We are passionate about minimising our impact and have spent some sleepless nights trying to figure out how to offer an amazing Palm oil free shampoo & conditioner alternatives that treats your hair & the environment well. At the beginning we looked at glass packaging for the Shampoo & Conditioner but saw that there could be some problems with glass in tiled showers & bathrooms so we went with a strong, recyclable plastic that is actually recycled and can be used again.

See more about our recycling program below.

How can you use the Plastic refill program?
​If you purchase our shampoo or conditioner you can return the bottles to us for refilling. This process will take around a week and will give you the opportunity to do your bit by using the bottles over and over again before recycling them if they ever get too worn out. Our shampoo & conditioner bottles can be recycled into carpets and many other products but we prefer to just use them as much as we can before having to do that.
