Same here.  Up to age 23 I used soap and shampoo regularly and usually had bad dandruff and stinky hair.  Then I quit shampoo and soap completely, and also improved my diet, and I have barely had any dandruff at all in the 12 years since then, and my hair smells OK according to my family who are not inclined to flatter me in this respect.

I do wash my hair with just water, and brush it, every week to few weeks.

our silly ad for this

three hour long discussion with four engineers - the consensus is that now is not a good time to go to college

For me, a 96% solutions was to go poo-less.  

Next step - while on a different health journey it was suggested that dandruff is caused by what you eat.  

And the last bit, again, for a different thing, it was suggested that I needed to have more minerals through the skin.  Castor oil topically was suggested.  The idea was that i would absorb minerals and the like at night.  But man that stuff is sticky.  So - no way.  .... until i got this little cotton sleep hat.  https://amzn.to/3QlCZL8  - i put the oil on my noggin, cover with the hat and wake up with horrible bed head.    It does seem like the oil is 90% gone in the morning.  And a poo-less shower seems to take a bit more away.      Da oil https://amzn.to/3QlCZL8     I might do this every week or two.  My guess is that at some point i will stop completely.

Zero danders.

Mostly, I enjoy not smearing the dandruff shampoo goo on my head - even the highest quality stuff struck me as toxic.  It has been more than 15 years now.  I feel like it is one of the smartest things i have ever done.  

I also like that my daily shower is about a minute long rather than ten minutes long.  

The idea of ever using shampoo feels brutally unhealthy.  My current path feels extremely healthy.  I am so glad i made the change.  

I will even go so far to say:   i wonder if the anti-dandruff shampoos actually CAUSE dandruff!
