This is my favorite soap so far. It’s rich and creamy and I love the scent. I use it as shampoo, body soap and shave cream.

Shampoo bars are here to stay. Convenient size for travel, no plastic bottles and leaves my hair clean and fresh scented. I highly recommend this product.

My husband and I have been enjoying the shampoo/body bar products we purchased recently: pleasant scents, effective cleaning of hair and body, made in the USA, no-plastic product, prompt shipping with low waste packaging. All good! The trade-off comes when you scrutinize the list of ingredients, which includes “sustainable palm oil.” Until the research on oil palm cultivation is more convincing, we will choose to avoid the product in response to widespread deforestation and human rights abuses linked to this crop. We will not purchase any more products that contain palm oil. Hoping that AVO has products without this ingredient ;-)

Nice scent, rich lather

I love the smell of this bar and the way my hair feels when I use it. It makes my wavy hair nice and curly!

Smell is big part of what makes me like a bar of soap/shampoo. I have to admit at first, I thought this shampoo was fine. However, the more I've used it the more I like it. It has good lather and smells great. I would even be good with a little more scent. It has been added to the favorite/reorder list!

This shampoo is absolutely AMAZING! My hair has never felt so nice! It also didn't cause any breakouts for me, which is amazing since I'm almost allergic to everything on the planet. The scent isn't overpowering and is so light and airy. I'm definitely going to buy more soon!

This bar smells so GOOD!!! It also smells so good. I smells like spring. It also works great for my fine hair that is dry on the ends with an oily scalp. It makes my hair feel so light and airy.

I love this scent! So refreshing and springy. The result in my hair is amazing too - full of body, shine, and bounce! I love it. It may be my favorite so far. Thank you.

I have used several different types of shampoo bars from other companies BUT have never got the results that I get when I use this bar. My hair is full of volume, shine and not greasy. My hair dresser told me what ever I am doing not to stop because my hair is healthier than it has ever been!

I have fine hair and some of the shampoo bars weigh my hair down, this shampoo bar doesn't and it has a beautiful fragrance. It's not overpowering like other shampoo bars.e

If you have blonde hair then this one will give you the most compliments on. I had so many people ask me if I had colored my hair or redid my roots after using this one. The shine is incredible. Ok so just a few days ago I colored my hair brunette but I will still re order this shampoo bar. It smelled great and made my hair so shiny and just overall great looking. I'm sure it will do the same on my now brunette do

The smell is heavenly and my hair feels clean and not stripped after use. It took about a week for my hair to adjust to not using sulfates. Now, my absorbs my conditioner really well when preceded by this shampoo bar.

This shampoo/body bar smells delicious. It lathers beautifully too. It is my favorite so far. I will be including one bar of this no matter what else I buy in the future

I have reviewed other Apple Valley products, and as I was looking through reviews, I couldn't believe I hadn't commented on this one. Chamomile and Orange Blossom is my very favorite! This was the first shampoo bar I ever tried. For the first three days, my hair looked and felt the best it ever had, with good volume, softness and shine. After those three days, it took about 6 weeks for my hair to adjust. My hair is very fine and usually oily. I love the scent and the way it makes my whole bathroom smell for awhile after I shower. I have gotten compliments from friends about my hair. I have tried other shampoo bars, but I always go back to this one. Love it!!!

I am highly sensitive to most scents, soaps, shampoo, laundry detergent, perfume, etc. but this bar and scent is my favorite, no headaches!! Just lovely scented skin. Add the jojoba oil to boot and you have a great light scent for summer!

I'm a huge Bella Rose fan and bought this soap on a whim thinking that it would be more floral. The fragrance was good but my hair did not seem to love it as much as the Bella Rose. My hair was soft but there was almost a stickiness to it. I'm using it more as a body soap rather than a shampoo bar.

This soap like all I've tried works fantastic! However for me it's too florally. I was thinking maybe there would be some citrus in it which is my favorite type of scent, aside from lavendar buttermilk which has enough vanilla in it to tone down the floral part. If you love the smell of orange blossoms, this is for you!

