CURL-DEFINING Shampoo Bar

I have been using the curl defining bar for 2 years. They have recently changed the formula and shape. Very impressed with the ergonomics of the shape, however very disappointed that it does not fit in the previous bar holders. They were an environmental investment that are now rendered useless, disappointing from a company who prides itself on minimising packaging waste. I also find the shampoo does not lather like the previous product.

I have always loved ethique's curl-defining shampoo, so I was a little nervous when the packaging and formulas went through a small change. I have been so pleasantly surprised - This shampoo lathers even better than the last, making it easier to fully wash my hair. It hydrates my curls, and it smells divine!

Bit of a learners curve to bar shampoo- but overall good, I liked the lather, the scent isn’t too strong, and my waves looked good after styling

I absolutely love every Ethique shampoo and conditioner bar that I have tried so far and the curl-defining shampoo bar is no exception. I love the fresh lemongrass scent! Now that the weather is becoming much more humid here in the south, I thought I would try this bar. It delivers moisture and tames my coarse wavy hair! It totally eliminates frizz as well even if you spend hours outdoors! I don’t even need conditioner, but I am definitely purchasing the matching conditioner!

I actually switched to Ethique from HiBAR, because the teardrop shape of that shampoo bar was so impractical. First, I tried aerated soap sacks, which resulted in the bar becoming mushy and useless way too quickly. Then, I tried keeping them in their cardboard packaging, but the packaging disintegrated quickly. Ultimately, I switched to Ethique, which was a great quality shampoo bar in a normal, square shape. I bought the Ethique container with the ventilated bottom, and it worked like a charm. Now why on earth have you all have picked some other quirky & difficult-to-store shape for your formerly travel-friendly, gym shower tote-friendly shampoo bar? I just reordered and was super disappointed to find my new shampoo bar no longer fits the contained I bought from you. Sure, it looks neat, but it's totally impractical and not as easy to use. How am I supposed to hold it? Like a handle? Then I'm rubbing the narrowest part on my hair. Broadside? It flips around in your hand. And how is this going to wear down? With an awkward hole in the middle of the broadside or the wide part of the moon? Please reconsider this. It's a horrible design. Please also offer a travel container that actually fits the two bars I just bought, at least until you come to your senses and switch back. Here's hoping...
