Obviously, taking a shampoo bar is the best option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below we have discussed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Buy shampoo when you arrive at your destination<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take a small bottle of shampoo that is less than 100 mL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take shampoo bars when you travel<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>After we have convinced you that taking shampoo bars travelling is the best idea, we have included some product recommendations.&nbsp; These recommendations are not only for shampoo, but also for body wash and face care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buy shampoo when you arrive at your destination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You could leave your shampoo at home.&nbsp; This means not take shampoo travelling, and buy it when you arrive.&nbsp; &nbsp;This approach is very risky, because:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>You might not find any suitable shampoo at your destination.&nbsp; This has happened to us often.&nbsp; More often than not, it&#8217;s finding conditioner that is the issue.&nbsp; Travelling through Croatia years ago, my thick, curly frizzy hair was a complete disaster.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You might only find shampoo that isn&#8217;t suitable for your hair.&nbsp; Then, your hair might end up clean, but damaged.&nbsp; It&#8217;s not worth it!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also wasteful.&nbsp; You often need to leave what is left in the bottle behind when you are off to your next destination.&nbsp; Wasted shampoo, and another plastic bottle that won&#8217;t biodegrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take a small bottle of shampoo that is less than 100 mL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can buy small refillable bottles especially for travelling.&nbsp; Then, you decant your favorite shampoo and conditioern into the bottles to take with you on your trip.&nbsp;&nbsp;The disadvantages of this are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>100 mL is only a small amount.&nbsp; You might use up your travel shampoo up very quickly, then be left with none anyway and need to revert to buying whatever shampoo is available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You risk your shampoo leaking through your luggage.&nbsp; This has happened to the best of us.&nbsp; You might wonder why bottles leak in flight.&nbsp; Air pressure changes while flying can cause the liquid in bottles to expand.&nbsp; Some bottles just can&#8217;t cope with the added pressure, and the liquid then leaks out all over whatever else you have in your bag.&nbsp; To prevent this, some people use plastic wrap.&nbsp; This plastic wrap ends up in the trash, contributing to our plant&#8217;s environmental issues.&nbsp; We would rather avoid this.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take shampoo bars when you travel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The simplest, most environmentally friendly, hair-friendly and of course airline friendly shampoo option is to take shampoo bars when you travel.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the reasons why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Shampoo bars are a non-liquid shampoo.\n<ul>\n<li>With solid shampoo bars, you don&#8217;t need to worry about the liquid restriction rules that apply to air travel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You don&#8217;t need to take your shampoo bars out of your bag when going through security which reduces travel stress (especially when there is a queue forming behind you). <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shampoo bars don&#8217;t leak into your luggage.\n<ul>\n<li>No more exploding bottle of liquid in your luggage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You won&#8217;t end up with broken bottles that need to be thrown out<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No wasted (and usually expensive) shampoo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Best of all, no more slimy clothes and toiletry items to clean.&nbsp; What a way to start a holiday! <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can keep up the same hair care regime as at home.\n<ul>\n<li>This is much better than changing your hair routine while you are travelling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You know the product, and you know it&#8217;s right for your hair. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You won&#8217;t run out.\n<ul>\n<li>Shampoo bars last for a really long time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One shampoo bar is equivalent to 2-4 bottles of regular shampoo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You won&#8217;t need to look for shampoo while you are travelling.&nbsp; Extra fun time! <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shampoo bars take up less space\n<ul>\n<li>They are small.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are pushed for space (every gram counts when it comes to hand luggage) you can cut it in half and just take a small piece. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Less plastic waste.&nbsp; This is a biggie.\n<ul>\n<li>Travelers and backpackers leave a trail of plastic bottles wherever they go.&nbsp; This is often in developing countries that do not have the facilities to dispose of plastic or recycle your waste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It&#8217;s not fair to leave other people to deal with the with the effects of our bad plastic habits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most shampoo bars even come with zero-waste packaging. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Convinced?&nbsp; Shampoo bars are undoubtedly the best option for shampoo to take travelling.&nbsp; Conditioner bars are just as easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are new to solid shampoo bars, you can find our <a href=\"https:\/\/shampooandconditionerbars.com\/detoxing-your-hair-and-why-you-need-to-do-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">guide to transitioning from regular shampoo to solid shampoo here (click link).<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Product recommendations:&nbsp; Shampoo bars for travel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re going to give you some product recommendations for shampoo bars for travel, along with some other non-liquid toiletries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sampler packs of solid shampoo and conditioner are perfect for travelling.&nbsp; The are smaller than a regular bar.&nbsp; You can keep them in your toiletries bag and leave the bigger bars in the bathroom at home.&nbsp; That way, you are less likely to forget to pack them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t need to stop at shampoo bars when you are travelling.&nbsp; Clever people have developed a range of solid beauty and body care products that make packing a breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to see if these products suit you is to try a sampler pack.&nbsp; Ethique sell a range, categorized by either body \/ hair, or by your hair and skin type.&nbsp; Check out the options below on Amazon&nbsp; to see what suits you and your skin type, or hair type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"true\";\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"shampooforyou35-20\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"manual\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_title = \"Travel shampoo and body care sample options\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"01e24410aefea524a2d8de3802f7e38e\";\namzn_assoc_asins = \"B07TN2B4QF,B07TN2DS67,B07TN2GYSP,B07YYJYVQ7,B0761VRNL6,B0761X424Q,B0761WZDNH,B07TP4HJ2V\";\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The best shampoo for travelling is undoubtedly a shampoo bar.&nbsp; There is no contest!
