The ANSC Solid Shampoo for a Sensitive Scalp (100g)

Love it!

By: Anonymous on 25 March 2019

At first I was a little worried about all the comments saying the shampoo left your hair feeling waxy/greasy because my hair is more on the oily side, but having tried it I haven't had any problems with that except if I haven't used enough to lather up/given it a good scrub! I think maybe you just have to make sure to use enough... My hair feels nice and soft afterwards and I would highly recommend it!! And of course the lack of packaging is excellent. :)

Unfortunately not for me – flat, greasy hair.

By: Anonymous on 22 March 2019

I love this website. Unfortunately, this particular product didn’t suit my hair. I gave it a really good try but no matter how much or how little I put in my hair the result was the same. It made my hair flat and greasy. It smelt nice so I ended up just using it as soap in the shower.

Loved it so much I bought it again :)

By: Angie Keegan on 10 February 2019

Over the years I seem to have developed sensitivity/intolerance to a number of frequently found chemical. I had been using a shampoo for a while that didn’t have SLS or any of the other common irritants yet I’d started to develop what was beginning to resemble a chemical burn around my scalp. Feeling a bit at a loss with what to do I figured I’d give this a go. The lack of added chemicals and the plastic free packaging definite draw cards also Everything I’ve purchased from Flora and Forna has been great quality so I thought I’d try it. From the first wash the rash I had from the previous shampoo settled right down. No longer red and angry. My hair was lovely and clean with great body.... win!!! Every wash since has seen my scalp improve and now there is no signs of precious irritation whatsoever. I love this product so much that I bought another bar for when my current one runs out. It lasts a LONG time and leaves your hair feeling lovely and not oily at all. I also love not needing a conditioner. I have fine hair but LOTS of it. I highly recommend this shampoo bar.

NICE

By: Maureen Cowley on 21 January 2019

Being already a solid shampoo convert I've been looking for an Australian company providing ethically sourced ingredients and no Palm Oil. This is a really nice shampoo, my scalp feels lovely and my fine fly away hair has body and bounce. It doesn't lather up as much as we tend to expect but...it doesn't need to .. does the job very nicely without all the suds ; ) ... and so far is holding its shape and NOT dissolving away to nothing in 3-4 washes

Pretty nice

By: Trudid on 13 December 2018

I love the foam you get on washing your hair. It's a bit heavy for my thin hair but doesn't cause drying out of the scalp. I'm still figuring out a good balance.

Deodorant for the tropics!

By: Cate on 8 December 2018

Finally I have found a deodorant that can handle the fierce heat and humidity of Far North Queensland! At the end of a hot day, no odour! Love it.

Oily hair

By: Jess on 5 December 2018

I bought this hoping I could ignore the other reviews. Sadly it made my hair so oily. I lasted about 3 weeks but couldn’t handle how gross my hair looked & felt. It also didn’t help my itchy scalp. I’m now using it as soap & love the smell.

Not for my scalp

By: Paige on 4 December 2018

I actually really enjoyed using this! Unfortunately my Psoriasis isnt a fan. After shampooing the hair feels super dry and gross but once dried off its lovely. Ill continue to use it as a body soap because its awesome - just not on my scalp.

Amazing!

By: Jackie Adamson on 31 October 2018

This shampoo bar is absolutely awesome! I have short course hair, hubby has psoriasis on his scalp, my daughter has curly hair and eczema. We are all very happy with this product. It is so lovely. It also does not ware down quickly.

Sensitive scalp soap bar

By: Pam Banner on 11 October 2018

This shampoo certainly does its job for a sensitive scalp. My scalp has never felt better! However the more I use it, the greasier my hair becomes. I read that this can be normal for up to a month, as the scalp cleans out chemicals, but as I get my hair coloured every month, it means grease will be a permanent condition, so will have to abandon using it unfortunately.

Shampoo bar

By: Maggie Tolman on 8 October 2018

This beautiful shampoo has helped control my partners dermatitis as he washes his hair in the shower. It smells wonderful and is so gentle that we haven't used conditioner since we started using it 3 months ago.

