I've never knew a bar shampoo, and bar conditioner was available for purchase until I ran into Nourish on line. I have been looking for a product line to switch to because I have been using the same two products for the past several years. The Nourish pair are definitely keepers. I found the Nourish bars provided a lavishly creamy sudsing shampoo, and a non oily conditioner that left my hair cleaner, smoother and glossier after the first use. I travel quite a bit so the bars are a welcome addition to my beauty bag. And they won't leak. Thanks.
