Don't like plastic bottles but not a fan of shampoo bars either? Ethique Concentrates are our answer!

Gentle formulation
Coconut milk powder for extra moisture
Free from SLS & parabens
Soap-free, pH balanced
Safe for colour treated hair
Works with hard water
1. Pour entire contents of box into a heat-proof jug.
2. Add 300ml (10.14 fl.oz.) of just-boiled water and gently stir till with a fork until the powder has dissolved. The key word here is *gently*. Otherwise, you’ll get a whole lotta foam on your bench that you’ll then need to deal with.
3. Allow it to cool slightly, then pour the mixture into a bottle you already own and pop a label on it. Give it a few shakes while it’s cooling.
4. Once made, use your liquid shampoo within six months.
Massage into wet hair; starting at the roots and working down the ends. Apply a coin size amount to wet hair and scalp. Massage in well to create a creamy lather before working down ends. Rinse for bouncy, refreshed, healthy-looking hair.
Use any plastic or aluminum container – it’s best to choose something that is shatter-proof. Even better if it has a pump to make washing a little easier.

I love the conditioner concentrate! It is easy to make and use and works great on my looong and straight hair.

Smells good but kind of a pain
I love the idea of a concentrate but these little bars are hard to break up and they don’t dissolve super easily. I would stick with the bar.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback for our Gentle Shampoo Concentrate - though I'm sorry to hear you were having issues getting it to fully dissolve!
May I ask how you made this one up?
As a part of our product guarantee, I'd love to send you out our new and improved Gentle Shampoo Concentrate to try out or if you'd prefer to go back to a Bar, I'd be happy to send either out. If you're interested in this, can you please send us an email at hello@ethique.com alongside your delivery details and I can get this arranged for you. Alternatively, if you've purchased via our website, I can refund this for you instead 😊

Works as it should
This is my second bar of the Gentle Shampoo Concentrate. Works well, I add some water at the end to the bottle when it gets low and that stretches it so the bottle is empty for my next fill up. I find cutting the bars into much smaller pieces helps it to dissolve easier.

Really nice for scalp!
I have been using this for a week and my scalp hasn't felt itchy and dry, washing my hair every 2-3 days.
