Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, but only when it's formulated as a true shampoo rather than a repurposed soap bar. The Dip bar uses gentle, coconut-derived cleansing agents that lift oil buildup and old styling product without leaving hair feeling stripped. It's pH balanced and works well enough for daily use; one customer noted it held up after a full day working in a restaurant.
The formulations are fundamentally different. Bar soap is alkaline and can leave a waxy residue on hair, disrupt the scalp's pH, and cause tangling or dryness. The Dip shampoo bar is built around the same surfactant technology found in salon-grade liquid shampoos, just in a waterless solid form, which means no detox phase, no apple cider vinegar rinses, and no adjustment period.
Yes, it uses the exact same base formula as the scented bars with fragrance simply left out. Every cleansing, conditioning, and scalp-supporting ingredient is identical. One customer noted that in summer, hair air dries smelling like fresh air rather than a product scent, which they found appealing.
Yes, the Dip shampoo bar is formulated to be safe for color-treated and chemically processed hair. It's pH balanced, which matters for maintaining color integrity, and the cleansing agents are gentle enough to clean without the dryness that can speed up fade. It's suitable for bleached, dyed, and otherwise treated hair types.
Just one small step on the first use: the bar arrives with a smooth surface and needs a quick rub between the hands to rough it up before applying it to hair. After that first wash, no priming is needed. The most common ongoing mistake is pressing too hard since the bar lathers better with a light touch, letting it glide over wet hair rather than dragging it against the scalp.

Functional Doctor Recommended—and Approved!

"I love the Dip unscented shampoo, conditioner, and body wash bars! When I first tried the shampoo bar, I was so pleasantly surprised by how easily and luxuriously it lathers. The conditioner bar lasts for an impressive amount of uses and leaves my hair feeling amazing. The body bar leaves my skin feeling incredibly clean and lathers beautifully—both on its own and with a loofah. My functional medicine doctor recommended these products to me, and I am so grateful to have them as a essential part of my clean routine. Thank you to everyone at Dip!"

Only brand I trust with my hair products!

"I absolutely love Dip bar shampoo and body wash! As someone who cares about the environment i again this this brand. My hair has never felt cleaner in the past year i’ve used dip! All the scents are amazing especially the limited edition ones when you shop locally! As someone who loves the beach and is an Electrician my hair can get messy and knotty but dip is always the answer and always makes my hair a 10/10 every single time i shower!"

Somewhat drying for curly hair

"Easy to use, good lather, and the unscented version didn't irritate my scalp but as a curly girl living in an arid climate I found the shampoo bar too drying — maybe it's the glycerin? Unfortunate because there's a lot to like about the product otherwise. :("

Finally. .

"I’ve used a lot of shampoo and conditioner bars. They pretty much all suck or fall apart in like a week. So when I tell you these are incredible, I mean it!! I double cleanse with the shampoo and use the conditioner and leave just a little bit in my hair and it brings out my waves and makes my hair so soft. Finally. . a good shampoo bar."

A (5/5)

My favorite shampoo and conditioner

"I have fine long 2b curls and my 3 yr old had 3b curls. We only use the conditioner on him and it's the only one I've found that actually works. We use it once in the bath or shower. Then again as a leave in conditioner and brush it through. It's the only conditioner I've found out of 14 different brands that works. I tell everybody about it!"
