Here is a short article on MSN today basically talking about the no shampooing method:
I wash my hair using shampoo and conditioner every day, and sometimes twice a day if I’ve had a particularly grueling workout session. When I first heard about this “no poo” beauty trend, in which women abstain from washing their hair for long periods of time (in some cases, as long as six months), I admit that I felt a little queasy. Many of the women who gave up shampoo use only hot water to rinse their hair, or a teaspoon of baking soda. The longest I’ve ever gone without washing my hair was 4 days, when I was on a volunteer trip without hot water, and my hair felt greasy and dirty.
According to some experts, shampoo cleanses by “stripping the hair of its natural, necessary oils, causing the scalp to produce more oil in response, making it impossible for some to skip shampoo for even one day without sprouting a gigantic greaseball.” Paradi Mirmirani, M.D., a dermatologist in California, says that “shampoos are fine to use every day, but there’s nothing gross or unsafe about ditching shampoo.”
What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without washing your hair?
of course I had to put somebody in a corner
