no poo challenge - update

Oh my gosh. It was horrible!
After 10 days, I quit!
So after the first wash my hair felt dirty. I read that it takes a few washes to get your pH balance back to normal so I waited a day and washed again. My hair was disgusting!! It felt like I hadn't washed it in a month. So I just rinsed it with water and scrubbed as best I could. My hair has never felt so dirty and never looked so gross.
I just couldn't handle it. Maybe I didn't give my scalp enough time to get back to it's healthy pH balance but I don't even care. Hair is dead anyway right?? What's a few more chemicals gonna hurt it?

If you're confused about what I'm talking about...see my previous post here about my No Poo Challenge.
If you tried it or still want to try it, let me know how it goes! Maybe my hair just prefers shampoo :)

Oh my gosh you are so funny. I went to a salon a couple of years ago and the lady was trying to get me to go No Poo. There is a bottle of it actually called No Poo. It was fine when she used it on me and she was convinced that my hair would be curly but isn't because of all the chemicals and blow drying. Me, curly? She was strange! I know of other people that only wash their hair like every 4 days and it takes a month to get used to it, but I can't handle it! What about when you sweat like crazy during spin class? Gross! And dry shampoo makes my hair dull, heavy, and lifeless. Bring on the Poo! :-)
