Volume that lasts the day clears the oil and residue that flattens fine hair by lunchtime
Nothing heavy left behind no silicone, no wax, no coating that weighs strands down
Essential oils only citrus peel oils, no synthetic fragrance
Clarifies without stripping sulfate-free, so the scalp doesn't overproduce in response
Castor oil for strength supports fine strands that break easily
Description
Volumizing shampoo bar for fine, flat hair and oily roots.
Who it's for: Fine, flat or limp hair. Oily and normal scalps. Anyone whose volume is gone a few hours after washing.
What it does: Lifts oil and buildup off the scalp so fine hair keeps body all day, without coating the strands to fake it.
How it works: Orange, mandarin and bitter orange peel oils with may chang cut oil and residue at the root. Nothing heavy is left behind — no silicone, no wax. Castor oil and rice protein strengthen fine strands that break under brushing.
What it feels like: Light, foamy lather with a bright citrus lift. Hair dries with noticeably more body at the root.
Scent: Zesty citrus — orange, mandarin and may chang. Essential oils only.
How to use: Every wash. Concentrate at the roots and rinse thoroughly.
Sulfate-free · Paraben-free · Phthalate-free · pH-balanced · Vegan · Cruelty-free · Plastic-free · 100+ washes per bar.
1. Wet hair thoroughly with warm water.
2. Rub the bar between your palms or directly onto your scalp to build a lather.
3. Work the lather through roots and mid-lengths, then smooth down to ends.
4. Rinse completely with cool water to seal the cuticle and lock in shine.
5. Follow with the matching conditioner bar on mid-lengths and ends.
6. Store on a bamboo holder or dry surface between uses.

After cancer treatments my hair felt like straw and now it feels silky.
Since using VIORI, I have noticed a huge change in my hair growth, a healthier scalp, and overall feeling and texture of my hair. I love this product. I wish I found it sooner and have recommended it so many times..
My hair is strengthened and has a fuller texture than ever before. I use the Castor Oil shampoo together with this one once a week. It makes such a big difference. I'm so glad you are here... 💖
I love the Viori shampoo bars, conditioner bars and the body bars. I have tried several just because I love the scents and all leave my hair soft, shiny, healthy looking and easy to manage/style. I have very long fine hair and these products are amazing. I have been using Viori products for a few years now and will never go back to other bottle brands. These bars last me a while.
After the 1st week of using this stuff, even after day 1 I noticed a difference!! My hair was softer, silky and not so crazy or dry. I definitely recommend again and make it my main shampoo care now! Thank you so much!!
I have used Viori products since 2023. My goal was always to reduce plastic shampoos and conditioner’s, while finding a product that would help my hair grow. Off and on over the years I would switch other products but non never made my hair feel as good as viori. when I was consistently using viori my hair felt so clean and less oily. Not only is the product environmentally but it is also contributing to the women who hand craft this Amazing product. I am no longer switching back to plastic shampoos or conditioner’s things my go to for hair care.
Felt like it actually cleaned my hair without drying it out!!!! Depending on how long it lasts and the price point this may become a normal part of my shower routine instead of store bought chemicalized products ((idk if that's a word but it is now lmao)) smell incredibly good as well!!! Very tempted to get the conditioner version just to have the smell after shower haha
I had purchased the Essential Oil/Citrus Zest Duo quite awhile ago for the girls in my family and kept a set for myself but hadn't tried it. I really like it alot. My hair is long and naturally curly. I took this duo with me to the salon and my stylist washed and conditioned my hair with them. She loved the smell and how silky it left my hair. She wanted to blow dry my hair straight and she couldn't believe that I didn't have color highlights in my hair. It's been 23 years since I had any color highlights put in my hair.
Just lovely natural tones of grey/blonde/platinum.
I love all of the products I have bought and used from Viori.
Thank you.

Love the shine and volume Viori shampoo and conditioner give my French pixie hairc- It’s great for my 57 year old natural hair and this pic with no styling products freshly out of the shower blow dry nothing but Viori shows the amazing shine!
I'm taking my long hair on a Vacation because Viori gave me back my confidence to stop hiding my hair under a baseball cap. It's time to let this lioness roar.... 🦁 👑 ❤️
Viori is beautifully made and smells so nice!!!
This has been such an experience with the bars and I have to say the changes and growth in my hair in just a few months has been phenomenal!!!
My hair has grown Three inches in four months in using these beautiful shampoo and conditioner bars from VIORI !!!!!!
