This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well yes but eeew ....

You can use PH neutral soap. Showering with water only is not a good idea. Using high quality soap and shampoo is! (High quality shampoo won't foam when hair is dirty, pH neutral soap won't burn in pee hole)

Edit regarding topic: I tried the "only" water method because I found soap and shampoo to be too aggressive. The smell isn't the issue if you wash daily and change clothes daily (everything reeks in the evening) but the effort and the oilfactory social paranoia isn't worth it. => See solution above.

What's a good shampoo, also is there an alternative soap testing method?

If you give up waiting for the parent comment to respond and begin testing soap, let us know the results.

Ideally you got a hair dresser who knows his trade. Ask them what they suggest when you get your next hair cut. They gladly sell you some. It's expensive (like 30-50€ a bottle) but you use only small amounts and it lasts for approx 2-3 months.

For me it stopped hair loss, itchy scalp and scales. It was a nightmare. Now, normal fat free hair. Wash every 2-3 days.

Ph-neutral soap can be bought in pharmacies or some supermarkets as "intimate areas soap for women". But it definetly works on male body parts too =)
