Jumping on this comment to say I've been shampoo free for about 5 years now. In my 30s with a full head of thick hair.

At the end of my 20s I started noticing hair falling out at the temples, mild recession, nothing crazy, but enough to make a vain dude freak out a bit. Stopped the shampoo cold turkey and haven't looked back, Hair is fuller and thicker than ever and I haven't seen any fall out since.

Might shampoo 2-3 times a year, after camping (smoke smell) or excessively sweaty sports, etc.

when I was playing hockey a few times a week (soaked in sweat), I would just jump in a real hot shower and scrub my scalp with my fingers, work that hot water all through my hair, and end the shower with a blast of cold water to the head (uncomfortable, but I think it helps snap the pores shut).

try it out and see if you can manage, most people report that it takes a few weeks for your body to adjust and slow the production of natural oils.

Also you could try a dry shampoo, post-shower, if the hair is still greasy. Worse case scenario is you have to go back to you regular shampoo routine. I've never looked back though, and get compliments on the shine and body of my hair all the time - no smell.

  • I also use a small amount of WATER BASED styling product, NOT PETROLEUM BASED** This is very important to my regime!**

If you're flying from Toronto I might suggest looking at YYZdeals, sorry if this is competing with the OP, but I find some great deals via that site/fb group.