I love Viori and I recommend it to everyone who asks what I use! I have wavy, dyed, dry hair and viori has helped me repair it and bring back that moisture and shine! Will use this stuff forever :)
I've ordered several different products in the past, a few smaller +like trial sizes, which I absolutely love for travel and gift giving) shampoo soaps with conditioner and all of them were absolutely great. This one I enjoy so much, because I have white hair, which sometimes needs a little umph and this shampoo bar does it; I also enjoy that it's super easy to wash your hair and get great results. An additional benefit is that there are no plastic bottles nor pumps, but the shampoo bar and conditioner bar are beautifully packaged - great for gift giving!
I have tried a variety of different shampoo and conditioner bars and this is THE ONE! I am VERY scent-sensitive, and this citrus zest is lovely, not too much. The feel of the product is clean and my hair feels good!
I have been using Viori products for a few years now.
What I love:
Packaging & design
Shampoo bar design - looks like a cut gem!
Subtle fragrance
Lathers well
Hair feels clean & light afterwards
Each bar lasts countless shampooing
Sustainable, no plastics disposal
Environmental, natural ingredients
I have been using viori soap shampoo for two years now. And I can say that my hair is in very good care and it had tremendously reduce hair loss. I would say by 80%. I have a subscription and I don't plan of canceling for as long as they are in business. The scents are all lovely as I change my order every now and then:)
I’ve been using this shampoo bar for a week now, and my hair has already started to look shinier again. I have a sensitive scalp, so it’s usually hard for me to find shampoos that work well without causing irritation. So far, this one has been amazing. It hasn’t caused any reaction on my scalp, my hair looks healthier and more radiant, and it feels very soft. My hair also gets oily very easily, so I use it daily, and it still doesn’t dry my hair out.
It took a bit of time, but I’ve been using it for two months now. I notice I have less hair falling out and the actual strand seems thicker. My hair is usually incredibly thin, so this now makes my hair seem more normal. Hoping it continues to improve the growth of more strands 🤞🤞
The bar shampoos are amazing. I have colored treated hair and my color last longer and i have seen an improvement in length. I was skeptical at first but i love this product.
I absolutely love it. I’ve tried a few different bar shampoos and they were just ok, but now that I’ve found a professional grade product I’m really enjoying it. Can’t wait to try the conditioner next! Are they pthalate free?
The best bar shampoo I have found. I have fine hair but a lot of it. Most shampoos either dry it out or make it so that I have to use conditioner or a ton of styling product. This shampoo bar is so great that I only need one product… the bar itself. Highly recommend!
I LOVE this product!! I have long, straight hair. I’m quite picky about the type of products I put on my body. And I HATE plastic waste, + I’m sensitive to scents in products. I was tired of traveling with liquid shampoo and conditioner, OR relying on the hotel/Airbnb to have a product I like. Traveling with small bars of shampoo and conditioner is a game changer. The scents are so wonderful, and there is no plastic waste! WIN WIN WIN!
I recently tried the Citrus Yao Shampoo Bar by Viori, and I’ve honestly been impressed.
First of all, the scent is beautiful — light, fresh, and citrusy without being overpowering. It feels clean and uplifting, but not artificial or heavy. I’m pretty sensitive to strong fragrances, and this one feels gentle and natural.
The bar lathers really well, which surprised me. It doesn’t take much product to get a rich foam, and my hair feels clean without that stripped, squeaky feeling. After rinsing, my hair feels soft and smooth, not dry or tangled.
I also appreciate that Viori uses Longsheng rice water and focuses on more natural ingredients. It feels good knowing I’m using something more mindful and less chemically harsh on my hair and scalp.
The bar itself lasts a long time, which makes it feel worth the price. Plus, I love the eco-friendly packaging — less plastic always feels like a win.
Overall, the Citrus bar leaves my hair feeling clean, light, and healthy with a fresh scent that isn’t overwhelming. I’d definitely purchase it again.
The Citrus Zest scent is incredibly refreshing, and the lather is richer than I expected for a solid bar. After just one wash, my hair felt weightless, bouncy, and had a natural lift at the roots that lasted all day. It cuts through oil perfectly without stripping my scalp. Plus, I love that I’m finally getting rid of plastic bottles in my shower. Will definitely be purchasing again!
I love that Viori now carries their wonderful products with essential oils. As always top notch quality and my hair feels so soft. The scent is very light which I appreciate since I’m sensitive to fragrances.
You wash it, it looks good for two hours, and then it lies down against your head like nothing happened.
0 1
Product weighs it down
Anything rich enough to condition fine hair is heavy enough to flatten it. You end up choosing between soft hair and hair with any shape.
