Ida's Soap Box

Coffee softens, adds shine to hair and also brings out the highlights in your hair. The caffeine helps to increase circulation and stimulate the hair follicles to encourage growth. The rich antioxidants can help repair damage and prevent breakage.

I was introduced to Chagrin Valley shampoo bars in the summer of 2006. I couldn't believe the difference in my hair after just one use. It definitely felt odd while I was washing (but I knew that was going to occur after reading tips on the site---thanks Ida!). Once my hair dried it had so much more body...

Most people think of henna as simply a hair coloring product. Although it may be best known for providing a vibrant red color, henna is also great for hair care. Henna is a natural deep conditioner that coats the hair shaft, seals in moisture and natural oils, tightens the cuticle, enhances body, adds loads of shine, and makes hair silky soft. The purpose of a Henna Natural Shampoo Bar is to get the advantage of henna's natural deep conditioning as it seals in moisture and enhances body, luster, highlights, and softness.

I love your products. I first discovered them a few years ago when I discovered solid shampoo bars, and was looking for ones without sodium lauryl sulfate and added chemicals (and ones that weren't as expensive). Today, I am hooked on your products and the few times I've had to go back to regular shampoos and conditioners, my hair has been a disaster.
