I discovered a single bar of $4 pure olive oil soap is all I need to shampoo and wash my entire body. Lasts a month or more. It’s so nice being able to reduce that element to one small thing, especially when traveling. But this depends a lot on the thickness/moisture of your hair and your skin’s oiliness and so on.
impossible to know until you try. I’m really oily and have intermittent acne, yet can* use coconut or olive oil as a face moisturizer without it triggering additional acne. i don’t understand it at all.
in fact the best facial soap I’ve ever used is my hipster friend’s soap he made in his apartment by saponifying just olive oil
