I remember reading about this guy who decided stop using soap back in February 2010. Well not ALL soaps, but mainly shampoos and other body-lathering substances whilst showering. It intrigued me. Then he updated about his experiences about a year later, and now I think I'm gonna try it.
I took my first soapless shower this morning. I used a washcloth to scrub my dirty parts, and only used some shaving gel as lubricant to shave my face and head (I recently shaved off all of my hair because I was in a mood). To be perfectly clear - I'm not against soap in general. It's good for cleaning dirty hands, and lets face it, you don't want to be handling food with hands that have been stuffed who-knows-where into who-knows-what. I DO have a problem with those so-called antibacterial soaps, that kill '99.9%' of germs.
Bacteria multiply exponentially, people. It does not take that long for something to be completely coated in germs. But I'd rather put a germ that my own immune system can kill into my system than one that has made it past that 0.1%.
But I digress. Trying this out. We'll see how things go after a week or so.
