Our all natural Beer Shampoo is a legendary product! I’ve had a sore scalp for two years, and I’ve tried everything that the supermarkets and the hair salons can throw at me. After only four days of using the shampoo bar, it seems to be getting better already, thanks a lot! – Daryl c Forth

Who for: perfect for everyone – especially people with dandruff,oily hair/scalp, fine or thin hair or who want shiny healthy hair without using chemicals.
What is it? Tasmanian beer shampoo bar – A handmade chemical-free solid shampoo bar, rich in plant and nut oils hops and conditioning beer, to clean hair thoroughly and gently.
Beer has been famed for generations for its ability to leave hair bouncy, shiny and full of body, so this bar is chock a block with it – brewed naturally by small breweries, locally in Tasmania.
Entirely natural chemical free formulation traditionally handmade to a gentle centuries-old formula using the finest natural conditioning plant oils such as castor, olive and coconut oils.
- The color of the bar directly reflects the essential oils, and there are flecks of Pride of Ringwood intensely fragrant, antiseptic hops from Bushy Park in Tasmania,used to make it…..with its slightly gingery, spicy smell this shampoo has become a firm favourite.
- Richly conditioning and great for dry hair.
- Users report with dandruff/psoriasis or those with dry flaky scalps report excellent results. True blue Aussie blokes using it have commented that they are free of dandruff in two washes!
- Totally free of harsh synthetic detergents that dries your hair and scalp and pollutes you and our waterways.

We bought a bar of this beer shampoo ‘just to try’ …… we love it !!
Hubby won’t use anything else from now on as he says it makes his hair feel soft and I must say it looks shinnier too ! I gave it a try and now I’m hooked !!
GREAT product, would highly recommend 🙂

I bought a bar for my Mum who could no longer find beer shampoo and she loves it! Said it has made her hair thicker after only a few weeks and she has converted! Another friend who said her hair had more body after only one wash with it! She won’t go back to normal shampoo!
Jo Wapling –
I enjoyed you beer bar so much (it is now the only thing I take into the shower – goodbye shampoo and conditioner and bodywash!) I sent a few to my friends who also enjoy it.

I bought my first Beer Bar on the Spirit of Tassie years ago & have only just got around to using it recently. It’s bloody brilliant! You’ve got me for life. It seems all the best products are coming out of your island paradise.
Wishing you every success, Mark & Kate.

My first natural soap ever, and I’ll NEVER go back to the chemical sewage shampoos and shower gels I used to use; damaging both my health and environment…..
I have to say, this shampoo is A.W.E.S.O.M.E! Surprisingly foamy and economical in use! The natural exotic formula creates an “out of this world” shower experience! The ginger /cinnamonish, and honey + all the beer, makes this a really adventurous and manly fume.
Makes my hair (which is very thick, hazelnut brownish) and facial hair/beard shiny and soft. Usually I kinda need a conditioner to soften my hair, but not with this product! I’ve already gotten positive feedback on the odor and how shiny my hair is!
I use it on my body as well, feels moisturizing, and the bee wax/honey has a water repellent effect on the skin! Gonna buy some more soaps (for my body), but in the meanwhile this works like a charm!
There are absolutely no reasons not to buy this product!!!
I’m glad shops like beebeauty.com exist.

It’s been a long road on my mission to reduce our family’s exposure to nasty chemicals, to find a shampoo solution that actually worked and didn’t leave my hair feeling either (a) like dry straw, or (b) oily and limp. I am now very happy to report on Beauty and the Bees Beer Shampoo bar. I’ll admit it took a bit of getting used to washing my hair with what looks like a bar of soap, and it took my hair a while to get used to not being smothered in chemicals anymore. I am now addicted however. I seriously love it and for the first time since before my first pregnancy, I love my hair again.
For a conditioner they have a lovely Apple Cider and herb conditioning rinse. When I ran out of that I substituted good old Apple Cider Vinegar from the pantry cupboard and it works a treat. You simply put 2-3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a 1 ltr jug and take it into the shower with you. After shampooing, fill the jug up with warm shower water and pour it all over your head as a final rinse. The vinegar taste and smell disappears soon enough to leave a shiny, bouncy, tangle-free, clean head of lustrous hair.
My hair is happy and rediscovering itself; my skin is relieved to no longer have to endure all the chemicals from conventional shampoos that I’ve been using all my life; and I’m saving myself a small fortune on all the salon shampoos that I had been buying all this time. Yay for beer (and apple cider vinegar)!

