Peppermint & Tea Tree Shampoo 8 oz
Our shampoo is different because it contains no synthetic detergents; just gentle natural soap. Our great-grandmothers used simple soaps like these before the advent of synthetic shampoos. They had hair that was clean, shiny and healthy--without all the nasty chemicals. Your order comes with one 8 oz bottle of Peppermint & Tea Tree Shampoo, one 16 oz rinsing bottle (unless otherwise indicated), full instructions and information.

Where's the Conditioner?
Our products are a little bit different to use; it may take some getting used to. Instead of using a detergent shampoo (that strips your hair) and conditioner (that covers up the damage the shampoo did) we use a natural soap to clean and vinegar to balance hair's pH. The cleansing is so gentle you don't need conditioner, and the vinegar makes your hair exceptionally strong. Conventional shampoos and conditioners contain synthetic proteins and plasticizers that coat the hair. They have to do this to cover up the damage that the harsh detergents in the shampoo do to your hair. Our shampoo doesn't strip the hair of its oils, only removes the excess. You'll actually go through a hair "detox" period, where the synthetic proteins will be removed and you'll be able to feel your hair for the first time without these synthetic coatings. It will become naturally soft and smooth, and, as new hair grows in, it won't suffer the damage of the conventional shampoos. Over time, your hair's appearance will grow shinier and be stronger.
The Organic Peppermint & Tea Tree Shampoo contains sweet almond oil, macadamia nut oil, and jojoba oil for added conditioning. Jojoba oil is very similar in structure to our hairs' own natural oils, so it's a great conditioning agent. Sweet almond oil has long been used on hair and skin, and helps to strengthen skin and clarify scalp. And we've added sweet-smelling macadamia nut oil for added conditioning and softness. Peppermint and spearmint essential oils stimulate scalp and tea tree essential oil has been used historically to help itchy, dry, and oily scalp, fighting dandruff-causing fungus and promoting the healthy balance of scalp. We recommend this shampoo for normal to dry hair, even though, technically, there is no such thing as dry hair. Want to know why?

Leaves Hair Oily
I really was excited to use this shampoo. It lathers nicely and has a nice scent. I used the vinegar rinse as instructed and my hair feels squeaky clean; however, after drying it (without using any styling products) it feels and looks dirty- greasy. I will use it a few more times before I give up. I'm hoping it is due to the plastic residue from previous products. Even my hands have felt waxy. It's weird. REPLY: It sounds like you're experiencing some soap scum residue. Email us for some tips!

waiting for results
I have a month using it but no results yet, as my hair feel sticky. Reply: Azu--thanks for posting! If your hair is still sticky after a month, you probably have some hard water residue going on. There is a workaround--email us at info@bubbleandbee.com and we'll be happy to help! Or you can visit our shampoo help page: http://bubbleandbee.com/shampoo-help-page/

Love it!
I have very fine, thin hair (chin length) with a cotton candy-like texture. I am amazed at how this shampoo has restored body and texture. A little goes a long way and I love the lather. We have harder, city water with a water softener. I only use about 1/4th of the vinegar solution with each wash and have no trouble using a wide tooth comb in the shower. Love eliminating chemicals where I can!

Use daily
The peppermint tea tree scent is so refreshing! I have naturally straight long hair and the shampoo and vinegar rinse worked great the first time I use it; I didn't go through a detox phase. I've been using it everyday for a week now. It keeps my hair silky, untangled, and keeps good volume (this is important because my hair is so straight and flat!) throughout the day. I skipped the shampoo one day because it seems a little dry and clean but then after the water rinse in the shower, it became oily so I would use the shampoo everyday unlike skipping days with other shampoos I had. I would totally recommend it to anyone with similar hair type. There are no harsh chemicals and it leaves your hair feeling so healthy! (And probably is healthier too!) and the vinegar smell is gone after a good water rinse. I use the trader Joe's organic apple cider vinegar and it works really well. Even with my really long hair, one bottle of rinse was enough.

