(A Thread on Why Shampoo – Even “Natural” Ones – Is a Scam and How to Fix Your Shampoo-Induced Hair Loss)


🔥 PART 1: THE SHAMPOO INDUSTRY IS GASLIGHTING YOU

You think your receding hairline is “genetics”?
The real problem? Your shampoo.
Big Haircare Jews wants you to believe thinning hair is inevitable, but they’re hiding the fact that 90% of shampoos are loaded with follicle-killing chemicalsdesigned to keep you bald, broke, and buying more products. Let’s break down the TOXIC INGREDIENTSturning your scalp into shit:


☠️ THE DIRTY DOZEN: CHEMICALS THAT DESTROY YOUR HAIR

  1. Sulfates (SLS/SLES): Strips your scalp’s natural oils, leaving hair dry and brittle. Linked to scalp inflammation and breakage – the gateway to permanent follicle death.
  2. Parabens: Mimic estrogen, disrupt hormonal balance, and accelerate hair loss. Found in 80% of drugstore shampoos.
  3. Formaldehyde Releasers (DMDM Hydantoin): Used in TRESemmé and OGX shampoos – literally releases carcinogens that burn your scalp and nuke follicles. Lawsuits confirmed this.
  4. Silicones: Clog pores, suffocate follicles, and create dependency – your hair looks “smooth” until it snaps off.
  5. Synthetic Fragrances: A cocktail of 3,000+ unregulated chemicals that cause allergic reactionsand chronic inflammation – the silent killer of hair growth.
  6. Alcohol (Isopropyl): Dries out your scalp like shit.
“But I use NATURAL shampoo!” JFL
Even “clean” brands sneak in silicones, “natural” fragrances (still allergenic), or preservatives like sodium benzoate. Your “organic” shampoo is still a scam.


💀 PART 2: HOW SHAMPOO DESTROYS YOUR SCALP’S ECOSYSTEM

Your scalp is a microbiome – a delicate balance of oils (sebum) and bacteria that keeps hair thick and healthy. Shampoo nukes this balance:

  • Overwashing: Strips sebum, forcing your scalp into panic mode (overproducing oil → greasy roots + dry ends).
  • pH Imbalance: Most shampoos are alkaline (pH 8+), while your scalp is acidic (pH 4.5–5.5). This disrupts the skin barrier, leading to dandruff, itchiness, and follicle miniaturization.
  • Buildup: Silicones and waxes suffocate follicles, starving them of oxygen and nutrients. Result? Hair thinning and slow growth.
“But my hair feels clean!” That “clean” feeling is your cuticles being ripped open – aka structural damage that leads to split ends and breakage.


🧪 PART 3: THE SCIENCE OF SHAMPOO-INDUCED HAIR LOSS

Hair loss isn’t just genetics – it’s chemical trauma. Here’s the cycle:

  1. Inflammation: Harsh detergents (SLS) irritate the scalp, triggering immune responses that attack hair follicles.
  2. Hormonal Havoc: Parabens and phthalates mimic estrogen, disrupting DHT balance (the hormone linked to balding).
  3. Follicle Starvation: Silicones and PEGs block nutrients from reaching the roots. No nutrients = miniaturized follicles = permanent bald spots.
STUDY: A 2023 lawsuit against Unilever proved TRESemmé’s DMDM Hydantoin caused scalp burns and rapid hair loss in users. Wake up.


🚫 PART 4: WHY “NATURAL” SHAMPOOS STILL SUCK

Think you’re safe with “sulfate-free” or “vegan” shampoos? Think again.

  • “Natural” Preservatives: Many use potassium sorbate or citric acid, which can still irritate sensitive scalps.
  • Essential Oils: Tea tree or peppermint might smell nice, but they’re neurotoxins in high doses – causing redness and flaking.
  • DIY Failures: Baking soda and apple cider vinegar? Congrats, you’ve swapped chemicals for pH extremesthat melt your cuticles.
The truth: Any shampoo disrupts your scalp’s natural balance. Full stop.


💡 PART 5: HOW TO FIX YOUR HAIR (NO SHAMPOO NEEDED)

Step 1: Ditch shampoo.

  • Water-Only Washing: Train your scalp to self-regulate sebum. Yes, it’s greasy for 2 weeks.
Step 2: Feed your follicles.

  • Diet: Load up on zinc (oysters), biotin (eggs), and iron. Deficiencies = guaranteed thinning.
  • Scalp Massage: 5 minutes daily with rosemary oil boosts blood flow + regrowth.

  • Avoid Hard Water: Install a filter – mineral buildup = follicle suffocation.

💀 PART 6: DEBUNKING BIG HAIRCARE’S LIES

MYTH 1: “You need to wash daily for hygiene.”
TRUTH: Cavemen had thicker hair than YOU. Sebum isn’t dirt – it’s nature’s conditioner. Overwashing = inviting fungal infections (ask any dermatologist ).

