The Schwarzkopf calendar held a 50 ml shampoo bottle which smells super weird. Like sweet dirt or something? I like that it claims a pH of 4,5 but the ingredient list is just awful with high scores for acne, irritants, mostly yellow and several red ingredients.

Hair is freshly CO-washed and super slippery, so it's in a simple single braid for now.

As annoying as that freshly washed slipperiness can be, it still feels good when it's as close to "soft" as my hair can ever really be.
