SHAMPOO BAR | New Hair
Natural solid shampoo for problematic scalp
Shampoo made using a cold process, just like our soaps.
The soap contains as its main functional ingredients shikakai, neem, and henna extracts, which have been used for centuries in Ayurveda for scalp care.
Shikakai has a lower pH, thus it does not disrupt the natural microflora of the skin or its protection. It is suitable for dehydrated skin, alleviates itching, and has soothing effects. Neem has antibacterial properties and is particularly effective for skin issues, significantly reducing the sensation of itching. Henna is one of the best agents for strengthening hair, promoting volume and shine, and cleansing the scalp.
Additionally, the shampoo is enriched with cold-pressed sesame, pumpkin, and hazelnut oils in raw quality. All three oils penetrate the hair fiber very well, making them excellent for regenerating dry hair.
The soap is scented with lavender and tea tree essences, which, due to their antibacterial effects, are also great for preventing itching and irritation, and help the scalp. If you have very long hair, we recommend applying the soap only to the roots and using a different soap for the lengths of your hair.
After washing, we recommend using our hair rinse - HAIR ELIXIR | NEW HAIR. If you can't stand vinegar, use the herbal treatment HAIR TEA | CLEAN HAIR.
Weight: 90 g (± 5 g)
In case of allergic reaction, discontinue use. Avoid contact with eyes, rinse with water in case of contact.

If you immediately think of long fields of purple in Provence, you are right! The richly branched shrub with small purple flowers and narrow lance-shaped leaves with a sharp aromatic scent originates from the Mediterranean, but you can already find lavender fields here in South Moravia as well. Lavender is very popular due to its beautiful fragrance and wide range of healing effects, making its way into our gardens or balcony boxes. It mainly contains essential oils and tannins.

Commercial shampoos contain harsh cleansing agents that strip hair of its natural oils, dry out the scalp, and create dull, lifeless hair. This forces you to rely on various hair treatments, conditioners, and other products to soften and repair your hair. However, the harsh chemicals in commercial products can accumulate in the scalp, clog hair follicles, lead to weakened hair, and cause dandruff as well as dry, itchy skin.
Almara Soap's natural hair care contains only natural plant oils, henna, clays, pure essential oils, and herbal infusions that are easily absorbed, moisturizing, and nourishing for both hair and scalp. Nothing artificial, nothing synthetic, just healthy natural ingredients.
Like classic soap. Wet your hair with water, take the bar in your hand, and create foam on your hair with circular motions. Spread the foam all over your head and hair, and let it sit for a while. Then rinse off.
Yes, and very significantly. This is due to the carefully selected blend of plant oils that naturally lather. No foaming agents are needed.
Our soaps are zero waste. If environmental protection is important to you, the reason to use soap is clear. Moreover, liquid products often contain many unnecessary ingredients that are only there to create lather, ensure proper interaction between components, and preserve the product. Plus, using a solid product is much more fun ?.
When switching from conventional commercial and organic shampoos, it is possible that your hair will need to get used to soap-based shampoo. This is due, firstly, to the higher pH that soaps naturally have, and also to the fact that soap is completely natural and does not contain the ingredients found in liquid shampoos. These include surfactants that smooth the hair fiber, which are also present in conditioners. Therefore, your hair may feel coarser and less smooth after using soap shampoo. It's just a matter of getting used to it. Soap shampoo is much more beneficial for your hair than commercial shampoos.
This is a common issue that many people encounter when they start using soap shampoos. We have many customers who have no problem transitioning to shampoo at all, but some experience difficulties even after several weeks of use, especially those with long hair. Since this is a frequent topic, we dedicate a longer discussion to it here (pdf, 200kb).
