Shampoos and Soaps ~ Maybe get a list started

Dread Maintenance

i can't use it in my hair either. i use it as a body soap though and its wonderful. no noticeable residue on my skin. totally addicted to the nag champa scented one.

so i was so excited to get my dread soap, and it smells soooo good. unfortunately it left my skin and hair very greasy like lanolin and I had to scrub it out.

well, it didn't go so well for me. i ended up with sticky, disgusting hair. i had to get back in the shower and wash my hair again. oh well, i guess i'll use it for something else.

I have tried the new Kiss My Face Peace soap and love it. it has similar ingredients to Dr. B's and lathers less than other shampoos, but smells good and cleans, doesn't leave a 'coating' on hair.

i just bought this yesterday in the pomegranate and acai scent. i can't use dr.bronners because it leaves a yucky greasy feel on my scalp and hair. if it worked for you and your hard water than i hope it works for me too:)

libby is actually the owner of maylee's garden. maylee is her daughters name. she has a store on artfire. my first order with her didn't go very well because she wasn't answering emails. i've recently purchased some new soaps from her shop and she was wonderful. btw, i can't use her soap in my hair because of our hard water but they make wonderful body soaps:)

i really like that one but i found that the more i used it the softer my hair became. i think it might have to do with the main ingredient being aloe. i'm going to hold off using it until i have a full head of mature dreads.

I believe that it is working for you. All shampoo strips hair of natural oils, which i think is great for straight/fine hair. Oils are one of the things that can prevent it from tangling/locking. I too use the Kissmyface and i think it is a good thing that it leaves the hair soft, but tightened (I wash three-four times a week)

i love that one too but its a bit too drying on my scalp. i'm going to save it for use in the summer.
