What are ayurvedic powders, and why are they used for hair care?
Ayurvedic powders are herbs, plants, and fruits that have been dried and finely ground into powders. These powders have a rich history rooted in Indian Ayurvedic medicine, going back many centuries.
Indian men and women have long cherished the benefits of Ayurvedic powders for their natural hair care routines, resulting in the secret to hair that’s not only beautiful but also resilient.
How is a solid shampoo bar different from a liquid shampoo?
Shampoo bars provide all the benefits of liquid shampoo but in a convenient, eco-friendly solid form. Unlike liquid shampoos, which often contain detergents and come in plastic packaging, solid shampoo bars are typically crafted from gentle, plant-based cleansers and packaged in minimal, recyclable materials. Their dry and concentrated formula means they don’t require preservatives.
They are also compact and lightweight, making them an ideal choice for travel. Shampoo bars are approved for carry-on luggage and eliminate the risk of spills, making them a hassle-free option.
What is the difference between a shampoo bar and a bar of soap?
Our hair shampoo bar is not your typical soap bar! While traditional soap bars are crafted from fats and oils, our shampoo bar is a syndet. This means it undergoes a distinct manufacturing process using a surfactant as its base.
Apart from the ingredient variation, an important difference between soap and syndet lies in their pH levels. Soap is naturally alkaline with a higher pH (typically around 9-10). Unfortunately, this can disrupt the natural pH balance of your skin and hair, leading to dryness and potential irritation.
On the other hand, syndet cleansers, including our hair shampoo bar, are formulated to maintain a more neutral or slightly acidic pH level (closer to the skin’s natural pH of approximately 5.5). This delicate pH balance helps preserve the skin and hair’s natural protective barrier, preventing excessive dryness and irritation.
Is this bar shampoo safe for colour-treated hair?
Yes, our shampoo bars are safe for colour-treated hair. Its gentle, natural ingredients cleanse without stripping colour, maintaining your hair’s vibrant look.
Can the solid shampoo bar be safely used during pregnancy?
Absolutely! Our bar shampoo is completely safe for use during pregnancy. As with any new products, it’s always advisable to consult with your healthcare provider.
