Can i use a conditioner instead of shampoo?

to wash my hair so that it would be more silky? i have thin hair and i want to only use shampoo only twice a week. but would that make my hair oily? wat would make my hair more silky? i heard olive oil is good. thanksCan i use a conditioner instead of shampoo?
using only conditioner will make your hair super greasy and gross looking. shampoo is what's going to give your thin hair volume. I use paul mitchells green tea stuff and it's awesome.Can i use a conditioner instead of shampoo?
Every single person who has answered NO to this question is completely uninformed. Seriously, thousands of women only use ';conditioner'; to wash their hair. You just have to watch ingredients carefully.





Most shampoos contain sodium lauryl sulfate and other harsh detergents which can cause hair to get rough and unruly. There are other surfactants that can be used to clean the hair and scalp effectively. There's an entire movement of women doing this.





I currently use Suave conditioner to wash my hair. It contains a cationic surfactant that works just fine. If you scrub properly, you won't have any problems at all, AND your hair has a better chance at regaining its moisture and pH balance. :)





Good luck - if you go the all-conditioner route, it can be difficult to find the right combination of products to start. Don't get discouraged - NaturallyCurly.com has a great message board too with lots of folks who can give you good advise (even if you're not curly!).
I have the exact problem but i used a little amount of shampoo and then get just a squirt of conditioner and only use on the part away from your head like from the neck down and if you want it to be thicker use herbal essences thickening shampoo trust em it works after about a month your hair will start getting thicker
Nah, you need to use shampoo. I don't know what ethnicity you are or what your hair is like besides just ';thin'; but I would recommend washing it every other day with shampoo, use conditioner after the shampoo, just use a little and put it on the ends, not the roots of the hair, then rinse with cold water for a better shine.
no, conditioner is not a cleaning product. It will make your hair look oily. Shampooing your hair twice a week is fine, but only using conditioner is not a real good idea. Matrix makes a really good shine serum that will help you.
it probably would make your hair oily. maybe just rinse your hair, condition and blow dry. or try using a deep conditioner for fine hair. pure coconut oil is good for a preconditioner and ive heard olive oil is good but ive never tried it
I use shampoo and conditioner one day, then just conditioner the next, then shampoo and conditioner again the next day. If you want your hair shiny, wash it in really cold water. Hope it goes well!!
No way,,,, if you're hair is fine you dont want to use a lot of conditioner at all. just put it on you ends and wash your hair every other day. do two shampoos and a nickel size bit of conditioner. ur hair will look great!
Greasy, greasy, greasy.
you NEED to use shampoo ur hair will get gross if you dont. u could try washing your hair only when its necessary so you dont strip it of its natural oils too often. and u could use a leave in conditioner
Ew. You should use both! Wash your hair three times a week (or every time you sweat) and condition everyday.
HAHA


no you have to use both
no you use both
