Comments on: Results of My “No Soap, No Shampoo” Experiment http://vladdolezal.com/blog/2010/no-soap-no-shampoo/ feel deeply alive, every single day Wed, 16 May 2012 19:13:16 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Fish Jones http://vladdolezal.com/blog/2010/no-soap-no-shampoo/comment-page-1/#comment-5766 Fish Jones Tue, 06 Mar 2012 11:00:07 +0000 http://vladdolezal.com/blog/?p=1210#comment-5766 Yay I'm not alone on this!!!! How long was the guy's hair that did this? You've got long hair, that might have something to do with it. I have way long hair, long enough that it gets creepy greasy on the sides, fast. On the other hand, the 'no soap on body' I've been doing for years. It feels AWESOME!! Nobody's ever been okay with me doing that. I hate the smell of most soap. It makes me gag thinking about it. I've used soap once on my body in the past... 4 years. That was actually a little good. My legs apparently had a weird blue color from wearing jeans that I didn't notice until the soap got that off. After that, I still scrub, just not with soap. ^ ^ Yay I’m not alone on this!!!!

In homes for the elderly, they are not bathed daily because their skin is too thin. Naturally, if there is a need - an accident or such, they are bathed again. I have not used soap for at least a couple of months now. I do enjoy the shower daily and I do use a loofah to help removed dead skin, dirt, and excess oils from my skin. The only change to my scent is that I don't smell like Irish Spring or Ivory and I don't have to moisturize every time I get out of the shower now. After the shower, my skin feels soft. Another benefit I've noticed about myself, is that when I was using soap, I'd have the most terrible foot odor, now when I take off my shoes I don't kill everyone in the house. Honestly, I believe that using soap was causing my skin to go into overdrive....by stripping it of all of it's oils I was harming it and causing it to produce more. I have to admit that I've taken to using a slightly soapy rinse on my hair every few days because I just can't get the hang of using the baking soda. All in all, I like the way I smell and I like the way other people smell when they aren't using soap.

Apparently, shampoo and soap is tempting on human because of change. There are changes in the body and environment that really needs proper care of using shampoo and soap. It is advisable to use that daily because it is part of growing old. Those days, human used on not having shampoo and soap in their body.

Pollution and dust will trigger your beauty skin care. I'm not totally agree without using soap and shampoo. Using shampoo and soap can minimize because there are effects on the body with abuse.

I use a nice soft boar bristle brush to evenly distribute the oil. I brush very thoroughly to remove dirt or dander and such, then i do rinse my hair a lot and massage my scalp like I'm shampooing it. My hair is the softest it has ever been (i'm a girl by the way). I've also stopped using soap on my face and my skin feels so amazingly better. Your post has helped me decide to just keep on with the no soap at all! Thanks!!! I’m doing the no shampoo thing now.

It even grow faster and shiner this time. I just could not stand not to use soap for I had this thing that is very stinky whenever I sweat too much. I just can't help it.

The goal is not to try and silence your mind but rather sort through all the information the day gives you, once you are finished you will feel that silence you so desire. When you meditate think of everything you can until you are all thought out... it usually takes 45 minutes... It helped me get great grades in college. you can just sit back and let your mind sort itself out sometimes.. what helps are ear plugs and a blindfold.

I think this aids in the more even distribution of oils along my hair. My hair isn't very long, nearly shoulder length so the tangling isn't very bad at all and it feels wonderful. It is so soft, even on those days I have to blow dry. I have noticed that when I put my nose to my arm and sniff hard, I smell like a human (humans smelling like humans - go figure), not a strange soapy flower and again, I really have to concentrate to pick up the scent. My face is soft, and not oily or tight (which prompts me to put artificial chemical lotions on it causing breakouts occasionally). I have also discovered that I'm not as cold as I come out of the shower during the winter. Our skin is supposed to protect our bodies from illness so why would we need to attack it? I didn't see a name on the posts and maybe it's because I haven't looked hard enough, but I'm with you sister/brother.
