Best Shampoo Bars to buy (in India)
With the tide turning on plastic use all over the world, one product that is on every zero-waste enthusiast is a shampoo bar. It is being heralded as one of the easiest green-switch (or swap) that one can make to make a baby step towards a more sustainable lifestyle.
But, first thing first.
What even is a shampoo bar? Well, a shampoo bar is shampoo in a solid bar form which you can use to clean your hair. And yes, it works the same, even better. There are countless advantages to switch to a shampoo bar. Some of them currently swimming in my mind are:
- It uses very less water to produce as compared to a liquid shampoo. Quite obviously.
- It doesn’t need a plastic container to store like a plastic bottle used for liquid shampoo.
- It lasts longer than its liquid counterpart. So you save money and the environment.
- It is mostly free of the nasty toxins (bad for us as well as the environment) usually used in liquid shampoos.
- As it is leak proof, it is one’s best companion for travels.
- Most shampoo bars are made of natural components and essential oils, so there is rarely use of a conditioner to follow up, cutting down furthermore plastic waste. Win-win.
