Just right for my combination hair.
This one snuck up on me - I wasn't expecting to love it, but it turned out to be the best one!<br /><br />Earlier this year, I embarked on a grand experiment to banish plastic and move to shampoo and conditioner bars. Once I found a shampoo that worked, I probably tried about six or eight different conditioner bars in my quest to find the right one. It has been expensive, and frustrating, but I've learned a lot. This was the clear winner in the conditioner bar department, by a long, long mile.<br /><br />I have wavy, thick hair, with fine strands, and sport a really oily scalp with bonus seborrheic dermatitis spots and really dry ends - so in terms of a high-management head, I've got it aaaaaall. I generally don't condition close to my scalp and stay about 2" away from it - it's just too oily up there, so I'm only using it on the rest of my hair. Most of the bars I tried were expensive and not great - one of them made me super frizzy, one somehow made my hair oilier even though I never got it near my scalp, and four others literally did nothing at all. This one is hefty enough that it works really well for my dry ends, it tames the odd little frizzlies on the top of my head, it washes out well (that said, I might be purposely leaving a little in, because it helps combat my situation with the ends), and though it doesn't indicate that it's a detangler, this was the only bar I tried where I don't have to untangle a rat's nest when running a brush through when wet afterwards. Overall, my hair is super happy with it - it looks moisturized and healthy. Absolutely ordering again - only this time, the bigger-sized bar!
