Ok..I know most of you might not be aware about this…I am using this from the last 6-7 years and everyone in my family uses this. I use this at first while washing hair…It foams amazingly well coz of the shikakai base and removes most of the oil and dirt..and follow it up with my shampoo..and that makes my hair washing super easy and fast.
It is 100% hand made soap and free from animal fat. It is a black colored soap and it melts away easily in water. So you have to keep it away after using in a dry place so that it doesn’t melt.
MRP: Rs.20/- for 75 gms
There are no ingredients mentioned. But it says for black, long, soft hair and made from pure coconut oil and other ayurvedic ingredients.
Pros:
1. It is the best hair soap I have ever used. I have tried that famous shikakai soap long back..used that as a kid many a times.
2. It lathers well and removes all the oil..thus making my shampooing work easy.
3. I just need to shampoo once after using this even on oiled hair..and thus I save on shampoo too 😉
4. It is a steal at Rs.20 (It was 13 before, then 15 and now 20)
5. It is hand made and free from animal fat.
6. Never caused any hair fall or something and keeps my mane all nice and clean.
Cons:
1. It is a bit drying when used alone as its a soap..you have to use a shampoo after this.
2. It finishes up real fast but I don’t mind that at Rs. 20.
3. Availability might be a problem for some..though I get it at most of the local stores here.
Overall rating- 5/5
Would I buy it again- Yes I would..always…
Have you tried any Amla or Shikakai hair soaps ??
I am seeing this for the first time…In fact, just recently I was at Khadi Bhavan and saw a few soaps for hair..but was kind of sceptical as the thought of soap on hair was scary. Glad that this works for u.
