How to use How it's made Inventors stories
Wet both hair and the shampoo bar. Glide the shampoo bar down the length of your hair about three times (right, left and back). Work into a lather and rinse thoroughly. Follow with LUSH conditioner if needed. Keep your solid shampoo in a cool, dry place between uses; we recommend using a LUSH shampoo bar tin.

I love it, I am a person who is addicted to dying her hair. This has made a serious improvement in two showers. My hair is back to it's kitten softness. I use this almost everyday, usually I only take showers every second day.



I found that the Shea, and Cocoa butter really did moisturize my hair. After one shower I noticed a significant improvement in shine and texture. My hair over the past few months has been incredibly frizzy and this has tamed it better than many of the other products I've tried. I have even tried using olive oil to moisturize my hair. Sadly didn't work quite as well as I had hoped.



The scent is amazing, I love it a lot. The jasmine fills up the bathroom it's very relaxing. Although some might find the scent too over powering. I think they did an excellent job mixing the Cypress, Ylang Ylang and Jasmine it is by far the most relaxing shampoo I've tried so far.



I was very surprised with how well it lathered. I was expecting something a little like The Blond, which was amazing when I had blond hair but didn't lather quite as amazingly as Godiva. I only need to do a few swipes on my long hair and I can have more than enough lather. It's intense. I love it more than anything.

This was my first solid shampoo bar. I bought it based on the great reviews it received from the happy customers.



After using it for the first two times I was also one happy customer and had I written the review then, I would give it 5 stars.



I was using this bar daily in combination with the jungle conditioner. Unfortunately on day 3, my hair felt very stripped and my scalp felt a bit dry.



On day 5 of using Godiva, my scalp started itching and flaking like crazy! My hair didn't look impressive in any way either. I immediately stopped using it and went back to my regular non-Lush shampoo. My scalp was so overdried that it continued flaking for the next two weeks!



The smell is definitely nice but I think that this shampoo bar needs a review of its ingredients because there's something very harsh in there... or perhaps addition of something moisturizing ?



I will never use Godiva again for my hair but for those who can't live without it my suggestion would be not to use it every day or if you do, then you probably should condition with a very moisturizing conditioner (Jungle was not enough).

      Comments about Godiva Solid Shampoo:

      I wasn't sure about using a shampoo bar... As much as I love all LUSH products, I have bleach blonde hair that is damaged, and I usually use expensive brand shampoos. I was more than happy when I started using the shampoo bar, giving a new glow to my blonde hair! It's not harsh at all, it's actually helping my hair to stay healthy (I noticed a change within a week!)

      However, I still have to apply conditioner afterwards since the little chunks of conditioner in Godiva are not enough.

      Oh, and I absolutely love the smell!

      Comments about Godiva Solid Shampoo:

      I'm a daily shower/hair wash person but on the odd lazy weekend when I don't bother, my hair remains clean and fresh looking. There's even a slight lingering scent.
      On the plus side: I love the scent, my hair is clean & shiny & smells gorgeous all day. I can't remember when I bought it, so it must last well (grin).
      On the negative side: The cleansing properties might be a little too enthusiastic. Not really "harsh"; more a case of clean to that "squeak-point" with one application (no rinse and repeat with this one) and my hair feels a little rough. I haven't tried not conditioning my hair after, because it doesn't have that smooth "wet silk" feeling my hair has when I condition, which leads me to think the conditioners aren't quite up to the moisture needs of my hair (dry). Still, a follow-up with the Jasmine Henna Fluff Ease treatment used as a daily conditioner seems to do the trick wonderfully and the scents are absolutely compatible.
      Another negative is despite letting it dry then keeping it in the tin, the bar has disintegrated into liquefied mush with the odd lump of solid conditioner... usable but disappointing. I second the reviewer who called for a liquid version. PLEASE!
      I would like to make one comment to the poor soul who found her scalp itching severely, dry and flaking after five days. Sounds to me like you had a sensitivity reaction to one of the ingredients. That doesn't mean the ingredients are unusually harsh... YOU are allergic to one or more of them! We should all remember, whenever considering to purchase new cosmetics and toiletry products, DO A PATCH TEST! The wonderful thing about LUSH is that you can always ask for a test sample of anything you would like to try out, without having to buy the whole product. I LOVE THAT!!

