Same amazing concentrate - now inside a home-compostable bag! You may notice that our concentrated powders now have slightly different packaging: a little bag which sits inside our home-compostable box. A complexity of using a home-compostable box is that they can be very fragile, and we want to ensure that these concentrates arrive to you safe, secure, and ready to mix! Of course, the little bags inside are compostable, biodegradable, and made from a renewable plant source. Depending on your region, the packaging you receive may vary as we transition to include the clever little bags. If you have any questions, drop us a line.

1. Pour entire contents of box into a heat-proof jug.
2. Add 300ml (10.14 fl.oz.) of just-boiled water and gently stir till with a fork until the powder has dissolved. The key word here is *gently*. Otherwise, you’ll get a whole lotta foam on your bench that you’ll then need to deal with.
3. Allow it to cool slightly, then pour the mixture into a bottle you already own and pop a label on it. Give it a few shakes while it’s cooling.
4. Once made, use your liquid shampoo within six months.

Massage into wet hair; starting at the roots and working down the ends. Apply a coin size amount to wet hair and scalp. Massage in well to create a creamy lather before working down ends. Rinse for bouncy, refreshed, healthy-looking hair.

Use any plastic or aluminum container – it’s best to choose something that is shatter-proof. Even better if it has a pump to make washing a little easier.

Great for all the family

We love this for a go-to shampoo for all our family. Less nasties for the kids, economical and easy to make up new batch.

Does the job, but goes through it fast

Pretty easy to make, works alright, but I find I have to double wash before I get enough lather.

Good alternative to the bar if you can't make it work, but I think I will go back to the bar as I use this up far too quickly.

It's a nope for me

Have been using the balancing shampoo and conditioner combo for a few days now. Day 1 (a few hours after mixing) the conditioner had more lather than the shampoo and I couldn't tell which was which even though I was very intentional about what bottles I put them in. Day 2 shampoo had no lather at all and hair felt more greasy than before I washed it. Day 3 tried using less product based on Ethique comments to other users about this problem, but still had the same issue, and felt more greasy than before washing again.

I won't likely be repurchasing any of the concentrates. I really wanted to love them, because I'm sensitive to coconut oil and most low-waste hair care products contain it, really limiting my options.

Hi Jessica,

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback for our Concentrates, although I'm sorry to hear you haven't loved these ones!

May I ask how you were using this product and how you made it up?

As a part of our product guarantee, I'd love to send you another Shampoo and Conditioner Concentrate - perhaps our Nourishing Shampoo and Conditioner or perhaps our bars instead? If you're interested in this please reach out to us via hello@ethique.com alongside your delivery details and the products you'd like to try. Alternatively, if you've purchased through our website, I can refund this for you instead 😊
