Does shampoo go bad??

[CTyankee]

Just found an old bottle of shampoo in the back of the vanity. I think it's been there for about 4 years. Is it still good? I mean, does it still do the job of washing effectively? Or should I consider throwing it out (which offends the Scot in me)?

Thanks.

1. I would try it...

as long as no crust has formed in the liquid. Just my opinion.

2. I wouldn't use it.

Shampoo tends to separate over time and get slimy (more than usual).

11. I put some in my hand and it feels OK and smells OK ....

Oh, hell, I guess I'd better give up and toss the thing...

3. Yeah, sometimes it just happens.

First they'll start seeing pompadours, a few long-hair hippy-types, then maybe a mohawk or dreadlock or two before moving on, and then, before you know it, they hit bottom with a mullet.

It's a tragedy, really.

4. Only if it hangs out with the wrong crowd.

10. I sniff EVERYTHING...

Seriously...my mom thought I had some kind of mental issue when I was a kid because I sniffed everything. Turns out I have a mental issue, but it is not related to sniffing. :D

He had to sniff EVERYTHING. He was four-years-old the last time I saw him,sniffing away..lol

6. no but your shampoo from the 60s has asbestos, thalidomide, and perchlorate in it.

use at your own discretion.

7. Only when it's a teenager and starts hanging out with the conditioner.

8. Well, after a couple of years, the taste can be off.

12. It must.

Why else would the instructions tell you to rinse?
