Sampo Batang Ocean - D R Harris London

I was skeptical a bar could replace liquid shampoo, but the lather really is voluminous—one pass and my hair felt properly clean without any residue. It’s also great knowing there’s no plastic bottle involved, and the tin makes it a no-brainer for my weekend bag.

That tiny bar punches way above its weight — one pass over my scalp and the lather was thick enough for a second wash. Three months in and it’s barely dented, so the aluminium tin’s just a bonus for when I finally need to travel with it.

Took this on a two-week trip and the tin kept the bar bone dry between uses, even in a damp gym bag. The lather is genuinely voluminous—one pass and my hair felt properly clean, and a single bar has lasted over a month so far.