0 2
Buildup at the roots
Silicones and waxes coat the strand and collect at the scalp. Fine hair shows it first — greasy at the root, limp everywhere else.
0 3
Volume that lasts an hour
Blow-drying, mousse, root spray. It works until the moisture in the air finds it, and then you are back where you started.
THE ANSWER
Lift at the root. Nothing weighing it down.
The Volumizing Shampoo Bar cleans fine hair completely and leaves no residue behind to flatten it.
Fine hair goes flat because of what stays on it, not what is missing from it. Silicones and waxes collect at the scalp and pull the roots down within hours. This bar has none: the citrus zest blend cuts oil and buildup at the root, and the whole thing rinses completely clear. Longsheng rice water brings inositol and fermentation amino acids into the strand — inside, where it adds body rather than weight. Hair dries with lift you can feel while it is still damp, and it holds past lunch instead of collapsing when the humidity finds it.
Hydrolyzed Rice Protein works at the hair fiber level, improving the strand's ability to retain moisture and producing a smoother, more manageable surface. In a rinse-off formula, that means lengths and ends hold onto hydration even as the bar lifts oil from the root — clean that doesn't cost your ends. The result is hair that moves with weight and bounce, not the brittle, straw-like texture that follows an overcorrecting clarifying wash in a dry climate.
Jojoba Interrupts the Strip-Rebound Cycle
Jojoba Oil is chemically a liquid wax ester whose molecular structure closely resembles human sebum. Applied to an oily scalp, it may gently communicate to sebaceous glands that the scalp is already conditioned — potentially easing the overproduction that kicks in when harsh surfactants strip the scalp repeatedly. Over time, the scalp finds its own rhythm rather than overproducing to compensate for what each wash takes away.
Rice Bran Antioxidants Reinforce Hair Strength
Antioxidants derived from rice extract — delivered here through Rice Bran Oil, Longsheng Rice Water, and Vitamin E — are associated in cosmetic-science literature with supporting the mechanical properties of the hair strand, including resilience and elasticity, particularly in hair exposed to UV and environmental stress. For a dry-climate wash routine that already puts tension on the fiber, that structural support matters between wash days. Stronger strands are less prone to the breakage that shows up at the ends when roots are being washed too often.
Sulfate-free cleansing preserves moisture in porous hair
Bleached hair is highly porous — it absorbs and loses moisture faster than untreated hair. Sulfate-free cleansers remove buildup and oil without disrupting the lipid layer that keeps moisture locked inside the shaft.
From the rice terraces of Longsheng to your shower — the most powerful, clean haircare you have ever used.

FAQ
GOOD TO KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY.
It's built not to. The cleansing base is sulfate-free and pH-balanced, and the formula carries lightweight conditioners — rice bran oil, panthenol, aloe — so lengths keep their moisture while roots get degreased. Switching from liquid shampoo? Give it 2–3 washes to adjust.
Verified reviewers with oily scalps consistently report going from daily washing to every 2–3 days. We won't promise you a number — sebum production is yours, not ours — but the bar removes oil and buildup without the harsh strip that can leave hair feeling over-dry by day's end.
This one does. The coconut-derived cleanser produces a dense, foamy lather. Rub the bar directly on your scalp or between palms — a little goes a long way.
No. The Volumizing Shampoo Bar is a soap-free surfactant bar, not a saponified-oil soap — the kind that causes the waxy buildup bar shampoos are infamous for. It rinses clean, no residue.
Don't skip it — aim it. Use the The Volumizing Shampoo Bar conditioner bar on mid-lengths and ends only, and leave in for a couple of minutes before rinsing. It's formulated lightweight so it won't slick your roots. If your hair is very oily, condition every other wash.
Bright citrus — grapefruit and lime with a green undertone. It's a fresh, noticeable scent in the shower that dries down soft; a few reviewers find it stronger than our other bars.
Yes — most people need 2–3 washes for their hair to adjust from liquid shampoo to a bar formula. During that time your hair may feel slightly different as it clears out residue from previous products. Bleached hair typically adjusts faster than untreated hair because the cuticle is already more open. Stick with it past the first wash.
Yes — the clarifying wash helps remove the film that hard water and product buildup leave behind. Reviewers on well water report cleaner, shinier hair after switching.
Each bar lasts 60–80 washes, which is the equivalent of 2–3 bottles of liquid shampoo. The bar stays dry between uses when stored on a bamboo holder with airflow drainage, which extends its life significantly. If you are washing 2–3 times a week, one bar typically lasts 5–8 months.
