      Same. The puffy makes it impossible and I used to schedule my showers around events knowing I wouldn't want to be seen the day after a shower. I just use conditioner every few days. I've since learned that using conditioner to clean your hair is called "co-washing" and I'm probably not going back to shampooing. I'm hoping I can convince the hair studio not to shampoo me when I go for my post quarantine hair cut.

        Another fluffy poodle here... I was just thinking of trying to eliminate shampoo from my life. Not just for the health of my hair, but also the environment with all the empty shampoo bottles going in the trash. Maybe I'll just wash it occasionally with a shampoo bar as an alternative. So you just wash it with water only?

          I used a shampoo bar for a while, but I didn't like how they made my scalp feel. I've gone back to liquid shampoos, but don't use very often. Maybe once a week, maybe, I might condition, but I don't do that very often either.

            i only use my anti psyoretic pine tar shampoo and that only very sparingly for my scalp issues,there is also a pine tar soup for the skin issues,much better than the coal tar stuff

              I went no poo for a couple years, just used water. I had to scrub a lot and never felt like I got enough of the oils out of my hair. So I started making a hair concoction. I mixed baking soda and cornstarch in equal parts and added soone vanilla extract and essential oils. That has worked really well. And I've heard if that makes your hair too dry, you can rinse with apple cider vinegar.
              We are what we are. Nothing more, nothing less. There is good and evil among every kind of people. It's the evil among us who rule now. -Anne Bishop, Daughter of the Blood

              I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
              It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
              Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.
              -Jacqueline Carey, Naamah's Curse

                  A lot of the women in my homesteading groups are hitting hoarding mode as winter heads our way (most of the women in these groups are from U.S.). They are stocking up on dry goods, canning water(yes water!) and meat. They had all settled down after spring and as summer rolled in lots of planning for a normal canning season and then bam two days ago a thread was started about a bad feeling and being prepared for a very bad winter. It's interesting to read.

                    First full day of online lectures - this is going to be a very long semester.

                    I'm a sad lad.

                      You guys are for sure going to spend the whole semester online? I very much enjoy seeing how other countries are handling covid.

                        Yeah, the whole semester at least, possibly the entire year.

                          The school-at-home thing around here seems to involve a lot of phys. ed. The little kids on my street have been out riding bikes, etc., on and off all day. The 2 who are in high school are home M-W-F, and yesterday they were in and out, too. I don't get it.

                            I wish mine involved phys ed.

                            I am not 100% online, because I have field labs, but yesterday was six straight hours without a break of online learning, and today was 3 hours, but then I went to work for 5 hours after.

                            Yesterday, I had classes from 9-4, a physio appointment, I went to the gym, and I studied from 8-11;30pm. Today, I had class from 9-12, work from 12-5 which was manual labour for the most part, and I've been studying since 7. It's 11.

                            It's week one, dang it.

                              (I was kind of being sarcastic - there's a family on my street that claims to home-school, but they don't really. The two teens at the other house are just getting away with whatever they can.) I hope your routine gets easier to handle as time goes by!

                                If I find myself giving extended tech support and training to the local Catholic parish, I'm going to find someone to bill for my time. I don't like them enough for this to be entertaining long term and there are hard limits to how far I'll help on behalf of family.
                                life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                                Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

                                "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                                John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

                                "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."
