what's everyone's favorite soap? i used to be an ivory person, then i went to dove, now i'll swear by dr. bronner's magic soap.

My favorite soap has got to be Dove...the pink kind. Ever used that Bath and Body Works gel soap? That's some good stuff, too. But yeah, Dove.

dove & ivory have always smelled too strong. i can handle the unscented stuff for sensitive skin though. i second the dr. bronners; it's available at wild oats.

As I've met some of you and hope to meet more of you at upcoming shows, I'll be paying attention to see who has the best skin in order to help me settle down on a certain brand.

crest is rad. they donate money from every sale to juvenile diabetes research.

for the record (i've said that alot today) that p.m. toothpaste is the greatest invention of the century. if you use it before you go nighty night you still wake up minty fresh. the tube is navy blue and has little stars all over it, making bedtime that much better.

I miss that Crests kids' toothpaste with the sparkles in it. It may have even come in a dispenser with the Super Friends on it (or my childhood memories could be getting all jumbled up again).

I used to buy into that whole marketing lie that the man tries to sell us. 'Only the big corporations can make dental products that work,' they try to tell us. I got smart, though. I just looked at the stuff they were advertising on the box: baking soda, fluoride, bleach. I saved a ton of cash by making my own toothpaste. I just mixed Clorox, Arm & Hammer, and fluoridated tap water. It burns a bit, but at least I'm not wasting my money on some big corporation that exploits foreign workers!

I don't know about the Super Friends, but I do remember them making sparkle kids' toothpaste in the shape of Kermit the Frog. In fact, when I was cleaning out the bathroom last week, I found a fossilized tube of it wedged between the pipes. Yum.

I saw that the other day at Wal-Mart and wanted to buy some, but I was too cheap and opted for Suave junk that I don't like at all...so, now I'm stuck with it until it's all gone because I'm too cheap to buy a whole new bottle.

Bar soaps gross me out. I prefer Jergen's Skin Firming body wash. Oh, and avon makes this body wash that's orange and is stress relieving. I can't remember the name of it though. I'm all about some stress relief.

OH, and I love Nivea skin firming lotion.

the best body wash is st ives "rejuvenating" grapefruit scent. if you love grapefruit but had to stop eating it because it interfered with your prescription medicines, this shit is an acceptable alternative.

i now swear by dove shampoo & conditioner.

colgate total whitening gel is the best toothpaste i have ever had. it really really keeps on working like the commercial says. take it from me. just try it. its so good.

oh! and ladies, the dove deoderant is definitely top quality. i was apprehensive too about a "moisturizing" deoderant [kinda seems like an oxy-moron], but, its great. really great.

like stephaniew, i am a pink dove girl.

i have very strange shampoo habits. i have about 7 different kinds in my shower at any point in time (all with matching conditioners of course). i have it in my head that if i use the same shampoo for more than two days in a row that my hair will get used to it and it will stop working to its maximum ability. i swear i don't straighten the fringe on the rug.

right now if you peeked in my shower a few bottles you might see are: tresemme, vidal sassoon, clairol renewal 5x, wella vivality, and good ol' thermasilk. if i'm feeling fancy i spring for some paul mitchell (just for the smell).

my favorite lotion is serenity body cream from bath and body works. but, sadly, this is discontinued. now i just use baby magic.

the shampoos and conditioners you guys are using are all wrong. they contain alcohol (which dries your hair out, did i hear you say split ends?) and parafin (which weighs your hair down, causing it to break off at the crown of your head) and god knows what else.

i use aveda. aveda sap moss shampoo, sap moss conditioner, and sap moss nourishing concentrate. every three weeks i'll use aveda shampure shampoo for a week.

I would reccomend Dove deoderant as well, it smells good and really works. Speaking of smells, fellas, the best smelling cologne out there is Swiss Army. I'm obsessed. I wear it myself from time to time. Go get it, forget Axe. I think Axe smells awful.

I have shampoo problems. I have oily roots and dry ends and nothing seems to work. I always end up wearing my hair up.

