kalliope ‘s-Organic Shampoo Bar Yellow – For normal and oily hair
A solid shampoo bar is a great -and more importantly!- sustainable alternative to liquid shampoo. Its solid form resembles that of a bar soap and drastically reduces plastic waste. Needless to say, it’s top for travelling, but also for keeping your bathroom neat, visually appealling and clear of distractions.
This shampoo bar has a citrus scent, thanks to orange and lemon essential oils and lathers up in a thick, steady, lace-like foam due to our chosen baby-gentle naturally-derived cleansing agents. All the while, we’ve included some soft clay for its purifying properties but also for its creamy feel. And let’s not forget our own produce, naturally farmed, supreme quality virgin Greek olive oil, infused with homegrown laurel, sage and calendula to make for an overall more moisturising effect, with herbal hair fortifying kicks.
Extra benefit: Use this shampoo bar as a body wash too! Its velvety foam and slightly scrubby surface will amaze you.
As it is SLS and sulfate-free, it’s a perfect choice for people with more sensitive skin, or even rosacea patients who have irritation issues with industrial shampoos. Be aware that this shampoo bar is also not a soap. Nothing bad about a soap -and we make some crunchy ones from our organic cold-pressed olive oil! However, some people (including me >profile: very long, very dense, thick hair) find it hard to make do with a traditional soap for washing their hair. This might be for a variety of reasons, including behaviour and after-feel of the hair, time or the naturally alkaline pH of soaps. Alternatively, the suds in this shampoo bar come from ECOCERT, naturally-derived and skin-friendly surfactants with a skin & hair-compatible pH. Their cleansing capacity is toned down just a bit with the addition of our pure oil, such as to care for you in a very tender way.
Ideal for normal and oily hair

Kalliope’s is all about:
Absolutely! One of the best things about this shampoo bar is that it’s free from harsh sulfates like SLS, which often irritate sensitive skin and conditions like rosacea. Instead, it uses gentle, naturally-derived cleansing agents that clean without stripping or aggravating your scalp. The soothing herbal extracts like chamomile and melissa also help calm inflammation, making it a great choice if your skin tends to react to conventional shampoos. Just remember to rinse thoroughly and avoid letting the bar sit in water to keep it lasting longer!
For normal to oily hair, you can comfortably use this shampoo bar every other day or even daily if you feel your scalp needs it. Its gentle cleansing agents and purifying clay make it effective at balancing oil while keeping your hair feeling fresh. If your hair tends to get oily faster, daily use can help without causing dryness. If you’re switching from a traditional liquid shampoo, give your scalp a week or two to adjust—sometimes natural products take a little time to balance your hair’s natural oils.
Definitely! That’s one of the perks of solid shampoo bars—they’re super travel-friendly and TSA-approved since there’s no liquid to worry about. Just pop it in a small soap pouch or tin, and you’re good to go. When you’re using it daily, try to let it dry out between washes by storing it in a ventilated soap dish or hanging pouch. This keeps it from getting mushy and helps it last longer, whether you’re at home or jet-setting across the globe.
Great question! First off, it’s a much more eco-friendly option. Since it’s solid, it massively cuts down on plastic waste compared to bottled shampoos. Plus, it’s made with high-quality, natural ingredients like virgin Greek olive oil infused with laurel, sage, and calendula, which nourish your hair without any synthetic nasties. The clay adds a purifying touch that helps control oiliness while giving your hair a lovely creamy feel. And that citrus scent from orange and lemon essential oils? It’s refreshing without being overpowering. All in all, it’s a sustainable, gentle, and effective alternative that’s crafted with care in small batches.
Yes, you totally can! The shampoo bar produces a thick, velvety foam that’s perfect for a creamy, gentle body wash. Its slightly scrubby texture helps exfoliate lightly, leaving your skin feeling clean and refreshed. It’s like a two-in-one product that simplifies your routine, especially handy when traveling or if you prefer minimal products. Just remember that since it’s formulated primarily for hair, you might want to patch test first if you have especially sensitive or dry skin on your body.
Kalliope’s takes ingredient quality seriously. While this shampoo bar may not carry a big commercial certification label like “USDA Organic,” it’s crafted with wild-harvested and organically grown plants, ensuring top-notch purity. All botanical extracts are produced in-house, which means they have tight control over the sourcing and processing. The product is free from petrochemicals, harsh preservatives, synthetic dyes, and non-biodegradable compounds. So, while you might not see flashy certifications on the package, you can trust the commitment to natural, ethical, and sustainable standards.
Using it is super simple! First, wet your hair thoroughly. Then gently glide the bar over your scalp once or twice—no need to rub aggressively. The shampoo will lather into a thick, luxurious foam thanks to its natural surfactants. Massage the foam from roots to ends to cleanse and nourish. Rinse well, and voilà! If you like, run the bar over your body for a creamy cleanse there too. To keep the bar in good shape, store it somewhere dry between uses—either a soap dish with drainage or the included hanging pouch. This helps it last longer and keeps your routine eco-friendly and fuss-free.
