Why do we use shampoo?

[sickhouse]

I know some of you are going to say "you already made this thread" but that thread had a different OP and questioning, this is pretty straight forward (no melting scalps).

So why do we use shampoo? I've asked like 20 people this, most peope doesn't have an answer and the ones that do says it's to keep it clean and free from fat (durr it gets fat because your body is addicted to it).
My parents used it on me when I was a baby since then I've been addicted to it, but there are other ways to keep the hair clean. Came up with the idea to use salt water to clean it X times a week.

I've broken my foot so it takes me a long time to make sure my plaster doesn't get wet, showering is a a drag so only been doing it 1-2 times a week, been 5 weeks soon - my hair has obviously been very fat during this time but it's starting to adapt now.
Been using no shampoo for over 1 week now and it looks as good as it does when I use shampoo, next time I shower I may use a little but that will be the last time after that I am going to use only water and salt water when I shower. What do you think?

It's for the same reason that you wash your hands after you use the bathroom, and other body parts in the shower. Shampoo cleans dirt out of your hair. It's not a conspiracy, that's what it is made for. Shampoo is a relatively recent invention, before it people used soap to clean their hair. Shampoo does the same thing but it is more consistent as soap reacts differently at different temperatures and with different minerals in water. Shampoo also has chemicals that make it foam and smell good. Shampoo definitely isn't necessary, some people think it's a waste of money and poor for your scalp, and there are definitely natural alternatives out there. If you think shampoo is the devil you don't have to use it. However, I haven't heard anyone who uses purely salt water to clean, and if you have no knowledge of the sciences behind cleaning your hair, I suggest you go online and look up some healthier shampoo alternatives.

I'm guessing you're single. When you want a girlfriend, use shampoo.

To masturbate ?

To clean our hair?  The bottle tells me that!

Shampoo actually leaves behind some oils and greases that help give your hair that "Clean" look. The oils are clean and not bad for you at all, it's just an artificial clean look.

For the same reason why we use soap. At least some of us does.

To stay clean ?! lol

I use a single bottle to wash in the shower for hair and body, but mostly I stand there contemplating about life and let the water wash down and wait for my wife to yell at me I am taking too long

Google cleaning your water with salt and see results. Also, you shouldn't need 10+ different chemicals to make your hair clean (read the ingridigents)...

That was the best answer
It's to smell nice and attract others also for cleanliness in general

here is how my hair looks now, I don't think it's too bad. It will take months for it to get rid of the need for shampoo considering I've used it for 25 years but if it looks like this now it will look awesome in a month. 10 days since I last used shampoo, used salt water yesterday.

Smell? You do realize that the smell after you shower go away after a couple of hours? I just smelled my hair and it smells fine, doesn't smell "COME HERE GIRLS GET ME" but it doesn't smell like shit either. Smell-less so to speak.

The bottle costs money and the company wants to make money. "This makeup product will make you look beatufil for $9.99", I think many girls are hot without a ton of makeup on them.

If I got it right OP you wash your hair only once a week and without shampoo. You're not practicing any sports, are you? Not getting out much as well I presume  

Can't you fucking read? I've broken my foot - not allowed to even stand on it at all for 6 weeks (one week left now thank god), everytime I go outside it's a workout. Try jumping on one foot with crutches for one day and see how well you do, my muscle mass has doubled since I got plastered.

When you're taking a shower before a date or going to bed with your woman it's those hours that matter
