How to apply the conditioner bar

How to Use Tangie Conditioner Bars

Tangie Conditioner Bars are versatile, effective, and easy to use. Whether you prefer a traditional in-shower application, a leave-in treatment, or even a spray-on conditioner, this bar adapts to your hair care routine. 🌱✨

Basic Application

Step 1: After shampooing, hold the bar in your hand and swipe it on your hair in a downward motion. 🧼
Step 2: Focus on coating your strands evenly. 💆‍♀️
Step 3: Leave the conditioner on for a couple of minutes to let it work its magic. ⏱️
Step 4: Rinse thoroughly and enjoy refreshed, silky locks. 💧

For Long Hair:
Try the “two low ponytails” method!

Part your hair down the middle.
Pull each section over a shoulder.
Swipe the bar down each section for even coverage. 🪮

Versatile Options for Every Routine

In-Shower Rinse

Swipe the bar directly onto your hair, working in a downward motion along the hair shaft.
Let it sit for a minute or two before rinsing. 💦
Alternatively, rub the bar between your hands and apply the conditioner from your palms to your hair.

Pro Tip: The bar feels slick, but don’t worry—it’s conditioning your hair even if it doesn’t feel heavy. Swipe and rub as needed for full coverage. 🌟

In-Shower Spray

Turn your conditioner bar into a liquid for easy application!

Cut the bar into four pie-shaped wedges. 🔪
Add 8 oz of water and one wedge to a small pan.
Heat until nearly boiling, then turn off the burner and stir until dissolved (about 5 minutes). 🍲
Cool and pour into a spray or pump bottle. 🧴

Pro Tip: For a thicker liquid conditioner, dissolve an additional wedge during the process. Shake your bottle before each use as settling may occur. 💡

Leave-In Conditioner

Perfect for taming frizz or deep conditioning!

Light Application: On damp or dry hair, rub a softened piece of the bar between your fingers and apply to your tips or frizzy areas. 🌬️
Deep Conditioning: Apply a thick layer to all your hair, leave on for 20–30 minutes, and rinse thoroughly. ⏳

How to Soften Your Conditioner Bar

Soften the bar for a creamy, mousse-like consistency:

Place the bar in a lidded container, ensuring it has room to expand. 🫙
Add enough water to submerge the bar. 💧
Let sit for 24 hours, flipping it halfway through for even absorption. 🔄
Adjust the water amount to achieve your preferred consistency.

Texture Tip: The softened bar will feel like thick cream cheese—ideal for leave-in and deep conditioning! 🧴✨

Why Less Is More

Tangie Conditioner Bars are highly concentrated, so a little goes a long way. 🌟 Unlike traditional conditioners, you don’t need to over-apply. Start with a small amount and adjust based on how your hair feels once dry and styled. 💇‍♀️

What ingredients we don’t use and why

SYNTHETIC FRAGRANCES are exempt from labeling requirements and regarded as “trade secrets”. There is no way to determine what the individual ingredients are, and may include phthalates. These have been linked with aggravation of asthma, headaches, allergic reactions and possible long term central nervous system disorders.
PARABENS Found in many cosmetics as a preservative. Suspected link between parabens and breast cancer. Be sure to avoid deodorant containing parabens since it’s applied close to the breast area, every day for many, many years.
SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE (SLS)/SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE (SLES) There are nearly 16,000 studies in the PubMed science library about the toxicity of this chemical that can be found on the SLS page on Environmental Working Group’s (EWG) website. It is present in nearly all shampoos, scalp treatments, hair color and bleaching agents, toothpastes, body washes and cleansers, make-up foundations, liquid hand soaps, and laundry detergents. Although SLS originates from coconuts, the chemical is anything but natural.
1,4-DIOXANE Any discussion of SLS/SLES must include a discussion of 1,4 dioxane because the manufacturing process of SLS/SLES results in its being contaminated with 1,4 dioxane—a known carcinogen. (NOT to be confused with Dioxin)
PROPYLENE GLYCOL Primarily used as a solvent and an aid to absorption through the skin. The main concerns are that this material may be a primary skin irritant and there are possible links to liver abnormalities and kidney damage.
TRICLOSAN Primarily added to cosmetics as an anti bacterial agent. It belongs to a class of chemicals known as chlorophenols, and is suspected of causing cancer in humans.
PHOSPHATES Phosphorous is like a fertilizer in our water system. It increases algae and aquatic weed growth, the oxygen needed for healthy fish and aquatic life is depleted.

My promise to you

I am not promising you Rapunzel head of hair. What I do promise is that Tangie will be your partner in a better hair care routine that does more than just add value to your head. We can and want to give you added value through product education, and waste reduction, while helping you grow your confidence about the ingredient you choose in the areas that matter to you. Let us be your eco-guide throughout your home, starting at the top.

Our fabulous, ultra-luxurious conditioner will soften and nourish your tresses naturally without weighing them down. It is 100 percent vegan with plant-based ingredients, cruelty-free certified by Leaping Bunny and handmade with love. I can’t help mentioning the good ingredients thing – again. It really is important! I believe what goes in and around the body affects the body, so let’s make it a positive effect.

