What is a shampoo bar?

Shampoo bars, simply, are like regular shampoo for your hair but in a solid "bar of soap" form. They are not detergent or hand soap, but shampoo. You might think of them as, more-or-less, like your regular bottled shampoo with all the unnecessary water removed. Unlike most commercial soaps and liquid shampoos, the ingredients available in solid shampoo are of much greater variety and possibly of greater benefit to the user.


Why use one?

It is convenient, less messy than liquid shampoos to store, TSA-safe for carry-on luggage.


Convenience

There is nothing to spill and no big bottle to take up room in the shower. Shampoo bars are also very convenient for travel. Since they are a solid, shampoo bars can be taken in carry on luggage without restriction. Further, there's no possibility of something leaking.


Economy

While shampoo bars are available at different price points, shampoo bars will last up to two or three months given careful use and storage. In addition, you are not paying for all the water found in every liquid shampoo. Many find that after a period of adjustment (see below) they are using hair conditioner less frequently, if at all. Thus, there is additional savings and one less product to keep in stock.


How to use and store your shampoo bar

Use

Wet your hair as you normally would then rub the shampoo bar through your hair a few times. Give the bar a quick rinse if you wish, and put it away. Then, message/lather your hair as you normally would. Rinse your hair thoroughly. You can let the lather sit on your hair for a while if you wish, or rinse immediately. A word of warning: lather in your eyes will sting at least as much (and possibly more) than commercial products, depending on exact formulation. In the event of a problem, flush your eyes with clean water.

Shampoo tips:

1. During hair wash, please massage scalp gently with fingernails, try to remove the dust and dirt in the hair root, so that the natural nutrition from the shampoo can be more readily absorbed.
2. As the shampoo does not contain chemical agent, it will promote hair growth.
3. Please massage scalp for 2-3 minutes.
** cleaning the scalp is very important, this is to ensure that the root can breathe properly and prevent hair loss. When the scalp is clean, nutrition is easier to absorb.

After cleaning, drying hair naturally is recommended, if you want to use hair dryer, please do not use the highest temperature, as it will damage the protein in the hair.
Dry hair gently with a dry towel, do not rub vigorously.

(Tips: Do not sleep with wet hair as it may cause headache.)

Storage

For the shampoo bar to last a maximum amount of time, it needs to be kept dry. Ideally, this means keeping it out of the shower and in the type of soap dish which will allow excess water to drain. Allowing the bar to air dry fully between uses is also helpful. Practically speaking, this is inconvenient and not entirely necessary. As long as the bar is allowed to air dry as much as possible between uses, is kept from sitting in water, and is kept out of the spray from the shower or faucet, it should last several months.


Adjustment period

Most people find their hair going through a period of adjustment when first switching to shampoo bars. During this time, which may last a couple of weeks (or until the next haircut), the hair may feel dry, crunchy, brittle, or just not at its best. It may feel as if there is a coating or buildup on your hair. Those who use heavy styling products and/or have long hair may notice this effect (which will subside over time) more than those who use minimal styling products or who have short hair. This effect is caused by styling product. Shampoo bars also do not contain silicone-based chemicals that smooth the hair. Hard water may produce a similar build-up experience. During the adjustment period it is possible to ease the transition:

Vinegar Rinse

To ease the transition, it can also be helpful to perform a "vinegar rinse" after every shampooing, or at least every couple of days. Recipes can be found around the web, but all-in-all, they consist of rinsing your hair with plain vinegar after rinsing out the shampoo. The vinegar is allowed to sit in the hair for a short while and it is then rinsed out with plain water. The vinegar smell evaporates quickly and should not be of concern. The idea behind this is that the acidity of the vinegar (which is acetic acid and water) cuts through the styling product or hard water build up which may remain on your hair. If you regularly use strong styling products (such as "wet look" gel or hair spray), you may find it beneficial to do a vinegar rinse on a regular basis even after the adjustment period. Many styling products are not easily water soluble and so may present something of a challenge for non-SLS/SLES shampoos. In this case, performing a vinegar rinse once a week or every few days, depending on need, is usually sufficient. This will also be useful in the case of having hard water. Others may find a vinegar rinse to be unnecssary.

Final Rinse

To help smooth the hair, try a thorough final rinse with cold water. Or you may wish to continue to use your regular conditioner or a conditioner bar (see below). Alternatively, a few drops of jojoba oil, almond oil, coconut oil, or vitamin E (available at most health-type stores and natural groceries) can be massaged into the hair.

The Chinese Perspective :

As far back as ancient chinese civilisation, ginger is known as the single ingredient found in nature which can promote hair growth. 

As written by the Great Doctor 李时珍 in his medical encycopedia 《本草纲目》:

‘姜’ 性味辛，微温，祛风祛湿，活血通气。

Translated: 'Ginger', a temperate ingredient with a spicy taste, can warm the body, decrease dampness and improve inner blood circulation.


The Western Perspective :

Western studies done on ginger have given substance to the Chinese claim.
Clinical research has found that the main active ingredient inside ginger promotes blood circulation, scalp metabolism and activate hair follicle tissue. This can effectively prevent hair loss, strengthen hair roots and stimulate the cells to grow new hair.


The scientific evidences of ginger:

1. Prevents Hair Loss

A fresh ginger root contains magnesium, potassium, phosphorous, and vitamins that provide your hair follicles with nourishment, making them strong and preventing hair loss

2. Controls Dandruff

Dandruff and hair loss often go hand-in-hand. This happens because the dead skin cells clog your follicles, leading to hair fall. Ginger has potent antimicrobial properties that help control dandruff and, in turn, curbs hair loss

3. Tackles Dryness

Dryness causes hair to become brittle, and this leads to breakage. Ginger acts as a natural conditioner, tackling dryness by restoring moisture to your hair

4. Improves Blood Flow

Ginger’s active ingredients, gingerol, helps relax blood vessels and thereby improves the circulation of blood. This allows for the improved nourishment of hair follicles, ensuring faster hair growth

5. Nourishes Hair With Fatty Acids

Ginger also contains chains of fatty acids such as linoleic acid which nourish your hair, keeping it healthy and strong
