熱製之當歸何首烏洗髮皂 Hot Process Herbal Shampoo Bars

I am always wondering how much do the good ingredients left after the soaps are cured. Do infused oils really work? I am not sure. But, I'll choose to believe the benefits stay in the soaps. So, an idea came to me. This hot process shampoo bars not only used infused oils but also cooked with the herbs in the pot. Hot process is really a good way to make some herbal soaps like these. After trying this new shampoo bar myself, I think it's really nice. I didn't like using shampoo bars for my semi-long hair. The feeling was just not right. But this one is quite okay, though I still need to use rinse after.

1. unscented
2. 3% sodium lactate