I love the smell, I love the feel on my skin. It does an awesome job on my hair, keeping it silky and soft and smelling really good (my husband tells me my hair smells good...heh heh). Thanks for a bunch of great products. Keep 'em coming.

I've been using this bar for over a year...it's the best one for my fine, oily hair. I can go longer between washings but it doesn't dry out my hair. I gave it a 4 only because I don't love the scent.

I have been ordering this bar over & over for well over 2 (perhaps 3?) years now. I just love the scent combination on this one, it is like no other bar. I find it very soothing & relaxing. Even though this is a shampoo bar, it is very moisturizing to the skin. I love it so much, that I just recently gave a friend this particular bar to introduce her to Apple Valley:) I cannot comment as to how it works as a shampoo because we only use all the bars, shampoo or body bar, as body bars only. This is only because we have hard water.

I got this bar (among MANY!!!) and am loving the scent. It goes so well with the limited edition jojoba of the same name. Do you think you might just make this scent in a whipped body butter and/or the lotion bars? I wish I would have ordered more of the jojoba oil, now!

The smell of this is quite nice but even better is how it works with my fine hair. My scalp tends to be oily but my hair itself is very fine and lacks body. This cleans my scalp wonderfully and adds some really nice, full body to my hair. This is my go to shampoo bar!

I love the smell of this shampoo bar! It was delightful all day long and so much preferred to synthetic fragrances. My hair isn't adjusting as well as I'd like and I don't yet enjoy the feel of my hair after using it, but hopefully with time it will. Nice hard bar after multiple uses. Super fast shipping!

I've used and tried many 'healthy' soaps and Apple Valley Natural Soaps are, by far, the very best! Fast shipping and great customer service too with samples that we love!

My first time using solid shampoo and very pleased with it. It rinses off nicely and leave hair soft and manageable.

This one of my favorites. Love it :)

This shampoo bar worked way better on my hair than any shampoo I've ever tried. It stripped out all the buildup and left my hair silky soft. I usually have to use baking soda to get my hair like this. I will never use anything else!

I just got my shampoo bar and have used it twice. Its really weird to have my hair feel so different, but my naturally curly hair isn't as frizzy and dry looking already. I can't wait for the transition period to be over....i'm thinking my hair will LOVE it!

I've never used a shampoo bar and had forgotten that it was one! Hubby and I used it as regular body bar and really liked it!
Posted by Terra on 24th Jan 2013
I had never tried a shampoo bar before seeing them here on Apple Valley. Oh my word ... I love it! My hair is so soft. I was afraid that it would tangle easily or be hard to comb through while wet. I shouldn't have been concerned. I have not had a problem with either. It smells fabulous! Lathers well. I will definitely be purchasing more in the future.

I have tried several of the Body and Shampoo bars and LOVE them. My hair is soft and easy to care for. I also use Jojoba Oil on my hair after shampooing. Feels like I just used a hot oil treatment. I didn't and it's so easy and so much cheaper.

This bar is my absolute favorite! The scent is wonderful. I love that I can still smell it in my hair later in the day, which is difficult to accomplish with natural soaps. When it arrives in the mail, I can smell it in the mailbox. I have noticed that if my water softener runs out of salt, then the soap doesn't wash out nicely. Keep your softener filled up and you'll be good to go! The shipping is SUPER fast too! Thanks for a great product and fast shipment.

I've tried several shampoo bar samples and this is my 2nd favorite. I love the scent. It lathers up well and leaves my hair soft and silky.

I love this scent! It is so sweet and subtle. I use this primarily as a shaving soap. It has the right amount of lather and does not leave my skin depleted. Very nice soap.
Posted by Andrea S. on 4th Apr 2012
I Love this scent. It is so light and lovely. I just can't get shampoo bars to work well on my hair. I wish I could.
