📜 Story Behind the Craft
This shampoo bar revives the ancient art of artisanal soap-making, a tradition once common in households across China where plant ashes and natural oils were blended for cleansing. While modern cold-process soap-making is an evolution of this craft, its soul remains in the slow, thoughtful transformation of simple, natural ingredients. This formula is further enriched by the wisdom of traditional herbal knowledge, incorporating nine revered plants like Chinese Fleece flower Root and Chinese Arborvitae Twig, which have been used for generations to promote hair and scalp health. It represents a bridge between timeless natural care principles and contemporary, sustainable living.

🤝 Made with Care
- We honor the integrity of our ingredients through the cold-process method. By keeping temperatures below 50°C during saponification, we ensure the nourishing properties of precious oils (like coconut and camellia) and the nine herbal extracts remain fully active.
- Each bar is then patiently cured for several weeks, a crucial period that allows it to become mild, stable, and long-lasting.
- This artisanal approach guarantees a bar rich in natural glycerin, offering a gentle yet effective cleanse.
