My little girl has the loveliest crown of 4a hair that is down to her waist when wet and shrinks to her shoulders when dry. Her hair doesnt hang down, it is a big beautiful puffy fro! We have tried all the different curly girl hair products, but the Hydrate set has truly been magic! The shampoo bar is way easier to use to get into all parts of her thick hair compared to a liquid. And the conditioner bar has the best noureshment and slip! We shampoo, then condition and leave the conditioner in. I just finger comb her hair. Then we pineapple her hair and let it dry. When I need to touch up her hair or detangle between washes, I use the conditioner bar and a spray bottle with water, and just wet her hair, put some conditioner bar on it, smooth it through, and leave it! Way less tears now and her hair is just gorgeous! Way less cost to us and the environment now as we used to go through so much liquid shampoo/conditioner and bottles. Thank you Vida SO much!!

I tried several shampoo and conditioner bars and none worked for my 3b curls, until now! I tried these and my mind was blown! I've been using the hydrate set for several months, and my thirsty hair loves both bars. The bars last a long time and come in a cute pouch that is great for travel. The shampoo bar actually makes my hair feel soft as well as clean which I've never experience before (most shampoo makes my hair feel worse so I was a long time CGM follower until now). I'll never go back to shampoo and conditioner in bottles again!

I received my order yesterday, it arrived quickly and my mailbox smelled like a spa. The pouch is super cute and well made. I patiently waited to use them today as it is wash day and wow they are amazing! I had used shampoo bars before but never a conditioner bar so I was a bit unsure if I’d like it. They are easy to use and the shampoo lathers lovely, and the conditioner goes on nicely. I let it stay in a bun with the conditioner on while I showered and I noticed my hair detangled way easier before I rinsed it out. I styled as usual and my curls look great. It’s a rainy week here so I didn’t have high expectations for my styled hair due to humidity but my hair turned out lovely and with minimal frizz! Also my scalp feels better and soothed. Can’t wait to see how it looks when the weather is more curl friendly. I will continue to buy this and can’t wait to try the other bars as well. Thank you so much for all the hard work that goes into making them, it’s an honour to use the products of a WOF led company!

The Hydrate conditioner bars are my favorite shampoo and conditioner. My hair feels clean without beating stripped and the conditioner has amazing slip and sometimes I won’t rinse it all out as a leave in. My curls are shiny and bouncy with these bars. Also these are amazing for flying!

I wanted to find bar shampoo and conditioner for travel and had my eye on Vida bars for a while. I would say there’s for sure a learning curve to using them and in figuring out what works for you, but after the second wash I think I got it down. I like that my hair isn’t weighed down afterwards and I’m finding that my curl pattern is coming more to life. They also smell so good! Overall I’m really enjoying the results, the application is just something that took a moment to get used to.

I was very interested in this for a some time on Instagram and I finally decided to make the purchase. The hydrate shampoo bar has a great lather and really cleaned my hair. The conditioner is not only bigger which I love since I use more as a curly hair girl but it was so silky on my hair. I must say I was very sceptical due to it being a bar and I didnt know how it will take on my curls but I wanted something simple for when I travel and I was blown away by these bars. I used them in hard water and normally my hair feels dry no matter what but these made my hair feel exactly the same as it does at home soft and silky. The smell isnt too bad either and the packaging is helpful for travel if I dont want to leave them in the shower the bag is helpful do absorb the extra water. Love what you guys are doing.

I bought these for 5 year olds Lo Po curly hair & omg how they transformed her hair within one use!! It used to take an hour for us to pick her hair apart with conditioner in but when we used these the first time her hair detangled effortlessly & felt silkier than it ever has! I was so worried about her hair as it felt so dry & course for so long & nothing I tried was improving it. One use of these bars & we are hooked for life!! Don’t think I’ll ever use anything else on her hair or mine again! These saved us so much time & make washing & detangling her hair more of a quality time experience rather than an exorcism. Thank you sooo much! Plan to get some for my mom next as I have no doubt she will love them just as much as we do! As a matter of fact I’d like to buy these for everyone I know, they’re THAT good!!!

