Why Zero Waste Shampoo?
Every year billions of plastic shampoo bottles are sent straight to landfill where they will sit for millions of years or will get swept into our oceans, polluting the environment and animal habitats.
We are so used to seeing our shampoo come in liquid form, packaged in a plastic bottle, but it doesn’t have to continue that way. Solid shampoo bars have become extremely popular in recent years. Many come in recyclable or zero-waste packaging, cutting out the need for plastic shampoo bottles.
There are plenty of ‘environmentally friendly shampoos’ on the market that use unsustainable ingredients such as palm oil, SLSs, and other sulfates. I’d say it’s always best to read the ingredients list so you can find true zero waste shampoos.
To help you with making the switch to zero waste shampoo, here are 10 Zero Waste Shampoo For All Hair Types.
