We sent samples of the Honey Mud Styling Cream Pomade to 30 people and here’s what they had to say:
“I love the texture of the pomade – perfect balance between a hair wax and hair mud. I love that it rinses out easily and therefore reduces the need to wash my hair as often (with Beauty and the Bees Beer Shampoo Bar and Conditioning Bar).”
“It is a wonderful product that has the right feel without being greasy nor dry – the perfect balance. It holds my style all day and rinses out easily the next morning without leaving the hair feeling dirty or greasy. Amazing that this is a natural, chemical free product that works perfectly for styling and body.”
“You can keep styling hair without needing to apply more. No more need for hairspray to keep shape. No stickiness. When can we purchase this product? :-)”
“Smell…omg I want to lick it. Also the texture, not too thick or heavy, not oily.” “It shapes my curls & controls the frizz with a natural, soft feel.”
“I really loved the way it softened so easily and wasn’t disgustingly sticky like most of these types of products. Loved the scent!”
“I loved the smell and the fact that it wasn’t sticky, the texture is great and it has good hold.”
“Such a tiny amount goes a long way. It doesn’t dry out crunchy or powdery like other styling products, and actually feels like it is adding something to the condition of your hair.”
“The smell, the feel, the ease of use. I have fine flyaway hair which it holds in place with a natural feel and gives volume and height where I need it. Just a fabulous natural product.”
“It’s natural and hasn’t got any chemicals and unlike any other hair styling product it doesn’t smell toxic and isn’t harsh on the hair. It smells natural, is effective in helping to style the hair andespecially works well to comb, smooth, shape and hold eyebrows!”
“I feel like my hair looks shiny and healthy using the pomade along with the shampoo bars.”
“Great to have a natural non-sticky product to use which gives my hair body and holding ability. Feel very lucky to have had this opportunity! Thank you I really love your products and frequently make attempts to convert people I know!”
“I love it. It’s great for taming the fluffy bits, smoothing down flyaways, using as something akin to a leave-in conditioner when thinned out with water. I wouldn’t change a thing!”

How to use a shampoo bar
Kacie –
I got this bar in my sample pack and so far it’s been my favourite. Has a nice subtle lemon scent and helped my dry itchy scalp so much. My hair looked fuller rather than flat and dull and I also could go longer between washes.

Yes finally!!! A zero waste shampoo bar to help brighten my blonde hair!
I have naturally blonde hair which can for a bit brassy from time to time so I am always having to use a toner which is FULL of chemicals, and not only and I putting harsh chemicals into my scalp but putting them down the drain.
Making the switch was a no brainer, I have been using shampoo and conditioner bars for about 6 months now so it was a breeze for me.
The end result was amazing! My hair is looking lighter and feeling amazing, I did also pair it with some apple cider vinegar and my conditioner bar. I cannot recommend this product enough.
So thank you for helping eliminate another nasty chemical ridden and plastic hoarding product from my hair routine! 🙂

I bought the sample pack of shampoos for travel and have read about the benefits and would really like to switch to them long term as I like the philosophy and environmental benefits. I have fine blonde hair that tends toward oiliness. I have tried most of the ones in the sample pack including the lemon and chamomile bar. Reading all the reviews it feels like the emperor’s new clothes. I had the initial gunky phase for a couple of weeks and that improved and the apple cider vinegar rinse helps my hair feel smooth and it doesn’t tangle much but unfortunately after 7 weeks so far I can’t get my hair to look clean – it looks completely greasy even just after it has washed and air dried. It smells clean but looks oily and coated. I have tried using the vinegar rinse before and after the shampoo bar. Used before my hair is slightly less greasy but I think the shampoo doesn’t wash out properly. Used after my hair is soft but looks really greasy, like it would have if I hadn’t washed it for about 4 days using the conventional shampoos. I would really love to have the results that others describe. I am not sure if it just takes longer for some people or if the shampoo is too heavy for my hair or some other reason.

Hi Karen,
I would recommend trying one of the Healthy Hair Starter Packs and choosing one’s you haven’t yet tried, it might just be you haven’t found the right one for you yet, this pack also gives samples of the Honey Silk or Beer Conditioners and the Apple Silk Clarifying Rinse which people have said helps a lot with the transition period. The best part is if you subscribe to our Newsletter they are on special at the moment. I hope this helps. 🙂

This is the first natural hair care product I have used. The first couple of times I washed my hair, it did feel very tacky and gunky, but after only a week it feels squeaky clean and soft. Easy to use and a nice light scent. I do have sensitive skin and it is a but harsh on my face, but otherwise absolutely love it.

