Classic Sandalwood Grooming from Head to Toe
Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood Hair & Body Shampoo 200ml combines your everyday shampoo and body wash into one straightforward men's grooming essential.
Built around the classic Sandalwood collection, it's ideal for men who prefer a warmer, more traditional character from their grooming products. Use it to wash away sweat, excess oil and everyday build-up from the hair before using the same product across the body for a complete shower routine.
It's simple grooming with a more refined edge—particularly good if you already enjoy Sandalwood products and want to carry that same character through the rest of your routine.

What to Expect
Hair & Body Cleansing
Use one product to cleanse your scalp, hair and body, making your everyday shower routine considerably simpler.
Fresh, Clean Hair
Helps wash away the oil, sweat and everyday residue that naturally builds up through the hair and scalp.
Warm Sandalwood Character
Sandalwood gives this everyday cleanser a deeper, more traditional personality. It's a good direction for men who enjoy warm, woody grooming products rather than sharp or overly sweet fragrances.
Straightforward Daily Use
There's no complicated process involved. Wash your hair, cleanse your body and rinse thoroughly. It does exactly what an everyday shower product should.
Convenient 200ml Size
Compact enough for your gym or overnight bag while providing a practical amount for regular bathroom use.
How to Use
Wet your hair and body thoroughly with warm water.
Apply a small amount to your hair and massage it into your scalp using your fingertips. Work through the hair before rinsing thoroughly.
Apply another small amount to wet skin, create a lather and rinse clean.
If you've used heavier styling products such as clay, wax or pomade, repeat the shampoo process where necessary.
Follow with conditioner if your hair needs additional softness or manageability.
Barber's Advice
Don't judge how clean your hair is by how much shampoo you've used.
If you're regularly applying styling products, two smaller shampoos will often give you a better result than one large application. Your first wash starts breaking down the day's oil and styling residue, while the second gives you the opportunity to properly cleanse your scalp and hair.
Focus your fingertips around the roots rather than simply rubbing shampoo across the top.
If your hair is longer, coarse or naturally dry, we'd also recommend introducing a dedicated conditioner rather than expecting your cleanser to do everything.
Keep Your Sandalwood Routine Consistent
One of the advantages of finding a grooming range you like is being able to keep your routine consistent.
Start with Sandalwood Hair & Body Shampoo in the shower before moving onto your shaving routine. If you're using a Sandalwood shaving cream, aftershave or fragrance afterwards, everything works in the same general direction rather than several unrelated grooming products competing against each other.
You don't need every product in the collection. Pick the products you actually use and build from there.
A Better Option for the Gym
This is exactly the type of product that belongs in a gym bag.
Instead of carrying separate shampoo and body wash bottles, you've got one product that handles both jobs. That means less clutter, fewer leaking bottles and a quicker shower when you're trying to get back to work or get on with your day.
The same applies when travelling. Any product that can replace two bottles without complicating your routine earns its space in the wash bag.
Why We'd Choose It
Sandalwood is one of those fragrance directions that doesn't really need to follow trends.
Warm, masculine and traditional, it feels at home in men's grooming, particularly alongside shaving and barbering products.
Combine that with the practicality of a hair and body shampoo and you've got an everyday product that's easy to understand and easy to use.
For someone wanting to explore Taylor of Old Bond Street beyond shaving products, this is a logical place to start.

What can I pair with Taylor Sandalwood Hair & Body Shampoo?