I was unhappy with my hair results for what felt like ages. I tried changing my routine, getting a trim, and even switching products. Nothing helped. Then I tried the Vida Bars Hydrate set. It changed everything! Now I actually LOVE how my hair looks! My curls are less frizzy, more defined, and I feel like my hair is actually beautiful. As a bonus, Vida Bars uses no plastic! Getting rid of all the plastic bottles cluttering up my shower sure felt GREAT! Thank you, Vida Bars! I can't wait to try the other sets.

I found this by Vidabars on Instagram and I’m so happy I did! I have curls that just go limp in dry weather. The vida bars make my hair and curls so soft, and they are gentle enough to use everyday. I love that there’s no plastic waste too. I was worried they were too expensive for me at first, but they last so long! I’m hooked and have recommended to several friends.

So thankful that I got these as a gift for the holidays. It’s quite the shock switching from liquids so there is a learning curve but I think it’s worth it! My curls are coming back slowly and surely!

I made the switch due to bars being environmentally friendly. I like these wayy better than lush or other businesses. Doesn't weight my hair done at all and my natural curls are coming back!!! I would only want them improve on: marking the difference between the shampoo and conditioner bar (the card tells which is which but I know I'm going to get it confused at some point) And carbon neutral shipping would be a huge plus

I gave 2 stars because the it’s not the worst product I’ve tried but it’s not my favorite. The bars take a while to emulsify and soften under warm water and rubbing together in hands. It’s difficult to apply the shampoo without causing added friction to the hair and to get it distributed throughout my scalp I have to do it in sections so it takes longer than liquid. Once the shampoo is rinse it leaves my hair feeling as if I had used a clarifying shampoo and feels drying. The conditioner application is even trickier because now that my hair has that squeaky clean feel it makes rubbing the bar on my hair difficult. It has very little slip as much as I try to emulsify with my hands and lightly rub down my strands it’s not an easy application. I normally finger strangle but with such little slip it made the process painful since all the bar rubbing added to my knots. I’m sad to say Nara are just not for my hair at this time.

Bars took a little getting used to for me, I switched over from Carol's Daughter black vanilla (liquid) shampoo and conditioner, which are nice but the smell bothered me so I kept on looking. These Vida bars smell amazing! It's like that smell you pick up when you walk into a spa-- not overpowering, just lovely. This didn't set off my allergies, either, which is another consideration for me. It left my hair smooth and my curls are nice and bouncy. I really enjoyed this product!

3b/3c curly red hair that tends to be thinner density, normal porosity and regular scalp. The condish has a great slip and the suds get my scalp clean without making it itchy! My skin tends to be sensitive and these bars are gold—never going back. My husband with 2b loose curls also loves these and he used to have bad scalp issues but has been dandruff free since he switched as well. It took time to learn how to condition without a gallon of product, but I wouldn’t go back. Ever.

I bought the hydrate combo for my daughter and myself. She has extremely thick and curly hair and I have less thick, but curly hair. We have both enjoyed the bars, it's moisturizing and doesn't weight your curls down! I also like that we can cut down the conditioner bottles all around the tubs.

These bars are simply amazing. My hair feels hydrated and clean at the same time. It was very easy to work the product through my hair, and I have very very thick 2b/2c hair. Finally, it is so so hard to find all natural products! These products don’t even use perfume fragrance- they have lovely essential oil natural fragrance. It checks all my boxes- natural, environmentally sound and small biz!

My hair is SOOOO soft! I have used about 4x so far and its been an adjustment getting used to the bar but I am 100% converted now! My hair feels super clean after each use but soft and well conditioned. THANK YOU for making these amazing products!!

I am so so so happy to find curly hair friendly shampoo and conditioner bars. I've only had a few wash days since receiving them, but enjoy the outcome so far. After using them, my hair feels clean but still moisturized.

I LOVE these bars!! I love the no packaging and I love how long they last. I cannot say enough good things!

Really love this product. I thought the bars might be hard to use, but they’re not at all. I usually comb conditioner through my hair. With the conditioner bar, my brush slid right through. When my hair is dry without any other product, it feels light, soft, but moisturized. And on top of all that, I absolutely love that they’re earth friendly.

