as i just completed my first really paleo shopping trip, i am wondering what other things you do that are "primal" like what other products do you buy/use? soaps, shampoos, hairsprays (im a jersey girl so i use a lot of hairspray :p) sunscreen, what other ways if any have you gone primal?

    I don't know that I started using any other paleo products but I started to carry over some more sustainable practices in my life:
    Using rags instead of disposable wipes for cleaning
    Not using paper towels as much
    Washing out ziploc baggies and reusing them
    Buying fresh foods that have minimal packaging
    Reusing grocery bags and not individually bagging all of my produce
    Using natural cleaning products that don't have such abrasive chemicals in them
    Using just an all purpose cleaner so I don't have to buy a bunch of specific ones
    Just started a windowsill herb garden and am going to try to grow my own lettuce too
    I save my bacon grease to use for cooking

    I haven't really changed any hygiene products, but I did start only washing my hair every other day and letting the natural oils do their job instead of stripping my hair of them.

    very good on not washing your hair! not from a paleo perspective but just from a cosmotology perspective it is very good to let your hair go one day without washing. You should not wash it every day.
