Frequently asked questions
No – we never test our human products on animals. We test our recipes on ourselves and then send them off for cosmetic safety assessments to be completed. The only exceptions are our dog care products. We tested them on ourselves first and then our family pets used them. Shampooch is a variant of our hair and body bars which were certified safe for humans.
Sodium Cocoate is actually saponified Coconut Oil. Sounds strange we know! In the process of making soap using hot or cold methods, natural oils and butters go through a process of saponification by adding a lye solution. This causes a chemical reaction and turns the oils and butters in to soap, which changes the name we can call them. The Lye does not survive saponification so there is NO lye in our soaps.
You can use our soap to wash your hair, we have lots of customers who do. We recommend if you are starting to use our solid shampoos or you’re trying a soap that you lather the bar in your hands for the first few washes and put the lather on your hair, rather than rubbing the bar directly on to it.