Maybe I've just been suckered into believing the commercials or what not, but I use Pantene hair products and I really think they work. However, even though my hair is shiny now, it has always been shiny. It has no body, but it is shiny. That's just the texture of my hair. So maybe Pantene's not really responsible, and Kelly Rippa just has me snowed.

oh no... I cringe when I hear people say they use Pantene. That stuff may make your hair shiny, but it will in the long run cause your hair to break off and get split ends.

thanks to this thread, i was reminded that I used the last of my shampoo this morning... needless to say I used my lunch break at the grocery. Thank god I didn't go to a hair salon to buy my shampoo... the choices at Winn-Dixie were perplexing enough. Here is why I will never know what to do in the shampoo aisle:

1) The bottles are in all shapes and sizes. Which one is more expensive than the other per ounce? you need a goddamn calculator to figure it all out.
2) Do I have dry and damaged hair? or is it oily and damaged? maybe it's just dry or just oily? what if it's just damaged? Do i need frizz control or shine? Do I want my hair full bodied? What the hell is full bodied anyway? and what's the norm when coming to dry vs. oily or damaged vs. undamaged? how do I know when my hair is frizzy?
3) The smells. I have to go through and smell every bottle. Does it smell girly or fruity? how come there are no genuinely manly scents? true, there are less-than-girly scents, but I see no "musk scented" shampoos. How chemically does it smell. Most importantly, how does this reflect upon my hair after said washing? Does the scent overpower me all day like my roommates cologne baths? Is the scent attractive to the ladies, or does it serve to only emasculate me?
4) The names. The names are all fucked up.
5) Nationality. Do I need German shampoo or australian shampoo? Italian? is there any english shampoo? what about asian? I don't know enough about my own heritage to make a decision there.

And so, I have decided that I need a girlfriend. Specifically I need a girlfriend that knows about hair. specifically guy's hair. she will be in charge of making the selection for me so that I don't have to think or learn mundane things about B vitamins and proteins that are otherwise useless to the world.

as far as I can tell.. pretty much nothing it says on the bottles matters anyway as to how the hair looks, feels, etc. Just so long as it makes the hair clean. I think the rest depends on genetics for the most part, and styling methods. The smell is the important thing anyway.

And may I just point out that none of this should matter that much in the first place. Oily vs. dry, frizzy vs. shiny, full vs. no body.... blah to it all.

I can actually help you out with your smell issue. I use Charles Worthington Take Aways shampoo (its the travel size but its only 99cents and they last me a month so I just get those but they make big ones). They all smell very masculine. I reccomend the pink kind for you. Boys usually dont have very dry/damaged hair since they dont blow dry/straighten. The pink kind is deep cleansing for Normal/Oily hair and it works well. I get them at Walgreens. It's "from London" since you were wondering the nationality.

oh no... I cringe when I hear people say they use Pantene. That stuff may make your hair shiny, but it will in the long run cause your hair to break off and get split ends.
Doesn't hair just naturally do that, no matter what shampoo/conditioner you use? I just spent like a million bucks at the grocery store the other day, so I'll have to wait quite a while before I consider switching brands. Guess I'll just have to live with those split ends.

Well you got a good point there. I have yet to find anything that really keeps my hair healthy. I guess if I would keep the hair dye away from my hair though it wouldn't look so terrible. blink.gif

I have always been too scared to dye my hair. It used to be red, was later pretty blonde, and is now kind of orange. I think it could probably be improved, but I'm afraid that coloring it would only make things worse.

Yes, me too. Every now and then I get so sick of my hair and want to dye it black. But, I'm afraid I'll ruin my hair and it will never go back to its original color. I know that coloring one's hair is addictive, and once you do it once you're never satisfied with your original color and you have to keep dying it over and over again. I don't want to start a vicious cycle.

I wanted to dye my hair orange when I was a freshman. I don't know why, and I'm glad I didn't. Now I want to dye it brown. If you've seen me, you may think "That retard's hair is brown," but it isn't. It's going grey and going fast. I'm going to have to dye it before I go all Jay Leno or "That Guy From The Nanny."

I think I've dyed my hair nearly 75% of the colors imaginable. I was a strange child. Due to growing a little older, and having a job requiring relatively professional grooming and dress, I'm stuck with my boring old brown.

