interesting article. scary thought. cool if Maarten could be our guinea pig. and the nature would benefit from less chemicals...

yeah i want to know of it works. i believe it can. And it would be healthier. But i want someone else to try it first ;-)

Wow, actually very interesting. This is his update after a year, on boingboing: http://boingboing.net/2011/01/04/i-havent-used-soap-i.html

@Maarten: sorry, but your link doesn't do it. Found it searching 'i-havent-used-soap'...

...and also interesting.
Maarten, no matter if this idea wins or not maybe you could try it for us. I promise I wont complain about your smell for one month. :-)

Hehe, maybe I will, I was thinking about it today. I'm just afraid of the first couple of weeks. But maybe i'll start enjoying being able to create my own snow...

this really sounds inspiring! i might just try this, but maarten, i await your experiences (and i might try smell you when i see you)

but well, don't stop showering, just stop using soap. At least, that's where the seanbonner article is about.

That's true! It doesn't say anything about not showering! pff... Makes a lot more sense since I can't imagine you won't smell like a dog after not showering for a month. But if you just wash yourself with water I guess you could stay kinda clean.

Wow nice article. As I remember now, as a child/teenager I never used showergel or soap. (did wash my hair). Can't remember why I started using it. I guess because everyone was using it... what a crappy reason. I am definitely gonna try this. Love the feeling of freshly washed hair to much to let go of that one.

yeah sorry guys I meant, stop using soaps and shampoos. of course you should shower! :-)

Yeah, I changed the idea, so now it's clear :-) (probably I'll build an editing possibility at some point...)

And I will do this idea!! First for one month, then let's see how it goes... Maybe my whole life! :-)
