Difference between Whole Blends shampoo bar and a soap?

Shampoo Bars are a solid shampoo but not a soap. They offer all the benefits of a liquid shampoo – foamy, cleansing and nourishing! Garnier’s scientists have developed a perfect formula. It has been designed to use on your hair and not on your body.

Why should I make the switch to Whole Blends shampoo bar?

Switching to a Shampoo Bar doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice having nourished and healthy-looking hair. By purchasing and using your Solid Shampoo Bar you help to fight plastic pollution one hair wash at a time. Let’s raise the bar on shampoo!

Can I use Solid Shampoo on Curly Hair, too?

Yes! Our Honey Treasures, Oat Delicacy, and Ginger Recovery Shampoo Bars can be used to nourish straight, wavy, and curly hair. Let us know your favorite blend in the reviews!

Third Time Is A Charm

Third Time Is A Charm
I’m these photos I’m on day 2 of no washing. My hair is a bit messy due to humidity so don’t get me wrong, this is an amazing product. This is the third shampoo bar I’ve used. I started with J.R. Ligott’s Original bar, I finished that and moved to an off brand fermented rice bar, and now this bar. These shampoo bars are almost like washing your hair with oil, especially the J.R. Ligott’s bars, but don’t let that steer you away. My hair has never been healthier, with such great texture, and so much new growth. The problem I had with the other two bars was my hair got oily too fast. I wash my hair every 2-4 days. I try my best to shoot for 4. I have curly hair, A LOT OF IT, and the strands are extremely fine. I saw that this is for fine to normal hair so I decided to try it. It has the rice starch and oat starch in it that helps with hair growth. It is more chemically than I would like but it makes my hair so nice and I can go 4 days between washes with no problem. This bar makes my hair feel so soft. I have gotten so use to shampoo bars that the lack of scent is not a problem. It makes your hair smell very natural and clean, a little earthy. Shampoo bars last for months I have yet to finish this bar and I’m excited to see how long it lasts. If you want to save money, help the planet, and make your hair super nice I recommend this shampoo bar. I recommend this bar for men, women, and children alike. It’s amazing.

This is a really nice bar shampoo. The smell of the bar itself is very pleasant and it makes my bathroom smell good. But the great thing is that when you use it on your hair and then rinse, it doesn't leave any scent in your hair. I find that the shampoo keeps my hair nice and soft - the previous brand I'd tried was extremely drying. At the same time, it fully cleans my hair and gets rid of all the sweat and oil in my hair. It lathers very well too. I'll buy this again.

Scent: HoneySize: 2 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
Have been using this bar for over a month now. I have fine, thinish hair. We have a whole house water softener system, otherwise we would have very hard water. Now with that out of the way, I love how the bar lathers up and cleans my hair. No residue and no need for a conditioner after. I rub the bar on my hands rather than directly onto my head, making sure I have lots of water in my hair so that the lather is evenly distributed throughout my hair. This method works very well for me. It rinses clean and leaves my hair feeling soft.
The only downside for me is the intensity of the scent. It is much too strong even though the site shows it to be low intensity.
My bar sits on a wire shelf at the back of my shower so it does dry out between uses; have not had it get mushy. I wash my hair every other day and my bar hardly shows any use so it should last quite some time.

I had no idea "shampoo bars" existed when I saw a short video on them on SnapChat of all places - haha. It piqued my interest. I don't consider myself big on recycling or green issues, but there are things that are common sense to me, like the enormous amount of packaging waste. I don't go out of my way, but if it makes sense to me or even saves me money with little to no extra effort, I'll do it. For example, I do use cloth diapers for my kids.

Anyway, even buying the "big bottle" 33.8oz Garnier shampoos and conditioners, that's a lot of bottles, recycled or not, and all those pumps and straws! Add to that I have some sort of skin sensitivity. For the past 10 plus years my hands get rashes and cracks, in the fall and winter especially. No lotion helps. I had a steroid cream once that sorta helped. Plus I have generally itchy skin all over. Zertec helps with the itch, but not the rash. Someone mentioned to me her son was diagnosed with an allergy to a common soap additive. It's not in the shower or hand soap I use but it's all over liquid shampoos! It's not in this bar. So the shampoo was the last thing possibly irritating my hands and skin.

