Long/medium/short hair… Yes Care

Taking care of your hair takes an effort. Finding the right shampoo that suits your hair type, produces the results you want and is also affordable can be challenging but equally rewarding. 

Having a good hair day can do wonders for your mood, but what about the environment? 

You may ask, "What does our hair have to do with the environment?" (Our hair is our hair, none of your hair.) Finding the right products was difficult enough, now we have to think of the environment too? 

Yes, we do. Let's do some math. The average person consumes up to 6-7 bottles of shampoo every year (considering you wash your hair 2-3 times a week). If we multiply that with the shampoo- user-population, the resulting number is overwhelmingly huge. We haven't even considered the bottles used in hotels that are replaced for every new guest. The amount of plastic waste generated by using shampoo bottles alone causes irreparable damage to the environment. 

"Is there an eco-friendly alternative to shampoo bottles?” 

Yes, the alternative is Shampoo Bars. Hear us out. Imagine an entire plastic bottle of shampoo replaced with a single bar with minimal packaging. They are not only better for the environment with their plastic-free packaging but also cost-effective. They are concentrated and last longer- so you will save money. They are biodegradable and sustainable - so you will help the planet. They are also travel-friendly- so you will save space in your luggage. We see it as a win-win situation.

“Are shampoo bars safe for my hair?”

Absolutely. Unlike other shampoos with toxic chemicals, shampoo bars have a healthier composition. They are made  with natural and safe ingredients like clay and essential oils. They are gentle and hydrating (like a soft hug, but for your hair). You can choose the most suitable option according to your hair texture (wavy, curly, straight) and hair problem (dandruff, frizz, hair fall). 

“Where can I find the best shampoo bars?”

Several homegrown brands offer a beautiful range of shampoo and conditioner bars including, The Earth Rhythm, The Nature Masons, and The Switch Fix. 

A breath of fresh hair...

Getting used to any new product takes time and shampoo bars are no different. While it may take some effort to adjust to them, shampoo bars are so worth it! Depending on the length of your hair and the brand of your choice, they are likely to last up to 80 washes or more. Climate change is real and we need to do our bit to help save the planet. You and I can start by switching to a safer alternative.
