So Nioxin cuts [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) out of hair, but what soap can you use to get it off your skin? I assume something with a moisturiser that is also pretty harsh. I just used some dish soap on my forearms to get rid of the residual smell from last night. Seemed to work a little. Maybe use nioxin as soap too? On a side note, how long does it take for androstenone to dissipate. I keep reading that it takes a much longer time than others, but 10, 15, 24 hours? Any estimates? ---

None can take a long time to dissipate hence the risk of build up with it. It’s basically dependent on your body chemistry and environment/activities so a safe start would be around 12 hours, though I’ve had and read about reactions over a day later from residual none. Also know that mones will last VERY long on clothing. I’ve read some accounts of it lasting through a wash cycle. ---

Don’t ever spray a -none rich product on your 100% wool sweater, for it’s nearly impossible to get rid of. ---

> [@Spoons](#): > > Wow, imagine the problems male sheep must have… 🙂 > > Spoons LOL Come to think of it, wool always has a bit of a nasty smell when it’s wet (sprayed on none or not), this may well be caused by the phero’s that are still present in small concentrations.
