I look like Ronald McDonald seriously.  I also suffer from seborrhea, however...Nizoral keeps it WELL in check, expensive, probably giving me cancer...but no flakes.

I go for the heavy conditioners, right now it is &quot;Yes to Carrots&quot;.  I usually style with John Freida frizz ease wind down cream, or gel if it is REALLY sticky.  Dr. Bronner's soap is VERY cheap, and only leaves your hair smelling like...hair.  I'm a person VERY sensitive to smells, I smell EVERYTHING.  I can tell what kind of perfume a woman is wearing if I've smelled it on someone close to me, and what kind of a shampoo a girl uses if my wife or an x-gf used the same.

I've always been one of those people who showers every day, shampoos every day, and conditions every day...Which results in about $150 a year in shampoo costs.  I can distinctly recall when I started using shampoo (when I was a kid), and how my hair suddenly became dry and brittle, and the difference adding conditioner made, so all of this was like an 'aha' to me.<br/><br/>For the basics: <a class="plime" href="/redir.p?http://babyslime.livejournal.com/174054.html#how" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">No poo</a><br/><br/>I'm trying it out.