      I love love love this shampoo - the smell, the quick lather, what it does for my hair.... but I really wish it would come in a liquid version. I find that because of the chunks, once it gets to half it's original size it just breaks into pieces and becomes almost unusable. Which makes me very sad :(. Please please make a bottled version!

        Comments about Godiva Solid Shampoo:

        Always wanted to try a shampoo bar and after going into a Lush store and telling them about my dry thick hair he recommended this. I use it by rubbing all over my head and then lathering. I find that it makes your hair very tangly in the shower, which would be my only concern. Because of my thick hair I still use a conditioner, however. Once my hair is dry, I ABSOLUTELY love the way it makes my hair feel! It feels so soft and so healthy! The scent isn't overwhelming, it's just nice and light. Another little thing to consider before purchasing this product is where you would keep it. I find that if you keep it sitting on a shelf near where the water from the shower spout comes, it tends to go a little mushy on top. I like to let it dry out and return it to the tin. I like the conditioning properties this bar offers compared to many others. I would have given it 5 stars if it was a little more delicate on the hair in the shower, other than that this is a great product!

          Wonderful shampoo bar!

          The scent lasts after shampooing and in the summer, I don't even have to use conditioner!

          Using this shampoo, I only have to wash my hair every 3 days instead of daily! My hair condition has changed completely since using this shampoo; no more greasy roots, much more body and volume and the scent is amazing!

          Excellent product, goes great with Jungle or Big conditioner!

            I was reluctant to try this product at first, I've never used a solid shampoo/conditioner before and I've never been able to use shampoo/conditioner in one. It usually leaves my hair very dry and tangled. After reading a bunch of reviews I decided to try it anyways.

            I have very long thick curly hair that is on the dry side. I was shocked at how well the shampoo bar lathered, I swiped it down the length of my hair maybe 4 times and that was plenty. After one use of this product I could see and feel a difference in my hair. My hair had volume without being frizzy or fluffy and felt moisturized. My hair was easy to brush, No Tangles!! It also gave me a bit more definition with my curls. Overall I love this product and will buy it again as well as try other solid shampoos/conditioners.

                The staff in the Polo Park location in Winnipeg said that this shampoo bar smells differently depending on a woman's time of the month.

                My friend said it had an overwhelming smell in the store whereas I thought it smelled sweet and light.

                I used it through my time and likely won't use it much in between but I LOVED it during those few days,

                I even lathered my whole body up in the stuff which was lovely .

                  I shampoo my hair every three days, and this is perfect - I was using seanik before and I wanted something gentler. Godiva is moisturizing without being at all greasy, and it'll get your hair clean without drying it.

                  and the smell: AMAZING. I normally dislike floral smells, but this is great - and it does linger in your hair. To keep my hair healthy I don't shampoo every day, but I'm really tempted to with Godiva because I love the smell so much.

                  Note that all the solid shampoos are inconvenient storage-wise, since you have to try to keep them dry. My friend kept hers in a lush shampoo tin, but it eventually got stuck inside the tin and she had to chip out some pieces every time she wanted to shower. I'm keeping mine in a covered soap dish next to my shower, which has been working fine. I really love using solid shampoos, so the inconvenience doesn't bother me.

                  All in all, lovely lingering smell, moisturizing without being greasy, slightly inconvenient storage fun to use.

                    I've been using this product for the last two years and finally made it back here to write a review!
                    This is the one lush product that I can't live with out.
                    My hair is incredibly long and thick and tends to get quite frizzy, this shampoo bar works to make my hair all around more manageable and leaves it smelling great.
                    I've never found a product that works so well with my hair. It also has great bang for it's buck, one bar can usually last me three months! And I no longer need to buy conditioner except for in the really dry winter months.

                    Thank you Lush for making such a fantastic product!

                      I love this product. It was the first solid shampoo I tried from lush. I bought it because of the great smell, and I kept using it because it fixed my hair!

                      I have severly overprocessed hair, I strip it every few months from black to red to blonde and repeat. It's a real disaster. Using this shampoo and the american cream conditioner my hair has come back to life.

