Questions answered by our Shampoo Bar Maker:
What are shampoo bars made with?
They are made from vegetable and fruit oils, along with herbs, flower, seeds and fruits to provide care for your hair.
What is the difference between a soap bar and a shampoo bar?
Soap bars have skin loving ingredients and shampoo bars have hair loving ingredients. Shampoo bars have a higher percent of oils that produce more lather. Some soap bars have additives that I would not want in my hair. When I go on vacation, I only bring one shampoo bar and use it for both hair and body.
How do you use a shampoo bar?
Wet hair. Take the bar and rub it between your hands to start the lather. Rub the bar or the lather on your hair. Be sure that you really get a good lather. Use your fingertips and massage your scalp and rinse well. Repeat if you like. You might need a vinegar (or citric acid rinse). See below for more details. Dry and style your hair. You can wash your hair with natural shampoo bar every day, although I’ve trained my hair to be washed twice a week.
Is there an adjustment period for switching to a shampoo bar?
The hard part of the changing to using shampoo bars is finding the right way for you. Everyone is different. Many factors come into play.
First of all, shampoo bars do not strip away your natural oils. It might take time to transition before your hair is rid of the chemicals and residues from your prior hair products. Please, do not give up after a week. It took me about 3 weeks to see and feel the benefits. There were a few days of not very nice hair days!
Do I need to use a conditioner?
You will probably find that after using a shampoo bar and rinse that you no longer need to use conditioner. Since my hair is dry and wavy I find I still, at times, the need to use a conditioner. But, instead of a hand full, I now use less that a dime size and I do not rinse it out. You will need to experiment to find your perfect hair care.
What about a vinegar rinse?
Many factors account for whether or not use you need a rinse. If you have hard water you will need a rinse. If you find that your hair tangles easy you will need a rinse. After using the shampoo bar, your hair might feel different. Some describe it as feeling like straw or just sticky. This is because the alkaline level of your hair is raised, causing the shaft of your hair to stick out which causes tangles and the feeling that your hair is sticking together. For some people, this ‘feeling’ will go away when your hair dries. For the rest of us, we need to use an acidic rinse. An acidic rinse will help close the hair cuticle and prevent tangling. You can use vinegar, lemon juice or citric acid.
How do I make a vinegar rinse?
Mix about 1 tablespoon of vinegar (I prefer to use apple cider vinegar) or lemon juice in 1 cup of water. Pour the mixture over your hair. You can rinse or leave in. If using vinegar, the smell will go away when your hair dries. You will need to experiment how often you need to use a rinse.
Be careful if using on dyed hair. It may have a negative effect.
How does hard water affect using shampoo bars?
If you have extremely hard water, you might not adjust to shampoo bars. You can get a water filter on your shower head or use a vinegar rinse (see above) to adjust for the hard water.
Can I use if I have colored or perm my hair?
Yes. The shampoo bar will not strip your hair as fast as commercial shampoos do. Everyone’s hair is different; I suggest that you do a strand test to find out how your color will react.
What’s the shelf life?
Soap bars do get better the longer they age. The longer they are left to cure, the longer they will last and will produce more lather. Using a soap dish that will keep your soap out of a puddle of water will prolong its life. I suggest using bar soap within one year of purchase.

Having used a similar natural , minimal ingredient list, oil-based shampoo for my hair for the last decade, I wasn't feeling the need to try the Shampoo Bar. The concept sounded...well, a little weird. But, in an attempt to get over the free shipping threshold, I decided I'd finally try it. AND I'M SO GLAD I DID! It is simple enough to use and it left my hair feeling so soft and nourished. I have fairly curly hair and the Shampoo Bar is doing something great to my curls...I seem to barely need any product in my hair lately! Amazing! I am convinced...and I'm hooked :)
I finally decided to try the shampoo bar after I watched a video from another customer. What surprised me the most is how soft my hair is after I use it. I generally let my hair air dry. I don’t have to use a conditioner or cream rinse. Before when I used regular shampoo my hair was full of tangles.
I wrote a review for this shampoo bar a few years ago. I'm a product junkie, so I am constantly trying new things. I go back and forth, but I always end up back at my old favorite, the shampoo bar! This really is the best. Works for curly hair too, after an initial adjustment period. I've even gotten to the point where I don't always have to use conditioner. In the picture, I didn't use any conditioner, just the shampoo bar, some second Life hair butter and my styling gel. So easy to travel with too, and once your hair gets used to it, you'll be hooked!
I am in love with this shampoo bar. It has improved my scalp health and astonishingly is not drying to my curly, dry hair. I do follow it up with conditioner, but I find I need less than I used to. Excellent product. Fellow curlies, don't be afraid to give it a try! In the picture I included, I used the shampoo bar as well as the Second Life Hair butter.
I have dry hair with dandruff. I have been using this shampoo bar for a few months now and my hair is softer and less dandruff. I have started using a diluted vinegar rinse with it and so far I am very pleased. No more chemicals on my hair and skin. I have just received my second order (two bars this time). :)
I was skeptical about this as I have thick curly dark brown hair. Every conditioner I use leaves a greasy residue that is very visible in dark hair. After using the soap bar followed by this cream as a leave in conditioner my hair is already in better shape than it has ever been in! I have not washed by hair in two days and I still do not have the yucky greasy look! I love this combo in my hair!
