Why Go Silicone & Sulfate-Free Anyway? 

Sulfates are powerful cleansers that can strip your scalp and strands of natural oils, leading to dryness and irritation. While silicones may provide a quick, smooth finish, they tend to build up over time, blocking moisture and nutrients from reaching the scalp and hair. 

Skipping both allows your hair to breathe, reset, and thrive without harshness.

That’s where our shampoo bars come in. They gently cleanse without overdoing it, helping your hair keep its balance while saying goodbye to buildup.

Made with vegan, non-comedogenic ingredients and zero parabens or synthetic fragrances, they're just as beneficial to your hair as they are to the planet. Our formulas even include an olive-derived replacement for silicon, to give your locks a protective layer to smooth frizz, add shine, and provide heat protection. All of this without the build-up that silicon is known for.

If you're after eco-friendly, cruelty-free, gluten-free, and silicone-free formulas that actually work—this is your moment.

How Our Silicone and Sulfate-Free Shampoo Bars Work Their Magic 

The secret to our bars isn't magic. It's smart chemistry that works with your hair, not against it. 

We use gentle, plant-based surfactants instead of harsh sulfates to deliver a rich, satisfying lather that cleanses without stripping your natural oils. 

That means you get clean, healthy hair that still feels soft and balanced after every wash.

And because we skip silicones entirely, you won't get that heavy, waxy buildup that dulls your shine. Instead, your hair feels genuinely clean and light—ready to soak up moisture and nutrients.

This low-maintenance, high-performance formula has real benefits for your hair, from better scalp health to maintaining color vibrancy over time.

How To Use Silicone and Sulfate Free Shampoo Bars To Make Your Hair Slay

Switching to a silicone and sulfate-free shampoo bar is easy. Follow these simple steps to use them for the best results.

  1. Start with wet hair and a fully soaked shampoo bar. Water helps activate the lather and spread the product evenly.
  2. Rub the bar directly on your scalp or between your hands to build up a lather. Both options are viable, so choose the one that feels most comfortable.
  3. Massage the lather into your roots and work it through to your ends. Don’t forget the nape of your neck.
  4. Rinse thoroughly. Follow up with a HiBar conditioner bar to seal in moisture and keep your hair feeling smooth and soft.
  5. Let your bar dry completely between washes. Store shampoo bars upright or on a draining dish to help them last longer

Planning to travel? These silicone and sulfate-free shampoo bars are TSA-friendly and mess-free, making them a perfect companion when you travel with shampoo bars.

    Sometimes, your scalp may need a week or two to adjust, especially if you've used products with silicones or sulfates for years. Don’t worry—stick with it.

  • Are silicone- and sulfate-free shampoo bars safe for keratin-treated hair?

    Yes, silicone- and sulfate-free shampoo bars are excellent for keratin-treated hair. They help extend the life of your treatment by cleansing gently without stripping away the keratin protein.
