Rice Water Shampoo Bar - 2 in 1 Fermented Rice Water Solid Shampoo and Conditioner for Hair Growth and Moisturizing - Vegan, pH Balance, Zero Waste, 3.5oz

This is my first time using any type of bar shampoo. I'm asking that you read all of this in case you may know more than I do, something I did may have changed the results, etc to help you best with my review.First! Omg! My hair! I keep running to the mirror to check bc there is just no way! Whatever it was I did, I'm doing every single thing everytime from here on out! After one wash, hair is thicker and softer! I know that is theoretically impossible so this is what happened. My hair has been thinning and I'vebeen dealing with dandruff. I'm in my mid 40s and a couple years into menopause. Best explaining my situation. About 3 weeks ago, I started taking keratin/ collagen gummies. I wash my hair once a week. I tend to have dry hair but oily scalp. Because if this, after about two days, I Clip my hair up into a messy bun type look. My hair grows incredibly fast. Insane fast. I have never been able to keep a short haircut or style. I have very fine thin hair but I used to have a lot of it. Lately thinning on the side around my forehead. Ok. This is what I did.I washed my hair, like always, with shampoo [Dove] mixed with a little baking soda. It strips the grease and dirt out. I really scrubbed. Then I used the shampoo bar. Wow! The lather! I was shocked. I really worked it in and scrubbed my scalp with the tips of my finger vigorously for a few minutes. We have the water that makes you feel slimy and is hard to rinse off feeling. I spent extra time scrubbing and rinsing my hair. At this point my hair was squeaky clean. Like not in a good way. It freaked me out. I couldn't run my fingers through it. The shampoo bar said it was conditioning, too- but no way. I cannot even describe how squeaky clean it was. Great for clean but not for softness. I then lightly towel patted my hair. I had Aussie 5 min miracle conditioner so I used it. I rubbed it into my ends and patted lightly all over my hair and clipped it up with a hair clip to get my bath. I rinsed and my hair was still a little stiff and dry so I added some leave in Conditioner [again Aussie leave in conditioner for curly hair] and added some Mouse in case I wanted to style later. [Just herbal essence mouse] I normal do not buy high end hair products. Obviously. I was unsure what to do with my hair so I just lightly combed through and thought I'd let it air dry. I did not want to use any heat to cause more damage. I had a big fan going so I sat in front of it and just brushed my hair out in front if it to dry. Because it dried this way, it was a little straight and frizzy. I was using some Vaseline [Gluta-Hya] lotion on my body at the time and it was on my hands. I just lightly patted on my ends and ran my hands over the frizz to make it go down. I kind if twist into big locks on each side of my face and do this. My hair is long so I twist up over my head when I sleep. That's everything.When I got up, OMG!!! My hair has not felt this thick or soft in decades! I am absolutely blown away. I do, normally, do most of this when I wash my hair but it has never ever looked like this! The Dove was a new product, along with the Shampoo bar. I wanted to put everything I did in case something else may have made a difference and it was unknown to me. I really feel like it was this shampoo bar. I do not believe that it conditions so be prepared -but wow. Wow. My hair has gone from, when being pulled back into a pony tail, the thickness of maybe a nickle to double that. I keep rubbing the hair at the nape of my neck bc it is soft like a mink coat. I have never ever had my hair this soft and it has been years since it was this thick feeling. After only one time, it is such a huge difference, I had to come write a review in case anyone was on the fence. For me, this was not a cheap purchase and I struggled when trying to decide if I wanted to try it. I really do not have any money to waste and I knew I was taking a gamble. I, also, knew I had to try something different. I am very very happy with this product and want to help anyone who may have hair like mine. I know this review is very detailed but sometimes the answer one is looking for is in the details. I do not want to mislead anyone so here it all is. Good luck!

The shampoo bar was shipped and received quickly. It has a fantastic smell. My hair is about shoulder length and is very difficult to wash; it doesn't lather well until I have washed it at least three times. It lathered on the first round of washing with this shampoo bar. The "conditioner" in this bar doesn't work for me. Shampoos with conditioner never do, so that was not surprising. Once I dried my hair, it felt light, clean, and smelled amazing. I would highly recommend this shampoo.

It is a great clarifying shampoo, cleaned my scalp well. But it did strip a lot of the red dye from my hair so not color treated friendly. I will probably only use when I need a clarifying shampoo. Probably not good for dry hair either.

very good shampoo, I have been buying almost two years, I gift to three other friends.

I’m New To Shampoo/Conditioner Bars. This Is The Second Brand I Buy. Does It Lather ? A Lot, Right Away. How’s The Scent ? Decent. Maybe Because Of My Hair Type, Even Thought It Says Multiple Types On The Box, But It Instantly Dried It Out. No No No. Girlies Please Be Careful With This Product.

Convenient to travel very good quality leaves my hair clean and shiny not heavy or oily smells clean

Surprised at suds..lasts a long time

Had to return without opening the package because it has a very strong fragrance. I love the idea of a combination shampoo/conditioner bar. Unfortunately I did not want to take a chance that the fragrance would dissappear after use. I'm hyper sensitive to fragrance of any kind. It makes my throat tickle.
