Fresh, Simple Grooming from Head to Toe
Taylor of Old Bond Street Royal Forest Hair & Body Shampoo 250ml gives you one product for two of the most basic parts of your daily routine: washing your hair and cleansing your body.
The Royal Forest range has a fresher, more contemporary personality within Taylor of Old Bond Street's traditionally styled grooming collection. It makes this hair and body shampoo a solid choice for men who want the quality and heritage associated with the brand but prefer something that feels lighter and more modern for everyday use.
At 250ml, there's plenty for regular use at home while still being convenient enough to throw into a gym or travel bag.
Is This Product Right for You?
Royal Forest Hair & Body Shampoo is a good choice if you:
- Want one product for both hair and body.
- Prefer fresh grooming products over heavier traditional styles.
- Want to simplify your shower routine.
- Regularly exercise or shower at the gym.
- Travel and want to reduce the number of products you pack.
- Use styling products and want a straightforward daily cleanser.
- Enjoy premium men's grooming without unnecessary complexity.
What to Expect
Hair & Body Cleansing
One bottle handles both jobs. Work it through the hair and scalp before using it across the body for a complete everyday cleanse.
Fresh Hair
Helps clear away excess oil, sweat and everyday styling residue that can leave hair feeling heavy or difficult to style.
Clean Skin
Use it as your everyday body cleanser to wash away the day's sweat and grime and leave your skin feeling refreshed.
Easy Morning Routine
No complicated system and no collection of half-used bottles around the shower. One product gives you the essentials you need to get clean and get moving.
Generous 250ml Size
A practical size for regular home use, particularly if a hair and body wash is your primary shower product.
How to Use
Wet your hair thoroughly before applying a small amount of shampoo.
Massage it through the scalp and roots using your fingertips, then work the lather through the rest of your hair before rinsing thoroughly.
For the body, apply to wet skin using your hands or a body cloth, work into a lather and rinse clean.
If you've used a substantial amount of styling product, shampoo twice where necessary rather than using an excessive amount in one wash.
Barber's Advice
How you wash your hair matters almost as much as what you're washing it with.
Most of the oil and build-up you're trying to remove sits around your scalp and roots. Spend some time massaging shampoo into those areas rather than quickly rubbing it across the top of your hair.
If you're a regular clay, wax or pomade user, you may notice the first shampoo doesn't create much lather. That's normal when there's significant product and oil present. Rinse and repeat with a smaller amount for a more thorough cleanse.
For longer or naturally dry hair, follow with a dedicated conditioner when needed.
An Easy Gym-Bag Essential
Hair and body washes make a lot of sense when you're away from your own bathroom.
Instead of carrying separate shampoo and body wash bottles, Royal Forest handles both. That means less space taken up in your gym bag, overnight bag or suitcase and one less product to remember.
It's particularly useful if you train before work and need something straightforward for getting showered and out the door quickly.
Keep Your Grooming Routine Simple
Men's grooming can become unnecessarily complicated.
You don't need a separate product for every minute of your morning. Start with products that solve the basics properly, then add additional grooming products only where they genuinely improve your routine.
A quality hair and body cleanser, a reliable styling product, deodorant and your preferred fragrance will cover what many men actually need every day.
Royal Forest fits comfortably into that approach.
Why We'd Choose It
We're always interested in grooming products that make a routine better without making it longer.
A hair and body shampoo is about convenience, but that doesn't mean the product itself needs to feel generic.
Royal Forest combines the simplicity of an all-in-one cleanser with the more refined character you'd expect from Taylor of Old Bond Street.
For men wanting an everyday Taylor product with a fresher direction, this is an easy place to start.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Royal Forest Hair & Body Shampoo?

Can I use it as my regular shampoo?
Yes. Work it through wet hair and concentrate particularly on cleansing the scalp and roots before rinsing thoroughly.
Can I use it as body wash?
Yes. Apply it to wet skin, create a lather and rinse thoroughly just as you would with your regular body wash.
Can I use it every day?
It can form part of your regular shower routine. How frequently you personally need to shampoo will depend on your scalp, hair type, lifestyle and styling habits.
Does it remove styling products?
It's suitable for everyday cleansing and normal styling residue. Heavier clays, waxes and pomades may require a second shampoo.
Do I need to use conditioner afterwards?
Not necessarily. However, men with longer, coarse or naturally dry hair may benefit from following with a conditioner.
Is Royal Forest suitable for short hair?
Yes. It's particularly convenient for short men's hairstyles where you're looking for straightforward cleansing without a complicated haircare routine.
Is it useful for the gym?

Yes. Multipurpose grooming products are an easy way to reduce the number of toiletries you need to carry when travelling.
What's the difference between a hair and body wash and a shampoo and conditioner?
Hair and body wash describes where you can use the product—your hair and skin. Shampoo and conditioner describes two different haircare functions: cleansing and conditioning.
