Firstly, I'd like to thank Beauty and the Bees for introducing me to the wonders of apple cider vinegar (ACV) as a conditioning rinse. I cannot stress enough how much this has revolutionised my hair-care regime. Please, if you're reading this, just grab some plain old apple cider vinegar and give it a go (as instructed in the wonderful tutorials on the Beuaty & The Bees website). This is what I did and I'm not looking back. My severely flaky, irritated scalp has completely cleared up and my hair is so shiny (thank you!). As a curious convert, I will be purchasing the 'Apple Silk Clarifying Rinse' with my next order.

Secondly, I am so glad I ordered the 'Honey Silk Hair Conditioner Bar'. I didn't even know conditioning bars existed until I stumbled across this. I've stuck gold on my first order and this is THE ONE as far as I'm concerned. I apply this after the apple cider vinegar rinse and leave it to soak in for a few minutes. I then rinse it out according to how conditioned I want my hair to be (e.g. I was in a hard-water area a few weeks back and so left it in the ends, hardly washing it out and I had beautiful glossy hair). If like me, you have fine, curly hair that likes to go wild and a sensitive scalp, then you should definitely give this a go. And try out different methods to see what works for you (e.g. whole head vs. ends only, rinsing it all out vs. a bit out, leaving it to soak in for 1/2/3mins, using it daily vs. every other/third/fourth day, etc.). I'm so happy to bin my bulky leave-in conditioners and use this compact little thing. Mine lasted 45 days with daily use, but I used it far too liberally and didn't allow it to dry out properly (use soap savers or aerate your soap/shampoo/conditioning bars or else they will perish faster than they should).

Thirdly, the 'Tasmanian Wild Leaves Shampoo Bar' is now my new shampoo bar of choice. It's got all the good stuff sensitive scalp sufferers want to see and does the job.

Lastly, the 'Udderly Luscious Yoghurt Bar – Unscented' just feels absolutely heavenly on my body. Keep a hold of it though - it's so smooth it slips right out of your hands and around the shower like a fish! I have yet to try it on my hair having just learnt it can be both a body/face soap and shampoo (for sensitive scalps) - maybe the 'Tasmanian Wild Leaves Shampoo Bar' won't be needed after all...

I am such a happy customer because not only have I received great value products that really work and de-clutter my toiletry bag (that I can easily take on the plane or in a gym bag, weighing hardly anything), but I have also received an education on how to better care for my hair (and the planet). Again, thank you so much!
