We recently moved to a new farm that has chisel on a rock hard water!
For the past year I have been using one of Annie’s hemp seed oil based shampoo bars, containing tea tree. I was getting such wonderful luscious lather, and baby soft hair that was manageable altogether. For my fine hair, it was nearly miraculous!
So, what happened after the move? The shampoo bar does not lather as well as it did when I had soft water. I do still have body in my hair, more so than ever. The feel that I get while my hair is wet tells me that it is adjusting once again, as it did when I first started using a natural shampoo bar.
As a service to my customers, I am here to pass along the word (as I did here) regarding how to use natural shampoo bars in an area with hard water.
More results to follow, right here, from the main tester!

Good luck! We have well water but our soap lathered pretty well though that is when we were still making soap.

We moved from a farm with well water to a farm with county water. The water is a blessing, especially with animals to feed even during power outages, but it is different! So, the first thing I thought of were our customers. I will report the full results/story in case someone else faces these hair-shampoo-water challenges.
We still have water even in power outages at least for 3 days because of our generator.
