While they clean quickly and leave hair feeling smooth, over-cleansing stimulates the sebaceous glands to produce more oil, resulting in greasy hair by the next day. Handmade soap, with its alkaline properties, gently removes scalp and hair impurities. The glycerin within forms a protective layer on your scalp, helping to regulate oil production. You'll notice your scalp becoming less oily. Massaging and cleansing your scalp with hair soap foam also promotes normal keratin turnover. After a few weeks of adaptation, you'll gradually feel your scalp becoming healthier, your hair smoother and more manageable, with less oil secretion, and it will take longer to become greasy. **【Using Hair Soap】 ** Have you tried shampooing with handmade soap before? If so, did you notice your hair feeling dry, tangled, or sticky when rinsing? Vivian has compiled extensive research and experimental results to encourage everyone to try handmade soap for shampooing, aiming for a healthier scalp and hair. This is a lengthy explanation, but please read it carefully! Investing five minutes can lead to a lifetime of healthier hair—it's truly worthwhile. Here's what we've learned: __Reasons for Dryness and Tangling When Shampooing with Handmade Soap:__ 1. Handmade soap is alkaline (and it's the primary cleansing agent). However, alkalinity can cause hair cuticles to open, leading to a dry sensation and tangling at the ends. 2. When rinsing hair, calcium and magnesium ions in the water can combine with the fatty acids in handmade soap, creating soap scum that results in a sticky feeling. The degree of stickiness is related to the hardness of your tap water (the harder the water, the more noticeable the soap scum). This is also why the same handmade soap can feel different in various locations. However, Vivian believes this varies from person to person. Some individuals in very hard water areas (total hardness 266mg/L) find their hair to be exceptionally smooth, while Vivian's home, in a soft water area (total hardness 30.7 mg/L), still requires conditioner for her long hair. Short-haired users, however, notice no significant difference. **【Correct Method for Shampooing with Handmade Soap】** 1. First, rinse your hair with clean water to remove surface impurities. 2. Use a foaming net to create abundant lather. Gently massage your scalp with the foam and then lightly cleanse your hair strands. Before rinsing, squeeze out as much foam as possible with your hands, then rinse thoroughly with water. Follow with a second wash; this time the lather will be richer, leaving your scalp and hair feeling exceptionally refreshed. 3. After rinsing, use a conditioner or hair treatment to soften and smooth your hair. Alternatively, applying a hair oil just before blow-drying can also effectively reduce dryness. For those looking to try handmade soap for shampooing, it's recommended to choose hair soaps with excellent foaming properties, effective cleansing power, and formulations that nourish and protect the scalp. Our hair soaps can be used for both hair and body cleansing. If you're not accustomed to shampooing with them, they can still be used for body washing. # Water Hardness According to the World Health Organization (WHO) standards for hard and soft water, based on calcium carbonate content: ● 0 ~ 60 mg/L is Soft Water ● 60 ~ 120 mg/L is Moderately Soft Water ● 120 ~ 180 mg/L is Hard Water ● Greater than 180 mg/L is Very Hard Water. The hardness of tap water in households is influenced by the quality of the water source. However, the piping systems and the supply process can also increase the water's hardness. This is especially true in areas with harder water, where pipe buildup can contribute to higher concentrations of hardness minerals. **【Single Soap Gift Box】**(Can only be added with a handmade soap purchase) *【Add-on】Packaging - Single Soap Floral DIY Gift Box | Does not include soap cost https://www.pinkoi.com/product/RQ5wjJDD **Suitable for all Vivian's soaps.** *【Add-on】Packaging - Single Soap Classic DIY Gift Box | Gift Bag | Does not include soap cost https://www.pinkoi.com/product/khcyq3Mj **Only suitable for "rectangular soaps, square soaps, and carved soaps."** **Bulk Orders** Handmade soaps require approximately 8 weeks for production, curing, and packaging.

They are meticulously crafted using high-quality plant oils. The low-temperature production process preserves the precious glycerin naturally generated during saponification, which acts as a natural moisturizer. After a 4-6 week curing period, the soaps achieve moderate cleansing power, are gentle and non-irritating, and do not burden the skin or environment with long-term use. ● The colors in marbled soaps are natural hues from plant and mineral powders. Each bar is unique. Colors may fade over time during storage, but this does not affect the quality. ● Essential oils are extracted from natural flowers and plants. Their aroma may gradually diminish over time due to the curing period and storage. The scent of handmade soaps is light, or even absent, which is a natural phenomenon for natural essential oils. ● As handmade products, soap bars may contain air bubbles, which do not affect their use. ● This product is for external cleansing only. Avoid contact with eyes. If discomfort occurs, rinse with plenty of water. If necessary, discontinue use and seek medical attention. ● Store away from high temperatures, in a cool, dry indoor place to prevent spoilage. ● If you have any issues with the product, please contact us. **【Precious Aged Soaps】** Cold-process handmade soaps are significantly different from regular soap. When stored properly, protected from direct sunlight and humidity (a dehumidifier box is even better), handmade soaps that have aged are called "aged soaps." Aged soaps have lower water content, a harder texture, richer lather, and enhanced mildness, offering an astonishing cleansing experience! The creation of each handmade soap requires considerable effort and patience. Aged handmade soaps become better with time; in fact, handmade soaps do not have an expiration date. The stated shelf life is due to Taiwan's humid climate, which can make storage challenging. Many aged soaps are highly priced because of their unique cleansing feel, which can only be appreciated by those who have tried them. Next time you discover a handmade soap that has been stored for a long time, don't miss out on these precious [aged soaps]! **【Exempt from Uniform Invoices】** "Vivian's Just Love the Handmade Soap" is a legally registered business in Taiwan, operating under "Da Bo Design Studio," which is exempt from issuing uniform invoices.
