    I’ve been washing my face with shampoo since I saw a meme about it and it’s been fine. I actually got complimented on my skin.

    I’m sorry, but men’s 6 in 1 soap sucks ass. The moment I tried shampoo and conditioner for women, my (at the time short) hair got way better and I never looked back. Now that I have long hair I’m not even going to consider washing with the hair destroyer 2000 again. The image is wrong, the “conditional soap” is way better because it’s not just soap.

    Assuming there’s any truth to that, why wouldn’t women just use the 6 in 1 shampoo?

    …And man-pants with pockets, while we’re on the topic. I suppose there might be issues in the hip-department there, though.

      I think it’s not so much the shampoo but a mix of most men using shorter haircuts and doing less damaging things to their hair, like hair colouring.

      And it’s not like there aren’t specialized shampoos targeting primarily men. I think I never saw a dandruff shampoo marketed towards women.

      It’s nonsense, and men with longer hair who use 6 in 1 have bad results. Longer hair takes more treatment, hair is usually vitalized by oils from the scalp, so the further away from the scalp the more help it needs to stay healthy.

      Some already do.

      And man pants aren’t that big of a hurdle to get used to. Just need to take measurements of waistband and inseam and you’ve got the size to look for in mens pants. Thats what I like about them: they have much better sizing labels than the nebulous/arbitrary size numbers on women’s pants.

        Whatever works, right? Right now I’m wearing this really nice pair of sturdy heavy-duty felt-lined jeans from Duluth Trading Company which are supposedly made for women (albeit with perfectly nice pockets) - not that I care one whit. They fit perfectly, and are generally lovely.

      Almost everything on the market is shit and will destroy your hair. That includes the 6 in 1 shampoo, men just usually have less hair.

    I’m mostly bald, use clippers for any survivors; and like to make fun of any conditioner or shampoo. So, I upvoted this post

      I had to do it after Burning Man cause that’s all the gas station had. Granted, my hair was dirty with mud and unwashed for a week, but still.

      It was a horrible mess. The 2-in-1 product didn’t do either job well - washing or conditioning. My long gorgeous hair turned into near dreads and felt so nasty. Never again.

    The trick for everyone, use the cheapest shampoo you are comfortable using. Spend the time and money to find a good conditioner for your hair and scalp type. I need antidandruff shampoo and use a light leave in conditioner. You’d think it used $40 products from the salon.

    Itt: people missing the joke conditioner/conditional. It’s not that good, but nothing to get mad over either

    Also the specialized shampoo is 15.99, the 17-in-1 everything-soap is 1.19.

    But the specialized shampoo is pink, so that you know that’s the one you’re supposed to buy.
