Fresh and Natural Hair Care Experience!

I've noticed that it soothes my scalp which is such a relief! It's handcrafted in South Africa and you can really feel the quality. :) The only thing is it can take a bit to get a nice lather but it’s totally worth it. Overall, loving this little eco-friendly gem!

Decent Performance

I tried this shampoo bar mainly because of the Buchu and Tea Tree ingredients and I think it does a decent job overall. It cleans the hair well enough but I didn't notice any overly dramatic improvements. One thing I like is it doesn't leave residue behind which is a plus. Not the most exciting product out there but it works okay.

Sure, it's not magical but the shine it gives is pretty cool, almost like a nature's little secret. It lathers up nicely too, which I didn't expect! My scalp feels more refreshed and honestly, I'm diggin' it more than I thought I would.

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.
