Yes, we are talking about the comeback trail of shampoo bars. This niche beauty product is compact and convenient to use with a watch on the environmental concerns playing on the mind of the public. They are certain to appeal to the natural beauty along with the ecospace-conscious fans. But does this transition from solution to solid really works? Let’s read about the 8 reasons which proves that shampoo bars are actually better than your regular bottle of hair wash.
1.) SHAMPOO BARS ARE PACKAGE FREE!
This has to be the first reason which make shampoo bars better than your bottled shampoos. These little, gooey bars don’t require packaging, so they are a much better environment friendly option as compared to its bottled counterparts. I scoured the internet to find some solid facts surrounding the use of shampoos – as to how many bottles of shampoo are in circulation globally. I found that according to U.S. Census and Simmons National Consumer Survey (NHCS), approximately 298.83 million Americans used shampoo in the year 2017. Arguably so, maximum of the population is using some or the other form of bottled shampoo or hair wash which amounts to a serious lot of plastic bottles – this number doesn’t even include the miniature bottles used in hotels worldwide.
By switching to shampoo bars and conditioners, you might just barely be able to make a dent in the number, but someone has to start doing it. Moreover, as more and more people convert, more and more plastic bottles will be rerouted from the landfills and waterways.
2.) SHAMPOO BARS ARE VERY CONCENTRATED!
After all, who doesn’t want their shampoo to last longer? The best shampoo bars in India are more concentrated than your traditional bottles of hair washes, so use them less as per application and they will last much longer. This especially stands true when you take proper care, like not letting the bar soak in water by storing them in a proper soap tin.
3.) SHAMPOO BARS ARE GREAT FOR TRAVEL!
Wouldn’t you want to have your shampoo in a solid shape of a bar which you can just throw in your bag and take wherever you want? Shampoo bars and conditioners offers just that same privilege. You no longer have to worry about any spillage as they are perfect travel companion – small and lightweight. They are also TSA approved which ensures that you don’t have to carry several hair care products to keep your hair in place, one single bar will fulfil the need.
4.) SHAMPOO BARS ARE SPACE SAVERS!
Yes, they are great space savers too! Shampoo bars and conditioners are much more smaller and lightweight that the bottled shampoos, they also save you space in relation to the number of washings in the same amount of product. They also come in handy in a variety of conditions like keeping your bathroom cabinet decluttered or keeping your camping or travelling pouch sorted and light.
5.) SHAMPOO BARS SHOWCASE MINIMALISM AT ITS FINEST!
They sure are a minimalistic aesthetic to your bathroom. It will reduce the cluttered look of your bottle of shampoos and conditioners. We bet you will like the whole feel of things looking neutral as the packaging of shampoo bars aren’t intrusive or flashy. They will effortlessly blend with the character of your bathroom. You can also neatly stack up a set of colourful bars on a granite dish with golden edges, right beside your solid bars of soap. This will significantly reduce the clutter and will make your bathroom look cleaner!
6). SHAMPOO BARS OFFER A LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT!
The overall carbon footprint is way lesser in shampoo bars and conditioner bars as compared to their bottled counterparts. So, roughly 10-15 transport trucks of liquid shampoo would be required to fit in one transport truck of solid shampoo bars, and still get the same number of washes!
7.) SHAMPOO BARS ARE MULTI-PURPOSE!
Shampoo bars aren’t exclusively designed for cleaning just the hair, you can also use them for other purposes like washing your body or clothes and even your pets in a pinch. Similarly, conditioner bars are a triple duty for shaving bars and in-shower moisturizers.
8.) SHAMPOO BARS LEAVE HAIR FEELING CLEAN!
Shampoo bars and conditioners are a natural option! They will neither leave your hair feeling like a gummy bar nor make them too dry. They are highly sustainable, accessible and stylish, while they also leave your hair feeling clean, healthy and gorgeous.
