this shampoo is solid [SEP] i like that this bar held its shape and that it s easy to hold onto the bar is about the size of a small mandarin orange it lather ups my hair pretty well and has a slight rosemary scent to it i ll lather rinse repeat and go in with a silicone head massager i ll follow with my own conditioner i ll wash off the excess foam and place the bar back onto the paper it came in i did notice that the shampoo did slight fade my purplish hair and made it look a bit brassy so i won t use this too long often overall good eco friendly solid shampoo the price is similar to that of other solid shampoo brands be cautious with some colored hair though
