When I first tried a shampoo bar, my immediate reaction was, “Why isn’t this the norm?!”

Bars are such an easy, logical solution to the plastic crisis we are currently in since they virtually eliminate the need for plastic packaging.

Get this:

Packaging makes up nearly 30% of the total waste we generate.

Your Field Guide to Shampoo Bars 

If you have never heard of a shampoo bar, you may be a bit confused. Imagine if conventional shampoo and bar soap had a baby, that’s basically what it is.

Here’s the deal:

This product is a solid bar alternative to the more common liquid shampoo.

By being solid, it is more sustainable because it requires little to no packaging. Your hair will still feel moisturized and clean after being washed.

 

There’s more:

No compromises have to be made when it comes to making the switch from liquid to bar shampoo.

These products are available in many different scents and formulas, so you are bound to find the right one for you and your needs. 

It’s so simple to use! Wet your hair and gently massage the bar into it. Simply rinse and follow up with a conditioning bar if you so desire. Once you are done, be sure to allow the bar to air dry so it is ready for its next use. It’s so easy!

My favorite part is that once I finish a bar, I am left with nothing.

No waste to worry about sending to landfill or recycling. Reducing our material usage is the most straight-forward way to living a more sustainable life.

Okay, now that we understand what a shampoo bar is, let’s get into the details:

Five Reasons Why EcoRoots Shampoo Bars Are the Best Choice For Your Hair:

Here at EcoRoots, we are a one-stop-shop for all the sustainable products that you might need in your life. Shampoo bars are no exception! Do you want to know why I think that we carry the best shampoo bars on the market?

Here’s the scoop:

 1. Plastic-Free

We strive to make sure that all of our products are plastic-free.

When you choose one of our shampoo bars, you are eliminating the unnecessary plastic bottle that most beauty products come in.

Don’t worry:

We do not sneak in ANY plastic when it comes to shipping.

 

 

I have seen products that advertise themselves as being “eco-friendly” just to arrive in my mailbox covered in plastic wrap. That’s not the case with EcoRoots!

All of our packing materials are 100% biodegradable.

We use craft paper tape, cardboard, and recycled paper to package our materials. We provide thoughtful, plastic-free products that are safe to both our customers and the planet!

 

 2. Cruelty-Free & Vegan

None of our products are tested on animals because they do not have to be. We use all-natural, organic ingredients that we know are healthy for humans and for the Earth.

 

 

There’s more:

When we promise to be cruelty-free, we do not just stop there. All of our zero-waste shampoo bars use all vegan ingredients, as well.

Finally, beauty products that work great and are guilt-free!

Seriously:

Best shampoo bars ever!

 

3. SLS-Free

All of our shampoo bars are free of Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS). You may be wondering:

What the heck is that?

Well, It’s an ingredient that is commonly found in body wash, face wash, and you guessed it, shampoo. Here’s what it does:

SLS is used to make beauty products foam. Although SLS isn’t explicitly toxic, it is very common for people to develop a sensitivity to it. Many people with psoriasis, eczema, or just generally sensitive skin may have a reaction to it.

Don’t worry:

We do not want to take any chances when it comes to our customers, so we choose not to use SLS in any of our products, including our shampoo bars.

 

4. Palm Oil-Free

We do not only vow to make safe products for humans but for the planet, too. That is why our shampoo bars, are free of palm oil.

Palm oil may not initially seem like a bad guy since it is derived from plants, but swallow this:

Palm oil is contributing to the rapid deforestation of rainforests in Malaysia and Indonesia.

 

When we destroy habitats, there are extremely environmental and social consequences. Species such as the orangutan, Asian elephant, and tiger can not continue to exist if they do not have a home to occupy. It gets worse:

More than 50% of all products in any supermarket contain palm oil.

It is important to be aware of how the products we consume affect the world.

You can make a change by avoiding brands that are not committed to sustainability.

Choosing to make the switch to one of our zero-waste shampoo bars is a step in the right direction.

 

5. Long-Lasting

Do not underestimate a shampoo bar because of its size.

Although it might be smaller than your typical plastic bottle of shampoo, you really get your money’s worth. One EcoRoots shampoo bar will last anywhere between 50-75 washes.

There’s more:

Since you lather the bar onto your hair, you do not have to worry anymore about accidentally pouring too much shampoo out. You will use the exact amount you need every single time.

 

Another thing I love about shampoo bars is how easy they are to travel with. They are easier to get through airport security since they are not liquid. Also, their compact size makes it so easy to tuck away into any bag. Love it!
