Shampoo bars! You either love them, hate them or wait till your hair gets used to them! Shampoo bars are economical and  eco-friendly. Since you can use it to the last bit, there is no wastage. Most of the shampoo bars come in recycled packaging and they don’t need any containers. That helps to NOT cause a landfill. And if you want to know why I recommend shampoo bars, read my last post.

In this post I am listing some of the best shampoo bars in India. As with most compilation posts, I do plan to update this as and when I discover products. I have not used a few of the shampoo bars that have been mentioned in the post.

10 Best Shampoo Bars in India

Shampoo bars is not just another trend that is doing the rounds, it has been there and its now that people are opting for it. A few beauty brands are certainly environmentally -friendly and with the need to do away with plastic and glass, shampoo bars were a logical step.

When you make that shift from the liquid shampoo to the solid shampoo, it takes some time to get used to the changes, but the end result is the same; squeaky clean hair! Here is my list of some of the best shampoo bars in India.

Satliva

This is one of the shampoo bars that I feel is complete value for money. It lasts long! Really long. It has a very light fragrance and I love the volume it gives to my hair. Initially it made my hair a bit dry, but consistent usage has made it more manageable. I oil my hair at least 4 times a week and this shampoo bar gets rid of the oil in one wash. Leaves your scalp squeaky clean too. It works up a rich lather that also acts like a conditioner for my hair type. I let the lather stay for 2 minutes before I wash off my hair. Leaves a slightly tamer mane!  Priced at INR 379, you can buy this from Amazon India. Click here to buy.

Sheetal, the owner of Earthy Sapo, is one patient person! She’ll speak to you at length about your hair ans skin issues and recommend products to you accordingly. I have been using the utterly fabulous shikakai and multani shampoo bar. It is pure love for your tresses! Yes! Since my scalp tends to get a tad oily, I was recommended that shampoo for my hair. She makes all the products and each of them is 100% chemical free.  Priced at INR 185 each, Earthy Sapo shampoo bars come in two variants. For dry hair and oily hair. Both these variants can bought on Amazon India.

Shampoo bars from Soap Square

Soap Square believes in zero wastage and that’s one of the reasons they launched their shampoo bars. They have 4 variants which I’ll talk about in the post. The best way to use a shampoo your hair using a shampoo bar is to wet your hair in the shower and work up a lather by rubbing the soap between your palms and applying this lather on your hair. Massage your scalp and work up the lather from the roots to the tips and wash off with tepid water. If you have oiled your hair, you may need to shampoo your hair at least twice to get out the built up residue in your hair and scalp.

Soulflower says their shampoo bars are a safe for your hair. All thier soaps and shampoo bars are 100 percent pure, natural, vegan, handmade and cold processed. Their products are free from SLS, chemicals, synthetic colour or fragrance. Most of the shampoo bars are safe to use all around the year. I find most of their soaps pretty bulky. If you do end up buying this, ensure that you cut it in 2-3 pieces and use. Priced at INR 375 and above, you can buy this from Amazon India. Click here to buy.

Vedic Saga Shampoo Bars

Affordable and value for money too. I picked up a soap and shampoo bars and they came packed in these cotton drawstring bags that are reusable. The only issue, none of the products are labelled so I had no clue which one is the soap and which one is the shampoo bar! I have started using their soap and its really very mild on the skin and I am hoping that the shampoo bar is gentle too! Priced at INR 95 onwards for a single shampoo bar, they also have shampoo and soap packs that you can explore on Amazon India.
