Recommend me a shampoo bar for curly greying hair

Just that really! I've tried ones by Klorane and Beauty Cubes, and they just didn't seem to do much - my hair felt sort of ok to begin with but after a few washes felt like it wasn't getting clean any more. I've done CG before and know about the whole waiting for your hair to adjust thing, but this didn't really feel like that.

Can anyone recommend anything tried and tested? Also are there any actually effective conditioner bars?

Only curls do one which I quite like.

Hi @Hephebe Ethique The Frizz Wrangler shampoo bar and Ethique The Guardian conditioner bar are both really good. Both are quite pricey but last a long time. I have dry curly hair.

Thanks @SoapCollector! Do you find they give a similar effect to normal shampoo and conditioner or does your hair feel different afterwards?

I find they give a similar feel to bottled shampoo and conditioner but I do tend to look for very moisturising formulas so it may not suit every hair type. Ethique do travel/ sample sized bars, I started with a travel set from Holland and Barrett before i bought the full sized bars.

For a very clean hair feel Gruum make great shampoo and conditioner bars.

And Holland and Barrett have a discount offer on mini Ethique bars at the moment. It's a different conditioner in the travel set to the one I first bought.

In your situation I would stalk Brian May and see what hair products he buys.
