J·R·LIGGETT'S Original Shampoo Bar - Plant-Based Solid Shampoo, 3-Pack 3.5 oz, Sulfate-Free & Travel-Friendly

J.R.LIGGETT'S Original Shampoo Bar is a plant-based, sulfate-free solid hair cleanser that gently cleans, preserves color, and replaces liquid shampoo bottles.

Created from a 19th-century recipe and handmade on a small New Hampshire farm, this solid shampoo combines saponified olive, coconut, and castor oils with rose, lavender, and spearmint essential oils to deliver a mild, effective wash. The 3.5 oz bar is designed to foam, rinse cleanly, and leave hair feeling healthy without synthetic detergents, preservatives, or plastic packaging. Each 3.5 oz bar can replace a large portion of liquid shampoo, making it a low-waste choice for everyday routines.

How will this shampoo bar perform on sensitive or color-treated hair?

The formula avoids harsh sulfates and synthetic detergents, so it cleans without aggressively stripping natural oils. Because it uses simple saponified plant oils and gentle essential oils, it’s often recommended for those seeking a milder alternative to conventional shampoos. Color retention depends on hair type and dye; many users report soft, vibrant results.

• Free from sulfates, synthetic detergents, and preservatives
• Plant-based oils that cleanse yet preserve moisture
• Suitable for permed, colored, and curly hair types
• Light essential-oil scent that won’t overpower

What does a bar feel and lather like during use?

The bar produces a quick, creamy lather when rubbed between wet hands or directly across wet hair. It rinses without leaving heavy residue, and many users find conditioner is optional after washing. Because it’s concentrated, a little goes a long way compared with bottled shampoos.

• Generates stable foam with moderate rubbing or massaging
• Rinses cleanly for a balanced finish
• One 3.5 oz bar replaces up to ~24 oz of liquid shampoo
• Most users report no need for additional conditioner

How eco-friendly and travel-friendly is this solid shampoo?

As a solid bar, it eliminates the need for a disposable plastic bottle and reduces packaging waste. The compact size saves luggage space and bypasses liquid restrictions for air travel. The biodegradable ingredients make post-use disposal low-impact compared to synthetic formulas.

• Solid format avoids single-use plastic bottles
• Minimal, biodegradable packaging and ingredients
• Compact 3.5 oz bar fits easily in travel kits
• Handmade in small batches on a solar-powered farm in Cornish, NH