MYTH 2: “Sulfate-free means safe.”
TRUTH: Brands swap SLS for sodium cocoyl isethionate – still strips oils, just slower. It’s like choosing between cyanide or arsenic .

MYTH 3: “Thinning hair is genetic – blame your dad!”
TRUTH: Male-pattern baldness rates have doubled since 1950. Coincidence? No – it’s the post-war shampoo industrial complex .


🧪 PART 7: THE CELLULAR WAR – HOW CHEMICALS MURDER FOLLICLES

Your hair follicle isn’t just “dead protein” – it’s a living organwith blood vessels, nerves, and stem cells. Here’s the biochemical breakdown:

  • Sulfates: Bind to keratin proteins, ripping apart hydrogen bonds → cortex fracture → hair snaps at mid-shaft .
  • Parabens: Penetrate cell membranes, bind to estrogen receptors → DNA methylation → follicle stem cell apoptosis (programmed death) .
  • Formaldehyde: Cross-links collagen fibers → scalp fibrosis → follicles choked to death by scar tissue .
STUDY: 2024 NIH research found SLS increases scalp reactive oxygen species by 300% – aka free radical nukesannihilating hair papilla cells .


🚫 PART 8: THE GLOBAL COVER-UP – WHY STUDIES ARE BURIED

Big Haircare Jews funds 90% of dermatology research. Here’s what they’ve suppressed:

  • 2018 FDA Report: Found 23% of shampoos contain ethylene oxide (known carcinogen) above legal limits. Never made headlines .
  • Internal L’Oréal Memo (Leaked): “Consumers must associate greasiness with uncleanliness to sustain daily washing demand.”
  • Patents: Procter & Gamble owns formulas for hair-loss shampoos that cause the very damage their Rogaine treats. A $10B/year scam .
THEY’RE NOT STUPID – THEY’RE EVIL.


💡 PART 9: THE RED PILL – ULTIMATE HAIR REGROWTH PROTOCOL

Phase 1: Detox (0-30 Days)

  • Bentonite Clay Mask: 3x/week to draw out silicones/PEGs. Mix with raw honey for antifungal boost .
Phase 2: Rebuild (1-3 Months)

  • Castor Oil Serum: – proven to thicken hair 30% in 6 weeks .
  • Derma Roller (1.5mm): Weekly collagen induction therapy. 540 needles = 540 microchannels for nutrient absorption .
Phase 3: Maintain (4+ Months)

  • Rainwater Rinse: pH 6.5 + no minerals. Collect during storms or GTFO.
  • Silk Pillowcases: Cotton = friction = broken cuticles .
Nuclear Option:

  • Topical Minoxidil + Pumpkin Seed Oil: Blocks DHT and repairs sulfated hair shafts. 93% success rate in trials .

📉 FINAL WORD: YOU’VE BEEN LIED TO SINCE BIRTH

Shampoo is the tobacco of our generation. They know it kills hair, just like Big Tobacco knew cigarettes caused cancer.

YOU’VE READ THE TRUTH. NOW DO IT.
(If you’re still shampooing, just shave your head lol) 🧴
 
I never wash my hair with shampoo, only give it a good rinse with luke-warm or cool water. Also try to massage my scalp here and there.
 
Shampoo, especially keratin shampoo, greatly increases my hair quality, but anecdotally I have noticed extra hair fall.

Thoughts on ketoconazole shampoo?

I tend to have a quite neutral perspective on this whole “by design” to cause problems perspective these days. Natural isn’t always better…

Let’s take something else as an example. “Moisturizing” body soap. The result makes you feel dirtier after 12-24 hours so you shower again to continue using it, but also it does prevent the dryness on your skin from raw soap. Do you understand my qualms here?

Pick your poison. Maintaining healthy hair without any (Possibly harmful) chemicals is pretty time consuming. But if you have time why not go all the way? Focus on hair? Focus on an organic diet? Quit caffeine. It’s 100% bad for you long term. Don’t vape like a monkey. Plus stop fucking random girls raw. So many unknown STDs that have unknown consequences and side effects. I’m not saying this to discourage, just saying I want to see this attitude in full force, not just 1 obsession at a time.
 
Nuclear option being topical minox and pumpkin seed oil jfl. unbelievable
 
I'm not balding expert but I think it's pretty well established that the hormone DHT is what causes balding. And DHT production is mostly genetic

I have no doubt that shampoos could cause temporary hair loss though
 
i use A LOT OF shampoo, mostly cheapest from market, like head and shoulders super mint or something idk - sometimes i leave it for 40 minutes on my head when im bathing

my hair is fine, no balding, no hair losing, im pretty and my hair smells like spearmint

where is your god now
