FAQs
What is a shampoo bar?
A shampoo bar is a solid form of shampoo that functions similarly to traditional liquid shampoo but is more concentrated. Shampoo bars are an environmentally friendly alternative to bottled shampoo as they require less packaging and are often free from harsh chemicals. They are also easier for travel as they pack easily and are not limited to the TSA liquid regulations or prone to spillage in your luggage like traditional shampoos.
Do shampoo bars leave buildup?
Shampoo bars can leave buildup if not rinsed thoroughly or if they contain ingredients that are not easily rinsed away. To prevent buildup, choose a shampoo bar with gentle, water-soluble ingredients and ensure thorough rinsing after each use. Ensure you rinse all layers of your hair to avoid buildup or weighing down your hair with residue.
Do you need conditioner with a shampoo bar?
Conditioner is not always necessary when using a shampoo bar, as some bars contain conditioning ingredients that leave the hair feeling soft and manageable. People with dry or damaged hair may benefit from using a separate conditioner to provide additional hydration and nourishment.
Can you use shampoo bars every day?
Using shampoo bars every day can be suitable for some people, but it may lead to over-cleansing and dryness for others. It's important to consider your hair type and scalp condition when deciding on the frequency of use. See how your hair responds after a single use of a shampoo bar and continue use or reduce the frequency of use as needed.
Do shampoo bars strip hair?
No, shampoo bars do not strip hair if you choose a shampoo bar with gentle ingredients and a balanced pH. Our line of solid shampoo bars helps prevent stripping and maintain hair health.
What are the benefits of using shampoo bars?
Most shampoo bars don’t contain detergent-based ingredients, sulfates, or parabens typically found in traditional liquid shampoos. Liquid shampoos often contain harsh chemicals that strip the hair of its natural oils and nourishing hydration. Shampoo bars as an alternative often have restorative ingredients that improve the look and feel of your hair.
How do I store shampoo bars?
When you are not using your shampoo bar, it is important to store it in a cool and dry place to prevent melting or dissolving, extend its use, and help it last longer. A soap dish with drainage is an ideal place to store shampoo bars similar to how you would store a bar of soap. Shampoo bars exposed to water or steam when not in use can become mushy and difficult to use.