How's the hair? I have long (past my waist) fine, light toned, not chemically treated hair. And a lot of it - the quantity of strands is plentiful, no thinning. Stick straight, no texture. I don't blow dry or curl - pointless between the length and the lack of texture. All I do is brush it then put it in a bun or braid - both of which are reasons I keep it long. If I leave it down, especially if it's shoulder length or shorter, it looks stringy. I would say it is "normal," being niether oily nor dry. My scalp is healthy. I use hairspray to keep the strays in place with my bun, so that needs to get washed out and that's about my only real concern.

I used to have to use coal tar shampoo once a week to do a deep clean. My hair would be so clean, I wouldn't even have to condition because it's so soft and silky (a huge advantage for natural hair, but does limit my styling ability). I don't even have to do that with this bar. Clean every time, though if it feels extra heavy with hairspray I wash twice. Gets a good lather. I condition once or twice a week, just when I feel it needs some detanging help, not for actual softness. This is a huge change for me, as I used large amounts of conditioner previous. If your asking where the companion conditioner is, you may not need any! And my hands have not been irritated and only started to get dry with single digit temperatures outside, like a normal person.

Follow the directions. I looked into many different bars before settling on this one. Price and targeted hair type were my 2 biggest concerns. I specifically looked for a bar for fine hair and with a few candidates, this seemed the best value (and just so happened to be the same brand I have used for 20ish years). I will continue with this. But read the directions as not all bars are used and stored the same. Store "dry", on a soap saver out of the stream and splash of you shower. I have mine on a wall caddy in the back of the shower. Apply to scalp/roots and work down. It says not to pull your hair up into it, but work it down.... I pull my length up into it and that works just fine.

It's been over a month and I probably have another month or so left, so it lasts a reasonable amount of time, this bar was on the small side based on my research (I figured if bar shampoo didn't work out, I didn't make too much of a commitment). I plan on introducting my 6 year old son to it, as he hates shampooing and doesn't want liquid shampoo to get in his eyes, a real panic for him. He likes bar soap now, I'm sure he'll like bar shampoo.

I hope this long ramble helps anyone on the fence or still doing research into bar shampoo!

I wanted to love this bar shampoo because it does not use plastic and it will be easy to travel with. The bar is not as wide as the box and it is in a tear shape so it's easy to hold. I did not like the smell-I tend to be sensitive to smells. The bar feels very solid in your hand. I thought it would lather up better in my hand. I wet my hair in the shower and applied it to the roots of my hair and worked it outward. It required that I add additional water to my hair to lather up whereas bottled shampoo I would not have to do that. The smell was challenging for me. I rinsed my hair and did not use conditioner (I typically do use conditioner). It was not easy to comb through my hair. When my hair dried, it did look pretty good and the smell was very mild. The next day I repeated everything but this time I used my normal conditioner. My hair was easier to comb through and softer. I would bring this on vacation because it is easy to pack but I'm not sure that I would use it on a regular basis because I really don't like the smell when shampooing. I was really hoping that I wouldn't need conditioner.

I know that's a pretty dramatic statement but its true. I have thick, fine, oily hair. I've never been able to find a shampoo that works for my hair. They would either dry out my hair or not fully clean it. Either way, I would always wake up with oily hair. Even though I washed my hair before bed. I've tried everything I can find for oily hair and nothing worked.

I got into shampoo bars a few months ago and I like them. I like not having to deal with another plastic bottle in my shower. I like that I can use just enough product. I like how easy it is to travel with it. I've been Using different brands. I decided to try this one a go. I loved the smell. The bar is also very dense so I feel it will last a long time. I've had other bars fall apart. It also lathers well.

My hair is clean but not dry. The ends of my hair are not dried out. My hair has body. All in all I'm really happy. I'm going to continue to use this bar in the future.