I had always heard amazing things about these bars and decided during the Black Friday sale that I would give them a shot. I used them last night and was immediately blown away at how well they worked and how amazing my hair felt! I will definitely be buying more!

Love it. Excellent product... Leaves my hair smelling good and feeling soft. Thank you....

I started the curly girl method 9 months ago and have tried so many different shampoos, cowashes, and conditioners. These are the best! The shampoo gives a great lather. I use root touch up spray each wash day and haven’t had any product build up or need for deep cleanser since switching to these bars over a month ago. The hydration is great for my dry curls. Highly recommend!

I really like this product. The bars smell and handle well. They create such a rich lather from such a small amount of use. And my hair and scalp feel amazing. Highly recommended.

My very FIRST time using this set I had my best hair day in the history of caring about my hair. Seriously impressive moisture/protein balance - perfect for the fall/winter season as the air gets drier. Absolutely a fan!

The shampoo bar lathers sooooo good, you actually don’t need to rub the bar in your head if you don’t want to (I do cause I like it but the foam in your hands is enough) and it doesn’t build up in the scalp. The conditioner bar is also super easy to use, just making sure you read the instructions and section your hair while using it. My curly hair is very pleased ❤️

When I tried them I didn’t expect them to be as Amazing as they are, the shampoo I got suds from which I didn’t know if it would since it didn’t in my hands but once on my hair it did, when I rinsed it my hair felt clean, the conditioner I had amazing slip, my hair felt like silk honestly the best results I’ve had with my curly hair since I started my transition 2 years ago.

My first time in using a shampoo/conditioner bar. I’d say the only positive for me personally was the smell. The negative is that it didn’t bubble up for me or lather my hair as I’d like. I felt like my hair was still dirty after washing and the conditioner wasn’t enough for my hair.

This is my first time using a bar shampoo and conditioner. I have been cowashing for 2 years and now I’ve been using the bars for 3 weeks. I have to admit it’s changed the way I wash and condition my hair for life. The shampoo REALLY bubbles and really cleans my scalp. A little really does go a long way with the shampoo bar. The conditioner bar was a little awkward to start using. But once I got a good coat on it felt really nice and my hair soaked it up. My hair feels lighter and cleaner and takes to my styling products better. One thing I do say I’m not a huge fan of is the smell. It’s a little too earthy for me. Both the hydrate and growth bars smell exactly the same and earthy which I didn’t expect. I do wish the bars could be sold separately though. I know, just like bottled shampoo and conditioner, I’ll run through the conditioner faster - which always sucks.

A week into using Vida Bars, I can't believe the difference in my hair. I don't always go curly (it can be so much work), but Vida Bars seem to do the work of other products to moisturize and reduce frizz. I also love using bars for shampoo & conditioner. No more having to deal with travel bottles! They simply smell amazing and I love knowing they are so environmentally-friendly.

I love love this set! It’s my second time buying it and you CANNOT go wrong! The conditioner does not weigh down my curls, and the shampoo does not strip my hair but it moisturizes instead! I love this set!

I’ve tried the growth and now the hydrate bars. I really like both of them and have had great results for my wavy/curly hair that is on the fine side. The bars provide enough moisture without weighing my hair down. I have noticed some buildup on my scalp though after using the bars continuously for several washes. This happened with both the growth and the hydrate bar. For me, it’s an easy fix though as I use a low poo (but from a bottle) for one wash every 3-4 wash days to remove the buildup. Maybe I need to rotate with a clarify bar

Kept my hair soft and moisturized! My curls were really showing even without additional product!

I have been skeptical about shampoo bars - my hair is wavy-to-curly and tends to be very dry, yet easily gets weighed down and overmoisturized. In other words, it's sensitive and picky. I have gotten tired of fighting it with a thousand different products and trying to make it into something it doesn't really want to be (uniformly curly). Vida leaves my hair soft and shiny, with my natural mix of waves and curls. Afterward I use just a touch of moisturizing creme, and air dry or diffuse. I have a lot of silver hair and alternate shampooing with the Hydrate bar and a silver-brightening shampoo - I'm hoping Ana will make a silver-hair bar at some point so I can ditch that bottle too!

