Got vivid hair color?! Here are some tips & tricks to keep your vivid hair color beautiful with the Dip Shampoo & Conditioner Bars

Let's dive into the best practices for taking care of vivid hair color at home.  Not all of us can make it to the salon for frequent touchups so the best we can hope for is to use products that help keep the color in as long as possible.  That's where we shine.  Our founder, Kate, even made her hair vivid pink during testing & development to make sure these bars were the real deal. So here are her tips to help maintain color vibrancy while using dip shampoo bars and the dip conditioner bar as a hair mask: 1. Firstly, it's crucial to maintain the hair color by washing it less often. As we know, frequent washing fades the color more quickly. So, try to stretch out your washes as long as possible, and when you do wash your hair, use lukewarm or cool water instead of hot. You can use dip shampoo bars that are specifically formulated for colored hair, as they are sulfate-free and gentle on your hair, helping to keep your color looking bold and beautiful.

What's your hair care attachment style?!

Don’t get me wrong, I love my hair. But when I know wash day is coming up, I mentally prepare myself. My hair texture requires a gentle hand and time to pre-poo, wash, condition (I leave it in for at least 30 minutes. . .

Your Shampoo Bottles Are Not Causing The Ocean Plastic Problem. Here’s Why That Matters

Your Shampoo Bottles Are Not Causing The Ocean Plastic Problem. Here’s Why That Matters

Most shampoo bottles are landfill-bound, not ocean-bound, so be wary of marketing campaigns that automatically tie recycled plastic or plastic-free alternatives as “ocean-friendly”.  You still need to consider all the plastic around the bottle too, including the plastic film used for palletized goods (cling film literally lasts a millennia before it degrades!) Our plastic problem goes way beyond what we throw out: it goes back to the amount of virgin plastic we create, the inefficiency of recycling the plastic we already have, and the “on-demand” consumeristic mindset that makes this type of throwaway plastic in such high demand.

No hair texture left behind: creating an all-textures welcomed culture

Dip deserves a slow clap moment, because it’s about time that there’s a quality, sustainable product that is good for your hair and the environment.  Let’s keep in mind that until recently, sustainable beauty was not very colorful (literally and figuratively) in how it was marketed. Aside from crunchy packaging that came in fifty shades of beige, there was a lack of diversity in the faces and hair textures we saw representing these beauty brands.

Why Dip has no pink tax for shampoo bars and conditioner bars

No Pink Tax

Most data will support that the pink tax costs a woman an average of 1,351 USD per year in comparison to if a man bought the same quantity. We’re not cool with this discrepancy so we refuse to let it creep into our costs. We have shampoo bars and the best conditioner bar for any gender.
