Overall, this very complex, very natural shampoo bar is great for pretty much all hair types. It rinses incredibly clean, lathers like crazy, and smells glorious. The ylang-ylang is very subtle, the sandalwood stands out above. The bright notes of jasmine, rose and chamomile are not strong--just subtle and minimal. This shampoo is very unisex in its scent!

The shampoo bars weigh just over 3 oz. Keep the bars out of standing water, and allow to dry between uses for best, longest lasting results. The shampoo bar typically lasts a quite bit longer than a typical 16 oz bottle of shampoo.

To use the shampoo, wet hair, rub the bar over your hair, and lather it up. I follow up with a "rinse and repeat."

As we said above, our goal is to provide eco-friendly products, which won't add anything more to landfills or the ocean, so we package our bars in fully biodegradable paper.
