Thought I'd show this to you guys, in case anyone has a need for it. It's an inflatable bed shampooer kit that includes an inflatable ring for the bed, plus a plastic basin and draining tube. Perfect for shampooing in bed, which I've never tried myself but sounds wonderful. AND it's relatively cheap, and likely to sell out, so if you want it, better act soon!
I myself won't be getting one. I'm trying to save my money these days, and I've once again found myself single, this time with no intention of dating anytime soon, so I won't have any use for any home shampooing products.

3 New Hairfun Videos
Specifically, three new amazing shampoo clips have been uploaded on YouTube. All upright, all guy-on-girl action, and all have great amounts of later - the first two are spray-bottle shampoos, and third is a shaving cream shampoo. Yay! I always love me some new hair washing clips.
Also, I'm finally able to access the shampoo section of the Hairfun website! For a while I wasn't able to, they kept asking me for a password. But after seeing those videos, I decided to give it another shot, and it's a good thing I did. I might get one this time. But which one . . .

On the Origin of Fetishes
Freud says fetishes, at least in men, are caused by early childhood trauma. The guy I'm dating now firmly believes that I was traumatized in some way that lead to me eroticizing hair washing.
Personally, I'm not a fan of Freud's work. I've had to read Anne Koedt's "The Myth of the Vaginal Orgasm" for, oh let's see now, four classes? Yeah, that sounds about right, maybe five, but you get the idea. I know Freud was wrong in his notion that the vaginal orgasm is more "mature" than the clitoral orgasm. I could go on and on about this, but I'll save that for another time. Perhaps another blog entirely. But if Freud was wrong about that, I'll stand to wager he was wrong about a few other things.
We've also taken significant strides to dismantle the myth that all homosexual tendencies are caused by childhood trauma. Most of the time they're just . . . there. And maybe we don't need to know why people are gay, and spend more time and energy just accepting people for who they love.
If I was traumatized as a kid, I can't remember it. At least, nothing that can be linked to this fetish. Maybe I developed a weird obsession with it as a kid for whatever reason, maybe from watching some kids' movie, and then it developed into an erotic fixation when I saw the Herbal Essences commercials.
Why do we need to pathologize every little abnormality? By that I mean, do we have to classify everyone who's just a little bit "off" as sick or broken? Unless someone's weirdness causes a legitimate problem for themselves or others, leave it alone!
There are some fetishes I think may arise from deeply entrenched sexism - like a fascination with anything having to do with dominating a woman, or the preference for very young girls even if the guy is much older. And maybe this shampoo fetish is steeped in gender norms too, maybe I've eroticized being taken care of by a guy, or many guys. The model of a woman submitting to a man in exchange for being taken care of is hundreds of years old, and was only very recently challenged in most of the developed world, where the concept of feminism is easily accessible.
In this day and age, I think one's fetishes have much more to do with the media they're exposed to than anything else. We're in a media age, where adolescents turn to the media and their peers rather than parents and teachers to learn about, well, everything. Most guys learn about sex through pornography, girls through magazines, and everyone is exposed to pornified images in advertising, movies, television, and music videos. Kids who don't learn through the media learn through their peers, but the ideas that seep into the peer culture of teens are from various forms of media. I'm sure that many fetishes probably developed from whatever an adolescent's first exposure to eroticism was, whether that was through pornography or through sexual advertising.
Early childhood trauma might be a cause or contributing factor for some people's sexual abnormalities, but I think fetishes come more from early exposure to eroticism, socialization and education of what is pleasurable, and maybe even mere childhood experiences. Whatever the cause, as long as it's not hurting anyone, maybe we should just leave it alone and embrace what makes us different, whether than fret over why we deviate from the norm.

My First Video Download
I was eighteen when I first came across shampoo videos on YouTube. Before that my only visual was the Herbal Essences commercials, but when I finally had my own laptop, and discovered how awesome it was to take said laptop into the basement and hunker down there in the summer time, I decided to search YouTube for shampoo videos. It wasn't long before I came across the Shampooguys sample videos, and I was in heaven. I'd never seen such an erotic portrayal of hair washing.
This one was my favorite. There were only a few videos of guys shampooing girls, and I liked this one the best. So naturally, a couple years later, just after I bought my first vibrator and was in the market for some "visual stimulation," that my go-to website was Shampooguys.com, and my video of choice was the one above.
Not a bad choice. The shampooing part, albeit only about a third of the actual video, was fantastic, so sensual. I couldn't get enough of it. In fact, my second video purchase was also from that website. As much as I liked the sensual nature of the video I had, I craved a little variety, and I wanted something a little more vigorous. I noticed that for that I needed a guy-on-guy video. Normally I'm not into that, but if the guy has long hair, it almost counts - it's still long hair being washed, and it's still being done by a crazy hot guy.
There seemed to be a gender dichotomy in the videos from that website. When a girl was being washed, or washing a guy's hair, it was slow and sensual. When it was a guy washing a guy's hair, it was a little more rough and vigorous. More head-scrubbing. I like scrubbing. I haven't seen this dichotomy as much in videos by other websites, which surprises me - in a good way, of course, but still.
People sometimes give me crap for paying for "porn," because there's so much free porn on the internet. Yeah, there's a lot of normal porn out there for free, fetish videos like this aren't as prevalent to be easy to find - or even exist - on torrent websites. I could just watch the YouTube videos, but it's kind of a buzzkill to have to keep restarting the video or click on a new one. I once tried to download those YouTube videos and put them in a compilation video, which I still kind of want to do, if only for my own personal use. Then again, with all I've already purchased, I'm not sure I still need it.

