The best Shampoos and Toothpastes?

[nippinout]

Someone needs to have a toothpaste that doesn't interfere with the great taste of orange juice.

Umm... no. You actually need to physically brush your teeth to remove the tartar build-up before it turns to plaque.

Mouthwash is like water, so it's not exactly something you can use to brush your teeth with, so that's why there's toothpaste.

Mouthwash is a good fix in the morning to remove breakfast breath and give you a fresh mouth feeling without the time to properly brush your teeth.

you dont rinse your mouth with toothpaste man.

I said what about replacing toothpaste with mouthwash, as in put in mouthwash, then brush teeth with mouthwash still inside...

My mom's friend owns a salon and is always sending me products to try and give her opinion on. Lately I've been using Crew shampo and conditioner for me. I guess its alright and it certainly doesn't smell girly. I honestly can't tell a difference between inexpensive and expensive shampos, but I do have rather short hair.

Dosent orange juice taste bad because its acidic while toothpaste is basic?

My favorite toothpaste is the simply bright from crest.

Dubbleya, what toothpaste is, at its most basic, is a mild abrasive or polish. The main purpose of brushing your teeth is to use the brush to apply said abrasive/polish to basically scrape away plaque and buff up your teeth a little. Of course, nowadays toothpaste has other ingredients for doing other things, but the main idea is still there. Replacing your toothpaste with mouthwash would be like trying to smooth out your kid's pinewood derby car with a box of kleenex because you didn't want to buy sandpaper.

I doubt if I've ever used the same shampoo or the same toothpaste two bottles/tubes in a row, so I guess you could say I don't have a strong preference..

I use plain Head & Shoulders and plain Crest.

I use to get bad dandruff(probobly from never taking off my hat) and tried some fancy shampoo crap that burneed like a mofo due to some Tea Tree extract BS. Ended up going to Head & Shoulders after that and it works just as good or even better then the $30 stuff.

I heard some where that toothpaste is basic to create a hostile evironment that prevents bacteria from growing in your mouth as you sleep. Some bacteria also create acid as waste when they breed which burns away at your teeth, the basicidity (sp?) of the toothpaste helps protect from corrosion aswell.

now we're getting somewhere... Fun facts on toothpaste (and bacteria poo) there guys.

Lets brainstorm some ideal shampoos for guys hair.

Oily: something like those hotel shampoos that really make your hair feel sticky and extra clean.

Normal: Shamppo?

Dry: full dose of conditioner with lemon scented palmade for that "O' Brother where art thou?" George Clooney look

If you like to actually smell, well, like a man, try the Art of Shaving products. Everything is natural, and you feel like a million bucks after you use them.
My wife thinks the sandalwood and lavender stuff smells very masculine and SEXY BABY!
The shampoo is great. Try Tom's of Maine for toothpaste. After you use it you will notice other toothpastes have a bad aftertaste.

The whole time I read this thread I kept thinking about that.


I use whatever I pick up first thats cheap and smells good. As long as I don't have stuff growing in my hair I'm good.

Same kind of think with toothpaste, I usually use Colgate Total, I like the minty flavor.
