Couer de Mogador = heart of Mogador, the old name for the seaside city of Essaouira, Morocco. Known for the layers and layers of many shades of blue on doors & shutters that are repainted yearly dye to the sea air, and different each time it is harvested from local murex shells, our soap draws on this vibrant hue. The fragrance is spicy, sensual, & sweet - sparkling mandarin, star anise, tonka (like a deep vanilla,) patchouli, orange peel & coriander leaves create a complex blend of intoxicating goodness in our moisturizing shampoo bar with Argan oil. Of course, can also be used for body.

Moroccan Star Shampoo Bars are made for hair, but are fabulous for body as well. To use, apply the bar directly to your head and rub around, focussing on your scalp and roots. It will lather quickly and you can use the lather to work through the rest of your hair. We recommend shampoo, rinse, repeat, for a total of 2 shampoos per session. If you use conditioner, we recommend applying that just to the bottom 1/2 to 1/3 of your hair. Or do whatever. It's your hair. :-)
If you are transitioning from a bottled shampoo, there may be a week to ten days of less than optimal hair near your scalp. Not everyone experiences this, and it isn't terrible, just your hair sluffing off gunk, so there may be a feeling of stickiness or heaviness near your roots. To solve this, rinse your hair with one part Apple Cider Vinegar to three parts water. It does smell strong as heck in the shower, but rinses right away and leaves no scent on your hair. If you are going through transition, you can use this rinse everytime you shampoo. After the initial transition, we recommend this rinse no more than once a week. If you use conditioner, use after this rinse. See above for other recommendations about conditioner.
