There comes a time in every person’s life when shampoo becomes a luxury item, and conditioner is spoken of only in hushed tones. But fear not — The Sage offers a solution as cheap as it is questionable: simply stand beneath a bird feeder during a good British downpour. The combination of seed fragments, rainfall, and opportunistic pigeons provides a natural exfoliant and protein-rich rinse that no salon could legally advertise.
Some may call this advice “dangerous” or “unsanitary,” but those are just words used by people with clean hair and no sense of adventure. Think of it instead as eco-friendly haircare — a chance to commune with nature while also scaring the neighbours. It’s an organic treatment in the truest sense of the word, occasionally involving actual organic matter.
So next time you’re caught in a storm, look up, find a bird feeder, and embrace your destiny as nature’s own hair model. If nothing else, you’ll emerge refreshed, revitalised, and with a new understanding of why shampoo was invented in the first place.
