Love the idea of sustainable shampoo bars but struggle with them? Our brand new refillable and nourishing Shampoo Concentrate is just for you. A 2x concentrated sulfate-free shampoo with added Green Tea extract and Aloe Vera to gently invigorate and cleanse. The oil-free formula leaves hair super soft without weighing it down.

Our water-activated, oil-free, vegan, nourishing shampoo concentrate has half the water content of a regular shampoo. 100% naturally derived and biodegradable.

Directions for use

Make sure you wet your hair thoroughly. You can then either:

1. Apply tiny amounts of shampoo around your hair line and rub to create a lather. Massage and distribute over scalp, down to your nape (neck). Rinse out well.

2. Rub a pea-sized amount of shampoo between wet palms to activate the lather. Run your hands over your scalp and continue to massage the shampoo over your whole scalp. Rinse well. Do a second time with a very tiny amount of shampoo if necessary. Rinse well again.

If your hair has a 'squeaky' feeling when you rinse, the shampoo has done its job. Bear in mind that a little goes a long way – it's important to distribute it evenly over your scalp. Lather is lovely, but it's not necessary to get a good result (more info in our post).

Please note: As with any brand new product, Shampoo Concentrate may take a few times to get the hang of. It's a sulfate free shampoo, so it has a gentle lather (activated by water and friction) and is non-stripping. Its mildness means that it won't remove ALL of your natural scalp oil – which is there to protect your hair to keep it strong and healthy. 

Fragrance

Choose from Bergamot essential oil fragrance or fragrance free (recommended for very sensitive skin and during pregnancy). 

Please note: fragrance free is made to order so there may be a longer dispatch on your order than usual.

Not for me

Sadly this one just didn't do it for me. I loved that it was truly fragrance free, and I really love the sustainable glass jar, but I'm definitely glad I got the small jar to try. Used as directed and even tried tips from other reviews but it just didn't make my hair feel as nice, or work as well as the bars, it also didn't keep my hair clean for as long as the bars, so sadly this one is a pass for me. But your mileage may vary.

I wasn't sure if they were over-egging how concentrated this product is but it's absolutely amazing. I am finding that 2 washes takes less than a teaspoon of the shampoo. It's a lovely leather and leaves my hair feeling great.

Thank you for your support and lovely review, means the world to us :))

If you are someone who suffers from an itchy scalp condition, who reacts to other haircare products and/or who just wants a shampoo with minimal ingredients that does an incredible job of effectively cleaning the hair and scalp, please give this shampoo concentrate a try. For reference, I have the fragrance-free version and currently use it with the Cream Conditioner (but also love the Treatment Conditioner!)

It took me some trial and error and a little time before I found a way of using this concentrate that not only gave me shiny, clean, healthy hair but that didn't irritate my scalp. To begin with, I used it as directed, applying the concentrate direct to the hairline in small amounts, massaging, rinsing etc but I did find it a little tricky just using pea-sized quantities and I also still noticed some itching after use. However, I didn't give up!

The method that works best for me and that results in absolutely NO irritation, itching etc, just clean, healthy, shiny hair is as follows: I take one of Jayne's brilliant aluminium pump bottles (available in the shop 😉 ) and decant my shampoo concentrate into one of these. I then take a separate 100ml bottle and every time I wash my hair, I squirt two pumps of concentrate into the empty bottle, fill it to the top with water, shake and apply the full bottle all over my scalp. I massage it in thoroughly, rinse and repeat with another two pumps. The result after around 2 months of using it this way is the healthiest, cleanest hair and the most comfortable scalp I have had in years. I can go longer between washes without my scalp getting oily or itchy and the natural auburn and blonde tones in my hair have even started to shine through where for years, my hair looked dull and unhealthy.

As I said earlier, it may take you some trial and error but don't be afraid to experiment a little with the concentrate. If one method doesn't work for you, perhaps try it another way and you may just find a holy grail product like I have. I have never had such a comfortable, happy scalp and my hair is looking better than it has in years. It is also easier to style which is an added bonus.

This shampoo is great! This is a repeat purchase. I love the way my hair feels so clean after use. I wash my hair every 1 - 2 weeks, and it doesn't seem to get so dirty in between times. A pea size amount goes a long way, so the concentrate lasts ages.
I have been exclusively purchasing hair products from hairy Jayne for over a decade and couldn't do without them. My hair feels more nourished, looks less frizzy and smells divine!

I’ve got fine hair and have always struggled to find a good shampoo, but this one really surprised me. It’s the best one I’ve ever used and means I can go longer between washes. A little goes a long way and it leaves my hair really soft and shiny.