My daughter who suffers badly from psoriasis and who has tried numerous medications to keep it in check without much success, tried the Beer shampoo with amazing results- it has all but cleared the psoriasis, the redness and itchiness has gone as well, as has the unsightly dried skin flakes which would cover her clothing.

This was originally given as a joke gift for my partner. When he finally got around to trying it he was amazed. So then I tried it and was equally amazed. After a week of using it our hair looked healthier, shinier and had more body. After a couple of months my partner said his hair loss had slowed as well.
We also noticed that there was no chemical ‘feel’ while rinsing, which made us really question what we had been putting on our heads for all this time. Were these chemicals in regular shampoo aiding his hair loss? I don’t know. That would require a proper scientific study. However it is nice to use a product that no longer has a listing like one of my old university chemistry experiments.
We are now converts and will not be going back to commercial products again.

i love your shampoo. my sisters and i all have long curly or wavy hair and usually go through alot of shampoo and conditioner but your bars are amazing, the three of us have shared 2 bars over the last 3 months! I try most things but my sisters are a hard sell, they ordered 3 bars each after the second wash. My usually knotty hair is so easy to brush now! thankyou
Jenny –
I bought this for my husband whilst in Tasmania. He has used it every 2nd day for 3 months and has now run out of it. This product is absolutely amazing, I have even used it myself and found that my hair had more body than ever before. Needless to say, I have just ordered another couple of bars. Thanks so much.

I just want to share my thoughts about Beauty and the Bees shampoo bars. I think they are wonderful natural alternative to commercial shampoos. At first when I started using it I noticed I cannot go without vinegar rinse, if I don’t rinse, my hair will be tangled and difficult to comb. I thought it was the soap, but the real reason is hard water…
First I found out about hard water in some blog, later on hapenned to wash my hair with Beauty and the Bees soap in Korean sauna (they use some clean hot spring water). I thought that’s it, now I’ll never detangle them but to my surprise my hair was so soft and silky like it never was before without even rinsing it with vinegar.
If there’s anyone out there who thinks that the soap leaves “residue”, in fact it is minerals in hard water that interact with soap.
Love B&B shampoo soap bars in combination with vinegar rinse when soft water’s not available.

I have been using your beer soap since 2006, we first came across you in Hobart on a vacation and I can honestly say it is the best hair care product I have ever used.
As a young fella I used sunlight soap, as we did from childhood but I suggest your beer soap is far superior.
The easy use and the great results of healthy and shining hair are all most blokes need so I can recommend Beauty and the Bees Beer Soap.
Also great for sorting out kids acne around the hair and forehead all round a great product.
Keep up the good work and I will certainly be a lifetime customer.
Regards,
Graham Dean

Hands down, the best anti dandruff shampoo I’ve ever tried, and I’ve tried a lot. Everything from $3 bottles from Woolies, to $30 bottles of salon exclusive stuff. Nothing is as soothing, or makes my hair as soft and shiny as this beer shampoo. A joy to use!
Mike –
My sister bought this for me for Christmas… best shampoo solution I have ever had… Stops itchy scalp and ends dandruff issues… My hair feels more healthy and easier to style!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

I found Beauty and the Bees while looking for palm oil free shampoo and I’m absolutely thrilled I found them! I use their beer shampoo and their conditioning rinse – I love that their products are completely natural, 100% palm oil free, are so economical AND that they actually do their job (very rare in beauty products)! My hair is now in a constantly perfect state! (I also love getting samples of other products when I receive my orders in the mail) I recently emailed Beauty and the Bees for advice, as I had specific needs for a facial cleanser and they replied almost immediately with plenty of detail to help me out and to help me pick the right skincare. I have no doubt that I’ll be pleased with the new products I purchase from Beauty and the Bees! 🙂
bluesox from Melton West –
I ordered a shampoo bar a few weeks ago. I loved it so much that I decided to place another order. The order arrived the next day! I love the products- my scalp has never felt so good, all of the normal shampoos especially the so called anti-dandruff ones used to aggravate my scalp. I cant wait to try the doggy bar on my dog. I will be making another order in the future.
rosalynn from Launceston –
Soaps are really exceptional, different from anything else on the market. I was skeptical at first about using a “soap” as shampoo but I will never use anything else now. Fantastic helpful staff in the Hobart store, however I always buy way more than I ever intend to… it’s great!

