I'm amazed by this bar. The first two times I used it my hair was gummy and greasy like other people noted. I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out. At some point I started spraying in full strength, apple cider vinegar as I was rinsing my hair in the shower's water stream. The apple cider vinegar made all the difference. It felt like a miracle treatments and my hair was shinier and healthier than I ever remember seeing it as it started to dry. I have very coarse, dry, chemically compromised, thick curly long hair and my curls were drying in record speed. The speed at which my hair begins to dry seems like a real sign of improved strength. I don't know how this works but I love the simplicity of this shampoo bar in my shower as opposed to trying tons of different shampoos with different ingredients. I love the simplicity of a vinager rinse instead of trying to figure out the right conditioner. I am so glad I tried this product. I also discovered a steam hot roller set and I'm really looking forward to my new hair health for 2018. The apple cider vinegar step really is important.
On my second order of this voodoo bamboo shampoo bar. Needless to say it is my favorite product from beautyandthebees. I even use it as a body bar. Leaves hair effectively cleansed, soft, and full of body. Has worked wonders on my scalp psoriasis as it has soothed the inflammation without the use of steroids. I also love the subtle fragrance and conditioning benefits from the honey base in all of their formulas. Best part is that it feeds your hair with all natural ingredients. So your overall hair health is cumulative. So goodbye to traditional chemical shampoos and hello to mother nature as it is intended.
I love everything about this shampoo. It comes as a bar so no plastic. No SLS, so saving the planet and your hair from being stripped of natural oils. My scalp feels clean and soothed; No itchy irritated skin. If you are not used to SLS free shampoos start with the bottled version first. Your hair will feel different when wet from what you are used to but it’s soft and manageable when dry. I love the charcoal / anise smell.
Also listen up out there everyone. Don’t shampoo your hair everyday!! I switch this out with conditioner only. Yep you can get clean feeling hair with that too. 1 day shampoo 2 days conditioner. Start with bottles then help save the planet and move to bars. Your hair will lose that brassy straw feel.
Lastly do get a separate soap holder. This will stain if laying there but don’t worry does not change the color of your hair. My husband made me one from wood and natural dye.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this bar. I use it on my hair and my body. I suffer from multiple chemical allergies and a gluten allergy, which wrecked my skin. Sores, blisters, dry, itchy, bumpy just depressing. One week of washing with my Voodoo bar and babies would envy my skin!!! Soft, smooth even the cellulite has improved, SERIOUSLY! I am 55 years old and this is the best my skin has felt in years. Oh, no lotion I do not need to clog my pores trying to moisturize my skin. This product has done it all for me. Soft, full, shiny hair with my natural waves and curls intact. No conditioner needed. Thank you Beauty and the Bees!!!!
This is my first time using a shampoo bar, and I've waited a while to write this review to really get a sense for how my hair behaves. The smell is very licoricey, but not overpowering, and you can't tell after your hair has dried at all, it just smells clean. The best way to describe it is it makes my hair feel "squeaky clean" in the shower. Since it's the summer time I haven't been blow drying my hair, so still waiting to see how that goes.
The pros:
My hair is very thin, fine, and long. This shampoo bar makes my hair super shiny, thicker than normal, and NO tangles when I brush it out! I love it for this reason, and I don't use any conditioner anymore (I have been using the ACV rinse, but I'll get to that in a second). I've gotten a lot of compliments on how my hair has been looking since using the bar. I have also found I don't require as much dry-shampoo on non-washing days. I typically wash my hair about 2-3 times a week, and my second day hair has not needed any boost from dry-shampoo.
The cons:
I've been using an ACV rinse after the shampoo bar, and honestly this is really annoying. I'm hoping that as my hair gets used to the shampoo bar this is something I can give up. I think it has been slowly improving without the ACV rinse, but I still use it every time I was my hair. One of my main criterias was a bar without sulfates, and this seemed to be one of the only ones I could find, even though others have said you don't need an ACV rinse with JR Liggetts for example. Before using the ACV rinse I can tell my hair is super tangled, but rinsing makes it a lot softer and smoother.
Another con is storage. I haven't figured out a great way to do this yet but it DEFINITELY melts if you just leave it in the shower. Right now I take it out when I'm not using it and leave it in a soap dish on the counter.

Transitioning to healthy hair routine: If you using synthetic hair products, it's important to use an Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse or Apple Silk Rinse for best results. Use 3 tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar in a quart of water and rinse your hair after shampooing and conditioning to remove the chemical build up in your hair. This process will restore the PH balances to your scalp for super healthy hair.

Travel Friendly! Restores hair to healthy condition, relieves dandruff, helps hair grow strong, and perfect for transitioning to a shampoo bar. Includes the fruit acids found in lemons and apples, which are also used in foods for that mouth puckering sour taste, with real silk powder for an added smooth silky feel. It brightens and softens, to leave hair cuticles roughened by washing, flat and smooth for maximum shine potential.
Seems to get my itchy scalp under control. Immediately after using it, the itchiness went away. It seems gentle enough to use on a regular basis as well. Finally, given that I can easily slice off a smaller portion and put in my carry on luggage, I don’t need to worry about the whole liquids on a plane thing. Overall very satisfied.
I had just about given up on my scalp when I decided to try this shampoo bar. (I'll be honest, I bought it for the rad packaging).
Having dealt with horrible scalp issues (red, inflamed, scaly, etc.) my entire life, I did get it somewhat under control via diet, but would still have occasional flare ups.
This shampoo bar is the only thing that calms my inflamed scalp if I'm exposed to something I'm allergic to. I've tried prescription shampoos, otc shampoos, no poo, cowashing - everything. This is seriously the most awesome product for someone suffering from psoriasis ever.
I've even recommended it to my mom, who has seen great results in calming down her scalp as well.
My first shampoo bar and i absolutely love it! It left my hair feeling clean and it didnt take much to get a small lather going. I also used it on my body with no irritation. It will leave your hair feeling a bit waxy after you've rinsed it out. No worries here. I used a beer conditioner bar i also tried for the firat time and the waxiness went away. I then used it with no conditioning afterwards and the waxiness went away when my hair dried (i use a towel or let it dry overtime). The scent is also lovely. It has a black licorice like scent and im no fan of the stuff but this is my exception.
Would definitely buy again
This shampoo is great, it does smell strongly of black liquorice but it doesn't make your hair smell that way. Your hair will have an almost rubbery feeling when you lather and rinse it but once you dry it it'll feel good. I haven't noticed any film or anything else people are saying but my hair is short so maybe that's why.
Not the first shampoo bar I've tried, but I am happier with it than the others I've tried. Rinse clean with minimal tangles in my long hair. Only complaint would be that it kind of smells like black licorice.
