"I’m 54, and started my hair bar journey just over a year ago. I have thinning, gray hair that is also oily. I’ve been a confirmed daily washer my entire life, and since using the Stimulator I can easily stretch up to 3 days! My hair is shiny, healthy and incredibly soft. I’ve gotten numerous compliments, and have gifted multiple sets to friends and family. I’m a bar girl for life!"
- Cathy M.
"I’ve been a diehard Stimulator fan for over 10 years, and have noticed a substantial change in the look and feel of my hair! It healthier, looks fuller, and has a little more life and body than it used to. My hair doesn’t get greasy as quickly, which means I can go longer between washes. For someone with fine hair (& a busy mom of 3 girls), having more “no wash” days is such a benefit."
- Kelly M.
"The Stimulator has been a total game changer for my fine oily hair! I’ve gone from having to wash my hair every day to only 3 days a week. It volumizes the roots so I’m not having to constantly struggle with getting lift where I need it. Highly recommend!!!"

"This has been a pleasant surprise. Lathers really well. I do need conditionner after this shampoo and the notice conditionner requires a few trials and errors but once you get the hang of applying conditionner it’s really great. The bars last a really long time and don’t fade away fast . I find it more cost effective than my salon shampoo. No more plastic bottles, probably less plastic absorbions as well from shampoo. I drank the Notice coolaid! Love it"
"I finally found a shampoo and conditioner that work with my oily hair instead of against it. My hair always feels soft and clean after using it and doesn’t get greasy nearly as fast as it used to. I thought the bars might take a while to get used to but they were really easy to figure out."
"I've been searching for a small company that makes natural bar shampoo, that also keeps my hair from getting sooooo oily/gressy and THIS IS THE ONE! Please don't ever change the recipe 🙏🏼"
"My hair has never felt softer, I have tried many other shampoos and just figured that my hair would only feel nice after a salon visit. It's really helped with the build up I typically get that made my hair feel greasy. This is the best shampoo I have ever tried. The lather is luxurious. It's very pepperminty, which is nice but I would have preferred a different scent. But it works so well I don't care."
"I’ve always been picky about my hair routine, so I expected to miss my bottled products. I was wrong. This bar has blown my mind—my fine hair feels amazing, and it stays fresh way longer than I anticipated. It feels so good to finally find a Canadian brand that delivers salon-quality results while being 100% plastic-free. My shower (and my hair) has never been better. If you’re on the fence, just try it. You won't look back."
"This is all I wanted in a shampoo. Amazing lather. Gives a great volume. Will keep buying. This is now my forever shampoo."
"I love the shampoo more than the conditioner because the conditioner doesnt lather really so its hard to get the product in the hair. Also wish they made a non scented. But love it otherwise!"
"Love the way this lathers and the texture and lift it provides to my very fine, sad limp hair"
"Both my teenage daughter and I now only ever use this shampoo bar, our hair feels better, healthier and need to wash a lot less. Happy"
"Love the lather. I am amazed how well this works. Brought with me on a trip. So useful. No heavy bottles to carry when you want to have your favorite shampoo with you instead of using the hotel one !"
Wet your hair and the bar thoroughly. Glide the shampoo bar directly over your roots a few times, then massage with your fingertips to build a lather. Rinse well and repeat if needed. Follow with the conditioner bar applied directly to your hair, from mid-lengths to ends, leave it on for 1-2 minutes, rinse.
Less than you might think. Start with a few light passes and add more only if needed. Our bars are concentrated, so a little goes a long way, especially with the shampoo. A set of hair bars generally provide approximately 50-75 washes.
No. The shampoo lathers exactly like traditional liquid products. There can be a short learning curve while you figure out the right amount of product needed, and the best technique for your hair.
Yes, if your hair needs, but it's completely up to you. The first wash helps break down oil, dry shampoo and styling-product buildup, while the second allows you to cleanse the scalp more thoroughly. Use a small amount for each wash, it's better to build the lather, than to overdo it.
Second-day hair simply means your hair still looks and feels fresh the day after washing. Reaching second-day hair means less time spent washing and styling, less product used and less potential damage from brushing, blow-drying, and heat styling.
If required, yes. But ideally, you may find yourself using less of it or reaching for it later in your wash cycle. If you do use dry shampoo, apply a small amount where needed and wash it out thoroughly on your next wash day to help prevent buildup.
Yes. A solid format doesn’t mean less performance, it simply changes how the product is delivered. Once activated with water, the Stimulator bar creates a rich lather that distributes easily across the scalp, and has a much more precise application than liquid shampoo.
That's why we have the "Bar Match Guarantee". If the Stimulator bars don't leave your hair feeling cleaner, lighter, and fresher between washes, let us know within 30 days. We’ll help you find a better match and send a replacement set, or refund your purchase.
