Our three favourite eco friendly hair shampoos (that smell amazing!)

Ever tried a shampoo bar? We’re big fans at Pankhurst & Deane, and here are three reasons why (and some of our favourites to get you started)…

1. They replace single-use plastic bottles and are free from drying preservatives and harsh sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), so they are much kinder to your hair.

2. They lather and rinse like normal shamppoos and your bar should last weeks longer than your usual bottle.

3. With so many lovely products out there to choose from, it’s a great way to do your bit for the planet - and your hair!

In place of chemicals, shampoo soap bars are full of nourishing oils and butters, like Funky Soap’s Babassu Oil Shampoo, £5.50, which has super hydrating babassu oil with cocoa and shea butters to revive dull hair and boost shine.

If you are obsessed with scent, Bain & Savon’s Zesty Orange Shampoo Bar, £5.50, is made with orange, grapefruit and lemongrass oil. Divine!

And we can’t get enough of Lush’s natural lemon Shampoo Bar, £7.50, which smells like holiday.

Shiny hair isn’t just down to luck. If you want that glossy look then there are a few things you can do, including investing in some of our favourite shine boosting products, below.

Rinsing your hair with cold water after a shower can help to close the hair follicles and boost the shine factor. Using a clarifying shampoo weekly can remove build-up and regular deep conditioning treatments, hair oils and masks can protect from heat and sun damage.

Eating a healthy, balanced diet rich in keratin, like nuts and fish, and Omega-3 fatty acids can help hair growth and promote shine, too.

Fix dry hair with these stylist-approved products

If you’re never used hair oils, they are a really inexpensive way to add moisture and shine while strengthening the follicles to encourage growth.

They can also help repair dry, damaged hair, split ends and even dandruff. Here’s the main benefits of using hair oils:

Moisturising: Hair oils work by penetraing the hair shaft, giving a deep hit of hydrating and helping to repair dry and damaged hair. They also help to keep the mositure in, keeping your hair feeling extra soft.

Strengthening: Hair oils also strengthen the hair shaft, and this helps to make it less likely to suffer from breakage and split ends. Amazingly, they can even help reduce hair loss, promoting healthier looking, thicker hair. You’re basically giving your hair a good old drink with hair oils, and this can reduce friction when styling so hair appears smooth and glossy.

Promotes shine: Hair oils add shine and life to lacklustre, dry hair. They can make your hair texture feel softer, too.

Protection: Hair oils provide a protective barrier around the hair shaft, helping it stay protected from environmental damage like pollution, central heating and UV rays, as well as styling tools.
