I got interested in creating my own haircare products after someone mentioned shampoo bars to me, and I actually tried using a cold-processed soap recipe that was formulated for hair. About three days into using it, though, I totally gave up and realized that is not going to work for my hair.
After about a year of researching and formulating, I had a product that I felt comfortable sharing. I use it, my husband uses it, and we both like it!
There are a couple of advantages to solid shampoo;
1) no waste from an empty bottle and
2) it is already TSA-compliant since it is not liquid.
I do still use a conditioner after rinsing and have added a solid conditioner bar to my product offering.
One thing to know about the shampoo is that I include very little fragrance — about 1% of the formula, so you may not really get a whiff of it until it’s wet and lathering.
