Specialty Bars

A specialty bar is formulated for a specific situation rather than for daily use. You use it like your regular Shampoo Bar, alternating with your usual variant if you like.

Restore & Strength contains castor oil and targets an irritated scalp and weakened hair. Protect & Shine protects your hair before and during exposure to sun, sea and chlorine. Hydrate & Repair is meant for recovery after that exposure, with extra hydration for dry and damaged hair.

Wet both your hair and the bar thoroughly with warm water: properly soaked, not just damp. Rub the bar directly over your wet hair and scalp for five to ten seconds, put it aside and massage with your fingertips. That is where the lather forms. Then rinse thoroughly.

With very short hair you can also lather the bar between your hands first and apply only the lather. If you have just switched from shampoo in a bottle, feel free to lather twice during the first few washes: the first time removes silicone residue, the second time really cleanses.

Find the bar hard to hold? It lathers more easily in an organza bag or an old pair of tights. View the soap bags and soap dishes.

Store your bar in a dry spot that is not too warm and out of the stream of water: on a soap dish that can drain or in a soap bag. You will find both among our accessories. A bar left sitting in a puddle of water goes soft and wears out much faster.

Choose based on what your hair needs, not on fragrance. The bars are grouped into Daily & Mild, Fresh & Clean, Volume & Bounce, Hydration & Nourishment, Repair & Strength and Shine & Protection.

If you have no specific needs and your hair is in balance, Daily & Mild is the logical choice: it contains no extra proteins aimed at one particular hair type. If in doubt, a Trial Pack is the cheapest way to find out.
