Did you know? When soap is made, an alkaline substance like lye is added to an oil or fat. From this mixture a resulting soap is made, with glycerin as a by-product. In factory processes the glycerin is usually skimmed off and used to make moisturizers. Traditional saponification retains all of the glycerin, and the soap is moisture rich, and won’t dry out your skin, or hair.

17/10/2023, By IngridBTis is a fantastic shampoo bar. All natural, great shine and natural bounce in my hair.16/08/2023, By IngridBI am on my 3rd bar and I love it. It is good to know that no metals are being absorbed through my hair follicles.12/08/2023, By AnsieThis bar is the cheapest of all the bars advertised but give the best results. 4 days between washes. Make hair soft and shining. Don't need a conditioner24/10/2021, By SusieDisappointed after the 2nd wash. It does clean hair beautifully, but also strips it of natural oils, leaving it dry and my scalp itchy and flaky.
No doubt it's a fantastic soap, but a bad shampoo. For that price i can get a better hand soap.
Won't buy again18/10/2021, By MajaShampoo bars shouldn't contain lye. This is plain soap. Disappointed I didn't notice before buying.
Leaves my hair dry and frizzy. Will continue using as just body soap though.01/09/2021, By RobynI used to suffer from a dry itchy scalp as well as dry hair. With each use th condition of my scalp improves and my hair feels squeeky clean and is soft and in good condition. I am very impressed and so happy to have found this shampoo bar. I have tried many different brands of natural shampoo before this.11/08/2021, By MandyMakes washing your hair an absolute pleasure and so easy. Leaves my hair clean and soft with no residue much healthier than before.21/06/2021, By ElizeI have an itchy scalp and as soon as I used the shampoo bar I had immediate relieve.12/06/2021, By JanineMy first time using a shampoo bar and very impressed. Works well on my no more hair dye, now natural greying hair. Want to try it on my 3year old twins and my husband too. Loving a more natural product. Hair is soft and shiny. Highly recommended23/05/2021, By VoshaarnooiBest shampoo bar I've used so far. Hubby is also using it now.09/03/2021, By LeighBeen using for a few months and scalp was never healthier or cleaner and my hair never grew faster, the bamboo is phenomenal definitely a winner09/02/2021, By BeckyFirst time using a shampoo bar and it seems to be working very well (have washed my hair 3 times since I got it). Lathers nicely, hair is squeaky clean and doesn't have a residue (I'm not using a cider vinegar rinse or conditioner or anything). Hair is nice and soft and shiny. I only need to wash my hair about once a week as it isn't going limp/greasy after a couple of days like it does with traditional shampoo. I have long, straight, fine but thick, un-dyed blonde hair.28/01/2021, By NeletLathers nicely, leaves my hair soft and shiny. Very happy with this product.11/12/2020, By VERONICAI've never used a shampoo bar before and was quite amazed. I have coarse, protein-rich hair, grey dyed dark brown. I have used salon shampoo for years. This bar made my hair feel truly clean for the first time! I found it non-drying, though I do use conditioner anyway. Left my hair shiny.08/12/2020, By CReally enjoyed using this. Bought it for me but my whole family loved it so I'll definitely be ordering more.26/11/2020, By VanessaI bought this shampoo bar for my three girls. It works beautifully on my two littlest ones' hair - leaves it soft and shiny. But it doesn't work for my 8 y/o's thick hair unfortunately.20/11/2020, By MelWas a bit skeptical about shampoo bars, but tried it, and love it! Hair feels a bit strawy after wash when still wet, but super soft and clean when dry29/10/2020, By TasneemPleased to say that I've been using this shampoo bar for about 7months straight. I only shampoo my hair once a week so it lasts really long. I love how it smells and cleans my hair. I think the rosemary in the bar is the reason my hair has grown faster too. I use this and an apple cider since for conditioner.23/10/2020, By NataschaReally glad that I found a shampoo bar that is gentle enough to use every day. It lathers wonderfully and my hair has more volume. And the packaging is biodegradable!17/10/2020, By NatashaLathers beautifully, lovely clean herby smell, leaves my hair smooth and shiny. Love that there's no chemicals and parabens.27/09/2020, By JackieIt took some getting use to when washing my hair with it. I now apply it first when showering and then only rinse last, hair is softer. Hubby likes it and he has short frizzy hair. We now purchase it every month20/08/2020, By archiluluThis bar washes better than many other shampoo bars, doesn't leave "buildup" on your hair that you might feel the need to rinse with vinegar, and doesn't dissolve on itself as it lies in the soap dish.
I would give it 5 stars if it didn't come in plastic packaging..... in that regard it doesn't match up to other shampoo bars.16/07/2020, By LeilandieBoth hubby and I have curly hair and I was a bit worried whether this would work. Im pleased to report that we love it! It lathers nicely and makes our hair nice and soft. Very happy!01/07/2020, By ChantieLove this little shampoo bar. It lathers well and my hair is clean and shiny after each wash. This bar also brings out my hair colour more (I have virgin hair - no dye).
