Product Description
8 things to know about this raw, rare and real Tasmanian beer shampoo bar:
- It’s handcrafted, totally natural and free from harsh chemicals and synthetic detergents (like SLS) that are all the rage in commercial hair care products.
- As a naturally solid cube, it lasts a looooong time. (Even longer considering healthy hair doesn’t get greasy as fast or need washing as often.) Less packaging, zero single-use plastics, and all the savings for you, oh frugal one.
- This sweet beer bar works great for just about everyone. But it’s especially indicated for folks with thin, fine, oily or dandruff-prone locks.
- That’s because it’s packed full of locally brewed craft beer, which gently clarifies, boosts volume and feeds the hair and scalp with essential vitamins and proteins. Beer = wholefood.
- And that amazing aroma? It’s Pride of Ringwood hops, grown by our friends in Bushy Park. Flecks of this intensely fragrant herb cleanse the scalp and banish the yeastlike fungus which causes dandruff. Hops also contains silica for strong, flexible hair.
- Essential oils of nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger give a gentle warmth that stimulates your scalp and senses. Showertime just got spicy.
- And hey, we better mention that this shampoo bar is packed full of honey, too. But not just any bee juice, pure Tasmanian Leatherwood honey and beeswax from the remote West Coast wilderness. We’re proud to partner with R. Stephens, a family of apiarists who’ve been tending hives in the rainforest for over 100 years. Honey is nature’s beauty wand; smoothing and soothing and bringing the shine.
- With all this talk of wild beauty, it’s good to know that this low-waste and non-toxic shampoo bar is a big vote for the environment too. It’s safe for you, our waterways, our wildlife, and our one precious planet.

Was looking for a natural, no chemicals shampoo and conditioner and found your site. I have been to Tasmania many times and love it there but never came across your shop/products (such a shame as I would have been using them since).. Wow! This shampoo is fantastic!! Used for the first time today and i’m so happy with it, I have very fine shoulder blade length hair that is oily at the roots and can get dry on thr ends. This shampoo makes my hair feel so beautiful and soft and super shiny and after conditioning with the honey silk hair conditioner I’m super happy today!
Have used shampoo bars before but I am converted! Xx

My husband and I swapped over to your shampoo and conditioner bars just over a couple of weeks ago. We have both found our hair to be the softest and silkiest it has been for years. We both wash our hair daily and I must admit the first few uses were ……rocky. Firstly from transitioning from silicon-containing shampoos, secondly from not rinsing well enough and thirdly from using too much conditioner bar. I was getting lanky, greasy hair which was not pretty. However, now that my learning curve has completed, I am absolutely thrilled with the results. I do however wish I had ordered the clarifying rinse when I ordered my bars as I think this will be a better long term post – shampoo treatment than the conditioner bar (my hair is fine, a bit bleached and EXTREMELY prone to tangles, so a conditioner seems to be always required). I worry that daily use of the conditioner bar will be too much though and too heavy for my hair. . However, this is a minor quibble when compared to how happy I am with the results over all.
Thank you so much for your lovely products!

I REALLY wanted to like this product since I love the ethos of the company and I like to support Australian businesses, however this product is not at all good for my hair type. I have used it for three months to allow for ‘adjustment’ to a new product, I have tried every kind of washing/rinsing technique and unfortunately it leaves me hair dull, sticky, weighed down, and lifeless. It also did nothing for my dandruff even though the cleansing agent is Borax which is generally supposed to be good for dandruff control. Still gave the bar three stars as it’s a great price and it lasts a LONG time – I have waist length hair and I still have about 1/4 of the bar left after three months of use. I’ll be looking for another bar formula that has a higher amount of surfactants and isn’t so heavy on the coconut oil.
Claire Brodribb –
Hi Siena,
Thank you for your feedback.
The results that you get could be due to hard water (high in minerals): natural shampoo can be difficult to rinse out completely with hard water-we have Apple Cider Vinegar & Herb rinse, and Apple Silk Clarifying rinse to help with this issue, or using too much shampoo-with all of our products, a little bit goes a long way.
If you need more info, we’re only an email or a phone call away.
Thanks, Siena
Anna Navarro –
My sister-in-law recommended this and I gave it a go after trying several shampoo bars that haven’t worked. Been using close to a month now and so far my hair and scalp are agreeing with it. I’ve received comments as to how my hair looks healthy. I recommend trying.
Claire Brodribb –
Hi Anna,
Thank you for your kind words.
That’s great people are noticing how good it looks 🙂

After receiving my first order of shampoo bars from BATB in early 2016, I can honestly say that I have not since used any other hair care products. I noticed the difference myself after maybe two weeks, and the clincher was when my regular Barber said to me “I don’t know what hair care regime you have changed to, but stick with it, as your hair has improved out of sight.”
I have dry hair that can easily become frizzy, but BATB sorted this out quick smart. I alternate between Tasmanian Beer and Moroccan Mud shampoo bars, and use the BATB Cider Vinegar and Herbs rinse once a week. If I travel on business or holidays, I take take a half-bar with me. I have also converted my sons, some extended family members and several friends, both here in Oz and overseas. The skin care products have been a big hit with the girls.
The staff at BATB are very friendly and provide great customer service.
It truly is an outstanding range of Aussie products – well done to the team at Beauty and the Bees; you can rightly feel proud!

