Interesting product, smells great!
This is an interesting product.  First, I love the way it smells!  I purchased it solely to use as a shampoo.  I have shoulder length very thick and curly hair.  I generally blow it out and wash it only every other day.  I blow it out because my curls tend to be frizzy so I am always looking for a product that will let me go natural some days but not be frizzy.  That said, I have not yet gone with my natural curl when using this product.  But I can offer some things I have noticed thus far.<br /><br />First, this bar does not lather, which frankly makes it difficult to spread around on ones hair.  I spend a lot of time in the shower trying to rub the bar all over my hair as much as I can.  I will say I think my hair is clean, or at least doesn't feel dirty to me.  When you rinse, be aware that your hair will feel like you just poured hot wax all over it and then tried to rinse it off with cold water.  It feels very sticky and odd and that won't change no matter how long you rinse.  I still use a conditioner after to limit the tangles.  Typically after washing I would put in a serum or oil before I blow out.  I did that after I used this bar the first time and quickly realized that was a mistake.  It left my hair feeling far too greasy.  This shampoo bar already leaves my hair feeling heavier and thicker as it is, slightly waxy maybe (but not in an intolerable way).  Though I don't feel like I am experiencing a build up of product or anything using this shampoo bar, I do find myself using regular shampoo at least once a week just to feel like I'm getting a good scalp scrub in and to lighten the feel and texture of my hair.  It's hard to explain the difference in how my hair feels with the bar vs shampoo other than to say the bar leaves it heavier, harder to run my hands thru, but someone just looking at me wouldn't be able to tell that.  It looks like it always has, doesn't look greasy or anything, but feels much different to the touch.  I will plan on going with my natural curl more during the summer and will see how it affects that look and feel.<br /><br />Update 6-18<br /><br />So I have used this many times now leaving my hair to dry naturally and curly. It definitely makes my curls less frizzy. What I am having an issue with is feeling like I get my scalp clean.  With no lather it is impossible to get this  product all the way into my scalp so I have to use a traditional shampoo at least once a week.  I live in Phx, it's hot, so I can't have a sweaty head.  It gets itchy.
