Hello lovely BR members,
I'm seeking your advice please.
I'm on the hunt for the absolute best shampoo & conditioner bars you've used - specifically for coloured/damaged hair. I'm needing something for a really sensitive scalp, I'd prefer to support a small business rather than a chain product/store. I'm also wanting as natural as possible with minimum perfumes.
Asking alot, I know!
Can anyone help me on my hunt?
Much love xxx

I love using Ethique’s shampoo bars, they’re fantastic, work well and last for ages (especially when stored in one of their in-shower containers). The have all different types of shampoo bars and they do conditioner too, so have a look and see if one of them fits what you’re looking for. Here’s a link to their site.
Ethique is not sold in supermarkets. They only sold their products online and at selected stockists until about a year ago when Farmers and pharmacies started selling their range too, but if that’s not what you’re after, try Googling “Pure Peony” or “Dirty Hippie” shampoo bars. I haven’t used Pure Peony or Dirty Hippie, so can’t recommend them, but good luck in finding what you’re looking for.
I like Ethique too and I have colour treated hair. The Lush shampoo bars are a definite no for coloured hair. Ethique do a great sampler pack which has lasted me ages as I have short hair. These are also great for travel. Unfortunately I didn't realise that I had run out of shampoo until it was too late the other day and I had to resort to hotel shampoo.
If you click on “Gifts and Bundles” on Ethique’s site, it takes you to all their sample packs. Click here for a shortcut.
Jeymar make a 100% natural shampoo bar, I got one in a beauty advent calendar. They are a small NZ business. I haven’t tried mine, not sure if I will. It’s rosemary scented.
I was using the Ethique ones for ages but they weren’t cooperating with my long, fine, dyed hair that gets washed daily so I switched back

@worldofsooziewong, the samples also last me 3-4 weeks. I bought a full sized bar of St Clements shampoo last year and started using it in September. I wash my hair every second night, and I still have half a bar left 5 months later! They definitely do last much longer than a bottle of liquid shampoo, and I find they work better, too.
Sorry silvene someone beat you to it! I had a look on their site though and the small size I have is only $4.50, and they have other options too.

Only in NZ would ppl think of a company like Ethique as ‘big business’ .
theyre a start-up who have achieved a bit of success because they formulate, market and interact extremely well..... but they’re not a big business. I’d liken them to a craft brewery or boutique coffee roasters etc.... small, well cared for, with a human touch and quality product
I religiously buy my holy grail Cleanser from them and l I love that I can buy it in stores now - makes the whole thing easier, I don’t love online shopping

I highly recommend Wellington Apothecary shampoo bars. I have very sensitive scalp, and their Shampoo Smoothie worked so well that I will certainly be repurchasing. It lasted a super long time. The only down side is that although it is great on my scalp, it does strip the hair quite a bit, so might not work on coloured hair.
