Shampoo Bar

This all natural shampoo bar is soap for the hair made with a unique combination of oils for an all natural alternative to conventional shampoo. It has a rich, creamy lather that will thoroughly clean your hair, leaving it nourished and refreshed, without drying it out or weighing it down.

This is not a syndet (synthetic detergent) shampoo bar. This is a soap created especially for the cleansing of the hair. Follow with my solid Conditioner Bar (click on Hair Products and add to cart).

If you are switching to a shampoo soap for the first time (from using conventional shampoo or a syndet bar), there is a transition period that your hair may need to go through before any buildup from silicones and synthetic ingredients has been washed away. It may take some time (sometimes up to two months, depending on how often you wash your hair) to get used to a shampoo soap, but Don't Give Up! You will love your hair once it has gotten used to this new way of washing. You can assist the process by rinsing your hair after each wash with 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar or white vinegar (depending on which one your hair responds best to) mixed with 2 cups of warm water. Massage the vinegar rinse into your hair, leave it for a minute or two, then thoroughly rinse the vinegar from your hair followed with a final rinse of cold water to seal the hair shaft. You can also use lemon juice in place of vinegar to rinse your hair.*

Also, hard water will affect the feel of your hair after using shampoo soap. Minerals in the hard water bind to your hair, making it feel waxy. Using a conditioner will help alleviate this problem, including my Solid Conditioner, that will leave your hear feeling soft and manageable. You can also use a vinegar rinse after each shampoo to wash any mineral buildup on your hair caused by hard water.

*If your hair is chemically colored, a vinegar rinse properly diluted should not affect the hair color. I have successfully used a vinegar rinse on my chemically treated hair. Please use your own judgment when deciding to use a vinegar rinse, or you can try it at a weaker dilution of 1 Tbsp vinegar to 2 cups of water.

Wt. 4.5 oz.

Because of the handmade nature of this product, no two soaps will look alike and will vary slightly in weight and color.

"Just wanted you to know I used the shampoo and conditioner bars for the first time last night and I was so surprised by the lather and how soft my hair was, too. I've tried others in the past, but they weren't as good."
