A review: Viori Shampoo Bar + Conditioner | Hint: My New Favorite Thing Ever

October 27, 2020 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

A little intro: I have been on a lifelong journey to find a good shampoo for my hair. I have most definitely tried every shampoo under the sun. Grocery store shampoo, salon shampoo, natural shampoo, no ‘poo method, you name it! I have fine, color-treated (aka highlighted to all heck), wavy hair. It’s an incredibly hard combo to manage and keep healthy.

I will also admit to you that I am the Facebook Ads team living and breathing dream! I’m a total sucker. I’m pretty sure I’ve been their “Employee of the Month” once or twice. I’m a mom of two. I shop from my phone. I go to Target. There are a couple of my favorite little local shops here that I go to for gifts, but other than that, I shop online. I support a TON of small shops and business from all over the country and really the world that way. But like I said, I have bought many, many a thing from FB ads. Razors, vitamins, clothes, toys, and now my latest thing: the Viori Shampoo Bar.

Full disclosure, I have only been using it for a couple of weeks now. But that’s how much I love it, I already want to share it with the world. You may be thinking a shampoo bar??? Trust me, it’s actually easy to use.

In two weeks it has made my hair so soft and it feels soooo healthy- for me, that’s a WIN. I have been so dang impressed by how much it lathers and how well it actually washes my hair.

I only use sulfate-free shampoos because I color my hair and sulfates can drastically fade your color. Not to mention, they dry your hair out. So this one fit the bill as it’s all-natural and free of sulfates, parabens and all the yucky stuff we don’t want on our hair.

The whole company is based on the ancient haircare rituals of the Red Yao Tribe- the woman use shampoo bars with longsheng rice in it. It’s what is touted as keeping their legendary beautiful hair long and free of turning gray. And the bars are full of other amazing, natural, nourishing ingredients.

Packaging: A win in my book! It was so pretty and fun to unwrap the shampoo bar. I bought the citrus one as it said it was good for oily hair and my hair, being so fine, can get oily quick so I thought it would be my best bet. It smells lovely. The soap was slightly smudged in the paper, but no biggie. I also bought the conditioning bar- Hidden Waterfall scent. Also lovely. Their packaging is plastic-free and sustainable. Bonus and bonus.

Use: The website has a very easy description on how to use it. Wet hair, lather the bar, rub all over hair, let soak in for a few minutes, dampen, work in and then rinse. Sounds like a lot, but it’s really not. If you have used sulfate-free shampoos before, you know they don’t lather as much as traditional ones. So it’s a treasure when you find one that actually lathers. This one does! It covers hair easily. Follow their directions and it will cleanse your hair thoroughly. And the conditioning bar does a great job at softening and making hair manageable.

Storage: We have a little shelf in our shower so I keep mine on that, safe from the water so it won’t disintegrate. The company recommends and sells a little bamboo holder if you feel like it needs more protection. But mine has been 100% fine just sitting on the shelf, not in a holder. It also seems like the bars will last quite a long time, so budget friendly.

Viori also gives back to the Red Yao tribe- I LOVE THIS. We should all be supporting companies that are giving back to the world and their communities.

Don’t forget to enter your email for 10% off your first purchase and you can subscribe to save 20%. Learn more about it all and try them here: Viori. Tell me if you end up liking it as much as I do! I’ll report back once I’ve been using it for a while but so far so, so good.

I'm a mama living in Nashville with my man, my two little darlins, my pup, and two bunnies. You can find us working on our 1940 home, renovating our Airstream, swimming in our pool, eating tacos + dancing in the living room. I'm a lover of creating, exploring, traveling + driving down the open road to Paul Simon. Pilates is my therapy, iced coffee and tea run through my blood and I live for trying all the new restaurants in town. I spent years as a wardrobe and prop stylist but have found my purpose in motherhood.

One of my fav Nashville + party recs- @vlancahousenashville! I’ve used them for two parties now and they’re the best! If you want a bounce house for a party (even an adult party or shower!) but are insane like me and want it to be pretty 🤪 then this is it. They have other neutral colors!

@getawayhouse was perfect for two days away of pure family time! It was just the right level of camping/glamming for us. Two queen bunks, stocked kitchen for making dinners, bathroom with toilet + shower all set in remote and private woods with a fire pit, picnic table and chairs.

We celebrated Tessa’s 5th birthday and really just soaked up being together the 4 of us. Slowing down, being in the moment and forgetting the outside world for a bit. Cherished family time and it really felt like a “getaway”. Puzzles, games, fires, meals outside, the girls foraging for leaves to make our table pretty, exploring the little town close by. Apple donuts, meals made by the fire, little hikes on the nature trails, crisp mornings. Doesn’t get any better!

We’re in Nashville so the closest Getaway House to us was in Moss, TN- two hours away. There are campgrounds with these houses all over the country though- look up which one is close to you! Celina is the closest town, about 15 minutes, and had a couple cute antique shops, a coffee shop and a great pizza place (the cafe in town that was listed as a recommendation had permanently closed).

We LOVED waking up to the big windows and feeling like we were immersed in nature. They have several add-ons too like a s’mores kit, campfire kit, provisions kit, etc. and it was nice to have neighbors but still have our campground be completely private. They’ve thought of everything.

Couldn’t recommend @getawayhouse more!

A sentimental flashback of one of my favorite three days in all of life. The four of us, my soul bunnies, my guy. My family. One of my favorite parts of the country. This tiny house @thehollerhouse in Murphy, NC was a dream. Just outside Blue Ridge, GA and not too far from the Cherokee area in NC.

We were off the grid. We played all the games. We danced. We laughed. We soaked in the tub. We walked. We explored. No agenda, no time. Just being.

Highly recommend bunking up with your family in a tiny space every now and then. Wake up in the same room. Say yes to all the things. Collect treasures. Swing. Be silly. Dance in the rain.

Do the alpaca tour in Murphy. Go to the breweries in Blue Ridge. Go see the chimpanzees at @projectchimps- hike here too. And stop at @mercierorchards for the best peaches.

We’re about to do it again for fall break, this time at @getawayhouse!

Go to this event if you can! @waterlanternfestival - it’s all over the US. It was so well done. Beautiful, magical, spiritual, powerful. Such a sense of community and hope. A night to remember.

Your ticket gets you a water lantern to build and decorate. There were also food trucks, stories told, a collective meditation, positive affirmations all through out.

And then when the sun goes down, everyone sets their water lantern in the water and watches as they float slowly by. People wrote tributes, wishes, love notes, intentions, inspiration, hope. It was truly magical to watch all the twinkling lights + read so many beautiful words and so special to do it with my mom and my girls.

The festival is also partnered with water.org which helps people get clean, safe water.

One of my favorite events I’ve been to- highly recommend going to their profile and seeing if it’s coming to your city soon.
✨✨✨
