Hair soap 'Grapefruit Cypress'

Application: Lather the soap intensively between your hands and water. Massage the foam thoroughly into your wet scalp with your fingertips. This should create a rich, creamy mountain of foam. Then rinse the lather out thoroughly. Repeat the shampooing process a second time if there is not enough foam, as lathering thoroughly is very important when cleaning with soap. You can also run the soap directly over wet hair and lather your scalp. Most people do not need to shampoo the lengths and ends of their hair, as the foam that flows through when rinsing is enough. Try out what works best for your hair.

Tip: We recommend an acidic rinse as an alternative to a conditioner. Mix 1 liter of water with 20 ml of apple cider vinegar and rinse your hair with it after washing. Do not rinse your hair with water again afterwards, but gently pat your hair dry with a soft towel. The acidic rinse closes the cuticle, makes your hair easier to comb and gives it shine. The perfect alternative to a conditioner. The smell of the vinegar disappears when it dries and is no longer noticeable later.

Note: The more hard the water, the higher the probability that the soap will react with the limescale and leave small, white flakes on the hair and scalp (so-called limescale soap). It is therefore important that you rinse the soap out very thoroughly, possibly with boiled water if your water is very hard. A two-stage acidic rinse can also help here. In the first step, mix a stronger acidic rinse with 50 ml of vinegar in 1 liter of water and rinse it out. Then repeat with the weaker acidic rinse and do not rinse.

Pro tip: With the hair soap and the acid rinse, you save on shampoos and conditioners. You don't even need a conventional hair treatment if you regularly pamper your hair and scalp with an oil treatment. The best thing to do is to massage unrefined, cold-pressed organic oil (e.g. almond, olive or argan oil) into the scalp and distribute it to the tips with a natural brush. Leave it on overnight and wash it out thoroughly with your hair soap the next day.

Storage: Please allow the hair soap to air dry after use. It is best to use our soap stones or soap bags for this.

Disposal: Dispose of in waste paper bin.
