Jojoba Shampoo Bar

Travel light. Great for bath, shave, shampoo and hand laundry.

“Your Jojoba Shampoo is awesome. It works great on my hair. It makes a lot of lather, is easy to wash with, and rinses easily. You now have another customer for life.”

Irene Armada, Miami, FL

“It cleans your hair without removing all its natural oils and leaves hair manageable. Gentle on your scalp. Is great for washing hair, and can be used as your soap and shaving cream as well!”

Jen Hill, Mythbuster Beauty Blog

“I have sensitive skin. I can't get over what a close and comfortable shave I get with the Jojoba Shampoo bar. It's flawless."

Jason Kolons, St. Louis, MO

“I'm enjoying the jojoba shampoo. My hair used to go from brittle to slimy depending on products used. Now it's clean and perky. No more bad hair days! Thank you so much for going into this business! I'm a faithful and content customer.”

Mary Granato, Ravena, NY

“Simply the best... We can't get enough of your soap... We are going crazy showering just to use it and our skin has never been softer. Last night I ran a test: I shampooed my hair with your soap and just rinsed — no other hair products. This morning my hair looks great — soft and manageable. We're hooked! Thanks. Can't wait to receive this next order.”

Pamela Ferentzy, Port St. Lucie, FL

Smooth and white, with a swirl of texture on the surface, Jojoba Shampoo is a gentle soap made with our basic blend of healthy ingredients plus a perfect measure of nurturing jojoba oil. Customers love it also for the hazardous chemicals we leave out. More about them later.

Jojoba oil, actually a natural wax, makes your skin soft and your hair lustrous. Jojoba Shampoo cleans your hair without stripping natural oils and it leaves your hair easy to manage.

To this mix, we’ve added the crisp scents of rosemary and petitgrain essential oils. These oils are notable for their benefits to hair and scalp.

Do I need a conditioning rinse?

Some of our customers say that, after shampooing with Jojoba Shampoo, they use an apple cider vinegar rinse. Wait! We promise you won’t end up smelling like pickles. They say the rinse leaves their hair shinier and more manageable.

Some rinse after every shampoo, others less often. The rinse works to remove any soap build up and to treat the outer, or cuticle, layer of hair follicles. Shake a couple of tablespoons of vinegar with 16 ounces of water in a plastic bottle. Pour the solution through your hair and let it sit for a minute. Run fresh water lightly over your head and towel your hair dry.

What’s wrong with commercial shampoos?

Commercial shampoos are often detergents that strip the hair entirely and then use chemical additives to correct the problems they create. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and Sodium Laureth Sulfate, often manufactured from petroleum, are harsh detergents added to create foam as you shampoo. The same substances occur in car washes, engine degreasers, and garage floor cleansers. If you experience eye or scalp irritation, or tangled hair after shampooing, sodium sulfates are a likely cause.

Two other petroleum derivatives, Propylene Glycol (PG) and Butylene Glycol (BG), work to deliver shampoo formulas, but they do so by soaking into our skin and debilitating the protein and cellular structures there. Consider whether you want a substance on your hair that can remove barnacles from boats and is found also in industrial-strength antifeeze.

Check your commercial shampoos also for any variety of parabens (methyl, ethyl, propyl, or butyl). These chemicals extend the life of bottled shampoos by limiting microbial growth, but they have a negative effect on our natural hormone production. Because they are estrogenic, our exposure to them may be a link to breast cancer.

For further avoidance of cancer-related agents, you will want to be on the alert for any of the synthetic colors and dyes. They are shown in animal studies to be carcinogenic. These additives carry the label FD&C or D&C followed by the name of a color and then a number, such as FD&C Red No. 6.

Carcinogenic as well are Diethanolamine (DEA) and Triethanolamine (TEA), used as emulsifying and foaming additives. It is the ammonia in their chemistry that delivers the toxicity. Ammonia is also capable of causing eye irritations, other allergic reactions, and, paradoxically, dry hair and skin.

Please let us know how you and your hair like our Jojoba Shampoo bar.