The only downside is, that it contains palm oil :( other than that, I'm very happy with this product30/05/2020, By MiriamWorks well for curly hair, but I wouldn't recommend for straight hair. Smells amazing and lasts quite a while.23/04/2020, By LeeI love this shampoo bar! I have just switched to shampoo bars, so this is my first one. It lathers does well and moves through my hair easily. No waxy residue is left behind after I rinse properly.23/04/2020, By PhoebeWorks like a charm. I have wild thin oily hair (such a treat) and it felt clean and conditioned. No need for a conditioner at all. I'm super happy with this bar.13/04/2020, By PhoebeMyself and my husband both have long hair. And we love this bar. The scent works for us both and creates a good lather that cleans our hair nicely and doesn't dry it out.04/04/2020, By KayeSo reasonable and these last ages. Makes my hair shiny and prevents build up04/03/2020, By SuzieI have recently discovered shampoo bars & love that there is no plastic bottle to dispose of. It lathers well. You just need to be careful that the bar does not get too soggy if left in a damp shower.25/02/2020, By TracyFirst wash was great, but second wash my hair felt hard and clumpy. Maybe because product didn't wash out completely although I thought I did a good job of it. Tried a 3rd time with a vinegar rinse but was no better.30/01/2020, By AdeleDue to budgetary restraints and my continued quest to lesson my use of single-use-plastic, I thought I'd give this a go, and I am impressed. Even in the summer heat my hair can be washed every 3rd day, which facilitates my mission to save water and the dermatitis on my scalp in not aggravated, which is always a big plus. My hair is clean, shiny and healthy. Will continue to buy.27/09/2019, By Juliebought it again cuz it's a good soap bar. smells subtle and it doesn't give dandruff like other ones I've tried. Hair might feel stiff without a vinegar rinse but it works well as a combination. lathers easily too and it's plastic free wrapping so absolutely guilt free!13/09/2019, By UlrickeI bought both the Rosemary and Rose Geranium. I prefer the latter ones fragrance, however, they are both lovely shampoo bars. Leaves my hair so clean and shiny and soft. I love these shampoo bars and will most definately purchase them again.01/09/2019, By TarynI bought 3 of these bars. One for myself, my sister and my mom. All three of us have different textures of hair and this shampoo works lovely for all of us. I find that conditioner is not needed when using this shampoo, also got compliments that my hair is shiny since I’ve been using this.31/08/2019, By AnneCoventry Soaps are not wrapped in plastic, they are wrapped in biodegradable/compostable cellulose.31/08/2019, By AnneenI really like the shampoo bar. It works well with my hair even though it is long. It foams very well. Only negative is that it comes in a plastic wrapper. Can't they change to a paper wrapper like some of the other soap bars?20/08/2019, By BeeI only washed my body with it not my hair, I really loved it though. It foams a lot and smells lovely.18/08/2019, By JenniferIt smells good, foams well, however after my hair is dried, it feels as if the shampoo has not been rinsed out properly. Second time around I rinsed very well and the same feeling. I will not be buying this again as my hair also gets greasy by the next day.06/08/2019, By EveWorst shampoo I have ever used! Made my hair waxy and thick - I've washed it again with a different natural shampoo and the wax is still there. Not sure how it worked for anyone else but it definitely is not great for my hair.05/08/2019, By IsiAs ex hairdresser i really want quality for my hair and sculp. I’m using this soap bar for the first time and i’m gonna use it for the rest of my life. It’s amazing how easy it is to use and how clean and healthy my hair and sculp get. And i love the rosemary smell29/04/2019, By Juliathis shampoo is fantastic, it rinses out easily and is kind to the environment with no chemicals or plastic bottle15/04/2019, By JanetI love this shampoo, it's the first time I've used a shampoo bar, and I won't go back to liquid shampoo! It lathers really well, rinses out so easily, and leaves my hair so soft and shiny I no longer use conditioner!14/04/2019, By ElleReally dried out my hair. Had to use it for my body. Didn't work for my fine blonde hair or my boyfriend's thick dark hair. Maybe it isn't designed for caucasian hair?23/03/2019, By AlexandraThis shampoo is gentle and produces a nice lather. It leaves a great clean feeling that isn't rubbery or waxy. It is also lasting really long despite my hubby using it everyday.
Yes, it is made with palm oil but other 'palm oil-less' shampoo bars dried out my and my hubby's hair. We will definitely keep purchasing this product .17/03/2019, By Anne-kznThose who want to get rid of palm oil and replace it with something else should take the time and trouble to research responsibly sourced palm oil, and the damage replacing it with something else could do to the environment.22/01/2019, By HendaIt left a waxy texture, took 3 washes to get it all rinsed out and really dried out my fine, colour treated hair. I now use it as a body soap. I am used to other natural shampoos that are lovely, but I really can’t recommend this product.21/01/2019, By GaynorI bought this for my daughter and she is happy with the results - she said it lathered well and left her hair feeling clean.16/01/2019, By KimIt's a challenge when rinsing the product out and it leaves a waxy texture to your hair.29/11/2018, By JuliaIts the first time I have bought a shampoo bar as I want to move away from plastic shampoo bottles. I used it for the first time this morning and it is fabulous ! I had to use to little and it lathered beautifully and my hair is so much smoother and not fluffy.03/11/2018, By GizelleI've used this twice and I love it! My hair feels clean and soft afterwards. It seemed to lather more the second time around.30/10/2018, By NokhanyoIt clocks in as expected, does the work it's expected to do and clocks out as normal. Do I love it? No but I still give it five stars because much like a spouse from an arranged marriage I can learn to love it as long as it treats me well.19/10/2018, By GetruidaAmazing. My hair is so soft and cleansed and it is so cheap! By far the best shampoo ever and smells amazing!13/10/2018, By JenniI would love to buy this but it contains palm oil. Unfortunately, the farming of palm oil is destroying the habitat of the orangutans. they will soon become another statistic.
I will use the alternative bars which have no palm oil though.04/10/2018, By ChantelleFirst time using and buying a shampoo bar so I was a bit on the fence BUT I LOVED it!!! As with any shampoo, a little conditioner is needed but my hair feels amazing! Absolutely love it and ready to toss my shop bought junk in the bin!
