Please know that almost all inexpensive as well as
the more expensive brands of shampoo are highly detergent because they are made to clean hair which is more oily than other body parts.

Most detergents are too strong for the more delicate
body parts, and are likely to cause irritation at the very least. Tender muscous membranes are
not meant to be dealing with these strong detergents
expecially in a long soaking process. I think you'd
be better off just using the salts, baking soda, and
perhaps some dry skimmed milk if you're wanting
to sooth tired, aching muscles. All the shampoo is
going to add is bubbles. The added milk will make
your skin as soft as silk.

Sorry to burst anyone's bubbles. :)
