Made for curly hair, this shampoo bar is made with natural oils, butters, and proteins that are chemical free. This shampoo bar can also be used on treated hair.

This shampoo bar has Pro-Vitamin B5 to help keep hair moisturized and shiny.

The Coconut Island Solid Shampoo is made using the following:

• Coconut Oil: Excellent for helping repair damaged or brittle hair. Coconut oil is known to be antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial.
• Argan Oil: Contain Vitamin E and helps promote elasticity. 
• Squalane Oil: A powerhouse of an oil, squalane oil helps improve moisture retention, breakage and shine. For curly hair, squalane oil helps tame frizz without making hair greasy.
• Castor Oil: Rich in ricinoleic acid, a fatty acid, castor oil provides a protective barrier for the hair while also helping with dandruff and dry scalp, due to it's anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. 
• Curl Enhancer: Curly hair is more prone to breakage and damage, and it can easily become dry and brittle. Curly hair can also be difficult to detangle and style. This curl enhancing ingredient contains a lactobacillus ferment, plus rice extract and amino acids. That means that it can help strengthen curly strands and keep them hydrated and flexible. With conditioning benefits, this enhancer helps curly hair become easier to detangle and more manageable for styling.  
• Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein: This protein helps amino acids penetrate and coat the hair to help keep moisture in and protect your hair from environmental stressors. It can also help soften and strengthen hair, leaving it less prone to breakage and damage.

Unlike traditional bottled shampoos, this shampoo is solid, producing more washes than your typical shampoo and there is no container to have to toss away afterwards. Plastic bottles that are not recycled often end up in landfills, making more unnecessary waste and contributing to litter and ocean pollution.
