Love this

My husband loves this. He said 2 swipes is enough for a nice lather (he has short hair.) He is happy about having this solid shampoo for travel. His scalp is dry, coarse and curly.

AMAZING! Leaves hair soft, shiny and truly hydrated!

If you're like me and new to the idea of shampoo and conditioner bars, I highly recommend the switch! I just recently decided to try them and after a little research, I decided to go with Ethique where I chose this bar shampoo and its matching conditioner because of the fact it doesn't contain coconut oil (a huge factor for me because I'm allergic to coconut oil, though not it's derivatives). My hair is very fine and my scalp is very sensitive, but this product leaves my hair hydrated, weightless and. I also find that it leaves my hair silky and shiny. The smell is also a sweet candy-like smell that I very much enjoy and the shampoo lathers very well after only a few swipes on wet hair. The conditioner takes a little time to apply and doesn't have an immediate effect, but after leaving it on for a few minutes, my hair is left incredibly soft and tangle free while rinsing. All in all, I am absolutely in love with this product and plan to be a loyal customer so long as its not discontinued.

Love it

I tried pairing this shampoo with the curl defining conditioner and was really happy with the result. Can definitely tell a difference, even after one use; it improved the dryness, made my hair softer and shinier. The shape of the bar fits well in my hand and on my scalp.

The bar is very big (which is great in the sense that it will last a long time) but for travel purposes I would love a mini size.

Does its job, but smelly and bad for travel

I used to use Mintasy shampoo from Ethique. This new shampoo bar leaves my hair in just as good of condition, and doesn't set off my allergies, which is great. It also doesn't dissolve quite as readily as Mintasy, which is a good thing. That means less drying time before I pack, and getting to actually use more of the product.

However, the sickly-sweet scent is very off-putting, and the new shape makes this shampoo *much* more difficult to travel with. I used to be able to fit one of the little trapezoidal face washes, a half of a conditioner bar, and a half of a shampoo bar in a small travel case. The new bars don't even fit in Ethique's own travel cases! The colors of shampoo and conditioner are so similar that, once cut down for travel, they become hard to tell apart. The crescent and wedge shapes are so similar that once cut down for travel, they are indistinguishable.

Overall, this feels like a big down-grade from my old Ethique products.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful review. We're really glad to hear the Hydrating Shampoo worked well for your hair and allergies—and that it’s holding up better than previous bars when it comes to drying time and usage.

This bar isn’t a direct replacement for Mintasy, but it was developed with a similar goal in mind: long-lasting moisture and softness for dry hair. We understand the scent might not be everyone’s cup of tea, and we’ve passed that feedback straight to our product team.

We also appreciate your insights on shape and travel—particularly around colour similarities and compact storage. Those real-world details help us design better, and we’re currently working on updated accessories to better suit the new bar formats. 💚
