Increase bounce, body and shine with this organic shampoo bar made with Soapnuts called “aritha” in Ayurvedic medicine. Soapnuts, an excellent hair tonic, has long been known for its benefits for healthy hair and scalp.

Natural antifungal and antibacterial properties in soapnuts may help with dandruff.

Cocoa butter infuses hair strands with essential moisture to help improve texture, prevent breakage, and promote increased volume and hair strength. It is a natural remedy for hair frizz and people with curly hair often swear by cocoa butter for its ability to tame and detangle coarse porous hair. It also helps prevent hair loss due to breakage for those with fine or damaged hair. Cocoa butter may help replenish lost oils due to chemical processing, such as coloring and perms.

Organic babassu oil moisturizes and restores hair strength and elasticity, for shiny, healthy-looking hair and Kaolin clay helps clean the scalp without drying, improves circulation, and removes dirt and impurities from the hair follicles.
