Great bar for people new to shampoo bars

I am a massive fan of shampoo bars, but this is the first time I have tried one of the bars from ecostore. I love that this bar is made in NZ, not tested on animals, and comes in just a recyclable cardboard box as packaging. The bar has a nice colour, and a good size for holding it while applying it to the hair. The smell of the shampoo is not very strong, but pleasant, and the bar lathers up really well. Sometimes shampoo bars can be a bit hard to lather up, especially during the first few uses, but this bar was really easy to use right from the beginning. The bar also lasts well, at least as long as a bottle of shampoo would. The only thing I was not really happy with was the fact that I do not feel it is volumising at all. The shampoo works well for cleaning my hair, but it might almost be a bit harsh, making my hair dryer than other shampoos do, and definitely not adding any volume. I still think it is good value for money, and a great bar for people starting out using shampoo bars because it’s so easy to use.

ecostore Volumising Shampoo Bar

Nice invigorating scent and I really like how the box is carefully designed and folded. I put this in my hair and day in the bath - don't leave it in too long or you will get itchy like me. Thankfully it didn't stay itchy I didn't use conditioner after this solid shampoo bar but I did have some left in from when I last washed my hair I tried a solid conditioner bar. I thought my hair was going to feel dry and like straw after washing out the solid shampoo but no it is nice and soft am happy with the product and having tried a few brands now of solid shampoo and conditioner bars so far the eco store brand of solid conditioner is one that seems rich works and smells good. This shampoo bar cost me about $12 I think and I have the green hydrating o e left to try. You get 100g bar which is very good considering size and cost of other brands. Even though this product is soap free it had a rich lather! I tend to run the bar over wet hair. Good product I just wonder how long my bars are going to last in truth a different brand I've recently tried is one for body shaving and hair washing in one it smells good and doesn't dry out the skin but I can see it is not going to last or be true to the claim of being worth several plastic bottles worth of products. I'm happy with changing to solid shampoos and conditioners so far though and enjoying trying the different types and brands.

Average shampoo bar

I was looking for a shampoo that was more natural and that didn’t have any added nasties in it. This product definitely delivered on that - however, I found that I had to wash three to four times to get my hair clean, and to feel the full effect of the shampoo bar. I also disliked how the bar felt when left in the shower (even put inside a shampoo bar tin) as it remained wet and slimy. For that reason I decided not to use a bar again but to rather switch back to the good’ol shampoo bottles.

Tips: Wash 2-3 times to get full effect.

Great Shampoo Bar!

I recently used my Beauty Review points to buy one of these Ecostore Shampoo Bars. Usually shampoo bars haven't really drawn my attention, but as I was going to Fiji for 2 weeks, I thought this might save a bit of space in my bathroom bag.

The first thing I noticed about the shampoo bar is the lovely scent. It's very subtle, but has a nice 'oat' type of smell to it. When you wet your hair, and then rub the bar on your hair, it lathers really well and is super easy to use.

From the first time I used it, I knew I liked it. My hair was left feeling really weightless and smooth. I have very fine hair, and some shampoos feel like they weigh my hair down, if that makes sense. This one feels good - like my hair is light and well-nourished. It didn't make my hair oily either.

So now that I am home from holiday, I will continue to buy the Ecostore Shampoo Bar.

About time.

I have been slow off the mark to try a shampoo bar and am now a convert. Firstly the box it is in is great as no glue it just unfolds which gives a nice sense of caring about packaging and the environment. There is a huge list of ingredients so hopefully all good.The bar is a lovely dusky pink and is a nice firm bar so does not dissolve at the sight of water and foams up quite easily. Not a lot of foam but enough to know the product is in you hair.I massaged into my scalp and hair and rinsed thoroughly. I didn't use any conditioner as I wanted to get the effect of just the shampoo and I am highly delighted.My hair feels soft and has a nice healthy shine and doesn't sit flat on the top of my hair as it is prone to.I have thin hair and this definitely gives the look of more volume.I am pleased to have a product that doesn't use plastic but more importantly it is a lovely product and works well.

Tips: One shampoo is probably enough but I gave my hair two shampoos and am so pleased with the results.If you can't store out of the water in the shower pop on a fancy dish on your vanity in between showers.

The Good Bar

I love EcoStore's Shampoo Bars. They are naturally pleasantly scented, lather amazingly well, and leave my hair feeling soft, and slightly volumized. (I do have very fine straight hair, so even a hint of volume is a win!)

I prefer to lather the bar in my hands first and apply to my hair, rather than rubbing the bar on my head, which creates far too much lather and reduces the lifespan of the shampoo.

Being an EcoStore product, it comes in a simple, planet-friendly box. Size-wise, it looks small on first sight, but it's a good, solid bar, made to last.

It seems pricey, but when you consider it lasts at least as long as 2-3 regular-sized bottles of shampoo, and without using plastic, that's a win-win.

Tips: Keep the shampoo away from the shower head, and in a dry place between hair washes, and it'll last a very long time.

Not for oily hair

I've been using bar shampoos for years, and picked up a bar of this ecostore Volumising one after reading all the BR reviews. Unfortunately, none of the previous reviews stated what type of hair the reviewers had.

I have very fine hair that is prone to greasiness (I have oily roots, oily strands, even oily tips). Sadly, this shampoo does not work well for us oily haired gals. Yes, it did give my superfine hair a little volume, but not much. It lathered up nicely, has a nice scent, and it cleaned my scalp and hair well at the time, but by the next morning it looked like my hair hadn't been washed - only 12 hours after washing it. :( Not ideal.

I won't be purchasing more. If you have oily hair, don't waste your money on this, rather get a bar of Ethique's St Clemens shampoo.

Tips: Store it in a soap saver to let it dry between uses.

Great shampoo bar

I really love this shampoo bar. I got it from the Beauty Vault to try and was not disappointed. It lathers up amazingly and you dont need to use a lot. It's smells lovely, and washes out really easy. My hair does feel a bit like straw after washing it out, but once I use conditioner it's great. It does give my hair a bit more volume too.

Tips: Keep it dry in-between use so it lasts longer.

A Lot Like Soap

I was really excited to see this in the last beauty vault as I have been wanting to try a shampoo bar.

Because the soap does come in packaging before you use it, I am unsure if it's really more environmentally friendly, but I guess the cardboard breakdown easier than a plastic bottle.

To use, you can apply the bar directly to your head or lather in your hands then apply to your hair. I prefer the second method.

The consistency of the bar felt very much like soap and I preferred the feel of traditional shampoo.

But they both left my hair feeling equally clean, so if shampoo bars were better for the environment and cost comparable, I'd definitely switch.
