Give Bar Soap Shampoo + Conditioner a try! Initially, I was skeptical if this form of shampoo + conditioner would even work and provide the moisturizing I needed in a conditioner. I have always been a bar soap user so I figured I would check it out. I am a true believer and total convert to bar Shampoo and Conditioner. I LOVE IT! But it took a while…
It truly took a long time to find products that worked. And I was relentless in ensuring we had the best product that would make our customers happy at Replenish Grocers. I have tried over 10++ brands over the years. Several did not lather. Others did not hydrate enough. Others were clunky to hold in the shower. Others left my hair oily. Many ask about the brand we carry at Replenish Grocers. It is a private label brand and can only be bought in bulk quantities. But we promise, it is the best of the best!
Here is how to use a shampoo bar or conditioner bar:
Hop on into the shower and wet your hair + the bar of shampoo
Slide the bar from the root to the tip 4 or so times
Then lather, rinse + follow with conditioner if needed. The conditioner bar may need a swipe or two more.
Keep it in a wooden tray that has some slats so it can dry out between uses and avoid letting it sit in water. This will keep it from disintegrating and last longer.
When traveling, carry it in a tin and try to dry it the best you can before putting it back in the tin to travel. We have a great travel case in store!
PRO TIP: Save all your pieces of soap. I find them clunky when the pieces get too small, so I put them in a soap saver. We carry a soap saver pouch made of natural sisal. It also gently exfoliates. The other option is to take your last pieces and mold them into your next bar. This works well too. After a few uses they truly become one bar.
And if Bar Shampoo and Conditioner is not your thing, not to worry! At Replenish Grocers, you will also have the option to refill your own bottle with liquid shampoo and/ or conditioner! We also carry an amazing leave in conditioner by Griffin Remedies which is a local San Francisco Bay Area company.
