Tallow is valued in shampoo bars primarily because its high saturated fatty acid content (palmitic and stearic acid) produces a hard, long-lasting bar with a stable, creamy lather and effective cleansing, while its fatty acid profile closely mirrors human skin lipids, potentially supporting scalp barrier function. Rosemary, thyme, and sage stimulate hair follicles through several overlapping and complementary mechanisms, including 5α-reductase inhibition, enhanced scalp microcirculation, Wnt/β-catenin pathway activation, antioxidant protection, and anti-inflammatory effects. Nettle enhances shine. These bars are finely scented with the natural herbal infusion and a touch of essential rosemary oil. Made with local pesticide free tallow, and almond oil infused with rosemary, thyme, sage and nettle either grown or foraged at the 99 acre wood or sourced from organic farms. Lovingly hand made by Phil and I at the 99 acre wood!
