How it does good
Making over the beauty industry for the better
Since plastic packaging came to prominence, we’ve made, used, and disposed of more than 8.3 billion tons of the stuff. Over 90 percent has gone unrecycled, often ending up in landfills, oceans, and animals’ bellies. One of the main culprits? The beauty industry. And then HiBAR came along. Developed by 4 friends with a passion for great smells, healthy hair, and, most importantly, plastic-free products, they've cut out plastic packaging entirely, modelling their haircare products on the bars of soap we’ve been using for years. Also free from sulfates, parabens, and silicones, and packed instead with plant-based ingredients, HiBAR is committed to leading by example with salon-quality, eco-friendly products, made with the earth in mind.
Instead of plastic, HiBAR’s shampoos and conditioners arrive in packaging that’s adorable and, even better, totally recyclable. It’s made with plant-based ink, so you can even compost it. They’ve also put thought into shipping and wholesale, with biodegradable, compostable, or recyclable packing and pallets, right down to tape and packing peanuts.

You’ll never find synthetic preservatives in HiBAR’s products. Instead, they use plant-based, often totally vegan, ingredients, with all-natural essential oils for scent. Their pigments are approved by Cosmos and Ecocert, the gold standard in natural cosmetics.

They’ve donated shampoos to victims of natural disasters, like the 2020 Oregon fires, and they’re financially supporting small businesses and social justice reform in Minnesota.

HiBAR
A few years back, four friends got talking one night and realized they’d all been working separately on the same project: getting rid of plastic in the bathroom. So with that in mind, they officially banded together to re-engineer how people wash and care for their hair. After working with a team of hair care professionals (and a lot of trial and error), HiBAR was born. Solid shampoos and conditioners that skip the need for plastic packaging. No plastic. Just beautiful hair.

United StatesLasts a LONG Time, Great Lather, Leaves Soft Hair
I'm so impressed with the Hive Bar. This is the first bar shampoo I've tried, and I had all of the same concerns everyone else does -- will the bar last as long as traditional shampoo or will I have to keep buying new bars was more often? Does it even clean your hair that well? I waited a while to post a review because I wanted to find the answers to these questions. I bought a shampoo bar and conditioner set in April 2021. I just finished with the bar and still have a while to go with the conditioner bar. I wash my hair about 3 times a week, and my husband would use the bar occasionally (maybe once or twice a week). I keep my bars on the window ledge in the shower, which doesn't receive any direct water. I replaced the shampoo with Hive's blue Moisturize shampoo bar. I found that the green Maintain bar lathered up much much better, and I prefer it to the blue Moisturize bar. With liquid shampoo, my routine was always to wash twice to get a good lather, but I never had to do that with the green Maintain bar. I was honestly surprised that it would be better than traditional shampoo in that way! It is true that the conditioner bar and shampoo bar are both green, but I never had trouble telling them apart because the conditioner bar is more "shiny" and the shampoo bar is more "matte". Plus, I just keep the shampoo on the left and the conditioner on the right, so it wasn't really difficult to keep them apart. I highly recommend the Hive bar (especially the green Maintain bar!)
United StatesExcellent
I'm so glad I gave this a try. I have "fussy" hair ( frizzy, oily scalp but dry hair) and wasn't sure how the shampoo and conditioner would work. It's lovely, my hair is clean and soft. I highly recommend both shampoo and conditioner.
United StatesNegative stars
This product is a no go from the design, actual lather was minimal, and more importantly, it’s very hard to tell difference between the shampoo and the conditioner. Would never purchase again, in fact, i have a hard time using what i have now…
United StatesGreat but could use a bulk option
Love the product but would like to be able to be able to buy several of them without them being individually wrapped (to save on paper). So maybe an option to buy several in one larger box?
