48% less hog fat? Shrinkflation strikes again.
Not my shimpoo :(
The bastards are taking away my damn shampoo and I’m furious!
nothing to see here :)
Seriously. Where can I get that shampoo that just pure hog fat?
But at least Chimp poo.
Listen, I like my shampoo like I like my man. White, pasty and offensive.
negging works for shampoos
Shame-poo
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen an iFunny watermark.
Same tbh
In return, Women get to smell like coconuts and vanilla, while we men are relegated to scents like “burnt charcoal and 7 year old engine oil”
There’s no laws preventing you from using what you perceive as women’s hair care products.
My baldness sufficiently prevents me from using them.
There’s always butt hair.
That’s true, my butt hair could do with an occasional shampoo. Maybe a fresh style too, I’ve been wearing it for ages just parted in the middle.
I like a nice French braid in mine
There is always butt hair…
My husband is bald but like to use my nice smelling shampoo on his beard every now and again. Pamper yourself.
Well, baldness also requires care. A shampoo will be fine for your head-skin. Also, moisturise. Especially important for people who tend to have dry skin like me. There aren’t many good moisturisers for men around though. (At least none which I found good so far.) So, moisturisers marketed towards women it is.
And if it smells like peach, roses and aloe vera paired with coconuts, even better. If your girlfriend/wife likes to smell herself that way, you can bet she would also like to smell your floral skin-desert.
Easy, it’s the more expensive ones.
Shea Moisture products score very high in the curly girl ratings scale and you can pick them up at walgreens for not much more than old spice hair products.
it is more expensive but only like 25% more and the quality difference is huge.
I switched and my hair is sooooooo soft now.
what you perceive as
Sometimes it says straight on the box “women’s shampoo” lol
What does that mean, exactly though? Will it make a man sick if he uses it? Or is it just a way for a company to appeal to a certain customer who believes men and women are too different to enjoy similar things?
Marketing, I suppose. Or just old custom from a time when gender roles were more strict. Maybe both
If the man gets his hair really dirty, like farm dirty with diesel and moly grease and itchy chaff bits, then it means it probably doesn’t have what it takes to do the job.
My wife bought endless shampoos, I tried them for sport and none ever impressed me. Our hard water laughs at fancy shampoos and soaps.
I always told her to forget it and use my big jug of Pert. A classic that says something on the back like “Pert wasn’t designed to waste your time and money. Pert was designed to get your hair clean” but she was sure there was something wrong with it because it was only 5 bucks.
Finally one day she gave it a try and has used Pert ever since. It made her hair smooth and soft, it even washes moly grease out and it smells “fine”, men’s shampoo is the winner IMO
And now my shower is so tidy with only one jug of shampoo
But what about that makes it “men’s” shampoo, chemically? Do women never need to wash grease out of their hair?
I understand you’re point. I’m just reiterating that the formula is needlessly gendered. “Shampoo for hard water and heavy duty cleaning” just doesn’t sell in our version of socialized society I guess.
Actually come to think of it, I don’t think Pert is actually gendered. But everyone knows it’s a “man’s shampoo”, because it isn’t actively marketed as a “women’s shampoo”… Yeah, pretty stupid, isn’t it.
I’ve always thought of Pert as non-gendered. In fact, that’s what my mom bought for the family in the 70’s.
I remember the green gel.
My regular shampoo is Malibu C Hard Water Wellness, it is not too harsh and works so well in our water. Not Pert cheap but can get it for around $30 a liter usually and that lasts me a looong time. I love that stuff. Doesn’t dry out my hair, does clean and rinses clean.
I mean, I do, despite being bald. But its still quite jarring how much worse products for men smell.
“products for men” are made up nonsense from companies who are trying to profit off of people’s insecurities.
We have been deeply conditioned as American consumers, but I’m sick of it! Fuck marketing. Fuck gender roles.
I mean that is great and obvious and all but it is completely the case that they are women’s products. They are on all the boxes, ads and testimonials. In the women’s aisle.
You have two separate aisles for men’s and women’s shampoo? Do you live in Saudi Arabia? In the rest of the world they’re right next to each other.
In Germany (dm), they have a separate isle for men‘s products, and „normal“ (less gendered) products everywhere else. Kinda weird.
What a weird generalization to make. Maybe you’re referring to grocery stores, that have a small selection of beauty/health products.
My local Target here in the US (CA) was recently renovated to expand the body care section of the store, and now has two large distinct sections that obviously cater to specific genders:
The men’s section (deodorant, hair care, face wash, shaving supplies, etc.) is set apart by “wood” flooring, dark wooden display tables, and a kind of minimalist atmosphere. Several aisles away, the women’s section (hair care, makeup, face wash, nail care, etc.) is bright and colorful and chock-full of product signage.
Lol I just checked target. You’re right. I guess I never get the “men’s shampoo”, mainly because it’s low quality with a crappy “wood” fragrance. Of course women’s deodorant is a rip-off too. Better to just look up the brand you like.
Yeah we have an aisle with typically male hygiene and beauty products and another with typically female products.
Very sorry that your weird world view doesnt correspond to reality.
gonna smell like that anyway.
Seriously. My goals today are to change my oil and grill some chicken.
And I’m all out of of oil and chicken…
I don’t mind swapping the vehicle shop for the wood shop. I often walk in the house after a long day smelling very lightly of oak.
Do you have something against 7 year old engine oil?
Anything less than 10 years didn’t have enough time to ripen.
1965 chateau de Castrol. Very good harvest, that year.
What’s funny is that I’m now at the point of using bar soap as my “shampoo”, but the store currently only has heavily scented bar soap, so I do actually smell like 🍑 and 🍊.
That doesn’t work here. Natural soap, saponified fats, causes soap scum in hard water. If it puts a mineral coating on your tub, it will do the same to your hair.
Yeah I just use bar soap and I’ve got fairly long hair. Works well enough as long as you’re not too aggressive with it.
I love the tar smell tbh
* Can not legally be called “shampoo”
Ah, a sham-shampoo.
Sham-shampoo is better than sham-poo.
At least it’s not chimpoo
I use womens deodorant, not fruity ones but “fresh” ones i guess. Can’t stand mens deodorant, reminds me of locker room stank.
reminds me of locker room stank
I wonder why
IMO people should just use medical (smelless) deodorant, as smell is subjective, so there is a smaller chance to annoy someone.
But what if smelling like earl grey makes me happy?
I’m using one that’s labeled as “Cobalt”. Smdh doesn’t smell anything like actual cobalt, what a ripoff
It had better at least be blue.
Lol, jokes on us they’re all blue, cobalt or not
I don’t use deodorant with aluminum and parabens. Today I prefer to use a solid stick deodarant made from magnesium and other components
Does cobalt have some particular smell?
I don’t know but I think a deodorant with cobalt doesn’t seem like a “healthy” thing to put under the armpits lol
I was just joking, I don’t know what cobalt smells like. Unfortunately I don’t think it actually includes any cobalt. That would’ve been metal as fuck
That would’ve been metal as fuck
*Transition Metal as fuck
It’s not even partially radioactive
If it were possible to have a deodorant that itself had no odor at all, that’s what I would choose.
“Unscented” still has a very clear scent.
I too prefer unscented, and usually the women’s version. Current one I usually use is the thin Tom’s of Maine unscented, which I think is the one for women. The thick blue body has the powdery deodorant while the thin white body has the smooth solid.
I want gunpowder or sawdust scents.
Cool Sport Rush
Let’s not forget Barb Wire and New Yacht.
Sharknado Impact
I’d buy that.
Thanks, have edited. Somebody did tell me that ages ago, but I’d forgotten!
I have no idea what’s supported where, but the client I use doesn’t do anything with the