I had my first wash day with the Vida Bars this week. I love knowing I am using a product that is good for the environment and my hair! The scent is gentle and lovely. My hair felt clean and moisturized after my wash, and not weighed down at all! I will be a returning customer for sure. :)

I first purchased the Vida Bars balance set- I loved the smell and they left my hair clean and nourished, but didn’t pack the moisture punch I’m used to with other products I typically use. When Hydrate came back in stock, I bought them and am in love! Reducing waste is important to me, especially in my beauty routine. To find products that work just as well as my other options for cleaning my hair and leaving it moisturized while avoiding unnecessary plastic waste is a huge win in my book! I will be back again and again for these!

These are amazing, I was shocked how good the slip in the conditioner was for my hair. These quickly became my go-tos on wash day. The shampoo cleans well without drying out my hair and it is always shiny after and my bleached hair needs a lot of hydration. Highly recommend

I’ve tried other popular brands of shampoo and conditioner bars, but they stripped my hair terribly! And since starting CGM, I had kinda given up on finding a low-waste option that wouldn’t destroy my 2B-C waves. Enter: Hydrate Vida Bars! I’ve washed with them several times now and couldn’t be happier. They both smell heavenly, and the shampoo cleanses without leaving my hair and scalp stripped or dry, and the conditioner has AMAZING slip for detangling and moisturizing. I just can’t say enough good things about these bars, but they’re a new staple in my routine for sure! (I even told my partner that they can use my other hair products just so I can get rid of them, that’s how committed I am to these bad boys.) Thank you for filling such a huge gap in the market for natural, cruelty free, ethical zero-waste CGM products!

Very happy with my results from these bars! My hair is looking great. I love the added quinoa protein.

I have tried shampoo bars before and have never been happy due to the ph balance issues they caused. This is not the case with The Vida Bars. The very first use of these bars left my hair clean and hydrated. The shampoo bar has nice sudsing but it isn't overwhelming. A little goes a long way. I tend to double wash as I only use shampoo once per week. The conditioner bar took a little getting used to but once you figure it out, wow, it coats the hair nicely and really does moisturize. I followed the instructions and left it in while I did the rest of my shower routine and when time was up and I started to detangle, it was a breeze. I have used this set twice now and I have had amazing body and definition both times. Storing these bars is a breeze too. Just let them dry (don't store them in the shower) and pop them back in their bag or wrap up in some beeswax cloth. Bravo on your zero waste product! I will be repurchasing for sure!!!

These bars soaps are what i was just waiting for!!! I have my curls back! I've been trying to find the right products for my curls but no luck until now!!! I just can't wait until they become available again to order more, I don't want to run out!!! If you are looking for a product to hydrate your hair, this is the product to use. My niece tried them and she's hard to please because she said she has weird hair... she ended loving them too!!! You won't regret buying them!!!

I was so surprised to find how soft my curly hair was the very next day after using the bars. I normally do not use shampoo but only co wash. I would highly recommend this product to anyone. I look forward to seeing better and better results with each use.

Never tried shampoo or conditioner in bar form before but I may be a convert now! These all natural ingredients really rocked it for me. I’ll be buying more when they’re restocked!

Honestly went into using the Hydrate bars as a skeptic. I’d tried other brands of bar shampoo/conditioner and didn’t love the outcome. I was nervous my hair wasn’t going to feel moisturized by a “bar of soap.” I was so wrong. The hydrate bar duo made my hair so soft and smooth, even while still in the shower. I was able to fully detangle my knots and feel how moisturized my hair was. When my hair dried, it was soft and shiny but had curl definition. It is a bit of a learning curve to break the habit of pumping or squeezing the perfect amount of shampoo/conditioner. This took out all the guess work. So excited to order more!

I am very surprised at how much I love these. I’ve tried a bunch of different “hydrating” shampoo and conditioner bars, and they all dried my hair. These are truly moisturizing; my frizzy wavy hair felt so soft and looked great. I adore these bars!

These hydrating bars are so amazing! So easy to use and leaves your hair fealing so soft! My hair feels less frizzy and more defined. You dont know what your missing until you try it. It's like the shampoo and conditioner I never knew I needed!!
