Our artisanal shampoo soaps are handmade with carefully curated local, grass-fed, pasture-raised, and organic ingredients – proudly sourced from small family farms and homegrown here in the USA. What we can’t source locally, we seek the highest quality: certified organic, minimally processed, and fair-trade ingredients to feed your hair and skin from the outside-in. No detergents or surfactants are used in any of our shampoos.
When washing properly, our basic unscented formula is suitable for all hair types used as-needed with an optional conditioner. Some scents and additional ingredients on top of our basic formula may alter results for each individual.
Top 3 Tips for Beginners:
-
Please keep in mind that scent information in this product’s scent tab is based on majority feedback.
-
Beginners, we recommend trying our unscented shampoo soaps first for the freshest, cleanest, and most simple start. Beginners will also want to educate themselves on the possibility of a short detox period and the correct washing technique.
-
Our All-In-One Shampoo – Body – Shaving soap bars are also suitable for regular body washing, face washing (facial soap directions here), and shaving (shaving directions here). Our ingredients are LOW on the comedogenic scale – so your pores are nourished and cleansed, but never clogged.
Ingredient Details (read full ingredients list in this product’s ingredients tab)
Green Tea
Organic green tea gives this shampoo extra anti-oxidants plus a small boost of natural caffeine to encourage scalp circulation and hair growth. Green tea is made from fresh, dried tea leaves, which results in a higher concentration of antioxidants, such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). EGCG has many health benefits, which includes reducing hair loss.* According to recent scientific studies, It appears that EGCG decreases hormone-induced hair loss by prolonging the androgen phase of hair growth and slowing the telogen phase, which leads to the shedding of hair.*
Certified Organic Aloe Vera has many active ingredients and minerals to strengthen hair, its amino acids, vitamins, and minerals can contribute to healthy hair follicles.* Aloe Vera has enzymes that help break down fatty acids to cleanse your hair and scalp, assisting with improving dandruff and itchiness.* Aloe Vera contains a special chemical compound called “aloenin” that may improve hair and scalp health while decreasing breakage.*
Pasture-Raised, Pure, Hand-Rendered USA Lard feeds your hair and skin extra-nourishing balanced fatty acids and the world’s highest Vitamin D3 content, second only to cod liver oil. Lard has been used in haircare since medieval times for hair growth and hair health management. Our lard is carefully hand-rendered to keep its precious rare nutrients in-tact.
Lard is the 2nd fat in the world that is highest is Vitamin D3, second only to cod liver oil! Vitamin D3 is the most bioavailable form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D delivers a myriad of health benefits, including supporting healthy, long hair. As it turns out, Vitamin D3 is involved in various signaling pathways in the hair follicle and has a direct (and critical) role in the hair growth (aka anagen) phase. Topical application of vitamin D3 has been shown to render protection against damage caused to the skin by UV light. Vitamin D reduces cell death, promotes cell survival, and reduces redness and inflammation.
Since pasture-raised lard is lighter and softer in texture, slightly higher in unsaturated fatty acids, and higher in certain nutrients like Vitamin D3 – it makes a perfect fat base in our shampoo soaps, conditioners, and hair oils.
Pasture-Raised, properly fed lard is low on the comedogenic scale: it will not clog pores nor cause inflammation, in fact it may help with those issues. Since it is slightly higher in unsaturated fatty acids, it provides a more bubbly lather and a squeakier clean.
Our Lard is:
-
Slowly and carefully hand-rendered in our facility from the farm-fresh raw source
-
NEVER bleached or ultra-processed for a “white look”
-
Pasture-Raised from LOCAL and USA small family farms

Local, Raw, Farm-Fresh, Grass-fed, Hand-Cultured Buttermilk to feed your hair the perfect food – high in essential vitamins, minerals, proteins, and fatty acids. Full-fat Jersey cow buttermilk is higher than goat milk in lactic acid and has the same moisturization content. The famously beautiful Egyptian Queen Cleopatra was a wise proponent, bathing in fresh buttermilk daily.
Buttermilk is high in multiple different proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Farm-fresh, raw buttermilk can have dozens of naturally occurring probiotics along with alpha-hydroxy acids like lactic acid, which promote cell renewal and rejuvenation of beauty factors such as brightness, tone, and complexion maintenance. Milk is considered a “complete protein” and “near-perfect food” meaning it contains all nine of the essential amino acids necessary for your body to function at an optimal level, plus all the essential Omega 3, 6, & 9 fatty acids in balanced proportions in addition to most of the vitamins and minerals your body needs. And buttermilk is even better! If raw milk can grow a baby calf into a cow within a few months, think of what it does to your hair!
Our Buttermilk is:
-
Slowly and carefully hand-cultured from the farm-fresh raw source
-
When the farm-fresh raw buttermilk arrives in our facility, it is frozen and used first-in, first-out to ensure the best nutrient content
-
Grass-Fed and Pasture-Raised from LOCAL small family farms

