You’ve finally made the choice to go natural with your haircare but you’re still unsure what this will mean for you. So we thought we’d pull together all of the information we have on making the transition to natural haircare.
In short, saponification is defined byMerriam-Websteras‘the act, process, or result of making soap: conversion into soap’.In order to achieve a solid bar of soap, you will need to mix fats and oils with a sodium or potassium hydroxide.
The other incredibly important thing to consider is that shampoo/soap bars thatdo notcontain sodium hydroxide/caustic soda/lye are not natural. These are what are referred to assyndetbars, we’ve written extensively about the difference between natural and syndet barshere.Moreover, the word syndet is derived from the wordssyntheticanddetergent.
In short, soap-based are made from natural oils whereas syndet based bars are basically solidified liquid shampoo. They each serve different purposes and we're going to give you the low down on how to find the best shampoo bar for you.

We love this question because the simple answer is no. But we want to talk to you about why and what makes Solibar so different.
The biggest difference between Solibar and other shampoo options is the lack of sulphates or parabens. Without sulphates, there is going to be no stripping of your natural sebum. Traditional shampoo is designed to strip your hair of moisture, dirt and oil and hence requiring a conditioner to return the moisture post-shampoo.
I have been using purple shampoo for a while and I’ll admit I was sceptical at the price and reliability of the Solibar product. I am now on my second order, and I find Solibar to be very good value for money compared to the store bought similar product and it simply works much better. I used to need to wash my hair almost every day but after a week of Solibar I now wash my hair once a week. So far I’m just onto my second bar and I started using it 8 months ago. I put in my second order which was filled 40 days ago and I’m no where near opening that package. It just lasts for ages. I love the results it gives every time and once I thought it expensive I now think it’s cheap. I recommend this product to all I speak to about hair care. Just keep the bar dry and it just keeps on giving you great results. I use the conditioner as well. Great product and I’m never changing.
I can’t believe how long my shampoo bar lasts. My first order was 7 months ago and I haven’t finished the second bar or the conditioner yet. It leaves my hair soft and shiny. It’s fabulous. Just ordered and received my second order but I don’t think I’ll open it till way after Xmas. Great value for money and it works just the way you want it to.
