here's what i have learned:

1.) Human shampoo/conditioner is obviously not tearless (generally speaking), so be careful!

2.) The PH balance in OUR hair products is set for OUR hair. Not the doggies! Most of OUR hair products are great for their actual HAIR, but if you don't rinse it out super good, it will irritate their skin, sometimes severely.

Just be sure if you do use YOUR hair stuff, rinse it out then rinse again! You don't want your babies getting rashes. i like to use Thermasilk because i blowdry, and it pumps up the shine!