                      Since first using lush and this shampoo I have branched out and tried other products (like the trichomania) but nothing works as well as godiva and american cream.

                      Thank you lush!!

                      This is my first shampoo bar, and it is absolutely wonderful. It can be a little bit difficult to get into the routine of storing your shampoo outside the shower, but it doesn't take too much effort, and the results are well worth it.

                      I get my hair wet and then lather it directly on to my scalp. Afterwards i comb it through the ends of my hair too, because it is so moisturizing. This shampoo bar produces a very rich, luxurious lather and you will be able to feel how moisturizing the product is when you are still in the shower.

                      I probably wouldn't reccomend this to someone with really greasy hair because it is so moisturizing, but this product will suit all other hair types. I love this!

                        I'm new to solid conditioner, so I was hoping this would help tame my locks.

                        I have really thin, brittle, heat-damaged, dry, pin-straight hair. My hair also tends to get very "crinkly" when it air-dries and the ends feel like twine. It's been like that for more than a year now and it just seems to spread every time I cut off the damaged parts.

                        Godiva fixed that. I still see a bit of damage, but my hair is MUCH softer and smoother. It's like miracle shampoo.

                        My hair type: wavy, dry strands, normal to oily scalp (will explain this later), very fine, and falling after my baby's birth.
                        I got a sample of this. I normally don't use 2in1 shampoos, as the conditioners never condition my hair. With Godiva, I have to swipe it at least 5x to get more conditioner and less shampoo. That is, if i swipe 1-2 times, it dries my hair, but if i swipe more, it softens my hair. Even removes any hair oil I've put on my hair. Has a strong scent that scents up the bathroom, but doesnt linger too much in the hair.
                        Lush claims to silky and gloss up your hair in most shampoo bar descriptions, but I think that would only happen if you already have silky hair. But if you have dry textured hair like mine, at most these bars will soften the hair, not make it shine.
                        I normally have an oily scalp so have to wash my hair every 2 days. But now, I've moved to a very hot and humid climate, so have to wash my hair every day because of the sweat. So I dont know what kind of scalp this would suit.

                            Whew! You've got to REALLY love the scent. I found it really overpowering, especially when my entire bathroom smelled of it.

                            Left my hair feeling lovely but the smell was way too much for me.

                            I started using this product a couple of days ago, and so far it has been working great! I use it every time I have a shower (every 1-2 days). I have curly hair that needs A LOT of moisture, and I don't even have to use conditioner with this product! It is very moisturizing, and the smell is great! The only thing that I don't like about this product is that after I use it I have to dry it off, but it feels slimy, and I'm worried it will get ruined.

                            Only two things I can say about this product: great smell, but it does dry out my hair everytime I use it - which means I have to use an extra conditioner that eliminates the smell of the shampoo (I don't notice anything about the 2 in 1 effect although my bar has quite a lot of conditioner-bits in it). I will use it up, but won't buy it again - at those moments I regret a Shampoo Bar lasts that long :)

                                A:

                                The term biodegradable is a nebulous term, because there are no set regulations about what it constitutes. As a basic definition, biodegradable refers to any product/ingredient/substance that can decompose naturally. However, this does not encompass or define a time frame in which this has to happen, which means that companies are able to use the label as they see fit. Over the past few years, there have been some lawsuits to try and regulate its use (a law has been passed in California which stops any products containing plastics from being labeled as such), but it remains a contested term. In Europe, a product has to be able to break down within six months in order to receive a labeling of being biodegradable, but no such laws exist in North America.

                                Because LUSH uses as many natural ingredients as we can, and eliminate preservatives and packaging wherever we can, our products are great choices if you are looking for something that will degrade quickly. Our solid shampoos in particular are great choices, as they require no plastic packaging and no preservatives whatsoever. Our facial cleansers similarly do not contain preservatives (the solid cleansers), use recycled and recyclable packaging, and use natural ingredients with no lathering agents (Angels on Bare Skin, Herbalism, Aqua Marina, and Dark Angels).

                                In terms of finding products that are labeled biodegradable, I would make sure to search for products that have been certified biodegradable by the European Union. Searching online will help find products that fall under this category.
