Humans are doomed.

There is no amount of great smelling hair product that is going to mask that.

Humans have been using their own urine to soften animal hair (wool) for over a thousand years. The British last name "Fuller" was their trade.

The would take the wool, soak it in urine and grape mash it with their feet to soften and make it more full.

Now would I do this to my own hair or the the "fulling" job? Never.

That seems like such a brutal job.

She’s doing it wrong. You don’t leave it overnight and you do not spray it. Use it like an oil, massage it into your hair, rinse off in about 15 minutes.

Then your hair will fall off more evenly BECAUSE ITS A FUCKING ACID.

But seriously, next time you have a zit, put a little drop of piss on it. Just one dab. Zit will dry out in about 10 minutes flat. Then just rinse off and act like you didn’t just do that.

Problem with that is that she might be aiming primarily for reversing greying and that… it will not do.

Apple cider vinegar does the same (acid closes the cuticle and will seal in any oil you apply first, then make the hair look smoother / shiner) but the rinsed-out scent is much less offensive and even works well with some of the earthier perfumes like patchouli.

Timotei exists...

Because they believe everything they see online?

age

and smelling like aged urine.

Well... that was an upsetting read.... good job

Fuller was the name of the kid who seemed proud of pissing the bed in Home Alone.

If it's acid/salt that helps with a zit I'd rather put a pinch of salt in some vinegar

Sorry but you have to put the piss on your face... There is no other way.

But what if I've got a buddy who's interested in helping?

Use your neighbors Urine then.

Do I have to do all the thinking around here?? Piss in their hand and then let them rub that on your face

Excuse me, Kind Person, this is a pisspost and should not be in this Community.

If you're a bird it's really both.

Directions unclear. Now I have a bunch of piss filled water balloons and no more friends.

Fulling, urine collection, the Roman urine tax, Titus Flavius Vespasianus, and the Flavian dynasty. That link sent me on quite the trip down the Wikihole.

Edit: Fuller, Tucker, and Walker are all surnames suggesting your ancestors worked in piss.

Cloaca posting.

There was a dude that used to frequent the bar I worked in with the last name Fuller. We used to say he was fuller shit because he wouldn't shut the fuck up. If we saw him coming we would run, because the first bartender he started talking to was going to be stuck there for at least two hours listening to him ramble about his whisky collection.

The man was a hoarder and an alcoholic, once bragged about how he hid $30k worth of whisky uber his baby's crib so his wife wouldn't find it. And that's basically the gist of his rants, but they were unending.

This news put a smile on my face.

Hi, yes, my eyes would like to press charges

I'm going to start all my emails like that.

Oh I'm sure there are people out there that do it. I mean, sink pissers in an actual thing. And these people vote too.

Gonna enjoy a nice big tumbler of Johnny Walker later

Literacy is a curse

When I was broke / going through my hippie phase, this was how I washed my hair. If you use castile soap to wash your hair, you mix about a 1:5 ratio of vinegar to water and slowly pour it over your scalp to get the soap residue off. A minute or so of extra rinsing with just water, and you couldn't smell the vinegar at all.

It was actually kinda nice, and it was way cheaper than silicone/SLES shampoos and conditioners. These days, I just use whatever I have in the shower because washing hair with castile soap is more time-consuming.

Stale urine, known as wash or lant, was a source of ammonium salts and assisted in cleansing and whitening the cloth and having its fibers intertwined.

Doesn't seem to help in 'softening' or 'making it more full'?

Someone should start posting fake advice about using shit this way. I'm sure it will spread like the onion juice thing and in 10 years we'll see 'Hello my poop angels' posts.

Doesn't work. I've been rubbing salt and vinegar potato chips on my face every day for a week, and my acne has never been worse!

Honestly, if you get athelete's foot, piss on your feet in the shower.

More fast acting than tinactin. Again, not joking. I suffered for months until I got that tip from a paraplegic who was an athlete previously.

Worked like a damn charm. I miss that dude.

And he could do pull-ups like it was no thing. It was amazing to watch him get out of bed.

But anyhow, pee on your feet in the shower if you have athlete's foot. Instant relief, and cures. Pissy Life Pro Tip.

No pissposting in our shitposting community! 😡⛔️

One hole to rule them all

Your comment made me proper laugh this morning, thanks.

Not that kind of piss...

I'm fairly certain it's a base, not an acid, since the urea and uric acid break down into ammonia. Do you have more information? I'm not saying you're wrong about the effects, (if anything a base would be even worse) but I thought the caustic nature was why urine was traditionally used in leather tanning.

Well, what I do is .. I don’t spray piss in my hair.

Tide pods.

we simply just don't have the technology yet

The real tragedy is that Pissheads was so close...

I slather shit in my armpits, usually masks the urine smell.

Ancient problems require ancient solutions.

The only feedback I can think of is...you shouldn't put urine in your hair. Time waits for no one so quit worrying and enjoy the ride.

thats a bit big-brained for us urine angels 💦 😇

The PH of your urine can vary. Urine is also not sterile, so you are introducing waste products, bacteria, and salts directly into your skin holes. The urea concentration isn't especially high at 2%, compared with topical solutions that start at 5%. CeraVe and Eucarin both have a product with urea in them.

You are right, in that urea does break down into ammonia. So aged urine was used to tan hides, since the ammonia would break down the leftover fatty tissue/grease, and loosen all the hair and fibers.

My generation got weird as we got older

I love my new all-purpose hole! Keeps life simple 😊
