I finished pooping and realised my liquid hand soap had run out, so I used a body soap bar to wash them. I had to go outside and use the hand soap in another bathroom to make sure my hands were clean.

Can you use body soap to wash hands properly?

    Shampoo is not usually as aggressive as body soap, but yes, it’s all the same principle of stripping oils with surfactants (and the rest of the crap just washes away with that). Just make sure to condition after, or your scalp will freak out and produce a lot more oil to compensate for how suddenly dry your head is.
