Didn’t mean to imply any impairment in sebum production, other than the increase to accommodate for the dryness. (Which can result in overly oily hair when you stop shampooing, which is a feedback loop your wallet really doesn’t need to accommodate for).

For what its worth, my haircare routine consists entirely of warm water and a bit of a scrub.

People are genuinely amazed when I tell them I don’t use shampoo or conditioner lol.

👍

Depends what you mean by washing.

Hot water isn’t good for your skin, hair, or your microbiome.

Soap and shampoo are the same.

Consider the case of my mother, she’s involved with wildlife rescues, and washes her hands multiple times a day with soap, so she doesn’t cross contaminate animal species (some have diseases or parasites which can kill others).

On the best of days, her hands itch like crazy because the microbiome on her hands is all fucked up. Moisturizing isn’t the solution here.

But when she’s got her itchy hands full, excessive washing means all of the protective layers of oils are gone, her hands dry out and crack.

We haven’t evolved to require cleaning in this way. People forget that hygiene is matter of health, not the social contagion it has become.

In Korea for example, they’ve been so conditioned (pun intended) by an obsession with cleanliness that many parents refuse to let their children play in nature, for fear of getting dirty (word for word what I’ve heard from multiple Korean parents while I was over there last year).

Thats why I do my exercises in the nude.

As you said, the increase in oiliness is compounded upon daily use of shampoo. Using it frequently will eventually strip all of the oils out (if you’ve got long hair - People with shorter hair shouldn’t have an issue).

There are certainly times where I use it, but it’s very rare, it normally fucks my shit up for a good week.

apocrine glands, like those in humans, produce an odorless, oily, opaque secretion that gains its characteristic odor upon bacterial decomposition.

Sweat kickstarts a bacterial feeding frenzy, leading to rapid binary fission (replication of bacteria which produce bad odour).

During winter my armpits do have a very mild smell, but during summer there’s a notable difference.

The first place most people hit with the soap is their armpits.

They’re creating a feedback loop condition for their armpits to smell worse in general.

I know lol, I’m just playing along.

Hot showers are bourgeoisie propaganda, designed to keep the working class in a perpetual cycle of stank.

Think about it, the sales of hygiene products fuel our economies, they have us played for absolute fools.

Our hot showers come at the cost of energy, normally coal, which makes climate change worse, making us hotter, and more sweaty, leading to more hot showers.

Ten thousand years ago, our ancestors had no class divide, no climate change, and no hot showers.

Surely you see now that our only option is to rise up, and together, say “fuck this shit” and kill billionaires and stop taking hot showers.

And if you keep taking hot showers then you’re enabling the fascist techno crypto oligarchy patriarchy.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a lukewarm shower to attend.

Because of sweat?

As someone who doesn’t use shampoo and has hair which has re-adapted to not having the natural oils stripped out, and doesn’t use soap for the same reason, I am confident to say:

** Showers are a good thing. **

Just don’t blast your skin with steaming hot water and your skins microbiome and keratin glands will adapt. Being “100% clean” will lead to sweat which stinks because of the heat-resistant bacteria which flourishes (thanks to a less diverse microbiome) and produces bad odour after digesting your sweat.

Sweat itself doesn’t have a smell, it’s why you don’t stink the moment you start sweating.

What OP is doing here is fabricating a satirical story based on these principles.

Don’t change.

Bitch, I don’t care what colour your snatch is, but you better be stacked like the Asylum Demon.

Lay down some soapstone for me and I’ll drop into your ass like I start that fight.

Can we date (As an experiment)? I suspect dating someone with the obsessive qualities to do this is also frustrating.

Without Kojima, I don’t trust Konami to not fuck this up.

And one idle-game, and one town builder with real-time build counters, and one infinite-runner with daily missions and premium currency.
