Vanilla Almond Shampoo Bar
Decadent and delectable, this fragrance blend knocks it out of the park. The delicacy of almond is complemented by the rich, sweet vanilla to create a delightful - and delicious effect. Smells good enough to eat!
Shampoo bars are a great treat for your hair! Not only do they not strip away so much of the natural protective oils in your hair as some harsh synthetic shampoos can, but they contain several rich, hair-loving oils like castor oil and jojoba oil, to add moisture and shine. Only the driest of hair needs conditioner after washing with solid shampoo and following up with a quick vinegar rinse (I use 2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar in a quart of warm water). Don't worry, the vinegar doesn't leave your hair smelling like a salad - but if you prefer, you can use diluted lemon juice instead.
Depending on a variety of factors, it can take up to a couple of weeks for your hair to adjust to the new shampoo, but many people report their hair being softer and shinier straight away. Not to mention, a shampoo bar lasts *much* longer per dollar than a bottle of shampoo!

OK, not so much) instructions for handmade soaps - and an explanation of why it helps - check out http://foamontherange.net/2014/08/12/glycerin-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/ - short version: Keep the bar as dry as possible when not in use, and it will last much longer!
If it turns out that your hair and this shampoo bar don't get along after all, it also makes a great all-over soap.
