How do I transition from my regular shampoo to Akamai's 3 in 1 bar?

Transitioning from regular shampoo to our Akamai 3 in 1 Bar.

Our gentle, truly natural soap bar was meticulously formulated to be a great shampoo. If you are transitioning from traditional shampoos & conditioners, there may be an adjustment period of 3 – 5 washes. (The length of your hair & how long you’ve been using regular shampoo is also a factor). Make sure you lather well and rinse thoroughly. 

Be patient — during this transition period your hair may feel different — this will pass as the chemicals leave your hair. 

NOTE: A simple rinse of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice (20% to water) can help accelerate the transition. Actually, an occasional ACV rinse is just great for your hair and scalp. (Learn more)

Since many shampoo brands recommend washing hair daily AND contain detergents that dry out your scalp, your scalp is forced to produce excess oil to offset the drying effects. Time to break the cycle! We (and most people outside of the personal care industry) recommend only washing hair 1-2 times per week.
