A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Right! I actually worked at P&G in the dawn dish soap division for a while. The same ingredients that go into the dish soap also go into the body and hair soaps. There are some different additives, concentrations, and flavors but it's all the same based ingredients. Also my entire body is covered in skin and hair so what does it matter?

Exactly! Although I find dishwashing detergent dries out your skin a lot more, so I wouldn't try using that lol. Shampoo has a pH closer to your skin than a bar of soap, so is really quite well suited for it.
