And I have absolutely found that natural home-made soaps are WAY gentler. My husband has extremely dry skin and he loves using it! We both love making it too...so fun!
Sounds like everyone's hair is different. But that's great it works for you, GLC. And good to hear about natural home-made soaps.

I consider my hair texture/right amount of natural oils now just right state, the state I wished I had when I was a teen (when I had too much natural oil that led to other problems).
