This is my experience also. I don't buy it regularly, due to the cost, but I've not found anything in the shaving soap makers world that compares.
Shampoo bar suggestions

I'm pretty partial to Lush's bars. I also have a vendor at my local farmers market who sells them who uses goats milk. Lush has had a lot of longevity and I like how my hair feels after use though. They also sell conditioner bars if you're interested in that as well.
I have been using Mike’s shampoo bars for years.
I have tried several, and Chagrin Valley are the best for me.
Interesting - where are they available?
I recently picked up 2 shampoo bars from the local Lush store that I buy my kids bath bombs at. I didn’t have any expectations. I don‘t suffer from dry or oily scalp, dandruff or anything. I just wanted to try something different than the “Live Clean” brand I’ve been rocking for the last few years. I chose a lemon and bergamot bar, and an orange, cedar and pine bar. (This is the one I tried first.)
I was amazed how after wetting the bar and rubbing against my scalp for about 0.5 seconds, there was lather flowing off of the top of my head. I placed the soap outside of the shower on a soap dish to preserve the bar, and washed my hair as normal. The scent was incredible and my hair felt clean, but not dry or stripped from it’s natural oils. Thus far I’m very impressed with this product.

I first started with Duke Cannon pucks back in August. The scent was mild, but I thought it performed well. I switched over to Grown *** Man and have been super impressed. The scent is stronger and it leaves my hair so soft (almost too soft for my liking). They’re pretty cheap at $7 a bar when you buy six, and each lasts me easily 2 months with daily use.

Great choice!
Another might be Mystic Water.
Sounds great, and tempting! Thanks for the heads-up.
Heads up! I made an inadvertent funny!
We’ll shoot. Those look great too. I like the sounds of the body soap too. I don’t see a listing if the sizes of the bars, though. The prices are very reasonable.
Yes, not sure why the weights are hard to locate on her website. Shampoo bars are 4.2 ounces.
Cool. Guess we’ll be buying from them. I appreciate that they don’t use palm oil. They’re the cheapest, too, and don’t seem to rely on fancy websites, marketing, and advertising lingo. I wish they sold a vinegar wash, though. Maybe I’ll just have to make one.
