Lavera, an eco-brand from Hannover (Germany)
Yves Rocher is still doing business in Russia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yves_Rocher#Yves_Rocher_in_Russian_market
And they participated in fabricating the case against Navalny which eventually killed him.
and they’re quite involved in israel too
(to be clear: so are P&G and unilever, who own H&S, pantene and dove)
Yves Rocher still sales in Russia. Shame on them.
AFAIK they’re at least partially owned by Nestle, so their products are a definite no-no.
Dove is from Unilever which is British.
Head and Shoulders and Pantene are Procter & Gamble Which is from USA.
Pantene was originally from Switzerland. So I wasn’t aware it’s American now. Since 1985. 🫣TIL Dove (and Unilever) are based in the UK!!
Yeah, Unilever is quite some British people’s national prides. It started as a Dutch/British joint company, and it’s still quite some Dutch people’s national pride.
I don’t think they’re that good a company to feel nationalism for but there are worse companies (Nestlé for one)
Solid shampoo here,everyone should switch imo
Any solid anti dandruff shampoo?
After a lifetime of dealing with dandruff, I’ve recently discovered the best anti-dandruff shampoo in the world, hands down: hot water.
No shampoo at all. Just scrubbing with hot water every two-three days. After about a month or two the scalp stops overcompensating for the degreasing effect of shampoos and calms down. The first month will be pretty itchy and dandruffy though. Tapering out shampoo use gradually and some spray-on/drip-on anti-seboreic dermatitis lotion can keep things under control until the scalp normalizes.
I think this was the video that I first got the idea from:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmDBYsRJN7A
Just pour it out in a bowl an keep it in the freezer.
Ebay my friend
are you telling me to search eBay for shampoo or is there a brand of shampoo called ebay because if it is the latter I can not find it behind all the links for people on ebay selling shampoo.
Any particular recommendations?
Idk I buy a generic one at the supermarket, I’ve seen there’s plenty of choice on ebay tho
Have you happened to see any with no or truly mild perfume? I’ve been looking on and off through the years without finding any
Nope,I never considered the smell an issue so I don’t chose based on that criteria.
Understandable, thanks
I like Slovak brand Soaphoria. They’re focused on making ecological and natural products. Especially their solid shampoos are great (it’s also worth noting, that they’re only packaged in a paper box, not in a big plastic bottle).
Other brand that I like (even though it’s not really a hair-shampoo brand) is Floris London. They only have a single shampoo, but I have very good results out of that. But this one is a bit on the pricier side compared to Soaphoria.
I’ve not used liquid shampoo for about 3 years now.
I only use solid shampoo, which currently is the one from Fer à Cheval.
Stylé. Je connaisais pas mais ça à l’air bien plus écolo. Je vais acheter pour tenter.
En tout cas, j’en suis très content :)
This?
How do you use it, though? Like a soap bar?
Wait, am I reading correctly that it has no perfume?
The shampoo does have a small scent:
Its sensory formula, with the delicious, natural scent of oat milk and its creamy foam, is just as effective as a liquid shampoo.
Aah okay! Thanks!
Do you have long hair? For some reason I imagine it would be difficult to get it on without missing a spot (I have never tried this before)
I have long hair and I use similarly looking solid shampoo. What I do is, that I rub it in both hands and it foams quite quickly and heavilly. Then when I have both hands full of foamy soap, I rub it in hair and wash them similarly to how I would with a liquid shampoo. Maybe it sounds weird, but it’s pretty quick and effortless. But it’s very dependent on how good the soap foams. If you have a solid shampoo that doesn’t foam well, you would need to repeat this procedure multiple times and could be annoying.
I don’t have long hair, but I find that it behaves like a liquid shampoo. But I can’t say how it would exactly work on long hair.
that’s interesting, thanks for sharing!
Yeah same I’ve been on solid shampoo for like 8 years and it’s great, and no more plastic waste.
I love polish brand Ziaja, but I will be Testing a Shampoo form Yves Rocher which I got for free 🤭
I love the own brands form Rossmann (German but starting to expand) and for shampoo specifically have mostly switched to solid bars. Gels only for travel 😉
I use Valquer because:
- it stopped my dandruff
- can buy in big quantities
Garnier, L’Oreal, Rituals
Shower gel: Original Source. We love the mint one in our household and have loved it for at least ten years. The brand is British and vegan too, for those who care. They have a lot of fun and wacky variants, but the mint one is still the best one.
For hair I will probably return to Elvital (L’Oreal Paris) when my last Herbal Essence bottle is empty.
As for face creams and other stuff like that, I use Neutral which is a Danish brand that is known for their neutral products that are suitable for people with allergies or people like me who would like to put less toxic shit on our skin.
I’m OOTL, what’s wrong with H&S? (Besides not being European)
Arbre vert has been treating my hair pretty well
I miss the cheap big gallon jugs of egg cream shampoo you could buy in the 70’s. /s