Does nobody use 17 in 1 hair detergent, body wash, conditioner, deoderant, moisturizer, hand soap, shaving cream, beard oil, lip balm, callous remover, hand sanitizer, bubble bath solution, epsom salt, dandruff treatment, cologne, hair gel, and junk defunker anymore?
Don’t forget leather conditioner, rust remover, engine degreaser, paint thinner, weed killer, barbecue charcoal starter, epoxy cure accelerator!
In a pinch, it can also clean windows.
Does it work on Linux? If so I think if could take off on Lemmy
Yes, but it’s a snap.
Lol no serious Linux user bathes
Only if it has at least 93 octane rating and no less than 40% alcohol content.
Out here in hard water country we just call that “Dove”
Seriously if you’re looking for a soap that just plain works in ANY water and doesn’t leave your skin feeling like it shrank a size, a good old bar of Dove is the answer.
All one God! Dilute! Dilute! Exceptions eternally? NONE!
10-in-one from hair to car
From your hair, to your car, to your industrial kiln, Shimpoo will make it shine.
Keep your shampoo away from my kiln. You’ll wreck the heating elements.
Then the fuckers start putting more perfumes in it.
Goddamn, that pisses me off. Had to find another AIO shampoo that didn’t make my eyes burn when I used it. Used Pert for 20+ years until some marketing asshat forgot who the demographic was.
I went to get a massage for the first time. You can have a scent during your massage, so I was like why not? So they listed a huge list of smells and flavors. And one of the scents they had was cedar. Of course I picked that one. The masseuse was immediately like “I would say like 80% of all of the guys that come in here pick cedar.” No regrets, it smelled great. Reminded me of woodworking.
Sounds nice (the massage, not necessarily that particular scent). I’ve never gotten a massage before but I’ve been thinking about getting a couples massage with my wife. There’s so many massage places though. How do I choose one?
chose the one nearest to you or the most convenient to get to (maybe a place that’s along your daily commute). If you like it, kepp going there. If the result is unsatisfactory, chose another one next time.
I don’t think you’ve seen the massage parlors near me

U r supporter of sex trafficking?
I am not sure how you got that from my comment.
Reviews, I did a couples massage with my wife. It was my first time. I would highly recommend.
Call around, ask for prices and availability. The good ones are usually booked up, though often not terribly expensive.
Also ask if they take insurance; most of the shady rub and tug places do not, but the legit ones sure do
Jimmy: “Mane n’ Tail.” Is this horse shampoo?
Chazz: Yes, it is.
Jimmy: Do you use this stuff on your hair?
Chazz: Uh-huh.
Jimmy: “For a lustrous coat.” Does this actually work?
Chazz: You bet your ass it does. It makes my hair shine like Orion’s belt…

I used cat shampoo on more than one occasion simply because the human shampoo was out of reach.
Cat shampoo? Oh the one with blood marks all over it. I see.
I know I know that show, but I can’t remember what it is…
It’s Ranma 1/2 (and for anyone who didn’t get the joke, the character’s name is literally “Shampoo”)
They forgot to add a list of ingredients that makes it sound like it is a fruit salad.
I’m convinced my wife’s shampoo could be considered a full meal of you drink it.
Maybe a full serving of fruits and veggies, but there’s no protein in there, at least not what we mean when we talk about protein in nutrition. Probably not many carbs either. I would also suspect that the rest of the product is undigestable, if not straight up toxic
