No matter how much we love pretty and unique packaging, they always tend to harm the environment. Hence, its time that we make the shift to Shampoo Bars (if we can) so that we can reduce some plastic waste. These shampoo bars are not only environment friendly but are also organic which makes them super healthy for our scalp. I’ve included 10 Best Shampoo Bars in India that are made in India and are organic and it’s one step into a sustainable approach.
There are different types of shampoo bars that cater to different needs and are formulated with different ingredients. I’ve covered 10 shampoo bars that I feel are some of the best shampoo bars in India.
Benefits Of Using Shampoo Bars
- Zero Plastic Waste: The first benefit of using Shampoo Bars is no plastic waste. These shampoo bars are often warped in paper and do not contain any plastic containers. Few brands do send them in tin-based containers that can be easily re-used as a soap case.
- Contains Natural Ingredients: Shampoo Bars are usually made using natural butter, essential oils, glycerin, carrier oils, muds, and clays. These bars are great for the environment and even better for your hair
- Lasts Longer Than Bottle Shampoos: Shampoo bars surprisingly lasts longer than any bottle shampoos.
Cons Of Using Shampoo Bars
- If you don’t have your own bathroom and have to share it with others, then Shampoo bars can be a bit unhygienic if you start sharing it with others
- Shampoo Bars can make your hair greasy if not used properly.
