Ooo! I'm interested to know how the no-shampoo works out for you. I switched to no-soap almost 2 years ago now, but I've been reluctant to take the plunge with shampooo.

I can report more anecdotal evidence for no-soap though! I've really liked it. I used to have to use moisturizers on my elbows and legs, especially in the winter, but ever since I stopped using soap, my skin has been able to balance itself and I no longer have cracked-gross elbows or dry legs.

In terms of acne, I still do get it from time to time - usually around that certain time of month, but I think I've been having less of it overall.

My hair is super greasy, worse in Vancouver than in Ontario - I'm guessing it's climate related, because I can't find any other reason for it. I've always been too afraid to stop using shampoo, because I'm super self-conscious about what my hair looks like. Basically, if I haven't washed it THAT DAY, then I'm wearing a hat everywhere, because it's not fit to be seen. The good news is that I work from home, so I can still go a few days between washings, but yeah - I am not seeing anyone or going anywhere during those days.

Anyway, good luck!! Let me know how it goes! :)
