I've not had any that really separated but you can see something kind of swirled through, especially in some of the shampoos. I think it might be the coconut oil. But, I try to remember to shake up the shampoo and leave-in conditioner each time I use them. You might want to contact Cheryl at Toadstool Soaps to ask about the separation, I'm sure she would be happy to help you out.

And thank you for the birthday wishes! I got my smellies on Friday and I'm loving both the honeysuckle and the Sweet Orange Chili Pepper scents so much. They just make me smile!

I read this comment today and I know it is over four years old now, but I wondered if anyone else has found this to be true too? I'm having the same experience after having used TS shampoo and leave-in conditioner for quite a while now. If I use just a tad too much of the conditioner (and I only use a tiny dab anyway), my fine hair can feel greasy and look stringy. So I started leaving the conditioner off all together, using only the shampoo, and my hair looks so shiny and healthy!

I'm wondering if anyone else has found the shampoo to actually improve the condition of your hair so much that you no longer need conditioner?

About a few days ago I used this to take out my olive oil(after my CO of course) but nope this is not strong enough but my hair was extremely soft yet oily. I'm going in today for round 2 of washing.

Anyone try the dozen roses scent? I'm kinda on a rose scented kick and was very curious about this one. If not i'll just stick to my milk and honey one.

Well I just reordered the milk n honey one again and some milk and honey spray stuff https://www.etsy.com/transaction/1193167042 , I hope it smells just as good as the shampoo.. I still have tons of leave in conditioner left I hardly even use it, I like the shampoo so much more! That stuff never leaves my scalp itchy.

I tried it in the leave-in conditioner and didn't like it all that much. It was definitely rose smell, but not a rose smell I enjoyed. The rose smell I really enjoy is the herbal essence one.

I agree with Neoma, your hair is GORGEOUS!

I hope what you ordered smells good. Some of her stuff I've given away because the scents didn't smell the way I thought they would. What I've noticed is I need to let my shampoo settle a bit in order to get the true scent to come through. I bought orange chiffon cake months back and I didn't like the smell initially, but I just used the shampoo again last night and it smells so much better! I paired it with HeartJCreations goat milk conditioner in pumpkin crunch cake and my hair smells like holiday dessert!

I'm also glad I gave the shampoo another try because it relieved me of scalp itches, and the little persistent white flakes I've been having are gone! I've been having those flakes for over a year, I don't know what this magic is but I hope it continues to work. Just like you, I like the shampoo more over the leave-in. The leave-in worked great when my hair was shoulder length, but when I last tried it didn't wow me and left my hair kind of lanky. :/
