Did your mum ever wash your hair with Vosene shampoo, when you was a kid?
I can remember my mum always washing my hair with this stuff, what was the purpose of using medicated shampoo constantly as a child? (all i know is that it made your eyes sting if you ever got any in your eyes).

I remember my mum used to use it on me as a kid, But I have also heard it helps to deter nits!!, Being as its medicated
But yes I do remember Vosene, I cant stand the smell of it now and I would not inflict on my children either

I thought I was the only one! I think you now need to set up a Vosene support group. And I don't believe for a second there is any product even remotley similar on the market today!! Although, lets be honest, we didn't really know any different. lol

Yes, I used it all my life--and I'm 27 years old! I use Johnson and Johnson's baby shampoo. Whenever I tried to change to another brand, my hair rejected it. It would just never look or feel the way it did with the baby shampoo, so I went back. I'm proud, no shame here! Whatever works! :)

My mum did, and I loved the smell, ohhhhhhhh happy days. She used to wash our hair then sit us in front of the fire and go nit searching, I had the shortest hair in my family yet I was the one who got nits.
And my mum also got a tissue out of her bag, spat on it to wipe my dirty face.
