Application

Especially if you want to switch from a conventional shampoo in a bottle to a solid hair soap, you should consider a few things.

First of all, your hair needs time to adjust to the natural ingredients without synthetic additives . Depending on your hair type, this can take between one and a few weeks.

It's important to note that solid hair soap has an alkaline pH . Therefore, it's advisable to use an acidic rinse after use. An acidic rinse is quickly made by adding a dash of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to 1 liter of water. This rinse helps smooth the hair cuticles when rinsed.

Especially in hard water, this prevents the formation of "limescale soap." This is a hard-to-wash-out residue in the hair that can result from the reaction of the hard water with the soap.

There's no need to rinse your hair after the acid rinse; the vinegar smell quickly dissipates. Also, no additional hair care is usually necessary afterward, as the moisturizing oils in the soap nourish the hair without making it greasy.
