This is a beautiful soap, that makes your skin feel moisturised and healthy. I originally bought it for my husband who suffers from dry patches on his skin, but soon 'borrowed' it for my own use! Unlike Susan I prefer this to my usual chemical loaded shampoo, it really suits my hair. Results are full bodied and manageable, I guess it depends on your hair type. Mine is naturally wavy, and African Black soap gets it clean but leaves my hair with enough body to settle into its waves without 'flopping'. Recommended.