I think that unless you are sure of what you are doing, you should not dye your hair. I dyed mine black last summer, and due to a violet pigment in the dye ended up with purple-ish colored hair. I also redyed it only to stain my fingers black. I am just thankful that it didn't last very long. Now I am extrremely happy with boring brown hair.

it is a vicious cycle, but a fun one at that. i dont look at it as being dissatisfied with my color, but rather satisfied with a new color every now and then. its exciting to see how it turns out because it is never the same as the time before, even if you buy the same color.

also, i dye my moms hair. she has plain old brown hair, and i just get the dye that is the closest to her original color. you would be amazed at how much better it looks because the pigments vary throughout the hair and makes it look so much more shiny and natural. and then, when her roots grow out, you cant tell because it is so close to the original color.

ahhhh i love hair dye

hair dye is addictive, and if you haven't started doing it, I would reccommend that you don't. I've done it for 5 years now and I've had almost every hair color you could imagine. When January came I was finally tired of having black/dark brown hair so I bleached it white or tried to... and it was orange for about 2 weeks. I now am back close to my natural color and haven't had the urge to dye my hair in almost 2 months which is crazy for me. who knows, maybe I'll actually stop this time.

ahhh...i totally agree. its quite fun to dye your hair. i think i dyed my hair about every color but green and blue when i was younger. now that i'm older, i prefer to dye my hair more natural colors. my natural hair color is light brown which isn't too bad. i guess i get bored with the same old hair color all the time and like to mix it up. i usually go for red with highlights but sometimes i like a darker brown with highlights. its fun to dye your hair BUT make sure you know what you are doing! otherwise, go to a hair salon...that's what i do half the time.

yeah, i play the hair dye game too. i think it's fun when you get to pick new colors and mix and match and stuff. but now mine is black and it's more of a chore. the only time i get to play with dye now is when doing the roots. but i have no urge to change my color anytime soon, so i'm not complaining.

and another thing...i don't buy this whole "dying your hair is sure to make it unhealthy" thing. i say as long as you know what you're doing when you dye it and you condition well and often, you should be fine. at least that has always worked for me.

I know you were standing behind me at one point, so I assume you are referring to my hair. You have crossed the line when you talk about Sadie's hair. It is not FOR REAL breaking off. I would say I know my hair better than you. I have very healthy hair, actually.

NO, I guarantee it was mine. It's not enough to critique everything I say on this message board. Now, she's got to criticize my hair. And there will never be respect shared between these two message board members.

I just looked at this...um, though I do have a newfound acquaintance in Sina and her posse, I doubt that it is Ms. Sadie to whom she is referring. This is simply because her hair was not nappy. Though I first assumed that she was talking about me, I then remembered that I don't give a fuck and everything was ok. Anyway, I wouldn't worry about it Sadie. Typically, when we have disparaging comments, we address the receiver by mentioning some identifiable qualities of that person. Anyway, it's all good, because our mutual friends like your hair.

and God knows I could criticize your hair, but I don't go around message boards insulting others.
go for it. the (gay) genius who does my hair is coming here soon and we all need a good laugh.

more advice: go to a stylist who'll give their honest opinion about your hair and doesn't care whether or not they hurt your feelings.
Hey, Sina. You seem like the hair guru and perhaps a good person to ask:

Do you know of any good stylists (updos, etc.)? I am looking for someone kickass to do my hair for my wedding.

I probably should have PMed this. Sorry.

are you in nashville or murfreesboro?

my stylist, toby, is at rodney mitchell's in the villiage and at studio gaven in cool springs. and there's elizabeth clifton at tangerine in murfreesboro. my friend kayla goes to salon fx on 21st ave and they do a great job on her hair, too. all three of these use aveda products. yay.
she's just another ho that i met in the hood

I'm in Nash.

Thanks, Mucho. I will explore these...when I have time.

I just noticed that I'm getting split ends again, but I don't want to cut my hair b/c it's trying to grow. Oh, what to do...

i used to freak out about split ends. now i'll just trim it off which i'm still considered a freak for. my advice would be to still get a trim. there's no sense in having long hair if it's going to be unhealthy, now is there? (sorry, that's the mom in me.) i don't remember what hair type you have to tell you what product to use. ok, my full on advice... get your hair trimmed and then use a good shampoo and conditioner (one that won't leave build up on your scalp, causing hair to not grow as fast.) and since you're getting married and all, i'd even give you some aveda stuff... as soon as you tell me what kind of hair you have.
oh and when's the wedding?

