Lather, rinse, repeat — anyone do this?
Jump to Comments
Recently, I had the luck to shower alone.
Hohoho, you say, grrrrrrrrrr and meeeeooooww!!
No, it’s not that. Try a 4 year old. A water-loving one.
My point is this time I had time to think, time to read. (so here I am writing; just ask Virginia Wolff about that)
See, no one can say I am not a voracious reader. I read shampoo labels and guess what?
They don’t say “lather, rinse, repeat” anymore. Our four didn’t, anyway.
‘Sup with that? A truer money-maker I’ve never seen: use this product, not once, but TWICE!!
So, my question to you is: DO YOU? Lather, rinse, repeat, that is.

Who has time to repeat? Besides, if I repeat, my hair is completely unmanageable. That’s waaaaay too much conditioner for my thin, straight hair.

Sadly, I no longer have enough hair to justify a repeat.

What’s the point of repeating, anyway?

I don’t get the whole repeating thing, either. As I recall, for most of human history people never washed their hair. Now we’ve got to do it twice in the same shower? Ick.

Sometimes my kid needs to repeat a few times, but me? Naw, I figure if I didn’t get it right the first time, why the heck would I try to screw it up a second time?

sometimes, my dog needs to repeat a few times….. me, post-childbirth, between losing hair and pulling it out, I’m lucky to have anything to wash!

I’m impressed that you can still read the back of the bottles in the shower (no glasses). It dries it out to much if I wash it twice. I used to when I was younger, oiler, and with a much thicker and longer head of hair. At least as you get older you can’t see the changes as easily.

Damn it. Now I need to remember to read my shampoo bottles when I get home.
I usually lather . . . determine if I need more lather . . . if yes then lather some more . . . repeat these steps . . . then rinse. I’ve never repeated the whole process that I can recall.
Lather, repeat, rinse is what mine *should* say.

alright Will, read and report back!
I don’t get the lather, repeat deal. Must be some extra gentle, nonsudsing, organic stuff…?? Or just vinegar? Does that lather…?
