How to make your shampoo bar last longer
(with a nifty DIY trick!)
In this article, we’ll share how to store your shampoo bar so that it lasts as long as possible.
One of the most common questions we get is:
How long does a shampoo bar last?
And while there is no black-and-white answer (we all have different lengths of hair!) the key to this is treating it well.
If you treat it well, it can last for over 90 washes.
And some of our customers have told us that their bars have lasted over a year!
Let’s take a look at how the shampoo bar compares against the shampoo bottle…
The average shampoo bottle lasts between 25-35 washes (if we use the standard tablespoon amount)
That means the average shampoo bar can last 3x longer as the average shampoo bottle!
And if you wash your hair every day... 90 washes = 3 months!
So how do we do this? How do we ensure our bars last as long as possible?
The answer is simple, it all comes down to the perfect storage.
Keeping your shampoo bar out of water is crucial… Regular containers just won’t cut it!
Below, we've shared a simple DIY Shampoo Bar Holder video - using items you can find lying around your house!
All you need is:
- A vessel: could be an old tin or jam jar lid
- Elastic bands or string
Just tie your elastic bands or string around your vessel - and voila, it's ready!
