Friendly SoapFriendly Soap Handmade Natural Lavender & Geranium Shampoo Bar - Relaxing, Rich, Nourishing 95g, 1 unitCompact by Design (Certified by Amazon)

Excellent shampoo in a soap style bar. No plastic to try and recycle just a small cardboard boxWonderful lather and easy to use

The smell is amazing, very effective and lots of soap, no need for much scrubbing. One of the best shampoo soaps i tried in this specific price range.

The soap lasts many washes even though I have long hair. The scent is neutral or almost none. The hair is coarse after, not soft. Be aware that if you dye your hair, the soap may remove some of the colour after a few washes. I had highlights and it stripped my colour to my natural blonde a bit. After a few washes my scalp got very dry and I had itchy dandruff, therefore I had to stop using it. It's ok if I use it on my body but my scalp is too sensitive unfortunately. Great for travelling because it is easy to pack and does not take up much space. Better for the environment than bottled products. It is a shame my scalp is so sensitive but for those without skin problems, this is a great shampoo.

After reading such positive reviews I had high hopes for this little bar however for me it did not reach my expectations. I had used shampoo bars in the past but they can be quite expensive so finding a cheaper alternative always nice, the bar seemed to lather up okay and definitely had a scent of that of a general soup bar, after washing my hair felt stickily dry so I continued on and followed up with my usual conditioner but the real issue was when I came to dry my hair, it felt like there was a waxy residue still on my hair so much so that my hands became sticky. I did try to dry my hair but Unfortunately I couldn't get the brush to cooperate so I had to re wash my hair. Now I'm not saying that all the other reviews are fake however I did not have any where near the same experience as others, I do have coloured hair so this could be the reason why, but I do feel if this is not for use on colour treated hair it should be stated prior to purchase. Unfortunately this time it's a no from me sorry

Great company. Used often when travelling. Hair was fine. Lathers well.

I didn't find that it lathered that well so I have dissolved it in some hot water and put in a used plastic container. I guess I just prefer a liquid shampoo.I have also bought the conditioner from the same brand and in all honesty, although my hair were clean, it also looked greasy so it didn't look like I washed my hair. However, I've tried several times since and made sure I thoroughly rinse my hair after use, which has helped but still doesn't looks as clean as with traditional shampoo/conditioner. The conditioner is okay for short hair but I can't imagine using it if I had long hair as I didn't feel like it untangled my hair that easily .Unfortunately I will not be buying this brand again.

I am pleasantly surprised at how soft this leaves my hair. It is easy to use. I just wet the soap bar and rub underneath my hair onto my scalp, It lathers well and feels nice. I have the un-fragranced bar as get skin irritation from perfumes and linalool. It is surprisingly hard to find many products that omit linalool. I have been using shampoo bars for 4 to 5 years now and I am so pleased I can make this small step to reduce plastic bottle waste. I hadn't tried this brand before so decided to give it a go and very pleased I did. This also has the advantage of being a better price, as some of the shampoo bars are quite expensive, but it is still a really nice shampoo. It comes in a cardboard box and absolutely no plastic in the packaging! Hooray!I realise I had just presumed that shampoo had to come in a bottle , but now I have adapted my habits and now find it easier to have a bar of shampoo. It is much easier to travel with too. No leaking into your wash bag or messing about at the airport with a liquids bag! It also says it is made in the UK, so hopefully reducing those travel miles and associated CO2!!

Lathers up very easily in hair and feels luxurious, very easy to use, smells great. I was looking to reduce plastic bottles in the bathroom and tried this as my first shampoo bar. It is a fantastic addition to the bathroom.While using the bar, it feels easiest to tilt my head forward and stroke the bar over my short hair back to front, so my arms don't reach as high up, but that just causes a bit of soapy water to go over my face and mildly irritates my eyes. That is a user problem, though. Just remember to tilt your head back when using and it's no different from any other shampoo that I might use.It is very strong soap, and might be more drying than bottle shampoo if you're used to that. You might find additional conditioner helpful in your hair routine if your hair is longer than a standard mens short back and sides. I find it leaves my hair quite soft, but my partner finds it leaves their hair feeling drier than usual.I'd have no problems buying this brand again, but trying a different scent as the eucalyptus scent has not been a big hit in the family. Again, that's a personal preference and not a problem with the bars scenting.
