Let's not forget about our men! They will love this zero-waste swap (...and so will you after you smell them and watch them embrace environmental activism).
Description
Replace his plastic shampoo bottle with this non-toxic, plastic-free, zero-waste alternative. This long-lasting (up to 75 washes), concentrated shampoo bar is free of harsh chemicals and uses 100% plant-based ingredients to deeply clean his dirty hair and leave it smelling irresistible all day long. This package-free shampoo bar cuts out plastic waste by cutting out the wasteful water weight in traditional shampoos.
How to use/end of life (for him)
First lather the bar in your hands or lather directly in your wet hair by swirling it near your scalp with your hands. When you're happy with the amount of suds, wash and rinse your hair like normal. When you're ready to condition, swirl the bar on your scalp until it feels silky. Let it sit for a few minutes to deeply moisturize or rinse it immediately.
All shampoo bars will break apart into small pieces after many uses. Try smooshing the pieces back together or put them aside for easy travel-sized pieces!

Additional Ingredients Information
Sodium cocoyl isethionate (SCI) is a natural ingredient derived from coconut oil and is a common surfactant ingredient that helps in creating the amazing suds that you love in your shampoos.Â
Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate (SLSA) should not be mistaken for Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). SLS is a synthetic ingredient while SLSA is naturally derived from coconut and palm oils. They are both surfactants that create bubbles and lather in cleansers, but that is where the similarity ends. SLSA is mild for your hair, removes oils and bacteria and has good cleansing properties.
Behentrimonium methosulfate is an emulsifier that helps bind together the water and oils in this bar to make it rich and have a creamy feeling. It is derived from the oils that come from rapeseed.
Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is an ingredient derived from coconut oil to make products thicker and creamier.
Cetyl alcohol is used as a thickening agent and opacifier and derived from vegetable oils like coconuts.