“Your natural Beer Shampoo is a legendary product! I’ve had a sore scalp for two years, and I’ve tried everything that the supermarkets and the hair salons can throw at me. After only four days of using the shanmpoo bar, it seems to be getting better already, thanks a lot!”
terrym6 from Islington –
The staff are very friendly when you call them or meet them at the markets in Tasmania and are very knowledgeable of their products. I use the Beer Shampoo and for a psoriasis sufferer of many years it has been a fantastic and refreshing find! No more itchy scalp and less frequent break-outs in my hair line.
Thank you team for an excellent product that makes my life much more enjoyable.
kareng5 from Melton –
The service was prompt I received a phone call the next business day to confirm my order. Once the goods were paid for I received my item within 2 days. The beer shampoo exceeded my expectations and the conditioning rinse has been marvelous on my hair and scalp. Thanks for the great service and wonderful products Karen from Victoria Australia.
mandyb2 from Beaconsfield –
Great products (shampoo bars really do work!) with an easy to use online shopping system and incredibly speedy postage within Australia… 2 days from Tasmania to Perth is pretty damned good to me. Friendly mob that like to surprise you with small samples – quite a joy to experience their packages.
Kathryn –
I have tried many’natural’ and ‘unnatural’ shampoos for my fine, coloured hair and most build up a residue on my scalp, leaving my hair limp by day two and my scalp a bit itchy. I have only used the beer shampoo twice with the cider rinse and already my scalp feels better and doesn’t have that all too common ‘tight’ feeling. At first I was really skeptical about using a bar and only a cider rinse, but I have been pleasantly surprised.
Liza –
I have used this beer shampoo alot and having skin that is prone to eczema – means that i have a dry scalp too. After just a few washes my scalp is no longer dry and flaky and my hair feels fantastic! Its so economical since a bar lasts for ages, especially if you cut them in half or thirds (as reccomended by one of the girls there in the office who gave me that tip!) Also follow it up with the apple cider rinse and it makes a great combination.
Christine –
Whenever I get my hands on this bar after a long spell on commercial products (due to being a poor student and not being able to afford to buy the bars often), I notice an amazing difference to the health of my hair and scalp. I have waist length black hair that mats and tangles easily but with this bar, it’s far more manageable and always feels and smells so clean!
Next time I visit Tassie, I will stock up!
Tatjana –
This product is everything and more that it claims to be. I have thin and oily hair and this product makes my hair shiny and full of volume. Knowing it contains no chemicals makes washing my hair a pleasure. Thank you
Stephanie –
I was referred to this shampoo bar by a friend of mine, who purchased it from a local enviro shop. I was sceptical at first, but bought some on a whim and certainly didn’t regret it. My hair has never been so clean! My kids were willing converts, and even my husband, who doesn’t really care about what shampoo we use, commented on how good it smelled and how clean his hair felt. I’m looking forward to trying out more products in your fantastic range.
Vanessa –
I used to lose a lot of hair when I used bottled shampoos like Pantene and TIGI and thought this was normal!!…until I tried a few of the Beauty and the Bees shampoo bars. My hair loss has now cut down dramatically!! Feels great not polluting the environment with chemicals as well as keeping my hair!
Nadia –
I have bought this shampoo for myself as well as for friends. 3 in particular are all guys with curly hair – red, blonde and very dark brown. All used to find that normal shampoos would make their hair fluff up heaps and conditioners would leave too much product build up making curls flatter and spikier – one stopped washing their hair all together to avoid this. The beer bar doesn’t strip hair of natural moisture but cleans hair thoroughly, awesome combination. Will continue to recommend it and gift it to friends!! Thanks!
Peter –
Amazing! The very definition of squeaky clean!
My hair has not felt this good since I was a kid and I have been searching for a long time for a good shampoo that wasn’t full of additives and synthetic chemicals.
The Tasmanian beer shampoo bar delivers on all accounts and does exactly what it says on the tin (or in this case box).
Marty – Curl Curl –
Great product – best shampoo I have ever used in my beard too! – tip top – no more flakey skin – never thought i would post about soap but have been damned impressed
Leanne –
Have been using this product for years now and have no desire to change. Love the fact that it keeps my dry itchy scalp under control and at the same time the rest of the family like to use the product also.
Can not tell you how many people I have recommended to in passing and I will continue to do so. It’s a winner!
Jenny –
This is the best shampoo I have found for my son. He is a teenager, need I say more, and hates washing his hair. He loves using this bar, just rub it in, rub around a bit and then rinse out. His hair is looking so much nicer, with body, bounce and blond again. Great for boys 🙂
Anna –
We have been using this for years and it is a favourite of the man in the house. It is good value and I like the minimal packaging.
Ryan –
Love the Beer Shampoo. I use it on my beard as well, then when I’m out of the shower I rub in some Professor Edward J. Fuzzworthy’s Beard Care Gloss and both by beard and my hair feel awesome!
CAROL –
MY HUSBAND IS CONVERTED!!! THIS IS ALL HE WILL USE NOW!
Navy –
Just started using this product again (now that there is a conditioning bar) and I can now say that it’s hands down the BEST shampoo I’ve ever used!! I’ve tried them all from the main stream brands to the “professional” stuff. This is just amazing. I love it so much I’m even hesitant to try the other shampoo varieties Bees have lol. I just love the way my hair feels afterwards it’s like a detox for your hair/head! I want to convert all my friends and family but people are so used to bottled rubbish!!!
Sandra –
I got a sample for this with my last order and I took it with me on a camping trip I went on with my boyfriend. He absolutely loves it and has stolen my last little slivers of the sample to use at home. Will definitely be buying some more of this!
Magdalena –
My natural hair is dark brown. About a year ago I decided to go light red ((carrot shade) with blonde highlights. Needles to say my hair was ruined. Splitting ends, frizz, breaking at the ends. Had to cut about half of its length, as I couldn’t even put a comb trough it without puling hair out. I was looking for a chemical free way to look after my hair and that’s how I discovered BB shampoo bars. Been using Tasmanian beer shampoo since summer about twice a week and I still have about 1/4 of a bar left. My hair is now natural, soft, shiny and manageable and I’m also taking care of the environment. I’m based in Europe, but I will continue ordering from this company as they are truly wonderful.

