The shampoo bars not only smell amazing, but in only four days my hair looks and feels very different in the best possible way. It's shiny, feels actually clean and not just coated with product like you get from commercial shampoo and conditioner, and I'm noticing that I am shedding less hair than I did previously. They're easy to use and seem to be lasting well (drying them out on a wooden soap rack between uses). I initially bought a sample pack and have already ordered more of the honey silk conditioner and the apple silk rinse - once I have worked my way through all the sample shampoo bars and figured out which one I like the best I'll be ordering more. Never going back to commercial shampoo or conditioner!