The shampoo bar is fab! The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is that my request for no plastic packaging was ignored, I really appreciate that the bars themselves are packaged in a recyclable material but the postbag was unfortunately not. Any old second hand box would do fine for me. I would also have appreciated the option to opt out of the free conditioner sample as I do not use conditioner (only ACV rinse) and while the the bee was cute it also arrived in a tiny plastic bag. Still and awesome product though, I like to support the little local guys where I can. Thanks Beauty & the bees! 🙂

Beautiful! My hair feels very soft and clean and no need for conditioner. I love beauty and the bees!

I’ve just started using the lemon and camomile shampoo bar and my hair is clean and soft. It took me a few tries but I have a routine which works now. I use the shampoo first, rinse with 1 teaspn of apple cider & herb rinse + water and then finish with the honey conditioning bar. I have curly blonde hair and I find this order works for me. Great products.
Louise –
I love this shampoo. The lemon scent is so refreshing and my hair is so soft. It also brings out the natural blonde colours I have in my hair.

The Lemon and chamomile shampoo bar with the apple cider rinse and moisture face bar are my favorite products. The natural ingredients, fantastic feel and ease of using them is so great. I would never go back to using other products.
I have been using Beauty and the Bees for seven months now and just love every product I try. I thank my daughter for introducing me to your company and I tell everyone about you and how wonderful your products are.

Great products (shampoo bars really do work!) with an easy to use online shopping system and incredibly speedy postage within Australia… 2 days from Tasmania to Perth is pretty damned good to me. Friendly mob that like to surprise you with small samples – quite a joy to experience their packages.

I have been using these product now for about a year and just loving them, from the goats milk soap, shampoo bars/apple cider rinse, body soaps, scrubs, hand cream, body cream, face cream, eye care oil, hair shine, lip balm and Aqua Flora Toning Mist (my personnel favorite). The product and advice is fantastic, I can truly say I have never been a person who has stuck to any skin care product, but there is something about this one and the results speak for themselves, my skin feels great and I have noticed the decrease in wrinkles around my face, I just feel healthier not putting chemical on my body and my hair is shinny, healthy and growing with no skin irritation which I have been suffering with for years.

I ordered a shampoo bar a few weeks ago. I loved it so much that I decided to place another order. The order arrived the next day! I love the products- my scalp has never felt so good, all of the normal shampoos especially the so called anti-dandruff ones used to aggravate my scalp. I cant wait to try the doggy bar on my dog. I will be making another order in the future.

I love this product. My hair has never been shinier, softer or blonder! I will NEVER go back to using petrolium based shampoos, I even take a bar along to my hair appointments and ask my hairdresser to use it when she washes my hair!

I really loved your products. I purchased the chamomile lemon shampoo bar and it leaves my hair soft and is not irritating to my scalp. I was also sent the beer shampoo and goats milk soap as a sample and also loved both of them. Its good to finally find a company that is actually 100% natural.

I have been using this Lemon and Chamomile Shampoo Bar and apple cider vinegar rinse on my grey hair for over a month now and I love it!
my hair is shiny, clean and manageable too. Wonderful product…thank you!

I have been using your Lemon and Chamomile Shampoo Bar followed by a vinegar rinse for three years now and I will never return to regular shampoo and conditioner. My dry, itchy, irritated scalp has healed and I no longer have split ends between visits to the hairdresser. Thank you Beauty and the Bees!

The instructions on the Lemon and Chamomile Shampoo Bar warn that your hair may take four washes to get used to the new regime of shampoo bar and apple cider vinegar rinse. Well, my hair is just dry after the first wash and the commercial shampoo and conditioner are going in the bin! My hair feels great!
The shampoo bar produced a really nice lather and a beautiful smell. I didn’t need to use much to get my hair very clean. After the vinegar rinse, it was as easy to comb as after using commercial conditioner, but I don’t have that heavy, gunky feeling in my hair as I used to. The vinegar smell dissipated quickly as my hair dried, and I’ve just got the faint scents of lemon and chamomile left.