Hi Tom,
Thank you for taking the time to write and your very kind words, we really appreciate it.
We are really happy to hear the products work so well for you, it’s great the Barber noticed it.
Thank you also for spreading the word to family and friends 🙂

Camille Warambourg –
Great shampoo bar – this one doesn’t leave my hair oily like the other brands of shampoo bars I’ve tried before. It took at least two weeks for my hair to get used to it. The first time my hair felt very thick but now it looks healthy, shiny and light 🙂 I have shoulder length hair and went through a bar in a month and a bit.
Claire Brodribb –
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to write, we really appreciate it.
We are really happy you are enjoying the shampoo as much as we do.

Jane –
I love this shampoo bar I have been using it for several months now, but the conditioning bars just don’t work for me. I have tried two of them but my hair is just heavy and lifeless whilst using them
Claire Brodribb –
Hi Jane,
Thank you for taking the time to write, we really appreciate it.
We are really glad you are loving the shampoo. With our conditioners, as they are so moisturising the problem might be using too much, if you rub the bar in your hands then through your hair it should be enough, then just rinse as normal.
Regards Beauty and the Bees team.
Leona –
Amazing product! My hair feels so much fuller and healthier since having started using Beauty and the Bees products. This shampoo bar is my favourite product. I use it in conjunction with the conditioner bar and I swear my hair hasn’t felt this good in…. forever! Thank you, thank you!!!
Claire Brodribb –
Hi Leona,
Thank you for taking the time to write, we appreciate it.
We are really glad the shampoo and conditioner is working so well for you 🙂

