the day. But after a shower? I certainly don't have BO because I wash that all off.
Your point is that is that if you don't use soap, you'll have BO! When in reality, soap smell wears off - real quick, real fast. Most of the smell you put on occurs after a shower: deodorant, cologne. Your claim is that you know people who claim they didn't smell after using deodorant? Of course they're full of shit. Deodorant masks musk. But soap? You think people will smell because they aren't using soap in the shower? On what basis? How? How is there a difference between using hot water and a washcloth/sponge and a washcloth/sponge with soap? If you're scrubbing, and using water, you're still getting dirt and excess off of your body.
So your point about people smelling is a total random one and irrelevant one, especially when someone who is not using soap DOES use deodorant.
-
I sweat like a motherfucker plus I had some sort of acne problems (gone only after blowing so much money on accutane and other shit) so I am not risking it. I need my body clean, free of bacteria.
-
I've stopped using soap about a year ago, because my skin was always itchting after my daily shower, I now only use it for the genitals and under the arms. No problems with smell or oily skin at all.
I'd like to to the same with shampoo, only problem is that my hair gets oily extremly fast and my hair would look like that of a hobo after two days, so a two week period to get past that is way too much for me. Maybe I should start to use only water every second day.
-
I'm thinking the best way to do this would be to just shave your head first and never resume shampooing. Might give it a shot this summer. Hair and Tokyo summers are fundamentally incompatible anyway
-
Well, I can only speak for myself, but I don't buy that soap wears off quickly. I've had exes compliment my scent long after a shower and even be able to guess the brand of soap I use. Full disclosure: I am a lobbyist for the soap industry.
As for the inability of people to self-diagnose their body odor, this reminds me of how your own farts are more bearable than others. Your fart wasn't that bad, why are these assholes overreacting?
-
While it's true that it's more difficult to smell yourself, it is not a disqualifier that you actually don't smell bad. Ask someone else if you don't trust yourself, better than just knocking the idea.

I sometimes go a day or two without washing my hair. It actually does wonders for my short, faux-hawk type cut. I start to feel gross after too long and then it's a ticket down to shampoo city.

I was told I stunk, for using deodorant, by people who reeked of B.O. :lol :yuck
-
I really don't get how someone can walk around smelling like that. Whenever it's finals or mid term time, the uni library smells horrible due to many Indians who don't wear deodorant. If you can shower and not have to use deodorant more power to you. But if you can't, for the love of god start using it asap
-
I haven't used shampoo for about 2 years, its fine for me, because I shower regularly so don't feel the need to molest my follicles with chemical horrors.
-
My hair got extremely dry in the last year, so I've been experimenting with shampoos and trying to determine how many times a week to use it. I used to do it every night, but my hair just got dryer. Now I do it around 3 times a week or so and the problem hasn't gone away smh. Guess I'll go down to two
-
Real talk: I never wash my face with soap.
I need to wash my hair every second day though cause it gets greasy, thats the trouble with having amazing hair that girls are jelly off.
-
Didn't shampoo yesterday and I'm pretty sure my hair smells today.
-
When I first got into Paleo last year I read up on people who skipped shampoo and soap and were trying to convince others to do the same.
I lasted about 3 days in August NYC weather. It was fucking disgusting. By the end, I was getting on a packed train full of other innocent people and I smelled like the crustiest of crust punks.

I brush my teeth twice every day. Have only ever had one cavity - my biggest shame - in my life.

I've had two and a root canal. it was the worst. now I try and brush three times a day
fuck flossing though
also I've gone three days without shampoo and my hair feels luxurious
-
Not flossing is probably why you got those cavities.

Don't wash your hair every day. Because of the drier texture of African-American hair, it needs to retain its oils. Shampoo your hair once every three to seven days.

Regular flossing does suck. I probably wouldn't floss if I didn't have floss picks.
-
Flossing before floss picks was not a thing for me. Flossing with regular floss? I never "got" it. The ends would always get wet and I'd have trouble flossing or keeping them tethered to my fingers. Anyone who hates/finds flossing annoying should get floss picks.
-

Same here, those floss picks are where it's at.

Use a long piece. You arent supposed to saw back and forth. You dig in and pick it back out. Chances are the dentist has done this to you during visits.
-
Flossing picks? That shit is so mine.
-
As long as you're flossing 1-2 times a day, it's all good. Personally I prefer regular floss, not a fan of picks.

