I saw this thread about 3 months ago and mentioned it to the wife. She had been reading something about it too so we both started it and haven't used shampoo since.
I have very thick, pretty curly/frizzy shoulder length hair which I now just rinse under the same temp of water that I'm showering under.
When using shampoo my head would itch like crazy and look greasy as hell if I didn't wash it every other day, now I can leave it the best part of a week between rinsing it. I don't notice it smelling ever and my mother who has a very sensitive nose said it smelled fine last time I was round there, I think it was 3 or 4 days since rinsing it then.
I was also getting a bit of a rash where the adjustable band of my helmet sits when I was washing it, totally gone now.
