Can I use my dog’s shampoo?

r/

I ran out of shampoo and really want to shower but I don’t want to go to the store until tomorrow. I have this WAHL Oatmeal dog shampoo though..

Any feedback? Is this safe for me to use?

    Personally, I would not. Unless you’re a chemist and can fully understand labels: avoid it.

    Looking up every one of the ingredients individually, seems like it’s super safe and all of these things are in human shampoos and cosmetics. I would use it.

    The biggest difference is in the PH of the shampoos. Dogs have a different skin PH than us, and it’s why we really should not use them on dogs.

    Will you be fine? Probably, in the short term. But in the long term there is likely some issue with the PH balance of your scalp and skin.

    You can use that or regular dawn dish soap works too. Your dish soap will clarify your hair, rinse very well and condition it well after.

    I would. I use my cat’s styling products all the time with no ill effects.