Oil resists water. Soap bonds oil and water and then slides off your body. I learned this in fifth grade

I'm talking myself into it. I've had super-short hair for over 10 yrs now but have never actually shaved my head. Given that I work from home, I wouldn't even have to take shit about it!
The other solution is of course to be a big girly-girl and use conditioner.

Shaving your head is actually surprisingly easy once you get used to it. Keep in mind if you DO shave it, you will most likely need to wear a hat, especially in those Tokyo summers.

Let me know how your wife reacts to your bald head.
My wife is completely against me shaving mine, despite my hairline and forehead gradually approaching Shao-Lin formation.
-
I shampoo once every couple of months. My scalp reacts so badly to it, even using natural herbal shampoos. I just give my hair a good daily rinse with hot water in the shower. My hairdresser compliments me on how healthy my hair is, so hey.
Also if you are going to use no soap, dont cop out and soap your buttcrack. Grow you nails long and use those badboys to exfoliate all the dead skin and shit nuggets

lol

Nailed it.

You might as well use all that unused shampoo/soap and jerk it in the tub while you're there.

How is that any different from regular floss? Do you rip a piece for each tooth? If it bothers you use 2 different picks for the top and bottom rows. Your teeth arent going to be harmed by the same floss strip.
-
http://www.adha.org/oralhealth/flossing.htm
5. Use separate piece of floss for every tooth
???
-
I just wash the pick off. I feel bad enough using those things at all for how wasteful they are. But I probably wouldn't floss otherwise.
-
You're supposed to rinse the pick. We wouldnt want to rub our teeth with the same food particles would we?
-
Yeah, wash it after each tooth.
-
I use dental silk, quick to handle and you can use a different part of the string for each tooth.
-
A week and a half into this, and so far my razor bumps have completely disappeared despite shaving every two days and the pimples that I've had on my back for years are completely gone.
-
I rinse the picks in mouthwash between teeth, makes 'em nice and minty too!

So, only used water to wash my hair today, will see how long I can keep that up. I would shave my hair as that does indeed seem like the best way but my girlfriend would not be pleased.
-
scrubbed myself off with some nice-smelling body soap today. i also put oil-free facewash on a seaweed pad and scrubbed my face, and did my hair with shampoo AND conditioner. i put on some deodorant and cologne and damn i smell great now.
-
walked by some homeless dudes today who are also on a no soap no shampoo challenge. It didn't appear to be going well for them.

I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

walked by some homeless dudes today who are also on a no soap no shampoo challenge. It didn't appear to be going well for them.
:lol

The homeless guys also don't have water and never bathe.
-
They probably go down to the crick and splash some water on.
-
Ha, the crick. That's funny. Nah, they use the sink in the restroom at 7-Eleven.

Agree with Robo.

I havent smelled of BO since I was a teen, dont use deodorant, no aftershave, no antiperspirant, no cologne.
I just use soap and shampoo, would be interesting to see if my body would retain that freshly squeezed momo smell with only water and a rag
-
One time I forgot I ran out of deodorant and decided to put lotion under my arms before heading to class, in the summer. Not a good idea
-
This is what I have to deal with, it's pretty mild so BO doesnt become an issue

Today my mom smelled me and said I smell amazing, and what I was using.
My mom has a real sensitive nose, if I come home from a jog or a walk with the dog, she will tell me if I stink. If the dog stinks, she freaks and forces me to bathe her.
But I haven't been using soap for near two weeks and she thinks I smell amazing and I haven't said shit. :smug

Let me put this in perspective for you Himumumumu
Your mom is acting upon female sensitivity to male pheromones
-
I thought that people with body systems (as in, family members) don't find each other's smell attractive?
-
Your mom sniff your crotch
-
If that were true Alabama wouldnt exist, Himu
-
ahahaha true

I'm on day three of no-soap and I slept through my alarm this morning and had to settle for a quick scrub from the sink and a swipe of deodorant before rushing off to work. I probably smell like the Toxic Avenger's jean shorts. :-X :(
-
haha, to be fair, you would have smelled that bad even if it probably used soap. sink scrubs always make feel unclean.
