Make your own Shampoo Bars

Shampoo bars are big news and it's easy to see why. There's no waste (or plastic), simple to make and use and they are more concentrated than traditional shampoos so they last much longer. In fact, this kit is equivalent to 3-4 bottles of liquid shampoo!

Perfect for all the family, especially if your home has more than one bathroom and for travelling.

Our shampoo bar kit includes hair-loving ingredients, suitable for all hair types:

Shea butter moisturizes hair and scalp, reduces scalp irritation and helps prevent breakage. Grapefruit essential oil strengthens hair roots and excellent for general hair health. Rosemary essential oil for hair growth. Calendula helps remove dandruff and hydrates a dry scalp. Almond oil strengthens damaged hair and adds shine.

The absence of lye in this craft kit means it is safe for children to make too.
