Water only washing, WO, 2018

[truepeacenik]

Your present routine is pretty close to water-only. The goal is to avoid washing out all of the body's natural conditioner (sebum). Water-only washing, diluting shampoo, and stretching washes all have this effect.

Succinct!
For me, dilution or stretching washes work moderately better than WO.

I've just made my way through this thread. I'm curious.

I think I might give it a try. Part of the reason is because I've just learnt how to use a BBB section by section. It felt really nice.

Most of the time I want to shampoo (CV shampoo bar) because my scalp itches and I get a oily-skin build-up. But now I can use my BBB to help take care of my scalp.

I'll think I'll start by alternating in a WO wash

Edit: has anyone else started this way? Essentially stretching out their conventional washes? Or is advised to jump straight to WO washing.
