What is solid shampoo?
Solid shampoo is essentially the same as liquid shampoo, just without the water. The mass is dehydrated, then pressed into a shape and dried. When used, water is added again so that foam forms for cleansing.
Advantages of solid shampoo
Solid shampoo is a great alternative to traditional liquid products. Compared to those, it offers three major benefits:
1. Solid shampoo is more environmentally friendly.
Less plastic in the bathroom – that sounds like a sustainable change worth making right away. Solid shampoo bars usually come in cardboard packaging, so unnecessary plastic waste is avoided. The eco-conscious approach is often reflected in the ingredients as well. Solid shampoos are often vegan, sulfate-free, silicone-free, mineral oil-free, alcohol-free, or fragrance-free.
2. Solid shampoo is more economical.
Because solid shampoo contains less water, it lasts longer than the liquid version. One bar of solid shampoo can last up to three times longer than a regular bottle of liquid shampoo. This not only reduces environmental impact but also saves you money.
3. Solid shampoo is ideal for travel.
If you pack solid shampoo, you no longer need to worry about liquid restrictions when flying. It’s also lightweight and space-saving, making it easy to fit into your hand luggage.
Which is better: hair soap or solid shampoo?
To answer this question, it’s important to clarify the difference between the two products. It’s quite simple:
- Solid shampoo is pH-neutral to slightly acidic, made from surfactants and other ingredients, and then pressed into shape.
- Hair soap, on the other hand, is alkaline in pH and made by boiling lye, fats, and oils, some of which remain in the soap.
Therefore, when using soap, the level of “superfatting” must be considered. If the soap contains a high amount of nourishing oils, it can cause fine hair to look greasy and limp soon after washing. However, for dry hair, this can actually be beneficial, as it provides extra nourishment.
Which solid shampoos are available for purchase?
Solid shampoos offer several advantages compared to liquid ones. At BellAffair, we are happy to share information about the features of each product so that choosing the right one becomes easier for you.
Foamie Solid Shampoo
The solid shampoo from Foamie is available in eight different varieties, covering all possible hair needs. From damaged to fine to color-treated hair, there is a formula with the right blend of ingredients to deliver maximum results. The product is free from silicones, mineral oils, plastic, and soap, and it is vegan and cruelty-free.
KMS Solid Shampoo
The solid shampoo from KMS features a highly concentrated, water-free formula and is made of more than 70% natural ingredients. It is free from sulfates, silicones, alcohol, synthetic colorants, and animal-derived ingredients. In addition, the packaging of these shampoos is reduced to minimize waste.
The KMS Solid Shampoos are available in two versions for different hair types:
- KMS Addvolume Solid Shampoo for fine, limp hair
- KMS Headremedy Solid Sensitive Shampoo for sensitive scalp
Solid Shampoo – Application and Storage
Using solid shampoo is just as simple as the product itself. Here’s how it works in four easy steps:
- Moisten the solid shampoo.
- Rub it between your hands or directly onto your hair to create lather.
- Distribute evenly through your hair.
- Rinse thoroughly.
As with conventional shampoo, it’s best to use a conditioner afterward when using solid shampoo. This is also available in solid form (for example, Foamie Solid Conditioner).
Solid shampoo should always be stored in a dry place. You can hang it up to dry or keep it in a suitable storage box.
