Shampoo Bars
Shampoo bars are ideal if you’re looking to go plastic-free without losing any of the hair loving qualities of a good shampoo. They’re also good value. One bar will typically last as long as two full bottles of shampoo.
Our bars are easy to hold having been designed with ergonomic ease in mind, they produce a rich foamy lather that spreads well and rinses out with minimal water. It will leave your hair feeling clean, nourished and smooth.
How is a shampoo bar different from soap? The base formula is similar to a body moisturising bar, but with additional hair-care ingredients added.
Ingredients: Sodium Coco-Sulphate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate, Argon Oil, Coconut Oil, Cocoa Butter, Decyl Glucoside, Varisoft, Cetyl Alcohol, Citric Acid, Benzyl Alcohol
Some of our ingredients explained:
Sodium Coco Sulphate:
SCS is a fatty acid derived from coconuts. This is what gives the shampoo bar its cleaning properties and creates the bubbles. It has been deemed completely safe to use, even in children’s shampoo.
Sodium Lauryl Sufoacetate:
Like SCS, SLSa is derived from coconut and palm oils and is safe, skin friendly cleanser that provides a rich quality lather. Unlike its dirtier cousin (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, or SLS), SLSa has a molecular structure much bigger which means it does not penetrate the skin.
Decyl Glucoside:
This has the very fancy name of a “non-ionic surfactant” which essentially means it reduces he surface tension of water, allowing a better clean. It is made from 100% corn or coconut, and is therefore classed as a totally natural ingredient.
Varisoft and Cetyl Alcohol:
These specialty ingredients are conditioning agents for wet hair. Basically, removing the need for a separate conditioner. The silky feel after using our shampoo bars is mostly down to the combination of these two ingredients.
Benzyl Alcohol:
Quite simply a preservative, making the bar last longer.