After 1 wash blah after 3 washes good
The first time I used this product I allowed my hair to air-dry and it looked and felt oily. Second wash basically the same. I then re-read the instructions/description that came with the shampoo and decided to give it a couple weeks as the description mentions hair going through a bit of a phase to "detox". Third wash, my hair was light and bouncy. After a couple weeks of using my hair is still light and bouncy and I think there is even less hair fall using this shampoo compared to my previous shampoos.

Great product
I cannot say how many shampoos I have tried but lots! This the only one that meets my needs.Most are too drying!

I love this shampoo!
I just started using this shampoo. I wanted to try something different because my hair kept falling out. I thought it was because of aging or genetics, but so far, I am seeing an improvement in my hair loss. I don't want to say what I was using before, but it was a an expensive and well-known hair salon brand. I never thought that it was the shampoo and conditioner I had been using! I love the ingredients in this shampoo. It lathers pretty well also. I feel good about using it. I tried the vinegar rinse but I didn't like the way my hair smelled. So afterwards I use some oil on my hair to give it shine and manageability.

Love this shampoo!
This shampoo makes my hair silky and lustrous and it stays that way for days. I was looking for a chemical free shampoo and with Bubble and Bee's Peppermint and Tea Tree also got hair that everyone compliments.

I have my real hair back!
This was an unusual process but works, and I love the way my hair reacts. The vinegar works great to soften and condition my hair but has not left an odor. So glad to be using all organic and natural.

like this shampoo
I like this shampoo, especially for all the moisturizing ingredients. i was a little worried about the possibility of build up from hard water, however. I'm not sure if we have hard water, but we do have iron in it, for which we use a filter. So I purchase your hard water shampoo too, and now I alternate the two, one one time I shampoo and the other the next time -- I was reluctant to miss out on the greater amount of moisturizing ingredients in the peppermint and tree tea that are not in the hard water. This seems to be working well, and I like the way my hair feels when followed up with a vinegar rinse.

Make a leave in Conditioner for Hair
Love the shampoo, but would like a leave in conditioner similar to the one Badger sells without any trace of Orange Peel as I am allergic to PPD, so therefore allergic to Orange Peel also. I do use the Vinegar Rinse but there are occasions when I don't want to smell like Vinegar and a leave in Conditioner would work. I have real thick hair and the Vinegar Rinse makes it even thicker and fluffier, which I don't need.

Excellent despite my very hard well water
I was hesitant to try this shampoo as we have high levels of mineral deposits in our well water. Of course I added baking soda to the shampoo from the start. I had a mild detox with some static and fly away hairs. I concocted a "leave in conditioner" made of 1 part glycerin to 3 parts water which helped a lot. Don't use too much, though, or your hair will look greasy. I also discovered that I need to use two and a half bottles of the vinegar rinse to avoid soap scum build up. After 6 weeks of use I felt the need to post a review. I LOVE this shampoo. My hair is so soft and the tea tree oil is very effective at relieving my dermatitis (aka: dandruff). As an added plus, I am not losing as much hair as I used to while showering! Many years ago I told a dermatologist that I lost a lot of hair when using a particular dandruff shampoo. She told me that was impossible, that it was "all in my head". Huh! I'm so happy I finally learned that she was wrong! This shampoo is definitely worth learning how to work with. Thanks, Stephanie!

Better than expected
I was really unsure about how well this product would work for me since I have naturally oily & curly hair. I must say I was pleasantly surprised by how well it cleaned my hair, how soft it was after it dried and how much less frizz I have. Thank you so much for always exceeding my expectations on ALL of your products.

hair feels so light
I've only used the product once. I mixed it with baking soda since I have hard water. It smells good and foams well. My hair doesn't feel weighed down. It's very light and soft. I don't however like my hair to smell like vinegar from the vinegar rinse that I used. It doesn't really go away since I can still smell vinegar the 2nd day.

cleans without stripping
Love the way this shampoo cleans your hair without stripping the natural oils . My hair has more curl then ever and no frizz evermore!
-
Best Shampoo!
I love this shampoo. I'd been searching for a while to find an organic, safe ingredient alternative and was skeptical when I tried this shampoo. Even my hairdresser loves the results (although he thinks it's from his products). The only downside to loving this shampoo is travel - we travel light and I haven't figured out how to take vinegar on a plane trip.

FAVORITE!!!
