HOW TO USE

Solid Shampoo Bars

  1. Wet both the shampoo bar and your hair
  2. Apply the bar directly to your wet hair
  3. Massage the shampoo bar into your scalp until it forms a gentle lather, work into the roots
  4. Rinse your hair thoroughly before using your favourite KIND2 solid conditioner bar (if required)

HOW TO STORE

Keep your bars cool and dry

When stored correctly, your shampoo and conditioner bars will remain solid, dry and keep their shape. Better still, they will last 2-3 times longer than a standard bottle of liquid shampoo or conditioner.

FAQ

All KIND2 shampoo bars are pH balanced and have been created specifically to perform well in hard (alkaline water) with no transition period. If you prefer higher foaming shampoo bars or you live in an area with very hard water, then we'd recommend The Rebalancing One.

Avoid using soap based bars in hard water, as you will an unpleasant experience a waxy residue. Learn more about why here.

pH balanced shampoo bars are like concentrated versions of the liquid shampoo that you are probably used to. They include plant based cleansers which work to remove oil and dirt when combined with water. Wet the bar and your hair, apply the bar directly, massage into a lather and rinse. Depending on your hair, you may need to use a conditioner bar to detangle and nourish.

They might look like soap, but they’re not. Our solid haircare bars are made with gentle coconut cleansers and plant based oils, pH balanced to your scalp and hair. Soap is made by saponification which creates a bar that has a high or alkaline pH that’s not good for hair.

All of our shampoo bars are formulated to a pH level of between 5.0 and 6.5. This means they are close to the natural pH of your hair which minimises irritation and there is no “transition” period or vinegar rinse required.

You can read more about why pH matters for hair and scalp health here.

We’re happy to say that we don’t use any palm oil or palm oil derivatives in our shampoo or conditioner bars. If you want to avoid palm oil - look out for not just the word palm in the ingredient list but also Polyglyceryl-4 Laurate, as it’s commonly found in cheaper bars.

Learn more about palm oil in shampoo here.

Yes, all our shampoo bars are formulated to be colour safe and they won’t strip or fade your dyed hair. Coloured or highlighted hair can be dry or porous, so it needs gentler cleansing ingredients to prevent fading and oils to protect and smooth.

The Rebalancing One works best for oily or greasy hair with a combination of ingredients which help break the cycle of over-production oil that can be created by harsh detergents in some liquid shampoos. It’s formulated to clean without stripping your natural oils.

Curly hair tends to be dry and caring for it requires gentle cleansing, preferably without harsh sulphates or silicones. The Hydrating One shampoo bar is not only formulated with curls in mind, it is pH balanced (between 5.5 - 6) plus contains Cocoa Butter and hair loving oils of Coconut, Hemp Seed and Macadamia.

All KIND2 shampoo bars are formulated to be gentle and suitable for children aged 3 and over.

Children have delicate skin that can be irritated by fragrances (sometimes called parfum) and synthetic dyes, we don’t use either.

If you or your child have sensitive skin or scalp, we recommend our fragrance free shampoo bar The Sensitive One.

Very good product, but site full of dark patterns.

I came back to get more of probably the best wet shampoo replacement that I have tried, and I liked who I bought the previous one off in person.

But the site seems to be full of bear traps that may be standard ‘marketing’ and ‘sales’ but are hostile to privacy and agency, such as the quiz which waits until the end to demand that you share an email (ie hand over PII or service is withheld): horrible behaviour and entirely unnecessary and probably illegal under UK&EU GDPR. I abandoned my purchase attempt entirely one day, and only got through it (and more bad behaviour, such as a pre-ticked “send me marketing” check box) the second day with quite a lot of rage. Please don’t do these things to your fellow humans. Please go on making the good shampoo bar, though I really never want to encounter your site again, so I may have to look elsewhere.

Damon, glad to hear that you think our Shampoo Bar is probably the best you have tried. We are sorry that you feel our website hostile. We take privacy concerns seriously. Our quiz is optional and we do provide information on the hair concerns for each bar on the navigation and product pages, any purchase can be made without subscribing to email marketing.

Washes my fine oily hair well. No irritation to my sensitive scalp.
I'm eastern Asian so not all shampoo works great for me.
Only con is it doesn't lather amazingly but it still foams, if you're coming from liquid heads up (no pun intended).

thanks so much for your lovely review, we're really happy to hear our Shampoo Bar works well for your hair and scalp.

My favorite shampoo bar!

This is hands down my favorite shampoo bar! I’ve had a really hard time finding a bar that can actually clean my hair as well as a bottled cleanser, and this is the first shampoo bar I actually finished. I absolutely love the rosemary smell. I am very sensitive to overpowering smells and this bar does not bother me at all. My hair feels super clean after washing, but not stripped. I will say that in order to get any foam or to have that lathering feel you do need to double cleans. One wash usually works great for me, but on the days I go longer between wash days a double cleans is definitely needed.

The best shampoo bar

I've been using this shampoo bar for years now. It took me a while trying out different brands until I found the right one. This works perfectly for me. I still have normal salon visits without any problems and also hi-lights which doesn't make any difference to how well the shampoo bar works. I have healthy hair without using all the chemicals or plastic so I'm happy.
