I definitely think nearly everybody or everybody should just wash their hair!! Anyway I recently started using Kristin Ess Gentle shampoo and conditioner and it smells incredible though very feminine (chocolatey and coconutty and floral šŸ™Š) and gets the scalp and hair perfectly clean and soft. I read a lot of reviews from people who love it for their flakey scalps. I also used to really love HiBar solid shampoo and conditioner! With any shampoo don’t be afraid to wash twice if your hair doesn’t feel clean the first time. For curly hair I might also recommend a leave-in cream; Kristin Ess makes an air drying cream that I also enjoy and you would use the tiniest pea-size amount.

āœļøāœļøāœļø I have no qualms about using feminine smelling products. it beats ā€œman stink forest riverā€. Will check out products you mentioned. Also, forgot to mention that my hair is very thick if that changes anything. even if so this looks like a good place for me to start Thanks doc!

steelyfan1998 you’re going to smell sew pretty… I would say that I have thick hair in the sense that it’s very dense and can be hard to even get to the scalp and clean it properly so hopefully this works for you!!

Sorry this is so long šŸ˜… I have straight, fine hair and I currently use the Herbal Essences rose hip shampoo. It's really great at adding shine and making my hair smooth and soft (also smells yummy šŸ˜‹). I've also used the Maui Moisture lightweight hydration shampoo (the pink bottle) and liked it. Another thing that has been a game-changer for my hair is double shampooing! Because my hair is so straight and fine, it gets oily very quickly. I discovered double shampooing recently (which is just shampooing twice) and it gives my hair a little volume and it can last longer without looking greasy. I do every other day! For conditioners/leave-ins I highly recommend anything with jojoba oil! My hair LOVES it and since I'm assuming we have similar hair types yours might love it too. This is an add-on but the Tsubaki Fino hair mask is affordable and makes my hair sooooo shiny!

my hair and scalp are great now bc of this! they also have a clarifying one. added bonus is now i have extra space for liquids when traveling lol i also liked the l’oreal everpure shampoo in the past. i’m still figuring out a good conditioner lol if you don’t already i’d recommend figuring out your hair type and then seeing what kinds of things you need in a shampoo. eg i have low porosity hair so i now avoid products with a lot of oils

I’m trying really hard to write a rec that doesn’t just sound like regurgitated marketing lol. This isn’t a shampoo or a conditioner—but a cleansing cream. My hair is super fine and kinda sucks. I used to wash my hair each time I showered because it just got tangled if I wet it and didn’t slather it in conditioner. I’ve been using this product for about 9 months now and it has truly worked wonders. My hair is super soft, looks fuller, and actually feels clean. I only wash it twice a week now and it looks good between washes. It did take some time to get used to, but I’m really happy with it and glad I made the switch!

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too šŸ’Œ