Certified Organic Babassu Oil provides an extra foamy lather to build mounds of thick bubbles. This makes cleansing your hair an easier task without using pore-clogging palm or coconut oils. Babassu oil also helps maintain the hardness of your shampoo soap while in use and makes the bar last as long as possible in wet environments.
Certified Organic, Cold-Pressed, Extra-Virgin Olive Oil has been used for thousands of years to make the best soaps in the world and is one of the major components of our shampoo bars. Olive oil provides a rich, smooth, silky shine to hair shafts while also retaining a mild, gentle cleanse. Olive oil is unique in that it’s very moisturizing, but not heavy.
Certified Organic, Hexane-Free Castor Oil has been used for centuries to help heal damaged skin while also restoring new hair growth.* Also known as the “Palm of Christ”, its many priceless uses have yet to be overshadowed by any other known oil. Castor oil also helps to provide a thick, robust, and stable lather, while additionally strengthening the hair shafts and reducing split ends.
Certified Organic Golden Jojoba Oil is actually a type of liquid plant wax that is claimed to be very similar to our skin’s sebum, providing a light moisturization without clogging pores. Jojoba oil has been very useful for haircare professionals, lending extra shine, strength, and manageability to hair health.
Abyssinian Oil is very similar to Argan oil but shown to be better in some ways. From multiple scientific studies, Abyssinian oil has been shown to provide superior protection against hair breakage and heat damage in professional salon settings. Shine and manageability are also markedly improved when incorporating Abyssinian oil into one’s haircare routine.
Kaolin Clay helps detox your hair from the daily grime and air pollution from modern day living while also soothing and nourishing the scalp with trace minerals. This natural earthen clay assists with dandruff and encourages hair growth as well. For shaving, it lends an extra silky-smooth experience, but if a nick does occur – it helps stop and repair bleeding quickly. Just lather our soap on the area you need to shave and shave as you would normally (full shaving directions here).
Pure and therapeutic-grade Essential Oils are included for a more natural scent and some therapeutic benefits. Please keep in mind that not including fragrances will reduce the scent hold, decreasing the linger time and strength compared to what many are used to with store-bought products. Learn more about our essential oils we use HERE and read about this product’s scent and scent strength in the product’s scent tab.

Have a problem waking up? Just add this to your morning shower and you’ll be singing in the shower in no time. Great ingredients for gorgeous hair and skin. I use all my soaps for my face, hair and shaving my legs. What’s not to love?

This shampoo bar is so soothing! I’ve always gotten a bit of a dry scalp in the winter months, and this has completely cleared that up. I have tried out many of the shampoo bars and this one is my favorite. I only have to wash my hair twice a week when I use this one!

Oh my, every time I try a new shampoo bar, it becomes my new favorite! Lucky for me, this one is my new favorite. Not only is the smell super crisp and lovely, it leaves my scalp with a cool tingly feeling that I absolutely love. I have noticed tremendous hair growth and volume since using these shampoo bars. I seriously could never imagine life without them.

Love the scent, freshness and energy this gives off. It makes the shower smell like a tea house, and just wafts the scent with you all day. Mint always makes you feel young and fresh and the combo of the green tea is just great!!

This is wonderfully scented. It has a freshness, and is somewhat energizing with the peppermint. It also has soothing properties in the other scents. Would definitely buy it again.

I can’t get enough of this shampoo/body bar. The peppermint is so calming and the slight tingle feels great my skin and scalp. The detox stage only lasted a couple washes for me. I love the way my skin/hair feel. I have ditched all my other products and will be using these bars from now on! APPROVED

Love scent and the fresh tingling of the peppermint. Feels and smells so clean. Was a little too moisturising for my hair I think, but I would get it again anyway for the smell and clean feeling!

Hi Abigail! Thanks for you feedback! Based on your other review of the apple cider vinegar shampoo soap and the order history we have for you on file, it could be that your hair type doesn’t need conditioner or as much as you may be applying with our regular shampoo soaps. It could also be an adjustment period as a new user since you have a history of trying 2 bars? Please try to lessen the amount of conditioner used and see if that helps! We only have 2 options of shampoos made with apple cider vinegar so that will limit your choices if you keep getting the same results, I wouldn’t want that for you so I hope that helps! -Mariah, owner

This soap smells really nice and I like the tingling effect of the peppermint! I have used this for a month now. The detox stage was a bit rough for me. I have very fine hair and it felt very waxed for several days. But it finally came around and it’s allowed my hair to be a bit wavy which I love!

Just used this for the first time! I’m technically still in the “detox” stage and I love it! My hair feels so soft and is already less frizzy. It has a nice refreshing scent. Can’t wait to see how my hair continues to improve and to try other products! @oohchloeblog IG

This is my favorite soap so far! I have had problems with a terribly itchy scalp for a long while, and this bar has been the best at calming it. My scalp used to itch sometimes even just a few hours after washing it, but I can go a few DAYS after washing with this one before I notice the itch start to creep back in. I ran out and started using a plant-based shampoo bar, and boy do I miss this one. @junshu.bailey IG

LOVE the peppermint scent! After ordering a bunch of new shampoo bars to try, this was my first choice to try— it gives you that tingly refreshing feeling on your scalp and taking in deep breaths felt so relaxing. This would absolutely be added to my list of reorders.

I know I say this about all the soaps I have purchased, but this is one of my absolute favorite soaps. Considering the benefits of peppermint and rosemary, it is the perfect pandemic soap. Call me crazy, but I think it actually helps my asthma too. I am so glad I discovered Perma-earth, I am beyond grateful for you guys!
