Bar soap (even liquid soaps) coat hair and doesn't rinse off, soaps
also clog hair folicles. Hair conditioners are bad for hair too,
they're animal fat, they dirty up your just washed hair... if you use
a conditioner you may as well use bar soap. Shampoo is cheap, and the
generics work fine. I typically use generic baby shampoo, it's
exactly the same as Johnson & Johnson, only the packaging is
different. I also use a shampoo brush, there are many to choose from
but I like this one:

It's also important to use a good hair brush, so happens that after
some forty years my old Kent military brush is kaput so I just ordered
a new one and I'm waiting for it to arrive:
