Bundle Savings

Buy a bundle of 4 to save!

Your Solo Routine

Swirl the bar in your hands, or hair, with water to create a lather. Rinse and repeat for maximum bubble effect. Gently massage the scalp and skin; rinse thoroughly for clean, healthy hair and body.

Store out of direct water flow, in a cool, dry well ventilated place, preferably on a draining dish or in a soap saver bag, out of direct sunlight. (see Accessories)

We’ve gone tintastic!

Solo Bars come in a tin. Please reuse or recycle with your drink and food cans! We've chosen tins for our packaging as they are infinitely recyclable. They protect the bar on its journey to you, help preserve the moisture levels in the bar before the use and are perfect for when you travel!

  • SUSTAINABLE

    Each Solo Bar is hand poured in England. Our core ingredients are COSMOS and ECOCERT approved. We never use palm oil and have chosen tin to package items in, as it is infinitely recyclable and protects our bars in transit.

  • THE POWER OF NATURAL

    We only used plant based ingredients because, rather than stripping your scalp and skin of its natural oils, our formulations - free of sulphates, silicones and known toxins - bring balance back to your shower routine.

  • LABEL FATIGUE?

    Us too! We promise that every product, across our entire brand, is free of any questionable ingredient with a bad press (they won’t suddenly sneak into future launches either – we hate that).

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like to use a bar?

We appreciate that, the first time you use a bar, is a bit scary, but Solo is easy to use. You can either create some lather in your hands and apply it to your hair, or you can rub the bar into the roots of your hair and work up the lather from there.

If using as a body bar, we suggest creating lather in your hands, placing the bar down, and then applying the lather over your body. If you take the bar and rub it up and down your limbs, it won’t last as long!

You can also use a ‘soap saver’ bag and apply the bar through the bag. See Accessories.

We recommend storing the bar on a soap ladder, or in a dish that drains, outside of the shower. That way the bar hardens between uses and, therefore, lasts longer. Most importantly, the bar should not sit in water, as it will soften and not last as long.

Can I use it everywhere?

Solo is formulated as a head to toe product. I, and many customers, also use it on their face. As long as you don’t have specific skin conditions, this may work for you too.

Oh and, by the way, it also works as an emergency clothes wash if you’re away!

Solo is about freedom from multiple bottles, so experiment and let us know how you get on!

Can children use Solo?

Solo is formulated for anyone aged 5 and over.

Does it lather?

Absolutely! And it you apply to your hair, rinse and repeat, the lather really kicks in. You can create even more lather by using a Konjac sponge (see Accessories).

How long does it last?

It depends on the length of your hair. On my shoulder length, thick hair, a bar can last 20+ washes.

When travelling, our experience is that one bar, if used as recommended, will last for at least 2 weeks for one person.

Does my hair have to get used to it?

Absolutely not! There is no need for your hair to 'get used' to Solo Bars.

And it is not a problem to switch between other brands of shampoo and Solo.

Can I use on colour treated hair?

Yes, Solo is sulphate free so doesn’t affect your hair colour. Infact, some clients say that, since switching to Solo, their colour lasts longer.

Can I use on curly hair?

Yes, customers with curly hair have found the natural oils in Solo support their curls, making them easier to manage. Some customers also report a reduction in frizz.

How often do I need to wash my hair?

It is gentle enough to use every day but customers tell us that, having switched to Solo, they only need to wash their hair twice a week.

What if it doesn’t suit my scalp?

If Solo does not suit your skin or scalp, get in contact with us within 30 days of purchase to start your return process.

Solo Sensual Neroli & Geranium

I haven't tried the bar out yet, but I'm interested to know why you are now using tins instead of the previous cardboard box (cardboard more environmentally friendly?) Also the bar seems quite soft and I am a bit worried that it will disappear quickly. I will have to see. Are the bars slightly bigger than the previous product design? I will need to try it, but my first impression is that I preferred the previous product...Thanks for the opportunity to comment.

Hi Katya, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I hope you enjoy using the bar!
I wanted to answer some of your questions here:
We switched to tin beacuse, sadly, as a small company, the cost to us for ordering cardboard boxes became, in the last 18months, 4 times the cost of using tin. We were concerned about this switch too but tin, we discovered, is infinitely recyclable (unlike carboard) and, we hope people think of the tins, in the same way you do a baked bean can, and put it in recycling. On testing, we also found that the tin preserves the bar better while in storage. (Because we use essential oils, they begin to 'off-gas' and if they are kept in the tin between production and use, the scent stays for longer.) That being said, we may move back to compostable cardboard, if we can get more orders flowing through. Its all about Minimum Order Quantities MOQ; a phrase that is so impcatful on a small business and when you are producing an artisan, hand poured product!
Please be assured that the bar's formulation is exactly the same as the previous version. Nothing has changed except we are using a slighly larger mould, so you get a slightly larger bar! You'll find that it you leave the bar out of the tin - in the fresh air - it will harden slightly. It is a blend of plant oils and so it is impacted by the warmth and humidity of the room it is in. I'm currently using one of our soap trays and I leave it on the edge on my bath. I take the 'ladder' section, with the bar on, in and out of the shower to ensure it dries out between uses. I can get 20+ hair washes per bar. If you lather it up in your hair, or in your hands and then apply, it will last a lot longer than rubbing the bar up and down your limbs.
Hope this answers your questions, we hope you enjoy your Solo Bars, and we look forward to hearing how you get on!
