Kitsch Coconut Oil Conditioner Bar - Hair Conditioner For Women and Men - Deep Moisturizing, Nourishes, Hydrate & Soften Damaged Dry Hair - Silicone, Paraben & Sulfate Free - 2.7 oz

(Addendum to original review.). So- this shampoo bar did not help whatever weird condition is afflicting my scalp. However- I am giving this bar five stars, because Kitsch, as a company, is providing a level of incredible customer service that has become increasingly rare. All I can say is I now know this company really, really cares about its customers. So- though this product may not have worked for me- I am absolutely going to try other Kitsch products. I am happy to support a company that cares so much for what people think about their products. Again- the product itself was a pleasure to use. And it’s a good buy, because if kept dry, you are going to get a lot of use out of it. My point is: the standards of this company, and the quality of their products, have made sure I remain a Kitsch customer. And I *highly* recommend ordering from them. They are an absolute joy to deal with. Thank you. I always have high hopes for solid shampoo bars. I've tried several, but none of them seem to help with what is going on. Since moving to the Midwest from the West Coast years ago, my scalp has been really dry and, about a month after moving here, a patch of hair the size of my palm just dropped off the top of my head. This hair eventually grew back, but it will not grow longer than about 3/4 of an inch. I've been to lots of doctors and had cortisone injections (I also tried Minoxidil) and tried a million dandruff and anti-fungal and other treatment shampoos, and nothing has gotten rid of the dryness. It's not dandruff- the doctors let me know that. They just don't know what is going on. My scalp almost gets a granular feel to it. I've also tried many scalp scrubs, which provide some temporary relief, but the weird granular dryness always returns. I think the only way I'll be able to get rid of the scalp thing is to move back to live next to the ocean. Financially, that is not an option right now, so I remain stranded in the dried-out flatness for the foreseeable future. The positive reviews for this shampoo bar made it sound effective, and also studies have shown that rice water really can encourage hair growth. The shampoo bar went on sale for Prime Day, so I thought why not give it a try. The bar itself is pleasant to use. It had no obvious scent that I could detect. I found the bar held together, even in the stream of water from the shower. I initially used it by rubbing the bar on my scalp until it foamed up, then used my rubber scalp scrubber as usual. I didn't use any conditioner after the first time, as I wanted to gauge as accurately as possible the product had on my scalp. After my hair dried, I noticed that my scalp was once again covered in a weird layer of dryness. I then applied some leave-in scalp treatment, and that helped, but I realized sadly that it was looking like this shampoo bar was making the condition of my scalp worse. My hair felt fine- it didn't feel "stronger," but it felt clean. It was just that my scalp still felt dry, and strange. The next time I used it, I worked up a lather between my hands, then applied the lather to my scalp, as opposed to rubbing the bar on my head. I let the lather sit on my scalp for at least two minutes, then used the scalp scrubber, then rinsed, then followed with conditioner. Again, after my hair and scalp dried, I noticed the layer of dryness on my scalp seemed a bit worse. The next time I shampooed, I used a clarifying shampoo to try to reduce the layer of crud on my scalp. After my hair dried this time, my scalp was much less congested, and felt much cleaner and refreshed. So-- this product is just not for me. I wish it worked, as I can tell the bar, if it is allowed to dry, should last for quite awhile, and I was hoping to see some growth-boosting effects, as some have. However I am looking for something to improve the condition of my scalp, and this shampoo bar is obviously not working.

I love love this shampoo bar!! Hair is silky smooth without using any conditioner. In my “old age” my hair has gotten thin, lifeless and flat so I can’t wait to see how it affects hair growth. The scent is very pleasant, amazing lather! Thank you Kitch! I’ll be back for more.

Did wonders for my hair: thickens, triples the shine, and cleans well. Lasts over2 months of weekly use

The smell is very strong. I have a small apartment bathroom, and it completely smells like this bar. Even fresh open from the box with no water used. Even after it was used. Using this with the shampoo bar and leave-in conditioner. So far I do like the conditioner bar. First use, I did feel like it took a lot of strokes to get coverage. I like how smooth and soft the bar feels. My hair seems ok so far.

I love the feel of my hair after the first time used. My hair feels clean with no tangles, smells very nice, no oily feel. After using this product my hair feels thicker, shiny and healthy. I feel this product after just a week may be the best out of all the rice shampoos I have used. I don’t use any conditioners on my hair yet, this is as I said no tangles. Perfect size with many shampoos for a small bar. I have used others that fell apart after being in my shower this one seems to be holding up well. I’ll know more in a few more weeks. If things change I will come back to edit this review.

Lathered well but started to fall apart on my soap rack in the shower. Not sure if it made any difference in my hair growth because it literally crumbled to bits and I had to trash it.

I like this shampoo. It gets my hair clean and shiny. I have bought it before and I am going to continue to buy this. I can’t say that my hair is more healthy but it sure looks good! It’s a great product.

I’m impressed with how well this bar shampoo works on my fine hair. It cleans without striping, has a pleasant smell, and does not dry my hair out. My hair feels soft and clean, I do use conditioner since i shampoo every other day. Both my husband and i love this shampoo, it will be easy to pack while traveling on our next trip.

This stuff is a god send! Helps with hair growth!

The soap looks natural and has mild smell and foam as well I think using same conditioner bar will be recommended for perfect result.

My husband & I both love Kitsch's Rice Shampoo Bar! I especially love it because it is so gentle on my bleached hair (which is then coloured baby pink) & does not fade my colour at all! Since I tone my hair a very light pink it usually never lasts more than a couple weeks - shampooing about 3 times a week. With the Rice Bar it doesn't seem to fade much at all. This is the first shampoo (and I have tried many) that has not significantly faded my hair colour, while thoroughly cleansing it and leaving it incredibly soft - So soft that I can get away without conditioning it - which is unheard of with bleached hair! That said, I purchased the Rice Conditioning Bar as well and it is wonderful! My husband & I use the Rice Shampoo Bar from head to toe. We find it is a very good body wash as well - one & done. I will definitely be repurchasing!

Very good, strong pleasant smell. Lasts very long if mid long hair. Leaves hair soft and smooth.

This is my second purchase of Castor Oil Nourishing Shampoo Bar & Coconut Oil Conditioner Combo. I love it! Lets start by saying I am a 68 year old woman with long thick, corse, waist length, dyed dark blond hair… My hair naturally is very dark with Gray sprinkles… Think asian hair. I gave up my very expensive salon products to try Kitsch, because its was less than a third the cost of mine. The reviews were just so good - I had to try it. And what a pleasant surprise I got! It lathers beautifully and the conditioner feels like silk in my hair. When dried, my hair is extra thick feeling ( if that is possible,) wavy, voluminous and soft with lots of movement. No more frizz and my split ends are pretty much non existent. The only thing that is a con for me, is the bars do not last as long as they say they do and that is probably due to the length and volume of my hair, but other than that, I can’t say enough good things about Kitsch products. So I of course highly recommend Kitsch products whole heartedly. Do yourself a favor and just buy them and try them for a few months, you’ll be glad you!
