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.

About the Brand
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.

Make sure your hair is soaking wet, then apply conditioner directly, especially to the ends, massaging your scalp to remove dead skin and let moisture in. Want to soften the bar before use? Just run it under warm water.

United StatesLove it!
It works great, my hair is curly and the curls looked good and soft!
United StatesDifficult to use
I get the whole waste-not, want-not thing, but these products are hard to use. The shampoo takes a while to rub all over your head to get a lather. Just too strange for me. Expensive and not quite worth it.
Effective conditioning with no plastic!
I am working hard to reduce plastic, but it took a number of tries to find a conditioner bar that worked without leaving my hair either gooey or flyaway. HiBAR is a winner. It goes on easily and after rinsing it leaves my hair feeling clean, smooth, and easy to comb.
Does everything you would want from a conditioner
I love this conditioner. It controls frizz, leaves my fine, long, silver hair with tons of body and shine. And a little bit of product goes a long way. I highly recommend the HiBAR Volumize conditioner.
United StatesIssues
So far feel this conditioner bar leaves my hair extra greasy despite extra rinsing and minimal use. Not sure which ingredient doesn't agree with me, but almost instantly feel itchy hives on neck and back. I did like that I could find it at a store and not rely on ordering a shipment. Packaging and the lack of plastic is excellent. Sadly I need to find a different product as this is not the one for me.
