Coffee and roasted cocoa extract blend with Fairtrade vanilla absolute and vetiver oil to create a rich intoxicating fragrance, that is equal parts exotic spice market meets decadent chocolate temple.
I've used shampoo bars before, they are great for travelling as they are so light, make no mess and last for ages. However, as my hair is long, fairly thick and quite curly, I've found them a little too drying for regular use in the past. They can make my hair a bit fluffy.
I usually use Lush's 'Cynthia Sylvia Stout,' a liquid shampoo that adds weight and is good for shine but I wanted to try the henna shampoo.
I was initially a little sceptical about Copperhead, the henna aspect intrigued me; I'm a redhead and I use Lush's Rouge Henna to enhance my natural colour, creating a darker but brighter end result; but I wondered how much difference the shampoo bar could make with so little henna going on to my hair for such a short time.
I was wrong and was really impressed from my first use at how shiny my hair was afterwards and the cocoa butter really seems to have helped counteract the tendency to make my hair fluffy. In fact, after a few uses, I was asked by several friends at work if I had recently dyed my hair as it was so shiny.
It's definitely become one of my favourite Lush products already and I think it will be one of my staple products from now on.
I just hope they bring out a few more products in that delicious aroma.