My 7 year old daughter has recently had issues with hair shedding and dryness. We have Used the beer shampoo and our own apple cider rinse for the first time……I cant’t believe how soft her hair feels without the use of loads of commercial conditioner!! Have used the product myself, and I have thick frizzy hair, and i did just fine without using commercial conditioners….very impressed!!
Sarah –
There’s a reason why this is the top selling shampoo on this site. I tried it recently and not only did it not aggravate my sensitive scalp, but it brought the curl out in my hair. My layers sit nicely now instead of looking ‘mulletey’. The bar lasted about 3 weeks but my hair is long and thick and I wash it twice each time. I initially got this for travelling as it’s much lighter than shampoo, can’t leak in my bag and can be used on my body. I’m now using it all the time. No need for conditioner.
Danielle –
This shampoo is my saviour, a friend recommended it for hair growth and its been amazing for my hair i’ve notice so much extra growth in just 2 months. I have been able to reduce the amount of washing per week due to my hair not being as oily and i hardly find any hair in my hair brush now. I’ve follow up with the conditioner and its just brilliant i will never go back to any other shampoo. Thanks to the girls at Beauty and the Bees Centre point for their excellent knowledge of the product and helping me with hair care tips and tricks.
David –
This is a very good product, have been using it for some time and very happy with it. I would like to see an option for delivery which is cheaper than the express service used, the delivery costs are a bit high.
Christina –
I received this shampoo in a pack of samples when I ordered two soap racks. I tried it and I love it, so I’ve now ordered two bars, one for myself and the other for my 11 year old son who loves it too! My hair is much shinier and has more body too. Thanks Beauty and The Bees for sending the samples for us to try 🙂 and for making such wonderful products.

When I turned 40 my body started to react to every skin and hair product on the shelves in the supermarket and the chemist, I asked the doctor what I could do about a dry, itchy, blistering, flaking scalp and dry hair with lots of hair loss (I only have 1/3 of the hair I used to have) and dry sensitive skin that once was oily, her response was to soak in olive oil and wash with baby shampoo. This advice was tried but with no luck as all baby shampoos I could find had SLS as a main ingredient and I knew I was sensitive to this as it had caused blisters on my scalp.
While searching on the internet to try and figure out what I could use to make my hair shine again (as it was like straw) I came across the Beauty and the Bee web page and read all the testimonials about the Tasmanian Bear Shampoo Bar coupled with Tasmanian Apple Cider Vinegar Conditioning Rinse, I decided to give it a try after all I had tried everything else why not this.
I placed my order and received my parcel the very next day, (impressed by speedy delivery) I used the shampoo bar the day after and was impressed again, itching was decreased, hair had regained some of its old lustre and didn’t matt at the back like before. I have now used it for the second time and in love with Tasmanian Bear Shampoo Bar and wonder why I hadn’t found this site before or why the doctor recommended something I was sensitive too. I returned to the site to order my daughter a bar for she too has the same dry, sensitive flaking scalp with straw like hair that breaks and falls out easily. Would recommend these products to anyone who will listen, thank you
