    They're great, Gary. My skin feels soft and moisturized. The small amount it takes to achieve plenty of lather makes them a great value too.

    I'm sure Doc Ezlovan has the lowdown on this.

    I've never used a shampoo "bar" before. I suppose you just rub it ferociously into your hand(s) and apply as you would any shampoo?

    Easiest shampoo you’ll ever have. No ferocity required. Lightly rub the bar directly on your hair until you get the desired lather. I wear my hair short, and it’s thinning, so I literally rub it on my hair for about 2 seconds. I have soft water and it lathers up fast and full. With just that amount I have enough excess lather to apply some extra any other place I wish...:shocked003:...lol. Usually down my back. :happy088:

    My wife has a full head of long hair and it didn’t work for her. She said it took too long to lather (opposite of my experience). I think part of that was that our water softener was broken at the time she tried it. But long hair will certainly require more product and more effort.

    For $5, you owe it to yourself to try! I did try a menthol version, only once, because I don’t want menthol in my eyes, so consider that. Others here have said they enjoy a mentholated soap on other parts of their body...:happy097: :rofl::happy102:.

    YMMV! :cool:

    I am going to be joining your protest boycotting of the Stirling-Turner Awards this year in solidarity with you, Edison - for the same reason.

    Looks like a very good Stoylin week for me to kick off Stoylin September: 2 shave soaps, 4 aftershaves and of course the daily hand-washes with Xecutive Man. Note: Some of the shave soaps and aftershaves will be repeats from previous days.

    This wouldn't have anything to do with my 1-0 vote on the Blood On Steel issue would it?