Brooke –
I love this shampoo! I used to describe my hair as ‘fine, wispy and limp’ but after a few washes: ‘voluminous, shiny and healthy’ describes it better. I now only need to wash it two – three times per week and my scalp feels less irritable too. Win win win!
Claire Brodribb –
Hi Brooke,
Thank you for your kind words.
We are glad the Beer Shampoo is working for you. We have a lot of people say it helps with a sensitive or itchy scalp. As you say win, win 🙂
Cynthia –
First time switching to shampoo bar and so far it works great for my oily hair. Now, as someone who had been using bottled shampoo for decades, I have to say it is not magic like your hair will turn perfect after one wash but it is definitely worth the try and wait. The first few washes, my hair turned quite greasy which I believe is the transition period to wash off all the chemical build-ups from bottled shampoos. But on the 5th/6th wash, I can see my hair is getting healthier. It lathers quite quickly and I think it is best to lather on hands first.
Leise –
I’ve used other shampoo bars before (the no packaging and reduced waste is very appealing), but my hair never really looked…… beautiful. I’ve also experienced quite a bit of hairfall and breakage over the past few years, despite limited/no heat styling or chemicals.
After only a few washes with this shampoo bar my fine wavy hair is soft, light and shiny, I can’t stop touching it!
I’ve cut my bar into thirds for easier handling and storage, and this will definitely be my shampoo from now on! Please never stop making it!
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you for taking the time to write and for your kind words, we really appreciate it. This is one of our most popular bars and is indeed an awesome product, we are really glad it’s working so well for you.
Julia Chappell –
After many *failed* attempts in finding a no chemical shampoo that actually worked on my long, thick hair I was just about to give up when I came upon Beauty and the Bees beer shampoo and after reading so many positive reviews, I thought I would give it a go… Not only did this shampoo rid my scalp of the build up of oil, flakes and other “no-poo” alternatives I had been hoping on, it left my hair shiny, full of volume and frizz-free, but not dry or straw-like either, just a happy, healthy balanced head of hair and scalp… I am so grateful that these wonderful products exist and that I didn’t need to resort back to chemical laden shampoo’s and conditioners for shiny, healthy, manageable and clean hair 🙂
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you for your feedback, Julia! We’re happy that the Beer shampoo works so well for you.
Penny –
Just WOW! I could not believe the body it gave my hair after the first wash! I’ll admit, I was sceptical when a friend told me about it. But now that I’ve used it, I absolutely love it! My hair is super long (to my bottom) and very thick so I’d needed to use so much bottle shampoo and I hated using the plastic bottles. But now I have my beer bar. My hair is so nice now. Even my husband was surprised. It was so easy as well. I know what I’ll be giving my friends for Christmas. Thanks for creating such an awesome, sustainable product!
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you for your great review, Penny!
Lauren –
I wanted to wait until I had used this product properly before I left a review, and I’m glad I did.
I have very brittle hair, quite fine, and it always has split ends after a month. No matter what shampoo and conditioner and hair mask my hairdresser gets me on – including $200 a pop keratin treatments! – nothing has helped me growing my hair.
However, I’ve now been using this product for over a month in combination with the beer conditioner and WOW!
My hair feels so unbelievably healthy. Even after 3 or 4 days I can still get away with it not washed as it doesn’t go disgustingly oily like it does with other shampoos. I never knew it was the product that left my hair oily! I always thought I was just my hair! But now, my hair has adjusted to how it should and it’s happy hair haha.
You barely have to use any product to work up a soapy lather, it’s amazing! Couldn’t recommend enough!
Note: it did take 2 goes before my hair adjusted but now it’s fantastic. The first 2 it felt a little sticky, but I think I also used too much shampoo.
Claire Brodribb –
WOW indeed!
Thank you so much for your testimonial, Lauren!
From all of us in Tasmania
penny lee –
I purchased the sample pack and this one is the one for me.
After the first few washes I did think, perhaps this shampoo bar thing is not for me. Using the shampoo and conditioning bar together, left my hair looking greasy, so then I tried it with just the shampoo bar and apple cider rinse and bingo, Beautiful hair.
My hair is long, coloured blonde and if I brush it before I wash it, I have no issue at all brushing my hair after washing with the shampoo and rinse. I have to wash my hair a few times a week because I am a runner and I actually enjoy washing my hair now and takes half the time because there is no waiting for the conditioner to do its thing. My hair feels soft and beautiful, and I am reducing plastic and saving water – winning!
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you, Penny!
We love win-win-win-win.
And thank you for supporting Tasmanian local business!
Paul –
Wow just wow! Thought I would give it a go and wow! Grabbed my boys and used it on them even they went this is nice! Never felt so clean and fresh!
Amanda Hay –
Be gone plastic, I will never need you again when washing my hair. My hair has come back to life after years of supermarket shampoos. Thank you Real Beer Shampoo.
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you for your kind words, we are glad you love the product as much as we do.
Jay –
The gift that keeps on giving.
I bought the Tasmanian Beer Shamppo and Apple Silk Clarifying Rinse.
I have very fine shoulder length hair and oily scalp and to find a shampoo that works for both has always been a compromise between the two.
I have bought expensive saloon shampoo and off the shelf shampoo’s and they leave my hair like I stuck my finger in a light socket, or I am wearing a helmet. My bathroom shelf is littered with failed attempts.
At Beauty and Bees I have found Beer Shampoo and Apple Cider rinse I don’t need to compromise.
I started to see results with the first wash and with subsequent washes my hair feels thicker, my scalp is less oily so longer between washes, and no fly away hair.
Very happy, would highly recommend.
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you Jay for your review!
From all of us in Tasmania
Heather Snowden –
After being a little hesitant about using a soap bar for shampoo, I am now a happy convert. This is a quality product and I love the it leaves my hair – soft and silky, no itchy scalp. No more plastic bottles. Very economical when comparing how many washes you get verses a bottle of shampoo. Haven’t tried without conditioner yet but have used only a small fraction of what I normally do. Will try vinegar as conditioner next. I plan to ask our local organic shop to stock this product. Will also get my grandkids using it. Great gift as well. Congratulations on a great home grown product.
Claire Brodribb –
Thank you Heather for your wonderful review! From the whole team in Tasmania.
Sarah –
I’m so thankful for finding this product – I’m in love! I’ve struggled finding a natural shampoo that doesn’t leave my hair oily and that is actually based on natural ingredients. This beer bar lathers incredibly, smells amazing and is totally natural and easy to use.
Claire Brodribb –
We are really happy you are loving the product as much as we do. Thank you for taking the time to write.
Kim –
I recently was diagnosed with allergies to almost all the ingredients in self-care products, shampoo included. I bought the 6-pack sample box thinking if nothing else it wouldn’t hurt to try these. I love the ones I have used so far (Voodoo and Tasmanian Beer). I make an apple cider rinse and my hair is clean and tangle free. My scalp is not itchy at all, no flaking, no problems. I love the product and have recommended it to others. Thank You!!
Kylie –
I truly wish I could remember how I stumbled across your website, but however that was, what a stroke of luck! Your products are beautiful. Not only does my hair feel like it I believe it should (or did when I was MUCH younger), but I also feel that I am using something very special – natural products based on old recipes – the way things used to be. I also appreciate the helpful advice along the way (the FAQs are a MUST read, particularly if you live in a hard water area like me, but proper technique yields delightful results). I had been losing BIG handfuls of hair due to extreme anaemia and while the slowing of this hair loss is due largely to medical treatment of my condition, after just two washes with the beer shampoo and conditioner bar my hair is voluminous, bouncy, shiny and soft. I have to keep touching it because it doesn’t feel like my own hair haha!
Thank you so much for your wonderful products!
Jess –
Absolutely love this shampoo bar. Thought I would just give it a try to see what it would feel like from switching over from conventional shampoos. I cannot begin to tell you the benefits my hair has experienced. I’ve been using this bar consistently for a month now: my scalp doesn’t feel itchy or irritated, I barely lose any hair, my thin dry curls retained its hair and moisture.
Initially when I purchased this, I purchased the conditioner bar as well. I don’t think my hair really requires the moisture the conditioner bar can provide. It’s probably good for individuals with thick, dense, low porosity hair. I use some apple cider vinegar as conditioning rinse.
I think I might try the hemp seed shampoo bar because of the castor, coconut and olive oil. Thanks BB!
Claire Brodribb –
This is why it’s our best seller Jess, and you are right- we think the Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse is all you need but some people need the moisture boost of the Honey Silk/Beer Conditioner. And by the way, all of our bars contain castor, olive and coconut oils! Thanks for your feedback 😉
Adele –
Amazing product….thank you! I bought this and the Voodoo shampoo. It works great! I haven’t ever had such soft hair. I am also using it on my kids and their hair is left feeling silky. Will definitely keep using this:)
Claire Brodribb –
One of our best sellers for a reason Adele, thanks so much for feedback!
Claire Brodribb –
Yep, it’s Voodoo baby! Hence the name! And thanks so much for posting 😉
Miranda Oosthuizen –
I don’t know about the 5 star reviews.I have long , fine hair and this left my hair tangled and dull.I bought it as my main shampoo while backpacking.Big mistake.Used it only once.Can not recommend this product

