What You Need to Know About Our New Shampoo and Conditioner Bars

Dear Earthlings,

We have been listening to your requests and working hard behind the scenes to bring you ALL NEW shampoo and conditioner bars! While we love our original bars, there are some great changes in these new additions. Our new bars maintain the same plastic-free goodness, while having great benefits for your hair and the environment.

The bars have new sulfate-free formulas and are made without gluten-containing ingredients. 

We switched our surfactant from Coco-Sulfate (SCS) to Baby Foam (Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate SCI). This new formula is more inclusive of different hair types, making it safer for curly and wavy hair. By eliminating the wheat germ oil from our conditioner bars, they are now formulated without gluten-containing ingredients. These bars are formulated to leave your hair feeling clean, moisturized, and protected.

A balanced pH for your hair

The new bars have a balanced pH to promote healthy hair and growth. The shampoo bars are between 4-5.5 and the conditioner bars are 5-5.5 on the pH scale, products that fall within this range help maintain your hair’s acidity. This acidity is important for protecting your hair from bacteria and fungi, along with helping your hair hold moisture and prevent breakage.

Better Value Bars

All shampoo bars will now be 3 oz. and all conditioner bars will be 2 oz. This size change means you get a better value out of the new bars. While this change may not seem that large it pays off over time saving your’s and the Earth’s resources. We are working to have more of these bars in stock, ready to ship whenever you need them!

Let’s Talk Scents! 

Most of our bars are now only scented with plant-based natural fragrance oils. The exceptions are our Simple Fresh scent which is scented with corn mint essential oil and our Unscented option which is fragrance-free. These natural fragrance oils are different from the synthetic fragrances that most shampoos and conditioners use. If you want to learn more about fragrances, scents, and their sustainability, click HERE. With this improvement, you may notice a scent change in the new bars. Essentially, we are keeping the same scent names as before and making them more eco-friendly.
