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
M –
I have tried quite a few Bee Beauty samples and this is my favourite shampoo bar. Curiously it leaves my roots feeling a bit oily after lathering, but after an ACV rinse and once my hair dries, the oiliness goes away and my hair feels soft and silky. I guess it’s because it doesn’t strip away natural oils like SLS does, and the oils then reabsorb into my hair and leave it feeling moisturised. It also works well enough on my face and body that I can just take the one bar when travelling, although when at home I prefer separate body/face washes.

Thank you for taking the time to write, we appreciate it.
We are really happy the Shampoo / Soap is working well for you, the Apple Silk Clarifying Rinse is also a fantastic product if you find your hair feeling a little oily.

Another fave of mine from the sample pack. Ticks all the boxes that my hair needs. Love that I’m finding a nice variety of bars that work well for me so I can change it up.

I came across your soaps via the internet, looking for an alternative to Lush shampoo bars (they smell great, but utterly useless in your hair). After ordering the sample pack, and dividing them among my family, my husband and I agree that this bar is perfect for what we are looking for. We travel a lot, for work and pleasure, and often only take carry on. The ability to slip in a bar instead of 4 different products cuts down on weight. (Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash, Moisturiser).
My husband has eczema, so the soap had to be gentle, and all natural. Lastly it had to do a good job in cleaning hair and leaving it soft and shiny. I was so impressed with the soap that I publicly announced it on my Facebook page and know that fellow friends who travel have purchased some too. Normally when I get out of the shower, my skin is so tight and dry after using soap that I need to moisturise. This is not the case when using your soaps. I’m amazing.. that’s another product I no longer have to pack. Brilliant, just brilliant.. all this and it’s Australian made.
My two boys love the soap as it’s all in one. This means that there are less bottles and plastics in my bathroom.
So I’m back to buy more of this soap.. two to keep in both bathrooms, and one more to cut up and use as “travel” bars.
Now to balance out this review, the ONLY suggestion I can make is having a shipping option OTHER than express would be great.. to save some money on repeat purchases.

Thanks so much for such lovely feedback Dez, it makes it all worthwhile, and delighted that you are so pleased. By the way we do have other slower postal options, all available at checkout..?

This is truly a miracle bar of soap. I have tried giving my 14 year old son various soaps and shampoos and cleansers but they have sat in the shower barely touched. However, this Udderly Delicious yoghurt Lemon bar has been the turning point in teenage personal hygiene! Every time he comes out lemon fresh. His teenage skin is calm and clear and his hair is clean and shiny. Thank you for this transformative sensation!
