Since when is bathing a “modern-day cultural” thing? It is ancient (check out the showers found in Mohenjo-daro excavations) and has always been a part of everyday life in many civilizations. What is new, is the crap that we use to do so, and lack of moisturizing properly afterward. Indians have been using kitchen-made soaps, scrubs and oils to do so for millennia.

I just discovered this blog. Lots of good info here. I will read more. I agree that shampoos are very hard on your skin, but so can store bought “soap”, which isn’t really soap, it’s actually detergent.. I make handmade soap and it is not drying to the skin. I suggest everybody give handmade soap a try. You’ll be amazed.

Unfortunately, many body washes are only slightly modified versions of shampoos.

As long as you use a moisturizer, there should be no problem using shampoo as a body wash.

I don’t think that I have ever used shampoo as a body wash, maybe on one or too times when being on holiday but I do tend to stick to what works on my hair and body separately. So I will stick to shampoo for my hair and soap and body wash for my body.

Are there some shampoos that are better than others, though? I have been using a locally-made, all natural shampoo as my shampoo, body wash, face wash, etc. and my skin and hair have never looked better. I don’t even use moisturizer or conditioner.
