pH Balanced Shampoo Bars

Our pH balanced bars (the “mods”) are specialists, results obsessed, a wild fusion of nature and science. These hair care mods are 100% aligned with our raw, rare and real ethos; nothing harsh, nothing toxic, nothing that’s going to make a dolphin cry. Their ingredients sound a little more exotic but they’re all derived from plants, designed to work even in hard water, with the hardest-to-please hair. They bust the transition period between bottle and bar to leave your locks clean, shiny and fabulous from the very first wash – a shampoo bar breakthrough. Bonus cool thing: they’re hexagonal.

FAQ's

What’s the difference between our pH balanced and traditional shampoo bars, you ask?

So, should you go mod or trad?

Look, we’re totally enamoured with our new pH balanced bars and encourage everyone to try them at least once (because once is all you need to fall head over lashes). But if you’re a long term customer and love our classic bars bigtime, why fix something that ain’t broke?

Will a shampoo bar work for my hair type?

Yes, Beauty and the Bees shampoo bars are formulated to work for all hair types, whether you have fine, thick, curly, or straight hair.

Do you have something for psoriasis/ eczema?

Our products are not medicated. However, we have many customers who use our products successfully without aggravating their psoriasis, eczema, contact dermatitis. If you have soft water, we recommend the Hemp Seed Shampoo as it's extra gentle (uncoloured, unscented). You may like to check out the fragrance-free products here

Can I use a shampoo bar on colour-treated hair?

Yes, these bars are pH balanced, extremely gentle and moisturising, and do not strip the colour.

Are shampoo bars more expensive than liquid shampoo?

Not at all! Beauty and the Bees shampoo bar can replace 3-4 bottles of liquid shampoo. They are also more concentrated than liquid shampoo, so a little goes a long way.

How do I store a shampoo bar to make it last longer?

After each use, store your shampoo bar in a dry place and allow it to air dry. To prolong the life of your shampoo bar, you can also store it in a soap dish

Are shampoo bars as effective at cleaning my hair as liquid shampoo?

Yes, Beauty and the Bees shampoo bars are just as effective at cleaning your hair as liquid shampoo. They are also free of harsh chemicals that can strip your hair of its natural oils, leaving it healthy and nourished.

Can I buy this in stores around Australia?

We have a store in Salamanca Place in Hobart but concentrate online (We've been online for 30 years now!) as the high quality and freshness of our products don’t lend themselves to mass distribution
