Listen, I like my shampoo like I like my man. White, pasty and offensive.

…and they’re both just repackaged Suave®…

In return, Women get to smell like coconuts and vanilla, while we men are relegated to scents like "burnt charcoal and 7 year old engine oil"

There's no laws preventing you from using what you perceive as women's hair care products.

My baldness sufficiently prevents me from using them.

That's true, my butt hair could do with an occasional shampoo. Maybe a fresh style too, I've been wearing it for ages just parted in the middle.

My husband is bald but like to use my nice smelling shampoo on his beard every now and again. Pamper yourself.

Yes, but I think the (true) point was that male-marketed products are always either:

  • Arctic freshness 0°K we'll make you feel like you're naked on an iceberg in the middle of the North Pole

Or:

  • Now you smell like your grandfather! Some wood, musk, and cedar cones

Why is it so and what does it tell of our society and weird expectations? A great deal of men do NOT appreciate this approach, and sure turn to the products marketed for women.

We should either break that insanely entrenched stereotype about "masculine" scents, or better just ditch product gendering altogether.

Yay for men smelling like vanilla and strawberry yoghurt!

95% similarity in ingredients, save for a small amount of extra moisturizer and scenting in the wife's.

I use womens deodorant, not fruity ones but "fresh" ones i guess. Can't stand mens deodorant, reminds me of locker room stank.

If it were possible to have a deodorant that itself had no odor at all, that's what I would choose.

"Unscented" still has a very clear scent.

[-] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

I too prefer unscented, and usually the women's version. Current one I usually use is the thin Tom's of Maine unscented, which I think is the one for women. The thick blue body has the powdery deodorant while the thin white body has the smooth solid.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 14 points 3 days ago

I'm using one that's labeled as "Cobalt". Smdh doesn't smell anything like actual cobalt, what a ripoff

Does nobody use 17 in 1 hair detergent, body wash, conditioner, deoderant, moisturizer, hand soap, shaving cream, beard oil, lip balm, callous remover, hand sanitizer, bubble bath solution, epsom salt, dandruff treatment, cologne, hair gel, and junk defunker anymore?

[-] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago

Don’t forget leather conditioner, rust remover, engine degreaser, paint thinner, weed killer, barbecue charcoal starter, epoxy cure accelerator!

I went to get a massage for the first time. You can have a scent during your massage, so I was like why not? So they listed a huge list of smells and flavors. And one of the scents they had was cedar. Of course I picked that one. The masseuse was immediately like "I would say like 80% of all of the guys that come in here pick cedar." No regrets, it smelled great. Reminded me of woodworking.

Jimmy: "Mane n' Tail." Is this horse shampoo?

Chazz: Yes, it is.

Jimmy: Do you use this stuff on your hair?

Chazz: Uh-huh.

Jimmy: "For a lustrous coat." Does this actually work?

Chazz: You bet your ass it does. It makes my hair shine like Orion's belt...

Same as the shower gel, where there are lots of "flavours" and then some just labelled "MEN" with no indication of what they smell of.^[Engine oil and Swarfega]

10-in-one from hair to car

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 33 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Then the fuckers start putting more perfumes in it.

Goddamn, that pisses me off. Had to find another AIO shampoo that didn't make my eyes burn when I used it. Used Pert for 20+ years until some marketing asshat forgot who the demographic was.

From your hair, to your car, to your industrial kiln, Shimpoo will make it shine.

In college we just used a communal refill sized jug of softsoap.

[-] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago

They forgot to add a list of ingredients that makes it sound like it is a fruit salad.

Shimpoo also doubles as all purpose lubricant, engine oil, degreaser, pipe declogger, raticide, barbecue sauce, hair pomade, and SPF 50+ sunscreen.
