Rose Tea

Tallow Shampoo & Skin Soap

Simply 3 ingredients, this Tallow soap leaves your hair silky, shiny and tangle free.

I was pleasantly surprised when I first used tallow soap to wash my hair, how could this simple soap make my hair feel so delightful?

If you are new to shampoo soaps, or natural soaps, then there may be a transition period as the oils in your scalp come back into balance. The Rosemary Toner is a great after washing treatment to help restore balance, this is sprayed onto wet hair and gently brushed through.

OR... you can make your own balancing hair rinse, dilute 3 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar in 1 cup of water, and rinse through your hair before leaving the shower. You don't need to rinse this out, the aroma will disappear as your hair dries. Try not to get it in your eyes, as it stings, but dilutes well with more water.

I love this soap because of how my hair feels, but also because it keeps the integrity of my business and products.

I have a question that I like to use to keep my awareness of locally produced, and minimally processed products, whether I am making them or buying them.

"How do I get this without electricity or fuel?"

Tallow soap meets these criteria easily, it would look a little something like this... I just enjoyed a successful hunt, and will be cooking my fresh meat over a hardwood fire. I can render the fat to make tallow, and strain water through the hardwood ash to make lye. I can then blend the tallow and lye to make tallow soap! I did make lye this way a few years back, and tested it with my pH meter, it was pretty strong!
