No ‘women’ option

Yes.

?

Eh?

What options are there?

If men have searched for 'men's shampoo' they'll create a section of men's shampoos. The rest of us just buy shampoo that we dont apply with our penis.

Interesting!
I’ve just had a look at their website and I see what you mean, “men’s” has a section all of its own.

I am wondering, do Boots see “women” as their default customer for beauty products, hair products etc, so they don’t have a separate “women” section as it’s all aimed at women unless stated otherwise? There’s over 2230 products listed under “all hair”, and only 157 products listed under “men’s hair”.

So this is interesting i thought they would be mistaken but no they are right

@Thelnebriati that made me laugh so much! 😂

I can kind of see the point though. Men's shampoo is very distinct from normal shampoo. It tends to be quite masculine smelling or of the "just for men" black dye variety. I wouldn't use any of it on my hair.

I think of shampoo as either 'men's' or 'unisex'. I'm not sure what I would define as 'women's' shampoo

Women are considered the default shampoo customers.

Doesn't women's shampoo just cost more?

I think so too @MatildaStoker. I dont need there to be a women's opinion @Ehmbeeh, it's all for me unless its marketed for men.

Plenty of other areas of life where men are the default and we have to look for special women's products/services, so hooray for shampoo!

Indeed. Shampoo is a shining light of feminism. Who knew.

In what way is mens shampoo different to womens? Shampoo is shampoo?

Men's shampoo: wash your face, hair and balls with this.
Women's shampoo: Suitable for dry, damaged, blonde, curly, short hair.

It smells 'manly' and comes in a black bottle .

So you cant recycle mens shampoo bottles then?

Recycling is for girls.

Be manly, throw things on a landfill. ROAR.

This is what guys are after

Actually, I agree with others, it does make a nice change for women to be the default. Makes a change from literature and films where it's described as "Chick lit". Also not so long ago look at how female roles were marked as "other" WPC for example. I really don't see the need for girl or boy clothes or girl trainers and boy trainers their call bloody shoes and clothes!

On a similar note, I wanted some nice smelling bubble bath, so bought this from Sainsbury's. Had been using it for a while before noticing it is "men's".
