How are shampoo bars made?

Shampoo soap bars are a great alternative to liquid shampoo.

Friendly Soap’s shampoo bars are made using natural ingredients and are handmade, which means they are cruelty-free.

Our shampoo bars are made using the cold press method. This means that the castor oils and shea butters used in the recipe are not melted but are mixed together and then poured into a mold.

Castor oil has been used for thousands of years on hair, while shea butter has a tendency to leave a residue in the hair which helps to reduce frizz. These ingredients help to moisturise the hair and scalp while cleansing them at the same time.

The mixture is allowed to cool and harden, which takes several hours. Once it is set, the bar can be cut into individual servings.

Many people prefer shampoo soap bars because they are free of harsh chemicals.