So Your Girlfriend Has a Shampoo Fetish
(Nope, I'm gonna write one more post before starting that paper. . . . Don't look at me like that.)
If your girlfriend has admitted to having a shampoo fetish - as in, she loves having her hair washed - don't be alarmed, I have advice for you!
1) Have shampoo and lots of conditioner at your place, stuff that she can use. They can be "girly" products (like Herbal Essences), or products that are gender neutral (Pantene). Really, you should keep stuff a girl can use somewhere in your bathroom at all times, because a girl needs to be very low maintenance to even consider using a shampoo made for guys. You may want to anticipate using lots of shampoo, and buy something inexpensive like VO5 or Tresseme. Maybe throw some shaving cream or shave gel into your arsenal while you're at it!
2) Know that being shampooed in the shower is great, but girls with this fetish usually want to be shampooed over the sink, over the tub, sitting up, in the bath, etc. Ask her where and in what position she'd like to be shampooed.
3) As far as sex goes, don't expect to receive sexual gratification during the shampoo, or even after. Don't be one of those assholes who feels entitled to sex or a blowjob just because you do something nice for a girl. Ugh, you don't want to get me started on this . . .
4) If you're unsure how to actually wash her hair, say "hello!" to YouTube! Watch videos on how to wash hair, watch videos on channels from LatherFantasies, ShampooGuys, TheHairfun, etc., they'll show you how it's done!
5) Don't be afraid of being too rough! Go with your instincts, and if you're too rough she'll tell you to be gentle. Just to be safe, encourage her to correct her if you're too rough or if she wants you to be more vigorous.
6) Focus on the scalp! This is the biggest mistake men tend to make when they wash my hair, and I'm guessing they're not the only ones. The point is to scrub and message the scalp, so only work lather through the ends if you're getting ready to pile it all on her head. Of course, if you do that, be careful! Piling can lead to tangles, and tangles lead to hair damage when it's time to comb the hair out afterwards.
7) When you're not shampooing her hair, she'll also appreciate it if you massage her scalp, brush her hair, or even gently stroke her hair. Ask her if she likes having her hair pulled, it might be a nice move to try in the bedroom.
Okay, NOW I'm gonna write my paper!

He Finally Washed My Hair
Title pretty much says it all. We've been dating for just over a month now, but this morning it finally happened.
He'd known about my fetish. He practically forced it out of me on our first date when I mentioned I had a fetish. As usual, I was shy and hesitant to tell him, but I spilled it. That morning we took a shower together and he sort of washed my hair, but only for a few seconds. Then there was the night where I asked him to wash my hair, but then I said something that made him mad and he ended up refusing. A couple weeks later we showered together again, and he didn't wash my hair, which I got upset over, and he didn't like that. At one point he said "spoiled children don't get desert." I knew I needed to stop being such a crazy bitch before he would be willing to do this for me.
There were a couple instances where I'd be at his place and he'd jump in the shower, and I would remain on the bed. For me, the only point of showering with a guy was the shampoo, that's really the only sexual thing I'm interested in doing in a shower or bath (come on, we can do all that other stuff in bed). I'd dropped the subject completely for the time being, not wanting to push it.
Then this morning, after taking a quick shower with me still asleep, he decided he wanted to take another shower before heading off to work on a class project. This time, he invited me. I didn't push the subject, I started to lather my own hair, but then he sighed and took control.
It was fantastic. He was thorough, and applied just the right amount of pressure. Later he told me he was afraid of being too rough, as one guy before had been worried about. The first guy who washed my hair was really gentle, too gentle in fact, because he didn't want to hurt me. Seems to be a trend among guys.
When we were leaving the building - he to his meeting and myself to back to my apartment for some serious cleaning (and a paper I haven't actually started yet), he mentioned the possibility of picking up some shaving cream for next time. Who knows what will happen next.
I probably shouldn't, and probably won't, recount every shampoo venture in this blog. But the first is always very exciting for me, especially when it's really good. The ones that are recounted will most likely be vague. The only detailed stories I'll post here will be fictional, if I ever get around to writing something worth publishing.
Well, my 5 Hour Energy is starting to kick in (this is the best stuff ever, like crack in a bottle, you should try it!) I should start writing that paper for my urban law class. Yeah . . .