Delicious shampoo

Love the fragrance, lovely to use, washes hair beautifully.

Lathers well

By: Theresa on 13 September 2018

Soft & gentle on the scalp. Lathers well, and brushing hair after shower is a breathe. The only reason I gave it less stars is that it leaves my hair with a slight oily look & feel no matter how thorough I rinse . I will continue using it as an alternate because I love not wasting plastic bottles & it’s cruelry free. Hopefully in time my hair will react differently.

Solid Shampoo Bar

By: Anonymous on 30 August 2018

Oh dear :( I really really wanted this to work. On the plus side the smell was lovely, packaging minimal and it didn't make my sensitive skin itch, yay! On the negative side, it made my hair look like it had never been washed, my hair felt coarse, heavy and greasy. I'll use it for hand soap but it's a no for me for shampoo :(

Great product

By: Karina on 18 August 2018

My husband and I have both been using this product for about 1 year now. No need for conditioner. Rinses out well, hair shiny and soft. The bars last for ages. Easy to take travelling too!

From greasy to squeaky

By: Tiffany on 18 August 2018

I have to admit to having gone through a journey of trial and error with this bar. I have very long and thick hair and found that after I used it my hair would have greasy sections that stuck together and looked unwashed. A google search and a few failed attempts later and I figured out that more is more. I need to super lather all of my hair, this seems to cleanse the oils in the soap out too and my hair has never been thicker or shinier! I’m glad I persevered with this bar and LOVE it!!!

Solid Shampoo Bar

By: Olivia on 15 August 2018

Was really surprised at how well this product lathers given it has no nasties ( which usually make it lather) Leaves hair super clean and very gentle on my sensitive scalp.

Super Shampoo

By: Maggie on 5 August 2018

The bar Shampoo produces a rich lather and smells wonderful. I have crocheted a sock and it hangs in the shower. Thank you Flora and Fauna!

Not for oily/fine hair

By: Jessica on 23 July 2018

My husband loves this product, but I have fine, naturally oily hair, and it really weighs down my hair and makes it look unwashed.

Love it

By: Anonymous on 15 June 2018

Found this shampoo bar very easy to use, I have long, thick hair past my waist and it cleaned my scalp and all hair very well. I did use conditioner afterwards on the ends of my hair but will try without another time.

Didn't work for me

By: Hayley on 26 May 2018

I really wanted to love this product. Unfortunatley, it just wasn't able to wash my hair effectively. I followed the directions and it washed the front sections of my hair quite well, but I wasn't able to wash the oily residue out of the back of my hair. I have long hair, not sure if that may be why. I tried washing it out 3 times, and in the end I had to resort to regular shampoo to get it out, 3 showers was enough for one day :( It smells lovely though, and I'll continue to use it as a body soap instead.

Amazing!

By: Keanu on 13 February 2018

I received my bar yesterday and after the first wash, I can so far report that it is fantastic. I have suffered with itchy flaky scalp for about a year now and have been struggling to find a good product to wash my hair, as most actually worsen my condition. It will be very interesting to after a month how my scalp is. I’ll probably report back to say how it went. So far, my scalp feels great, very clean and most of the flakes are gone. My hair feels incredible!! I honestly don’t think you would need a conditioner at all, as this bar is so conditioning in itself. I used as per instructions, washed twice and my hair is smooth, I cold even run my fingers through it wet without it catching (something I haven’t been able to do with any other product, not even most conditioners) I think I’ve found what I’ve been looking for. The fact that it’s vegan and waste free just makes it sooo much better. I am interested to see how long the 100g bar will last as it is quite small. Love love love this product!

Great idea but still need conditioner

By: Shari on 19 January 2018

Love the idea of a zero waste shampoo bar. The manufacturer has specified that you don’t need conditioner but when I’ve used it alone I end up tearing out my hair with my hairbrush as have given up using it without conditioner. Would either love to see an improved product that nourishes and softens hair as well or a conditioner bar to go with it.
