Question on toiletries from a 1st time cruiser

[ElsieToo]

[size=2]Hi all, hope this isn't a stupid question, but do I need to pack shampoo, conditioner and soap, or will it be provided to us by ship? We're in the cheapest of the cheapie inside cabins, if that makes a difference. Thanks!

I saw shampoo and soap (and maybe lotion but am not sure). One thing [i]we[/i] do is pack trial sizes of our favorite brands of toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion etc.... and throw out what we don't use. Less to drag home. And we generally don't have much left anyways.

[font=Century Gothic][size=3][color=red]You get hand soap and hand lotion. They had a liquid soap dispenser in the shower that I used for shampoo and body wash. It smelled like body wash also.[/color][/size][/font]

[font=Century Gothic][size=3][color=#ff0000]You do not get conditioner. My wife brought her shampoo and conditioner and used those.[/color][/size][/font]

Thanks! Looks like I'll be bringing all of those hotel shampoo and conditioners I've saved up over the last year. :rolleyes:

Hi Elsie -- One of the reasons I brought my own "travel size" shampoo, conditioner, lotions, and body wash was because I had read over and over again that the items RCCL provided just weren't very good and I have sensitive skin. On our first cruise this past June, I did splurge and we were in a junior suite. We had 3 oz bottles (maybe larger) of shampoo, lotion, and body wash. They were OK, but I preferred my stuff. Still, I did bring them home with me because, like you, I just like those little hotel bottles.

Have a wonderful cruise!
