You seem to be the only one on the whole site that just uses conditioner. That means you are unique! Have a cookie

Mhmm, I'm the same. It's probably in the law somewhere.

It does say on the bootle to use conditioner after the shampoo...

My hairs really thick, so if I don't condition it, I get an afro. One time I didn't use the conditioner I got with my hair dye and I couldn't get a brush through it D: it hurt man.
Hey, afro is awesome! They symbolize spirit and strength! (at least that's what Usopp says)

I only use shampoo. I'd use conditioner too, but for some reason it leaves a residue in my hair that takes forever to wash out. Thermasilk sells a spray conditioner that works great though. Too bad I never remember to buy it when I'm at the store.

I'm not sure myself on what it does, all I know is that it makes my hair smoother, easier to manage and it feels lighter and not as dry.

I have to use both, otherwise the amount of split ends I get could tern into a bizarre afro.

EDIT
Shampoo is better; I go on first and clean the hair! Conditioner is better; I leave the hair silky and smooth! seriously we went this long without quoting this?

Yea, conditioner is intended to both moisturize and help lighten your hair. Mine gets really light and fluffy, THE LION'S MANE!

Shampoo then conditioner.
My hair feels like a tangled net without the conditioner. Then again, I have moderately long hair so I practically have to use it to keep it in check.

I will try to use conditioner, buuuuuuuut.

Don't usually have time to when I am waking up at 5am, to get to work by 5:30am, or maybe cut it close if I do use it and have to be in at 6am.

So shampoo will usually just have to do for me now

I use Shampoo, Conditioner, a protein treatment and then treatment for my ends. I have long hair and I like to look after it to the best I can. When I no longer feel like doing that I'll just chop it. I've been told by hairdressers that it's very healthy.

Shampoo only cleans, you need the conditioner to condition it, the protein treatment helps my hair stay strong (lots of foils) and the other treatment help prevent split ends. You should at least be using the conditioner as well.

For best results, use shampoo and then conditioner.
Otherwise just use shampoo. Your hair will probably suffer, but it'll still be clean.

If you ask me, doing it any other way means you're an idiot. Especially if you use JUST water. That doesn't get anything actually clean.


Getting away from HOW to wash your hair;
Of course, having dreadlocks and some other hairstyles means that you absolutely must make sure not to get your hair wet to any significant degree, so there are a few exceptions to which not washing your hair is acceptable/required.

Also, you hardly have any hair to wash if you're bald now, do you?

I have really thick hair, so I have to use conditioner or else it gets dry/my scalp dries out.

My girlfriend makes fun of my suite-mates (who also use conditioner and whatnot) and I for being so girly, but apparently we're not the only guys doing it, eh?

Plus, nobody's complaining when I get a head rub because she likes how soft my hair is. :p

I've actually heard good things about only washing your hair with water. It gets out the dirt, dead skin, etc. while preserving the hair's natural balance of oils. At the start it gets oily because your hair is so used to being chemical-ed to death by shampoo, but after it adjusts the hair takes on its natural state (which is apparently often-times better looking than with shampoo/conditioner).
