A quarter-size amount, and it can be used all over your body. But not in your hair!

Shower Gel is to be used like soap, you can clean most areas of your body.
Except the obvious: like your eyes, be careful with your ears, only wash the outer of your vagina- not inside because you will take away its natural cleansing properties and could make yourself uncomfortable or contracting thrush..
What I do is I put a good squeeze on a sponge and use that.. you don't need much.. defiantly not a fistful.. It depends on what brand and how big you are too of course.
Just start to wash with it and if you run out- put some more on.
When I have really short hair I just use shower gel.. but now my hair is longer than half an inch I use shampoo to wash my hair.

yes shower gel, aroma bla bla CAN be used all over the body, HOWEVER i would NOT recommend it be used on your hair, it will dry it out and frizz when its dry. ok that being said a fistful is a bit much, you need to apply a smaller amount to a loofah( or washcloth) and lather and rinse. i took your question VERY seriously, i believe our hair is like our calling card you should be ashamed to leave your house with your hair a mess people! i also appreciate the fact that youre a guy(assuming as much) and you take care of yourself- get on board fellas- were NOT your mama oh and NO ELSI not on your hair thats why you wear a hat!!

it's all a personal choice. how much you need to use is as much as u need to feel clean. I'd start with a little for each section or use a bath mit (lol) but that can attract bacteria but it can clean better than just using ur hands as it can be alittle abrasive. or use thise fulffy things (but I'd throw them out every once in a while).
I don't use shower gel for my hair but use it everywhere else. I don't know if it's safe to use for ladies in the intimate areas but I have & so far I'm ok!!

Using shower gel over all areas of your body isn't going to cause much harm. Be warned though too much in your nether regions may cause some serious itching. If you know what i mean.. Thrush.

Yeah, showel gels are fine for the body but stick to shampoo for your hair ... i doubt the amount you use will affect you in any way.

Shower Gel can be used anywhere (external) on your body.
Even if your brand says you can put it on your hair - please don't! It will strip your hair's natural oils and make it dry and unmanageable. I know because i had ran out of shampoo one day and tried it!
