A Guide to an Sustainable Everything Shower with Parrotfish Products
I have a fairly extensive routine (using all Parrotfish products) and still keep my everything showers around 10-15 minutes max.
Use a Shower Steamer Before Your Shower
Before my everything shower even starts, I put a shower steamer on my shower floor in a place that avoids the direct flow of the stream. Because I'm usually a nighttime shower-taker, the Chamomile Blossom Shower Steamer is my favorite – it's the perfect combination of scents to unwind. However, if you have sinuses and need something to alleviate congestion, our Eucalyptus Tea Tree Shower Steamer is perfect.
The Perfect Parrotfish Shampoo Bar and Conditioner Bar Combo
I start with my Argan Shampoo Bar, and after shampooing, I rub the conditioner bar on my hair and use a wide-tooth comb to distribute the product. I love to comb my hair (whether it be solid or liquid conditioner) while I'm in the shower to detangle my strands.
Exfoliate with Parrotfish's Coffee Clementine Exfoliant
Before using one of Parrotfish's soaps to clean my body, I will always lightly exfoliate using our Coffee Clementine Exfoliant. I'm prone to acne and inflammation under my armpits (where my sports bra sits) and on my bottom. Exfoliating these areas help remove dead skin cells and dirt that could contribute to clogged follicles from sweat after a workout. My Coffee Clementine Exfoliant is one of the bars I can't be without.
Nourish Your Skin with Parrotfish's Moisturizing Soap Bars
Next, I will wash my body with my Rosemary Apple Cider Soap Bar(it's my husband's favorite, so it's always in our shower!). Our soaps are extra moisturizing with ingredients such as olive oil, coconut oil and shea butter – so using one of these bars after exfoliating will help nourish your skin.
Combat Oils and Aging with Parrotfish's Lavender Teak Soap Bar
Lastly, I wash my face with our Lavender Teak Soap Bar. It contains activated charcoal, which helps combat oils. It also has calendula petals to provide a gentle exfoliant, and the essential oil combination has antibacterial properties to help reduce redness, wrinkles and other signs of aging, making this a perfect bar for your face.
After I'm done with my shampoo, conditioner, exfoliant, body soap, and face wash – my shower steamer is just about finished, acting as an hourglass to let you know your everything shower has come to an end.

Shampoo bars are an an eco-friendly alternative to good old fashioned shampoos because they use less water and no plastic! I bought the argan shampoo bar and already knew I would love it from the packaging, The box is minimalist and adorable and it has cute artwork on the inside. I love that there is no plastic packaging. When you open it, the soap is in a cute little compostable container. And the smell is divine! I love that the ingredients are clean, unlike a lot of personal care products out there on the market. I was excited to take it for a spin and was pleasantly surprised by how much it lathered up in the shower. It's moisturizing but not heavy! I'm keeping it on a soap dish in my shower so it has somewhere to drain/dry out. The only thing I would change is the price. It would be amazing if it were possible to make it a little more affordable to the mainstream.
This is the only purple Shampoo I have tried that’s actually able to lighten my hair! I have thick hair in a darker blonde color, and normally after using purple shampoo it looks the same as before. With this one, my hair stylist noticed my hair was lighter, and I didn’t even bring it up! And yes, I follow instructions!
I purchased the purple shampoo and conditioner bars & am very pleased with the results. It has definitely toned down the yellowing of my gray hair and does not dry my hair out. I will be ordering again for sure.
I color my hair and have tried many products that deal with toning down the orange, but nothing has worked as well as the purple bars for shampoo and conditioner. My hair has never looked or felt better. I love this product.
I have searched far and wide for a good shower streamer. These smell amazing and have amazing benefits. The eucalyptus and tea tree is powerful and refreshing. I love them! Thank you Parrotfish!
I was skeptical, but wanted to give the purple shampoo and conditioner a try. Only had to lather and wash once, compared to 2-3 times with my regular shampoo. The conditioner worked well, too. I might do the extra conditioning to experiment. So glad I decided to buy this!
It has been a couple months now using this shampoo and conditioner and my only regret is not trying it sooner. A couple years ago I switched from mainstream products to trying several more natural brands. A friend suggested this bar set and I just couldn’t wrap my head around the idea of Bar soap working on my fine, flat, greasy hair. My mistake. Most recently the bottled brand i was using started causing my scalp to itch and I needed to find something else. saw an ad for this and gave it a try. I LOVE the scent, the shampoo lathers so easily, and it took a minute to get used to the conditioner (follow the instructions and get a good comb to use in the shower to distribute it) but my hair has never looked and felt better. Healthier, stronger, softer, and I no longer use styling products. Thank you for such a great product!
I purchased two of the soap dishes. One fits my shampoo and conditioner bars. The other is for my soap. While some may disagree, I leave my soap stiuck to the holder, and rub it on my loofah! Not a requirement. A convenience!
