Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the bar is pH balanced and uses gentle cleansing agents specifically chosen to clean without stripping. It holds up fine for daily use, including for people who train or sweat regularly. A customer who washes frequently noted it leaves hair clean and soft without affecting color.
Most solid bars rely on a soap base that can be too harsh for color-treated hair, but this one uses a non-soap, pH-balanced formula designed to be color-safe. It removes oil and product buildup without the kind of stripping that fades dye. It is also certified vegan and plastic-free, which liquid shampoos in plastic bottles are not.
No, and that concern is legitimate with soap-based bars, but this one is formulated differently. There is no adjustment period, no transition phase, and no need for apple cider vinegar rinses. A customer who had tried other bars and washes in a hard water area noted this one left hair feeling clean without any film.
Yes, though results can vary depending on how it is applied. The formula is designed for all hair types, and the key for fine hair is using very light pressure so the bar glides over strands rather than dragging. A customer with fine hair reported it added shine without weighing hair down.
It's a warm, woody fragrance with notes of sea salt, amber, and vanilla alongside the tobacco and driftwood. It leans toward the more masculine side of the spectrum, but reads as rich and cozy rather than sharp or cologne-like. One customer described it as stunning and said it's unlike anything else they've found.

One of the best shampoos

"One of the best shampoos I've ever used! I have very thick, coarse hair, and it's hard to find a shampoo that doesn't leave it greasy or dried out. This shampoo has been a lifesaver. I've tried other shampoos that worked for a few washes, but my hair goes back to being greasy. I've been using this with the conditioner for over 6 months, and it keeps my hair clean and soft."

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!"

Love it!

"When I read the product description and it said the products are better than Oribe or Kerestasse I thought that was a big exaggeration. However, I have been so pleasantly surprised at how much lather the shampoo bar creates and how soft my hair is. The scent is really nice and the best part is that it supports the Great Lakes and reduces plastic packaging."

— Gina F. (5/5)

Best smell!

"I switched to this years ago and I’ll never go back. I was worried that a bar would be hard to use but it’s been great and I can go days without washing without being greasy. And I love the smell!"

I am obsessed!

"I am obsessed with this product and use it all the time!!"

— Holly H. (5/5)

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. :("

— Natalie (4/5)
