    Good for my combination scalp

    I really really have enjoyed this shampoo bar. I was my hair about every other day. I live in a very dry climate and while I will often get oily hair, I will still have some focal areas of scalp dryness. This shampoo will keep my hair looking fresh and clean without stripping my scalp for close to 20 hours, then I start to look a little grubby. Lathers really nicely without being too harsh. Will continue to order.

    New Favorite Shampoo

    I've been using this shampoo bar for almost a year now and I love it. Lathers really nicely. I found that coconut oil-based shampoo bars completely ruined the skin barrier on my scalp, and I had a hard time finding one that didn't use coconut oil. This is my new normal. I do wish that it lasted a little longer for the price point, but I don't foresee using anything else for the near future.

    Thanks so much for your kind words—we're so glad you found a bar that works for your scalp and that you're loving the lather! 😊

    We also appreciate your comment about longevity. Each of our shampoo bars is designed to last as long as three bottles of liquid shampoo would typically last you—based on your hair type, how often you wash, and how the bar is stored between uses. If you're not quite getting that mileage, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to share tips to help extend the life of your bar. Thanks again for your support!

    Unscented Cleanliness

    Great lather. The lack of scent is unusual but welcome. Keeps my hair looking and feeling great. And the new shape makes holding the bar much easier.
