How to use
Good to know
One bar, no bottle, no harsh sulfates
Most liquid shampoos are mostly water, thickened and preserved, then packed in plastic. Our Shampoo and Conditioner Bar is a solid, concentrated alternative. It is made from a carefully chosen blend of plant oils and adjusted for pH in every batch, so it is kinder to hair than ordinary bar soap. It cleans without the harsh sulfate detergents that can leave hair rough and the scalp tight. For the bigger picture, see our guide to non toxic hair care.
A closer look at the oils
Olive, coconut and shea
These form the backbone of the bar. Coconut provides cleansing lather, while olive and shea add slip and softness.
Argan oil
Argan oil is a classic in hair care, loved for helping hair look smooth and glossy.
Castor and avocado oils
Castor oil builds a rich, stable lather that holds up through thick hair. Avocado oil adds a conditioning feel.
Black seed oil
Black seed oil, from the Nigella sativa plant, has a long tradition in scalp care and helps the scalp feel comfortable and cared for.
Essential oils
A blend of essential oils gives the bar a light, natural scent.
What we leave out
- No SLS or SLES, the foaming agents behind that stripped, squeaky feeling.
- No cyclic silicones, which coat hair and can build up over time.
- No synthetic fragrance, no parabens and no methylisothiazolinone, a preservative linked to contact allergy.
Who it is for
This bar is a good fit for people who want fewer bottles in the shower, travelers who need something that will not leak, and anyone stepping away from sulfates and silicones. If you are coming from a silicone heavy routine, give your hair a week or two to adjust. It may feel different at first while old buildup washes away.
How to get the most from it
Wet your hair thoroughly. Glide the bar over your scalp a few times, set it down, and work the lather through with your fingertips. Rinse very well, since leftover residue is the most common cause of a heavy feel. Between washes, let the bar dry completely on a draining dish away from the shower stream. A dry bar stays firm and lasts many washes.
Questions about Shampoo and Conditioner Bar
How long does a shampoo bar last?
It depends on hair length, how often you wash, and above all how the bar dries between uses. A shampoo bar kept on a draining dish away from the shower spray lasts far longer than one left in a puddle. Many people find one bar replaces more than one bottle of liquid shampoo.
Why does my hair feel waxy after using a shampoo bar?
A waxy or heavy feel is usually leftover residue or an adjustment period after switching from silicone products. Rinse longer than you think you need to. Hard water can also contribute. Some people like an occasional diluted apple cider vinegar rinse to help hair feel lighter.
Is a sulfate free shampoo bar good for curly hair?
Many people with curly or wavy hair prefer sulfate free cleansers because harsh sulfates can leave curls dry and frizzy looking. A conditioning bar with oils like argan, shea and avocado is a gentle option. Pair it with your usual leave in products as needed.
Do I need conditioner with a shampoo and conditioner bar?
Many people find a two in one bar is enough on its own, especially with shorter or finer hair. If your hair is long, thick or very dry, you might still like a little leave in oil or conditioner on the ends. Try the bar alone first and adjust from there.
