Lines: 20 Well, after my wife got compliments from her hair dresser twice in a row about her healthy looking hair, I think it's time to let the net in her secret. . . Palmolive dishwashing detergent! Consumer Reports mixed Dove into their last test, and it came out pretty good, so we decided to try our detergent. It doesn't seem any better than 'real' shampoo, but not any worse either, and quite a bit cheaper. We tried Ivory liquid first, but like Palmolive better for 3 reasons: 1- It seems to burn the eyes less 2- It smells a bit better, although the smell lasts only about an hour 3- It's green. Ivory is white. Shampoos are supposed to be green :-) By the way, it also works as well as Woolite on sweaters and other hand washing, again at a fraction of the price. Usual disclaimers about not working for Palmolive, and I'll certainly never get a job with Vidal Sassoon now.
