 Hi guys and welcome back to my channel, it's just Janine. Thank you guys so much for tuning in for another video. In today's video I'm going to be doing a product review for you guys on a shampoo bar. This is my first time purchasing and trying a shampoo bar so I'm very excited to share this with you guys and show you my initial reaction and give you my thoughts and opinion at the end of the video. So I purchased this shampoo bar from a company called Shangren Valley Soap and Salve Company. This is an Ayurvedic herb shampoo bar for strong healthy silky hair. So before we go further into the video, I just want to give you guys a little bit of background of the company. So this company is family owned and their focus is bringing customers a full line of all natural and USDA certified organic skin and hair care products. Their mission is to use fresh, sustainable ingredients to craft wholesome, safe, natural and effective skin and hair care products that are free from artificial ingredients and harmful chemicals. And to also harness the power and simplicity of nature to cleanse, soothe, heal and protect your skin. What I also like about this company is how environmentally conscious they are. Their products are body-gradeable and minimally packaged with recycled and recyclable materials. Their packaging is over 99% plastic free and their natural ingredients will not add synthetic chemicals into our ecosystems. The company offers several different products that you can choose from including shampoo soaps, regular soaps, salves, facial moisturizers, deodorant, body moisturizers, coconut free products, shea butter free products, gluten free products. They also have products for oily skin and acne, dry skin, sensitive skin, eczema, psoriasis, oily hair, dry hair, dandruff, hair loss and more. So for this video I purchased the Ayurvedic herb shampoo bar. This is the trail size version because I wanted to see how it worked on my hair before I purchased the bigger size soap. I love how they have it packaged in this little brown baggie, it's so cute and I also love that the ingredients are legible on the back, you can read them very clearly, very plainly and you can see that all of these are natural ingredients. If you want to read all of the ingredients just pause the screen right here. What I also found very cute and very thoughtful is they put a little card inside to tell you who packaged your product. So thank you Kate if you're watching this video for packaging my product. The reason that I selected this shampoo bar is because of its hair growth benefits and it's packed with a lot of natural ingredients that promote hair growth. Not only hair growth but it also strengthens your hair shaft, it supports healthier new growth, it treats dandruff and hair loss and it also has shikakai in it which is referred to as the fruit of the hair which gently cleanses your hair and increases bounciness and silkiness. This particular product is sulfate, paraben and sulfate free. Alright guys so I'm very excited to get started on the shampoo bar so we're going to go ahead and get right into it. So my hair is freshly conditioned and detangled. I'm going to do a shampoo I like to condition and detangle my hair first just to get my hair prepped for the shampoo because I don't like for my hair to be tangled while I'm trying to shampoo. Especially if it's a new product and I'm not really familiar with it. I don't know if this is a detangling type of a soap if it has that benefit in it or not but we will find out. But anyway so we're going to go ahead and get started. Hair is dripping wet. Just going to go ahead and open up the little baggie here. So the instructions say how to use this bar, there's two ways you can do it. You can wet the shampoo bar and just massage it directly onto your hair or you can just rub it in between your hands just like a regular bar soap. Get it nice and soapy and then massage it through your scalp and your hair. So I did not do a patch test I probably should have but I did not do a patch test with this product to see if it's going to irritate my scalp or not. I don't know, smells, smells good. It smells very herbal. So let's just go ahead and get started. So I don't know what to expect with this product but I'm hoping for the best. Here we go y'all of this soap bar. Once I applied it to my hair I know this very instantly this product is great for low-prosty hair. It just immediately penetrated my hair and it just absorbed into my hair and it was just it just felt really good. The shampoo bar is very cleansing I did feel that it was cleaning my hair, it was cleaning my scalp and the product that was on my hair all of that just dripped away. So once I watched this product out of my hair my hair was squeaking like it was that clean I could feel it squeaking between my hands and my hair. So it was very literally squeaky clean but it was not drying I did not feel my hair was dried out I did not feel my hair was stripped of anything. This product was very conditioning on my hair very moisturizing on my hair and again just very cleansing on my hair and it left my hair feeling really soft extremely soft and it just felt really really good just overall on my hair. Now previously I had already tankled my hair by doing just a regular conditioner on my hair and getting my hair prepped for the shampoo and the one thing I was looking for is to see if by applying this shampoo bar on my hair if it will start to map my hair up and start to tangle my hair back up and it did not. So once my hair still will see tangle throughout the whole process and I can easily glide my hands through my hair with this soap bar and it has a very rich lather which is another thing like it takes literally a little of this product it goes a very very long way and the more you use the bigger and the richer the lather it gets as you saw this big soap bubble on my hand. Those are all the positive things that I can think of that I experienced by using this hair bar the shampoo bar for the first time. The smell of the soap bar is it's not strong it's a very pleasant faint type of scent like I said it just smells like a very herbal scent it just smells like it has all those herbs in there whatever they smell like it just smell like you know just herbs. The only con that I could think of as of right now and even as I'm sitting here right now talking to you guys as I can feel it is there is a very subtle irritation on my scalp and I felt that really not long after applying the shampoo bar to my hair I don't know if it's just maybe my skin can just be getting trying to get used to it I've never used half of these ingredients probably more than half of these ingredients on my hair before so this was new to my to my hair to my scalp so it may take a couple uses it doesn't it's it's not bad but it's like subtle if it gets too bad then I do have an aloe vera plant fresh aloe vera plant that I can grind up mix up whatever and put it on my scalp to soothe my scalp if I need to I don't think I will but that's but that is something that I did feel and even right now it's not bad but it's it's very subtle it's very subtle and it's it's like a it's not a it's not a tingling like a good tingling menthol sensation it's like a slight irritation it's itching type of a feel I don't know I'll try this again and after a couple uses and see if my scalp get used to it but it's right now it's fine it's good my hair feels good I just put it in just a big old poof none fancy just put in a poof that's pretty much it guys I mean definitely check out definitely check out this company they have some really great products on there and just all different types of things just check them out I'll leave the information in the description down below so you can check it out I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you did please give it a big thumbs up because it does help my channel don't forget to subscribe and to share my content with others and I will also leave I also have a link in my description box also of my Amazon store so I'm not able to link every single thing that I use on my videos on the Amazon store because just not available on Amazon but a lot of the products that I have used in past videos you can actually go to my Amazon store and you can check it out you can purchase those products so until the next time guys I will see you on the next video bye guys
