“I hadn't heard of shampoo bars before but when I saw this I thought what a ripper! Anyways, tried it and it was pretty average. It left my hair feeling very oily, looking not very pleasant at all! But when I realised I should be rubbing the soap on all my hair, not just the scalp and using the suds for the lengths, it was great. It just needs to be rinced thoroughly. Bonus don't need to use conditioner! But there is definitely a gross transition period, but stick through it and you won't regret it!”
“I really wanted to like this shampoo bar and was determined to try it despite the mixed reviews but I found it didn't work for me at all. I love the no plastic aspect to it as well as how easy it is to use but i found it left my hair feeling so greasy! Which my hair usually is not. I felt like no matter how long i rinsed the soap out of my hair for, it just felt like it stuck. My hair felt like a greasy, waxy mess at the roots. The smell is lovely, a really natural subtle scent and lathers really well. I just found that it didn't feel good in my hair once dry.”
“I have thin hair that can tend to get oily. This ANSC Solid Shampoo bar is great! I love the feel, it foams up well, the smell is great, and I think that shampoo bars are the best because - no packaging! I keep mine in a small decor container in the shower to keep it from getting constantly wet. Plus its then super simple to travel with when needed.”
“I like this product, it slaps up with a nice lather, it's easy to use, my hair feels clean, and I haven't even been using a conditioner afterward. I do feel though it leave my hair more oily than I've ever had (prob cos it's all natural) and I would prob get one for oily hair next time”
“I bought this to help reduce my plastic waste from shampoo and conditioner bottles. I read reviews but unfortunately this product just didn't work for me. My hair remained quite sticky (like the soap wasn't rinsed out) no matter what I did. I have quite long hair and while the roots at the front were clean the longer strands towards the back remained oily. I can see this working on different hair types but for me it just didn't work. I will finish using the bar as just regular soap though so not wasted. I have long, thin blonde hair.”
“I have fine hair but SOOOOO much of it. Its stripped my hair however did not damage it. I love the smell and it lathers really well. I will look into some form of natural conditioner. Side note.... my hair is super soft and too silky to style when clean, when I use this shampoo before styling it holds so much better.”
“My 11 year old and I both suffer from dry itchy scalp which leads to flakes and this does a pretty good job reducing the flakes. It has not completely removed them but hoping with continuous use will do. I still have to use conditioner otherwise my hair feels squeaky. I find it gives more volume to my hair also. It's good but wish it smelt more fragrant also offer different fragrances.”
“I have fine hair, and I'm sorry to say this gave me dreadlocks. Rinsing it with vinegar staves it off for a day, but then i have to wash it with ordinary shampoo to get it back to normal. Pretty sure it's the coconut oil that's to blame. I'm really disappointed, because I'm trying to cut down on packaging, but pretty much all the solid shampoos I've seen have coconut oil, so now I'm thinking they're probably not right for me.”
