And if the internet told you that hot Russain MILF's are waiting for you and that you can grow your penis 6 inches in four weeks, all you had to do was send your bank pin to a Nigerian Prince, would you do it?

nahh its not really high risk for me to do this... if i start stinking so bad people cant be around me i can just start using soap again... although i dont think there will be a problem... i still use deodorant and stuff and the water actually seems to wash away BO. if those articles werent trolling its supposed to be better (soap fucks up your sebaceous glands and whatnot)

Actually soap was originally only used as a disinfectant and for removing oily substances. So if your skin/hair gets greasy then soap up, if not then you can get away with it.

well if you dont work with oil the excess oil produced from your skin can generally be rinsed away i think. so yeah basically only gotta use soapy water on cuts and whatnot. and hands too, so you dont like get sick

Yeah, my mom said for me to try it, apparently our hair produces stuff that naturally cleans are hair. Shampoo/soap companies are full of crap. (Although I still use bars to lather of course) but other then that I don't use any shampoo :L Seems like a waste of money and effort. I only had acne where the shampoo touched. It's like this...

Soap companies make a product that doesn't do anything but creates pretty smelling bubbles and has horrid ingredients (things that can cause cancer etc) just to give you acne so you buy one of their other products that "treats" acne but really do nothing more then be a placebo that sometimes helps. But usually is nothing more then not using soap the day you use the acne cleaner (Aka if you are like me and shower every other day.) Seems kinda ridiuclous, to think we are being sold this bull shit by marketing propaganda. Although it doesn't surprise me.

The Axe shampoos work. Let me put it to you this way; if Axe is making something that is design to not work, then other company are doing a better job at making crappy products.

Wtf is soap and shampoo?

I might have some traumatizing childhood memories, but I do not have those two words in my commonly used dictionary...

The only time I would suggest using Axe anything is if your odor is really, really bad. Which can only be destroyed by the stinky axe crap. I think there was only one thing Axe had that smelled alright, it was a rip off of Old spice's Pure sport. *shrugs* I don't think any shampoo do anymore then be smelly and CAUSE problems, not fix them. Aka Dandruff, acne etc. Dad's had Dandruff for years, stopped using the shampoo's that were trying to get rid of it and guess what? No more dandruff.
MERP It's a lie I tells you.


@Suraru It's a cleaning product that humans decided to use on their body. Causing cancers and god knows what else just because they can't deal with looking bad when they go out to get their big macs. XD

To be fair, there are many acne products that work, but aren't intended for cases of mild acne, only cystic acne.

The acne you're talking about is the occasional pimple. The acne I'm talking about is cysts completely covering the face.
