Shew Review: LUSH New! Solid Shampoo

My fourth LUSH review is on the New! Solid Shampoo

“We call it New because it’s full of stimulating essential oils to encourage healthy hair growth. We put in refreshing peppermint and cinnamon infusions for a healthy scalp and stimulating rosemary and nettle absolutes for shine. If you’re losing your mane because of hormones or age, try New shampoo and see if it doesn’t do the trick.”

Pros: First of all, I love the idea of no packaging, one less plastic shampoo bottle that will end up in a landfill.  This lathers really nicely and smells of mint and cinnamon. My hair and scalp felt and looked noticeably cleaner.  My hair was shiny and I even got a random compliment from a guy who said I had “really pretty hair”, (he was with his girlfriend, awkward!) I’ve used this several times and there is still a LOT left, this will last a long time, probably 3 months. I also noticed my scalp doesn’t get oily anymore! I will repurchase.
Cons: None! Although one concern I have is I’m not sure it’s safe for color-treated hair.

New! Solid Shampoo retails for $9.25 for 1.9oz.

    This seems like a great product for me since I have a natural hairstyle! I would’nt have to worry about chemicals stripping away important stuff from my hair!

    I’ve been curious about their shampoo bars for awhile. My only concern is reaching my scalp with all the dang hair on my head! :P

    Shew – what do you keep yours in when you’re not using (since it’s no packaging..or maybe I misunderstood that part)?

  11. ShewNo Gravatar said on February 2nd, 2010 at 2:15 pm:

    I have one of those wire rack things in the shower and I place it on there. They sell little tins for the solid shampoo bars if you don’t have a wire rack.

    However I don’t recommend the tin because I heard they get stuck in there.

    Yes, those tins are only good for travel, I think. Not only does the shampoo get stuck in there, but it’ll also seal moisture in. I learned from experience -_-
