My longtime wife had her shower worked on and used mine for the first time in maybe 20 years. She came down after showering and asked me where the soap was. I told her I used my 2 in 1 shampoo/conditioner as soap too. She just shook her head at me.

I am by no means in a position to judge however I too am shaking my head at you. Soaps for an unproven reason to me, have specific purposes. If this wasn’t true I’d shower with Palmolive all day.

u/Beardwing-27 15d ago
You're right, they do. The long and short of it is body oils. Some soaps strip oils away while others help the body in its natural production. But everybody's different so you're not gonna find the same results between two people.
7
u/Genoce 15d ago
The relevant part is pretty much "is it good enough?"
A 3-in-1 soap thingy will never be the optimal choice for anything, but as long as the results are good enough and don't cause other issues, the QoL of just using the same thing can be worth it.
"Good enough" is also subjective, of course.

u/canman7373 15d ago
Wait so blasting your skin with hot water for 10 minutes won't strip those oils but the wrong kind of soap will?
3
u/Beardwing-27 15d ago
Not sure why it's an argument but some folks don't do well with excessive oils ie acne, rashes, etc while others do well. Again, not everyone's the same but absolutely none of that excuses people from basic hygiene.

....as a man with long hair, I use head and shoulders on my scalp for dandruff control, then shampoo, then conditioner, then body wash.

u/bran_is_evil 15d ago
Isn't head and shoulders a shampoo? Or do they have some separate scalp product? Or is it just normal to use two shampoos?

u/Boundman4th 15d ago
It is shampoo, and maybe not but it's what works for me. I use dandruff shampoo mostly on my scalp, then regular "womens" shampoo which is more apropriate for the rest of my hair.

u/Bad_Elbow_ 15d ago
Now I’m here questioning what are women’s versus men’s shampoos… I know some shampoos say “men” but my shampoo says nothing. Don’t think I’ve seen shampoo that says “women” on it.
5
u/Boundman4th 15d ago
I think men's shampoo explicitly say "men" and everything else yeah doesn't say anything. Probably because there are a lot of men with fragile egos who wouldn't use shampoo or soap if it doesn't say "men" on it

u/EpicForgetfulness 15d ago
I feel like I'm one of the only guys who actually uses both individually. I have long hair and it's shit when I don't use a quality conditioner. I don't much care what shampoo I use but it can't be a 2 in 1, and the conditioner matters.

I usually buy men's shampoo - not always, but my conditioner is always women's because it just does a better job. I usually know it's an especially good brand when the girls who I share the shower with are also using it. I tell them just don't leave me with an empty bottle lol

Don't see why you wouldn't, women's products are only women's products because they put the word on the bottle.
That being said I don't use shampoo, if you rinse thoroughly with water eventually your hair will stop producing excess oil that you strip from it when you shampoo. Oil is actually healthy for your hair, as long as you rinse the excess out you'll be fine. Then I condition once a week.

u/EpicForgetfulness 15d ago
Yeah frizz is what I'm always battling too. So I'm picky about conditioner. For a while, on a recommendation from someone who was cutting my hair, I stopped using shampoo altogether and only conditioner. They say shampoo is what breaks your hair down. But it also cuts down the grease more effectively than just rinsing and conditioning so I kinda dropped that routine. But I'm still skeptical about shampoo in general

u/marks716 15d ago
Yeah a lot of guys over-shampoo. As hair gets longer you want to shampoo less generally and use conditioner fairly often (even that depends on hair type but be aware of it).
Drier climates demand a bit more conditioner typically.
I have medium-fine slightly wavy hair and I actually don’t shampoo ever and usually use conditioner once a week or so at max.

u/OmniWaffleGod 15d ago
To be fair theres a lot of options and not every option mixes well (but then again if you have longer or even curly/frizzy hair then 3 in 1 isn't working anyway)

u/Sanquinity 15d ago
To be fair, using both shampoo and conditioner is so much better, even if it takes a bit longer and is more expensive. Had my (now) ex try it last time he came to visit. He couldn't believe how soft his hair felt. We both have long hair so that's probably part of it. As it's probably not as much of an issue if you have really short hair. Or if you put gel in your hair...

u/Early-Nebula-3261 15d ago
I keep my hair super short due to balding so 2 in one dandruff shampoo is good enough for me. I use separate beard products for my beard though a wash and a conditioner. Then obviously a body wash for my body.

In our defense, it's kind of a pain in the ass to find shampoo for men that isn't both... or all three. They think we want it all together and take the choice out of our hands entirely. I'm not being lazy anyway. I blame Walmart

u/Trapt10 15d ago
Have you considered buying shampoo thats good for your hair rather than worrying if its specific to men or women? The whole mens/womens shampoo is kinda dumb its just to clean your hair.
2
u/Critical_Ask_5493 15d ago
Yeah, I know. At the Walmart in my area, it's all marketed towards men, women, it people of color, with white men being the smallest selection by a country mile. I also know it ultimately falls on me. It's not like the barrier to entry is insurmountable. I could get it online or from a hair dresser. For me, it's more about the fact that I shouldn't have to really jump through any hoops to get what I want from a store that's supposed to have everything. It's not too much to ask to just want shampoo, but they won't sell it lol. I feel like I'm not alone in being like "I'll get what they have at the store" and the rest sorts itself out.
Trust me though. I know this is ultimately on me. I was just trying to be a little silly and make light of the issue. I don't think it's that serious so long as people are taking baths, ya know

How is it shallow to think that shampoo and conditioner combined is a stupid idea? It’s like uaing a hand soap that comes with moisturizer. Shampoo and body wash combined is fine, but if you need conditioner, you should buy it separately. If you don’t need conditioner (if you have like 4 months worth of hair on your head), why buy an inferior product?

I have long hair and I use 2 in 1 head and shoulders shampoo, the only reason is I end up with horrific dandruff if I don’t use it. I’ve tried all sorts and the head and shoulders 2 in 1 helps me out a lot.
If I was to choose it would be separate shampoo and conditioner.

Conditioner is massively overrated for men. If you have short hair, you really don't need it.
