Add to Cart: These Shampoo Bars Lessen Your Plastic Use And Guarantee Healthy Hair

Shampoo bars aren't entirely new—they've actually been around for quite a while, with eco-conscious ladies being big fans. These bars resemble bar soaps you would traditionally use on your body, only they're specifically made for your tresses. 

During this entire pandemic, our usage of single-use plastic and other materials have truly skyrocketed, due to the fear that comes along with contaminated things like masks, shopping bags, etc. Truly, some things have to be disposed off as soon as you use them, especially if you've been out and about, but if you're on a mission to lessen your consumption of single-use plastic, then incorporating this practice into your beauty routine can make a big impact in the long run!

Shampoo bars are solid shampoos that you rub on your wet hair, and work up a lather just like other shampoos. They often come naked, as in without any packaging, or in eco-friendly options such as recycled paper or cloth. And just like your favorite traditional shampoos, these too are infused with amazing ingredients. Ahead, we give you three of the newest shampoo bars on our radar, so you can start giving your hair the eco-friendly TLC it needs:

Human Heart Nature Natural Shampoo Bar

Human Heart Nature has long been an advocate for earth-friendly, human-loving products, and this time around, their bottled goodness comes in a shampoo bar so you get to enjoy the amazing formula with less plastic use! Unbox the goodness that comes in every shampoo bar, a citrusy vanilla scent that matches your scalp's natural pH level. It now also comes with richer lather and foam so every shower is much more enjoyable and sensorially satisfying! At P249.75, get a bang out of your buck as this bar lasts two times longer than two bottles of 180ml liquid shampoo! Now that's a steal for both your pocket and the planet!

Lush Posh Shampoo Bar

Lush, our go-to for some of the best body products around launches its newest shampoo bar, the 'Posh' bar, the pretty gold and black bar that's a great addition to any bath. What's great about it is that it's both a shampoo and a conditioner, helping you save more in the long run. This variant has the sophisticated scent of jasmine and oudh, a woody floral scent for those who prefer something a bit more romantic. It even boasts of activated charcoal, known to help draw out toxins from the scalp, to help in the healthy hair growth process.  This bar can provide 60-100 washes, and will prevent three plastic bottles from ending up in a landfill.