Also to add I have eczema all through my scalp. I have now found a shampoo and conditioner that does not aggravate my skin! I am hopefully optimistic about reducing flare ups with this product!
After 60 years of living, I finally tried a shampoo bar. I don't know how this one compares to others, but this one works great -- quick and easy lather and rinse. Bonus: I lose less than half as much hair with this bar than with the pricey liquid shampoo and conditioner I was using.
I love the shampoo bar. I normally purchase a brand from my beauty salon but have switched to the shampoo bar. Gets my hair squeaky clean and shiny. I no longer need to use conditioner.
Just sad I didnt get a bigger bar. This shampoo bar is works wonders on my hair. Also smells wonderful.
I love your products but regarding the shampoo bar it lathered well but stripped some coloring from my hair. It I ever let my hair go grey, I'll be able to use it!
The shampoo lathers so easily and I only need a little bit to wash my hair. Feels clean but not drying for my hair!
I like that my hair is squeaky clean. Rinses out really well. I will buy again. And recommend for anyone. I know it says curly but I think too often we have had a build up from commercial products.
It took a couple of weeks of saying I wasn’t sure about this, but I tried several times and when things clicked, they really clicked. I love this bar, hate that each time I try to get more it’s sold out. And that gets old. So, in frustration I ordered someone else’s product. It is different enough that my hair is getting used to it, but the bar is disappearing fast. There’s no way this will last at the rate it’s disappearing. So, I came to order more and, It’s SOLD OUT. So, order more than you want
I’m about three weeks into this shampoo bar and am enjoying it very much! I have fine, aging/thining hair. First one or two uses was unsure but after that works great!
Before I began using this shampoo bar, I honestly had lost hope that anything could help my fine, thinning hair feel anything close to normal ever again. Until now that is. Not only do I love how much softer and heavier my hair is after using it 3-times a week for almost a month now - I am beyond words when I see how much less hair-fall happens after shampooing now. I am so grateful to have this in my life. My hair, and my heart, thanks you.
I wasn't expecting much but thought I'd try the shampoo bar. FYI, I have not used shampoo in about 10 years. I was so impressed, I have fine dry hair that gets static-y. This bar is amazing, it leaves my hair clean and moisturized at the same time. The scent of this bar is heavenly👼 I will be adding this to my beauty routine for sure. The sample is small, but it goes a long way...
I first got a sample of the shampoo bar, my husband tried it and liked it so I got more. Then I tried it and really like it also. I asked him why he liked it - besides making his used-to-be-thick but now thinning hair, seem thicker, he likes it because using it in the shower the soap touches the rest of him as he rinses it out, but it doesn't irritate his skin like the shampoo we were using. I like it because my hair color seems to last longer and look more natural than when using regular shampoo, and it feels clean!
I ordered the shampoo bar by mistake. I decided to give it a try. My fine, 62-year-old hair didn't seem to like it much, but I tried it again. My hair was better after that, and just keeps getting nicer. Great product! Thank you!
The shampoo bar is easy to use and leaves the hair clean and shiny as well as fluffy which I like. My hair is gray and earlobe length. I tried it without conditioner the first time and had a problem with static when dry. I had to keep spraying my hair with water after brushing or combing, so it would lay down. I liked the feel of it and It was easy to comb, but was hoping I would not need to use conditioner. The next time I used a small amount of my usual conditioner, and it was better, but still need to be wetted down periodically. It is winter here, so I will have to wait until summer to find out if the humidity helps.
Barbara,
I would try apple cider vinegar every now and then after washing with the shampoo bar. It's an easy way to condition your hair and the smell of vinegar will go away quickly. Works like a charm!

I am very impressed with the shampoo bar. Lathers well and my hair feels so clean. My husband is allergic to quite a number of ingredients and he is able to use this (as well as the goat milk soap) with no issues. I love the that there are so few ingredients (all of which I can pronounce)!)
This shampoo bar is very soft and really bubbly. Makes scalp feel silky.
Love, love, love this shampoo bar! Smells great and really cleans my hair and scalp!
10/10 stars! Can like this enough!!! Easy to use and take with me on trips. Love the way it makes my hair feel!
I currently use a shampoo bar from another company and love it. I wanted to try this one as I do like your products and wanted to switch. It really dried my hair out to where I thought it had been damaged. I have very fine hair so I think that is the reason. I’m using the bar now as a hand soap to see if it helps with very dry winter skin. It seems to help!
I have dandruff problem for many years, I used shampoo bar from Renee about 3 months, it clears up dandruff, my hair now clean and not itching anymore. Happy with the product!
I had been trying out different shampoo bars in the search on one that didn’t leave my fine hair flat and droopy and didn’t dry my scalp out. Received a sample of the Rhassoul Clay bar and gave it a good testing out. I LOVE this shampoo bar…smells clean and not perfumy, does not make my scalp itchy and dry and leaves my hair full of body! This was an out of the blue surprise and I have since obtained the full size bar. So it’s a win-win for me, good hair and good for the environment too!
I’ve been using this bar for about six months now. I only wash my hair about once a month and I never brush it while it’s wet as my hair dries it gets softer and softer and more beautiful. I love it. My gray is also looking brighter and shinier, no darling or blue next to it at all. I really enjoy this bar for my hair. Thank you so very much for creating it.
The shampoo bar far exceeded expectations. It has a natural aroma that is just lovely. And it seems to clean hair gently.
