I have enjoyed reading this thread, very interesting. I have wanted to try this method as I've heard good things. I have naturally frizzy hair and have recently discovered its the sulphates in the shampoo. I don't hair straighten anymore so have been experimenting with ways to keep the frizz down. Conditioner only worked a treat for me but after a few weeks I noticed an increase in shedding (so not for people prone to hair loss). Apparently it loosens the hair shaft. I found a great sulphate free shampoo in the Bodyshop (Rainforest) which was fantastic but expensive. I tried diluting sulphate shampoo which works a bit. I'm now on son of morris savers baby shampoo (11p) I still get a tiny bit of frizz but massively reduced.

Another great find is a generic brand of dry shampoo from H"bargains (74p). I usually use Batiste on my fringe but have turned to this cheap version which is better because it has such a fine spray )t'

I'm thinking this summer might be a great time to try this no shampoo business :-D

I too have naturally curly hair with frizzy tendencies (when I was small I used to get teased mercilessly because my hair grew outwards instead of downwards!); it is also very very dry, especially at the ends. So I was worried that going shampooless might make things worse. To my surprise it hasnt and I'm loving the new regime.
