The no-poo (no shampoo) movement is very real and definitely works for many people (dependant on hair type and oil secretions). Basically, once you stop washing away your natural oils daily, the production normalizes and then a regular rinse with water and occasionally something like diluted soap, lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.

I've met them, I was one, I know them. You wouldn't know unless they told you.

The only people saying you should use shampoo daily are the shampoo makers. Most people can get away with once a week.

You can also clean your hair with conditioner or even rose water in between instead of soaps or vinegar. See the curlygirl subreddit for details about safer hair products that won't mess up curl patterns
