Jadryga Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 A few months ago I stumbled onto http://www.chagrinvalleysoapandcraft.com and was really intrigued by the soap and poo bar selections there, so after a long while I finally was able to go through with my order. The soapies arrived yesterday in a really fragrant flat rate envelope.My order:Rhassoul Yogurt Complexion BarCarrot Honey Complexion BarHerb Garden Shampoo BarExtra Honey Beer & Egg Shampoo BarHerbal Mist (Free sample)Used the Rhassoul Yogurt and Herb Garden. Holy guacamole! It felt a little weird at first... a little squeaky, which freaked me out, but a strong vinegar rinse set that right. Amazingly, I still smelt like Herb Garden, not vinegar, but then the vanilla powder I add to my vinegar rinse mutes the sharp tang somewhat anyhow. My hair dried completely this morning and it is SO soft. Even DH was impressed. I ran up to him and said, "Hun, my hair's so soft! Feel! Feel!" so he ran his fingers through and said, "Wow, it is! Your hair's better!" I know I haven't tried a lot of other soaps out there, so maybe this isn't really out of the ordinary, but this SO makes me want to start soaping on my own!

soycrazy Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 I have the nettle, carrot milk & honey & rosemary mint. I'm still trying to get used to them, because I have really long hair. Does the vinegar rinse help? I never tried it before. I usually use a conditioner with mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadryga Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 It helps tons for me. I'm not used to it still either... that slightly odd squeaky feeling after I rinse the soap off. The vinegar rinse helps a lot, especially if I mix it with a herbal infusion (hibiscus, rosemary, nettle, lavender). I toss in some organic vanilla to soften the smell of the vinegar usually. After my hair dries, it's SO soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
