Sarah and I are so grateful for all the support, love and care we get every day from our Camamu community.  It makes all the difference and means the world to us!

Having a small business, especially one with quite as much lifting and toting as soap-making requires, is hard work.  Part of what keeps us going is the help, in uncountable ways, we get from all of you.  The other part that helps us keep stirring, cutting and loving is knowing we’re making a difference in people’s lives.  Below is an email we got about our shampoo from a happy customer.  Thank you for your kind words, Barbara!

‘I have long curly hair to my waist. It’s thick and loves to tangle. For years I have been telling myself I should cut it short so I’m not a slave to toxic shampoos. I have used lots of different shampoos from the health store over the years and they always seem to leave my hair tangled. On a lark I bought shampoo. I was thinking, “Well even if it doesn’t really work for me like all the other here, there is minimal packaging and I’m not paying to have water (biggest part of most shampoos) shipped across the US.” Little did I know I just found my hair’s best friend. With all of the “eco” shampoos I have been using I had to condition my hair twice. Now I barely need any conditioner and almost no tangles. With my hair, that’s saying something.We also love that there isn’t any Sodium Lauryl Sulfate because we have a grey water system here at our home and the build up of sodium in the soil from natural detergents can poison the soil.’
