Shampoo

Random title, no?

Well, actually I just read a post on WriterBabu about, umm, bath. Yeah. Bath. So I thought, you know, why not write about shampoo too? Like a cute little sequel thingy.

Anyway I'm dry out of ideas to write about. And you know us writers, how we're the biggest cheaters on earth - when we don't have anything to write about, expect us to come up with the most mundane mediocrity under the sun, cleverly wrapped in mesmerising words. I do it all the time! (Oh don't give me that condescending look. I know you do it too.)

So here goes - Shampoo.

Now I'll be honest here. I am 20 and I STILL don't know how to shampoo my hair. About time, you'd think?

So I thought, maybe, just maybe, there might be some other bubble brains like me, who still haven't figured it out, and we might as well come clean (pun intended!) and share our non-talent.

How do you shampoo your hair?

It can't be a rocket science can it?

You turn on the shower. Damn. The water's too hot. So what do you do? You hop around in the shower with a burned hand here and a burned foot there, doing this weird tribal dance and occasionally making weird noises like "Aieeee" and "Ooh oooohs" (Which might make the people standing outside your bathroom frown and question what you really are doing in there. Been there, done that, man. Creepy.)

And you continue till the water is about just the right cozy temperature of warm. Not hot enough to fry your hair and not cold enough to freeze you to death. Now isn't that just heavenly?

Okay, then you take some shampoo. Use the one that suits your hair... I mean, you know, if your hair is dry (obviously NOT while they are wet, you smartass!) use the one meant for dry hair. If they are oily (if you haven't oiled them previously, duh.) like mine (America could bomb my scalp next, not exaggerating), use the one for oily hair.

If your hair is just perfect (yeah, right! Liar.) then you get to use the one for normal hair! (Whatever is considered normal anyway?)

And then you have those anti-dandruff ones too. But a little tip here - don't use them more than once in a week.

Because "Hey! Use me everyday, I won't make you bald in a week!" .... Said no anti-dandruff shampoo ever.

So there. You rub it in your scalp, and you wash it off. Most of them come with the instructions written at the back, bless them.


Put on some conditioner if it pleases you.

Aaaaand, you're done!

I'm done writing too. Phew.

What was the purpose of this post?

I don't know, man.

You can shampoo however you want to. Or you know what? Don't shampoo. That's cool too unless your hair doesn't smell like the trash I just put out.

Anyway, peace.
