Hair products are no exception to this eco-friendly initiative. More specifically, one trend has stood out:that of solid shampoos . Practical, ecological and effective, solid shampoos are the new flagship products of ethical and organic French cosmetics .
Ecology and environmental protection is everyone's business. organic and natural cosmetics follow this trend closely. The players in this field strive to make their products as eco-responsible as possible. Abolition of over-packaging, adoption of natural ingredients if possible biosourced, partnership with ethical associations… a multitude of options are available to these stakeholders in responsible cosmetology .
From these different eco-responsible approaches, a revolutionary fashion has emerged:that of solid and natural cosmetics. Cold saponified organic body care, solid natural hair products, all stem from the same precept:that of the solidification of care.

Hair care obviously follows this trend of solid organic cosmetics. Solid shampoos are gradually replacing those in plastic bottles in bathrooms. In addition to their ecological side, they are also very economical . On average, solid shampoos hold up to more than 80 washes , i.e. 3 times more than those in the bottle.
In addition to this cost-effective side in terms of purchase and duration, natural solid shampoos are at least as effective as conventional shampoos.
They foam little, a characteristic due to less surfactant in their formulation. The surfactant is the cleaning agent generally present in soapy care. One of the properties of this agent is that it is an emulsifier:source of foam from industrialized shampoos. Although cleaning and effective, some surfactants, used by manufacturers, are unfortunately too aggressive. Solid shampoos have been designed with non-aggressive surfactants , they better preserve the skin and the hair fiber while guaranteeing optimal cleaning.
