Soak and Float

I have been using this shampoo for 5 years now and it is worth every penny. I have scalp psoriasis and this is the only product that I trust to keep my scalp from becoming a flaky nightmare.

During the first 2 months of use, it would clean my hair and reduce my dandruff. However, in the last month (I've had it for 3 months), it leaves my hair with a grease coat. My roots are not greasy but the dandruff is back and worst. It constantly feels dirty and greasy and unfortunately I'll have to stop using it.

I was diagnosed with sebhorreic dermatitis(essentially, extreme dandruff) when I was about 10 years old. Going through middle school and high school with constant flakes SUCKED. I was on medicated sprays and shampoos, and every dandruff shampoo I tried, whether prescribed or store bought, my scalp would eventually develop a resistance to. Until I bought this when I was about 15 or 16. I am 22 now, and this is the only shampoo I have used since then. I am flake free without my hair being sucked of all moisture, and no resistance has developed. I also definitely notice a difference if I, say, forget it while traveling and use hotel shampoos for a week instead. It is pricier than lush's other shampoo bars, but if you have stubborn dandruff, I could not recommend this enough.

After a year of struggling with a relentlessly itchy scalp and after trying countless other shampoos my scalp finally feels amazing. I tried the "New" bar before this and it dried my hair out and made my scalp itch even worse. After that, I was almost afraid to try this one but I'm so glad I did. My scalp is way less flaky and is ITCH FREE! My hair is more manageable, softer, and feels way healthier. The only time it made my scalp itch was when I didn't rinse it out enough, so make sure to rinse it out well. It smells lovely and lathers easily. I like to rub it in my hands and apply the suds to my scalp rather than rub the bar on my scalp. One extra tip, don't get the circle tin for it, get the oval or square tin. Sometimes it'll get stuck to the tin and it helps to have that extra space to get your fingers under there and pull it off.

On the recommendation of a lush store employee my husband who suffers from dandruff bought this for a month trip we we're taking so as not to bring liquids or creams on the flight. 10 yrs later it is still his staple and the biggest question we both have is when will lush make a conditioner dandruff version of soak and float. My conditioner travel staple is Jungle, but he doesn't like the smell for his hair as it too sweet smelling for his liking on him but loves the smell on me, which makes him wish more for a dandruff moisturizing soak and float conditioner bar version for him. I imagine there's more people who feel the same.

It lathers so much better than similar products & my scalp feels great & clean. Plus My scalp itches less.

I really like this shampoo! Feels really clean after use

I used use Wen that left me with some scale issues. I just tried this and it not only works for my scalp, but also great for my curly hair. Nice and soft and easy to manage.

Although this product is advertised to "soothe the scalp", it will make sensitive scalp literally *scream* for help. My scalp has never been this dry and itchy my entire life, and the amount of dandruffs flaking off my scalp horrifies me. What's worse is that Lush asks return products be mailed to Toronto (I live in NY), which is impossible.

I have tried just about every Lush shampoo out there (liquid and solid), and this one is the best for my hair! I have thin, dry color- treated hair and Dry itchy scalp, but after 1 day I get oily roots (especially with thin hair). This cleans without drying my scalp or hair out, but also does not leave any oily residue (so not too moisturizing). Please never get rid of this Lush!! I pair it with the American Cream solid conditioner bar (pink bar) for perfect moisture :)