PS – Tangie conditioner bars contain no phosphates, dyes, or artificial fragrance. Not sending these types of ingredients down the drain is better for our waterways and aquatic life. (insert collective cheer of joy from all the world’s ocean dwellers)

Lisa – July 22, 2024

Tangie conditioner bars are more creamier than others I have tried. I am able to fully coat my hair.
Citrus is my favorite. The smell is light and not overwhelming. Combing out my long hair is easy.
My husband likes to use it for his beard.

Dianne Brooke – June 18, 2024

Having not used commercial hair care products for about ten years, just teas and clays, I was curious several years ago when I was going to go out traveling, about shampoo bars that could get through security. I tried numerous ones and didn’t like how dry they left my hair. SO, when I found Tangie recently (I’d had a bout of some weird thing with my scalp and had prescription stuff and needed something a bit “more”) and ordered the shampoo bar, I also got the conditioner bar to hopefully counteract the expected dryness from washing. Never used to use conditioner because my hair is oily. HOWEVER, the shampoo bars DID NOT dry my hair. Using the conditioner bar sparingly has been PERFECT on my graying locks without weighing them down! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you
- Angie Ringler – June 24, 2024
  
  So happy you found us (and Tangie conditioner bars) – welcome to the Tangie family! Thank you for mentioning that a little goes along way – we can’t stress that enough. That’s why our conditioner bars last for months, even with daily use. thank you for taking the time to leave this detailed review. xo Angie

I love this bar!!! I use it every time I wash, plus periodically use it as a leave in overnight conditioner. I have curly/wavy hair and it gets really dry in the summer. This has helped tremendously!
- Aishwarya – May 10, 2024
  
  Thank you Sharon for taking time to write a review about our conditioners. We love that you are using it as a leave in overnight to get maximum benefits of the bar.

Ash – January 4, 2023

Been using their conditioner bar for over 8 months now and my favorite scent is Rosemary Mint and Citrus one.
Rosemary mint conditioner feels so spa like when used on the hair and has an incredible fragrance and the mint has a soothing effect on the scalp. The citrus one is feels summer like. I love citrusy fragrances and this fits perfectly in terms of fragrance and conditioning. It doesn’t make your hair feel greasy after use. And lastly I have been using these two bars alternatively for the last 8 months and they are totally value for money. Bye Bye nasty plastic bottles.

Frequently asked questions

Can your conditioner bar be turned into liquid conditioner?

Yes it can be. Directions: Simply cut the bar in half 4 times to create 8 pie wedges. Afterward, add 8 ounces of water and one piece of the conditioner bar to a small pan. Heat up the mixture until it’s almost boiling then remove it from heat. Stir occasionally until everything is dissolved; this usually takes about 5 minutes. Once it has cooled, pour the liquid into your spray bottle or pumper for dispensing in the shower.
Read more details HERE about the about many ways to use a Tangie Conditioner bar.

Do I need to soften or soak the conditioner bar before use or can I use it as a solid bar?

You can use it both ways. It can used as a leave-in or rinse out conditioner. There is more than one way to use a Tangie conditioner bar. 😃 Some people like the soft, creamy consistency. Others prefer to use it as a solid bar by swiping the bar over wet hair and then rinsing it out. Details on the several ways to use a Tangie conditioner bar can be found in the HOW TO USE THE CONDITIONER BAR at the top of this listing and in this blog HERE about how to use a Tangie Conditioner Bar.

What is behentrimonium methosulfate and why does Tangie use it in conditioner bars ?

Behentrimonium methosulfate might sound like a mouthful, but it’s actually a super gentle, plant-based emulsifier that we use in our conditioner bars. It’s derived from rapeseed (Brassica napus Linnaeus), which is a natural, non-toxic source. We totally get that some ingredients with long names can feel a little intimidating, but rest assured, we’re all about creating waste-free products without harmful chemicals or toxins. You’re in good hands with Tangie!

Here is some science of Behentrimonium Methosulfate:

It is a quaternary ammonium salt. Generally found in hair conditioners to provide anti-static properties and as a conditioning agent. DO NOT confuse Behentrimonium Methosulfate with Behentrimonium Chloride, which is toxic.

Behentrimonium Methosulfate is an example of an quaternary ammonium ingredient that contains the sulfate compound (SO42-), but due to it being a cationic surfactant, the chemical process to produce this ingredient is less irritating and creates a more neutral/stable compound. As a matter of fact, this particular ingredient has the ability to impart some great conditioning properties to the hair by increasing slip and aiding in closing the cuticle, due to its cationic nature. This is just one example of a no-no ingredient that has some beneficial attributes, when used in the right context.

Why isn't my conditioner bar lathering?

Great question! Unlike shampoos, which are made to clean and lather up with those bubbly suds, conditioners work a little differently. They’re all about smoothing, moisturizing, and hydrating your hair, so there’s no need for foam. Lather usually comes from surfactants in shampoo, which help remove dirt and oil. Conditioners, on the other hand, focus on nourishing your hair without the bubbles. So, no lather just means your conditioner is doing its job!
