I recently have been testing out a shampoo bar and I
thought this would be a great product to review. I purchased the shampoo bar in my local health food shop. Another popular place that sells these are Lush. I
have recently attempted to greatly reduce the amount of plastic I use in my
life and in particular single use plastic. A change we all need to focus on. I
purchased this shampoo bar for €4.95. Some people may think this is expensive
for a bar of shampoo however I think I spend the same amount if not more on one
bottle of shampoo and the bar will last longer depending on the length of hair
you have.
I understand that some people avoid these types of
products as they are afraid they won’t clean the hair as well as generic
bottled shampoos. I must say that this a myth. My hair is perfectly clean after
using the bar and I have seen no negatives to using this bar except perhaps it
takes a small bit more time to wash my hair but this is minor. However, one
thing that is important to check before purchasing is that you are buying the
correct bar for your hair type. Depending if your hair is dry or oily you need
to buy the one that suits your hair just like you would when purchasing a
bottle of shampoo.
I rinse my hair and lather up the bar in my hands and
then apply the lather to my head. You can also directly rub the bar on your
head and it will lather up that way too.
I place mine on a shelf in the shower after use.
Alternatively, you can use a plate or a tin container to store your product.
Tin containers, available at Lush, are very useful storage when travelling with
these types of bars.
I picked up the Lavender and ylang ylang scent. This
smells incredible and the bar will last ages. I have used mine for about two
weeks now and the bar is still perfectly in tack. It has not lost its shape or
broken apart in any way.
I think more people should definitely try these out.
The amount of plastic we use in our bathroom alone is huge and also so unnecessary.
So I would urge people to change to these alternatives and to reduce plastic in
as many areas of their lives as possible.
