Dec. 2nd, 2014 01:08 pmI'll start shipping the shampoo out tomorrow. I've been testing it on my own hair for about a week now. It works pretty well and to me, at least, it smells nice. It seems to burn somewhat more than my regular bar shampoo when I get it in my eyes, though. If this proves to be the case for you and is a problem, but you still like the smell, I have also used it to wash my skin and it works well there, so it's not a total loss. I do suggest in advance that you use it first thing in the shower, as soon as your hair and the bar are both wet, and then put it somewhere out of the way of the water so that it doesn't get melty or squishy on you.
I will be making a batch of honey beeswax soap this week. Orange and cedar scent again, most likely. The beeswax I bought at Cambridge Naturals came in a pretty hefty chunk, so as soon as another round of essential oils arrives from Mountain Rose Herbs I'm going to try another scent combination if the sweet orange scent isn't your thing. There's lavender in this batch, and some tangerine oil; I may combine the two of them and see how that goes. (I'd have tried for lime or similar, but they're out of stock on lime.)
