A Fresh Start for My Hair

I recently tried the new shampoo bar, and I gotta say, it's a pretty cool switch! The buchu really gave my hair that fresh clean feeling and the hint of lavender left a calming scent that seemed to linger all day it's surprisingly easy to use and left my hair feeling light and soft. I was a bit skeptical at first first time using a shampoo bar but it’s actually quite fun and effective :)

Refreshing and Relaxing Hair Cleanse

I recently tried the lavender and wow it's been quite a treat! As someone from Cape Town the buchu scent takes me right back to local hikes in the fynbos so refreshing! The lavender adds a lovely calming effect too. My hair feels cleansed but not stripped and I love that it's all natural. It's a bit different using a bar instead of liquid but I'm getting the hang of it :) Iit's been a fab addition to my hair care routine.

Thank you for your delightful feedback! We're thrilled that the Buchu & Lavender Shampoo Blok has transported you back to the fynbos of Cape Town with its refreshing buchu scent. The calming essence of lavender and our natural ingredients are crafted to enhance your hair care experience.

A Little Spa in My Shower

I've been using this bar with buchu and lavender for a few weeks now and honestly, it's kinda like having a mini spa session every morning! 🌸 The buchu gives it a fresh vibe, while the lavender is just the perfect touch to chill me out before I start my (usually crazy) day. I didn't expect it to lather up so much, but surprise surprise - it does! 💦 My only thing is it doesn't leave my hair exceptionally soft, but it does feel clean and smells amazing, and that’s a win in my book. xoxo

Thank you ever so much for your delightful feedback. We are thrilled to hear that the Buchu & Lavender Shampoo Blok has transformed your routine into a mini spa session. The fresh buchu and calming lavender are indeed a cherished blend, and we're pleased the lather exceeded your expectations. While the softness may not be extraordinary, we're glad your hair feels clean and smells divine. Your insights are invaluable to us, and we hope to continue enhancing your experience with our natural creations. Warmest thanks once again.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

How to use a shampoo bar?
  1. Wet your hair thoroughly
    Start by soaking your hair completely. This helps activate the shampoo blok and makes lathering easier.

  2. Apply the blok directly to your scalp
    Rub the shampoo blok directly onto your scalp 3–5 times, focusing on the roots and areas that need the most cleansing.

  3. Lather with your fingertips
    Put the blok down and use your fingertips to create a rich, foamy lather. Gently massage your scalp to remove oil, dirt, and build-up while stimulating circulation.

  4. Rinse well
    Rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water. For oily hair or after heavy product use, repeat the process if needed.

  5. Store your blok properly
    To extend the life of your shampoo blok, let it dry fully between uses. Store it on a slotted soap dish or in a breathable tin to avoid softening or melting.

  6. Enjoy fresh, healthy hair
    Aardvel Shampoo Bloks are sulfate-free, silicone-free, and waterless — perfect for everyday use on all hair types. They leave your scalp balanced, your hair soft, and your conscience clear.

Is your shampoo bar suitable for sensitive scalps?

Yes, our formula is free from sulphates, silicones, and synthetic fragrance. It’s enriched with soothing Buchu oil and nourishing botanicals to calm and balance the scalp. Always patch test or consult with you healthcare provider if you're unsure.

Will it make my hair greasy or dry?

Nope. Our balanced formula gently cleanses without over-stripping your scalp’s natural oils. Expect soft, clean, balanced hair from root to tip.

Will it leave residue or build-up on my hair?

No, unlike some waxy bars, ours is water-soluble and pH-balanced, meaning it rinses clean without the sticky aftermath.

The benefits of Sulphate Free Shampoo?

Sulphate-free shampoo is gentler on your hair and scalp. It cleans without stripping away your natural oils, which means less dryness, less frizz, and better long-term hair health. It’s especially good for colour-treated, curly, or sensitive scalps, and helps maintain your hair’s natural moisture balance.

How to store shampoo bar?

The best way to store a shampoo bar & to make your shampoo bar last longer, keep it dry between uses. Store it on a well-draining soap dish or rack; anywhere it won’t sit in a puddle. If you’re travelling, let it dry first before popping it into a tin or pouch.
