About
Simple, effective hair care—no plastic, no science degree required.
We started BarHead with a simple goal: to make shampoo that works—without the plastic bottles, long ingredient lists, or mystery chemicals. What began as a kitchen experiment turned into a mission. And here we are.
Our bars are handmade in small batches using traditional methods and time-tested ingredients—like rhassoul clay, yucca root, and shikakai. These aren’t new discoveries. They’re ancient plant powders and minerals that have been trusted for generations to clean, nourish, and protect hair. We just brought them back.
No foaming agents. No synthetic fillers. No sciency stuff.
Just plants, oils, and minerals that get the job done.
What makes BarHead different?
We believe the best products are the ones that don’t need explaining. Our bars speak for themselves—satisfying lather, subtle scent, and the kind of clean that doesn’t strip your hair dry.
We’re not chasing trends or miracle claims. We’re building a product people actually want to keep using.
Where’s the conditioner?
You might be wondering where the conditioner is.
Here’s the thing: we don’t ruin your hair, so we don’t have to fix it.
Most shampoos clean by using harsh surfactants that strip your scalp, leaving your hair squeaky and dry—so you have to follow up with conditioner. We use gentle, naturally conditioning ingredients from the start. Ingredients like coconut oil, yucca root, and rhassoul clay help cleanse without stripping. So your hair feels clean, soft, and balanced—all in one bar.
Of course, everyone’s hair is different. If you have extra-dry or textured hair, you can still follow with your favorite conditioner or natural oil. But you might find you don’t need nearly as much as you used to.
Good for your hair. Better for the planet.
Each bar replaces two full bottles of shampoo. That’s less waste, less clutter, and more intention in your daily routine. From our ingredients to our packaging, we make choices that respect the earth—and still deliver real results.
Where we’re going
We’re keeping it small for now. Testing, learning, and building community. But we’ve got big dreams. New scents. New brews. And maybe one day, your favorite bar will be on the shelf at your local co-op—or dropped in your mailbox right when you need a refill.
Thanks for being here early. You’re part of something that’s just getting started.
BarHead. Back to the bar.
