It's important that you massage your scalp thoroughly while water-washing or co-washing.  I can't totally go without shampoo, but I use both of these methods to go longer between shampooing.  (when I use water only, I still condition the length)

Water only never worked that well for me, I can't stand the very root oil you are talking about.  I have tried just washing with conditioner, that helps to remove scalp oil, and also diluted shampoo, which works best for me.  Sorry I'm not more help!

I was wondering what people do for water only wash.  I did find an old thread from 2006 and read through it but I was wondering if people are still doing water only

I'm curious to know what people do about excessive oil on their roots.  I know I am supposed to work the oil down onto my ends but it's the roots that get me.  my hair looks very oily almost wet.  lucky for me I am a student so I can wear a hat everyday while I adjust

can anyone give me some advice?  thanks