OK, my hair is very fine and thin - cornsilk-like, but I have lots of it. Strawberry-blonde; ya know, a fair-skinned chick.

And the wedding's in June - 28th to be exact.

I know I should get it trimmed (mom!), but it's at that very crucial length (just long enough actually to do something with). Anyway, I will probably trim it just a teeny bit. And, surprisingly, I have had very good, cheap results at places like Supercuts. Strange, I know, but after years of having mom cut my hair (well!) free, it's hard to pay lots for a good cut. However, I am willing to do so for the sake of good summer hair.

I just started using Garnier Fructis, and man its so great. I had this whole balance problem earlier but this takes away my oily roots without completley drying out my ends. It has a fantastic lather (I could make a mohawk with it like when I was little biggrin.gif ). The conditioner doesn't make my hair oily or weigh it down but keeps my hair moisturized after all the flat-ironing I've been doing. I never have fly aways anymore and you can almost see yourself in my hair its so shiny. It smells very nice for a while, too. Sorry, its the best my hair has looked since I was six and I'm a very happy girl. cool.gif


I would definatley reccomend it.

i recently switched from dove to the aussie brand. i read the ingredients and there is no alcohol [sina says so] in teh shampoo, and it was only $3.99 instead of $30 aveda. it smells really good and works well so far.

i also switched from st ives body wash to aveeno, which i trust to be a really good brand. it makes my skin more smooth.
oh the drudgery of being wet

i love the smell of aussie & it also makes hair really shiny.

i got this margarita exfoliater the other day and combined with dove soap and a good lotion i now have really soft skin yay.

I just started using this too. I've been pretty happy so far, but I certainly don't have the rave reviews you have!

before aveda i used the aussie moist shampoo and the 3 minute miracle conditioner. it's definitely the next best thing.

i've heard really bad things about the garnier fructis stuff. the online reviews reminded me of the time this girl in london suggested i try trevor sorbie's riche shampoo and conditioner. after searching thru the depths of hell, i finally found it... and it left my hair with that lovely -i've been swimming in a public pool for a week without ever washing my hair- feeling.

and token... i think i've decided on the rosemary mint products for you. you can read about it on their website and tell me what you think. also, do you use anything else on your hair besides shampoo and conditioner?

Rosemary mint products, hmm? Okay, I'll check it out.

I use shampoo, conditioner, and some Paul Mitchell Seal and Shine before blow-drying. I wear it straight and shoulder-lengthed.

I discovered Lever 2000 body wash. It rocks. And for everyone (girls, mostly) that has seen those Intuition razor things on commercials, I bought one, and it, too, rocks. My legs feel so smoothe...ahhhh biggrin.gif
Why would you do that?

I've been wondering about that. It looks like it makes everything so much easier. I'll have to check it out.

i've recently switched from dove to aussie, too. my mom randomly gave a bottle of aussie moist (with matching conditioner) to me because she said it was on sale. i thought "why not?". my hair was pretty healthy before the switch, but i am pleased with the results nonetheless. my hair is definitely a lot softer. however, said softness makes it a lot more difficult for me to get my hair to do anything besides lay there and be healthy. i haven't decided yet who wins in the "healthier hair vs. easier to style hair" battle.

ps-i still sneak and use dove and other shampoos every once in a while (see my aforementioned comments on this thread).

Your theory with shampoos is a lot like my theory with face wash. My skin is always way clearer for the first few days I start a new soap. And I always get scared I will break out if I forget to do my little system when I go out of town or something. But in many cases when I stop using it, I clear up. I don't switch every two days though. Too lazy. I just live with bad skin.

I just bought this great body scrub and lotion set by a company by got2Bspa (with an oomlat - or however you spell that word - over the o in 'got'). Anyway, the scrub is called "Fruit Pie" and is made of Papaya and the lotion is called "Body smoothie" and is dreamy. They were a bit expensive, but they sure have worked wonders on my sunburned skin.

By the way, I no longer like those Garnier Fructis products. They are starting to make my hair feel a bit like straw.

Man, guys must hate this thread.

the last time i went to tangerine the color they used on my hair didn't hold at all. i was pretty disappointed because that shit is so expensive. i had to redo it my self the next week.

i had a dream last night that i got to have an aveda shopping spree in exchange for my appearance on an underwater talk show hosted by star jones. i think i'm missing my shampoo.
