Men's shampoo...

When I went to Utah this weekend I forgot to pack any shampoo and conditioner. My mother and I have very different hair, and so generally I find her conditioner to be inadequate. My brothers just don't use the stuff. So I got in the shower at home and surveyed my options. There was one bottle of conditioner there that looked very promising (I'm pretty sure it was a bottle I went out and bought last time I was in town), but there was also a bottle of men's shampoo + conditioner. Since I was kind of rushing to get ready for the game I determined that if I used the shampoo + conditioner, I may end up smelling like a man, but it would probably save time. Women never use men's shampoo. For reasons that are not clear to me this stuff seemed to be next to impossible to rinse out, and my hair felt very odd afterwards. The closest word I can use to describe the texture of my hair is squeaky...which reminds me that I forgot my squeaky cheese, and accidentally left it behind at the Hexberg's. :( Anyhow, I was able to use the other conditioner that was in the shower, and my hair seemed to come very close to making an immediate full recovery. After I got out I was telling my brothers that I had used this product, and that it was horrible. They told me that one of my brothers used it a few times and his hair started falling out. The other two brothers confirmed that it did indeed make his hair fall out in clumps until he discontinued the use. The brother who is the proud owner of this product told me that if I read the label closely I will see that it warns you not to wash your hair with it more than twice a week because of it's potency. Never again will I use men's hair products.

Crap. I used some stuff there, too; which one is making hair fall out?

I don't know, dark green-blue bottle, I believe it's a Suave product.

OK, I used a Suave lavendar shampoo that Andrew said "smells great".

Even if I am a guy I hate those shampoo/conditioner combos. They make my hair feel like it has a slime to it.

(I can't believe I am even commenting on this).

Go Cougars Saturday!
