Review (3/5): Overpriced & poorly packaged but no plastic bottle so that's good
I've been trying out bar shampoos with the goal of never buying shampoo in a plastic bottle again. Trying to eliminate toxic plastic packaging as much as possible. I do like this shampoo. It lathers well and I haven't noticed that my hair is dried out or my scalp itches or anything like that.
Really hesitated spending $22 on this small bottle but if it worked as they suggested and it would be equivalent to 4 regular bottles of shampoo then it would be worth it. So far I don't think it's going to last that long. My hair is just past my shoulders, I do think I have thicker/stronger hair than some but about half of my head is shaved so I don't have a whole ton of hair.
The packaging was disappointing. It has a metal cap you should be able to turn to open up the little holes and shake the product out. But the base of the cap on mine was not crimped onto the bottle at all so the entire cap just spun around. Since it wasn't attached properly I just took the entire cap off and dumped some into my hand to use the first time. Later I was able to get the holes open by holding the base of the cap in a pair of pliers and gripping the top with a cloth to get a better grip around it's edges. But I can't close the holes again by hand, it's now stuck in the open position. Not good for a product that's supposed to stay dry. I keep the plastic cap on it at all times it's not in use. The packaging design looks fancy but the quality is bad.
I'll see how long this lasts me. Right now, not sure if I'd buy it again.
