The Many Benefits of Detergent-Free Shampoo Bars from Dr. Schaber’s Skin Essentials

Dr. Schaber’s Detergent-Free Shampoo Bar: It’s Better For Your Hair AND It’s Travel-Friendly!

The ingredients on a bottle of shampoo can be daunting…here is an example of the “un-natural” ingredients in Aveno “Active Naturals” Shampoo:

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Dimethicone, Sodium Cumenefulfonate, Cocamide MEA, Cetyl Alcohol, Acrylates Copolymer…plus several more that are equally un-natural.

Compare that to the 8 natural ingredients that go into Dr. Schaber’s Shampoo Bar: Coconut Oil, Castor Oil, Palm Oil, Sunflower Oil, Jojoba Oil, and Argan Oil, Cocoa Butter, Cruelty-Free Tussah Silk.

You may wonder if these 6 oils give the shampoo bar an oily consistency…the answer is NO, because the oils are saponified with lye to make the soapy molecules known as fatty acid salts. This is the same process used for centuries to produce hand-crafted soaps. The lye is fully consumed in the process, the result being a sulfate-free and detergent-free product that cleans your hair in a safe and gentle way.

So, why is it beneficial to use a detergent-free shampoo on your hair? The answer lies in the fact that sulfate-detergents open the hair’s cuticle, stripping out color and causing split-ends. Sulfate-free shampoo bars provide effective cleansing of the hair and scalp without the harsh effects on hair.

With the addition of Tussah Silk and Argan Oil, you get the same nourishing, moisturizing and conditioning effects without the synthetic polymers found in liquid shampoo.

A natural shampoo bar also provides an environmental benefit by eliminating the need for a plastic container. Plus, it is easier to travel with a shampoo bar than a bottle of liquid shampoo, and shampoo bars typically lasts longer than a bottle of shampoo.

If you are looking for the perfect substitute for that liquid detergent called shampoo, consider purchasing an all-natural detergent-free shampoo bar from Dr. Schaber’s Skin Essentials, made with a luxurious blend of saponified oils and butters that are gentle on your hair and scalp.
