Do shampoo bars work as well as liquid shampoos?
Do shampoo bars work as well as liquid shampoos?
Yes - when they’re formulated properly, shampoo bars work just as well as liquid shampoos.
Ailynné shampoo bars are NOT soap. They’re made with the same high-performance cleansing and conditioning ingredients you’d expect from a premium liquid shampoo, just without the added chemicals and water. The result is a rich lather, effective cleansing, and hair that feels clean, soft, and healthy - never stripped.

I’ve never used shampoo bars before - where should I start?
I’ve never used shampoo bars before - where should I start?
If you’re new to shampoo bars, we recommend starting with one of Ailynne’s best-selling options. Many people find the Strengthening Shampoo Bar or Volumising Shampoo Bar a great all-round starting point, as they suit a wide range of hair types and give a clear sense of how our formulas perform.
Some customers also like to add a second shampoo bar to rotate with, depending on their hair needs. A Moisturising Shampoo Bar is ideal if your hair feels dry or frizzy, while a Clarifying Shampoo Bar is perfect for occasional deeper cleansing - especially if you use styling products or have an oilier scalp.
Rotating shampoos is completely normal and can help keep hair balanced, healthy, and looking its best. If you’re ever unsure, we’re always happy to help you choose with confidence.

How much do I use per wash?
A little goes a long way! Everyone’s hair is different, so expect a bit of trial and error until you find out what works best for you. Start with enough to clean from your roots and scalp to the ends of your hair. If you’re not seeing results, we recommend applying more during your wash time.