Kamila –
I absolutely love it! Have been using it now for about 2 months, although these days I only need to wash my hair once a week, because it stays fresh for so long… It’s incredible how it’s changed since I started using this shampoo bar! No more dandruff, no more oily scalp and dry ends… My hair is shiny, it grows like mad and stopped falling out in massive quantities… The bar smells amazing, it lathers easily and lasts for so long… I cut it into smaller pieces as my hands are small and a full bar was difficult to handle, and in two months I only used one slice about an inch thick… It costs nothing compared to expensive shampoos I used to buy, which gave me terrible results when compared to this shampoo bar… No more conditioners, no more plastic bottles. I only use AVC rinse with only 2 teaspoons of vinegar in 2litres of water and my hair is shiny and soft. I also bought the honey conditioner and think it’s absolutely wonderful, although I will continue to use ACV rinse as I’m growing my hair long now and it really speeds up its growth. The conditioning bar will be for every now and then deep conditioning. Overall, I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to Beaty and the Bees as you have changed my life and I am so grateful for your existence and the ability to buy your products in the UK. It is revolutionary. I wish both to you and the miraculous bees all the best. Thank you
Wendy –
All the 5 star reviews above are correct – and you’ll be glad indeed to use this shampoo along with the conditioner.
Susan M –
Love this shampoo. Was able to go 4 days until next wash. seemed to tame the frizziness by weighing it down somewhat.
I had previously written a negative review after receiving the wrong product (sample size) in a damaged box from Amazon. This was promptly corrected by the company (NOT Amazon), including a free sample, and a very nice note. Thank you!
Anna –
My husband is obsessed with this bar. He is balding on top, and keeps his hair cut to #1 and has a beard the same (very short) length. With normal shampoo in a bottle, he always ends up with way too much lather. This bar requires just a tiny little swipe across his face/head, and then he can lather it up to perfection for the amount of hair he has. His beard and hair feel so soft and smooth, and he doesn’t get flaky skin under his beard anymore. Quote from the man himself: “This is it. I’m not using anything else ever.”
Cheryl –
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
Maria –
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!!
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.
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!
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!!!
CAROL –
MY HUSBAND IS CONVERTED!!! THIS IS ALL HE WILL USE NOW!
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!
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.
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 🙂
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!
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
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).
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!
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!
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.
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
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
darylc from Forth –
“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!”

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!

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.

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! 🙂

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!!!

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!

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.

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 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 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

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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 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!

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 🙂
