Natural, Tear Free Kids Shampoo Bar

Bath time should be fun for kids, easy for parents, and free of chemicals. With our shampoo bar for kids, you get all that plus:

Leaves hair soft and tangle-free.
50+ washes per bar, saving you money!
No greasy-looking or feeling hair after washing.
Phosphate-free, chemical-free, plastic-free, and made in the USA (from the Sunshine State, baby!).

No Plastic Shampoo Bar & Compostable Packaging

For eco-warriors (like our founder), Tangie’s kids’ shampoo bar is a must-have. We package it in the smallest wrapper* possible because we hate waste—just a reminder of our commitment to reducing excessive product packaging waste.

Feeling spunky? Use the wrapper disposal as a teaching moment about composting! The paper wrapper can be composted in a home composter, buried in the ground, or tucked into a flowerpot. Since it’s made from paper, it can also go in your paper recycling bin. This is another great opportunity to talk to kids about the environment!

We are always looking for ways to minimize our packaging to lessen our impact on the environment. Product packaging shown in the images may differ from what you receive.

What Ingredients A Shampoo Bar For Kids Must Not Have & Why

When it comes to kids’ shampoo bar ingredients, we prioritize safety and health. Here are some harmful chemicals we avoid and why:

Synthetic Fragrances: These are often exempt from labeling requirements and are considered “trade secrets.” Without transparency, it’s impossible to know their components, which may include phthalates linked to asthma aggravation, headaches, allergic reactions, and potential long-term central nervous system disorders.
Parabens: Commonly found in many cosmetics as preservatives, parabens are suspected to have links to breast cancer. It’s crucial to avoid deodorants containing parabens, as they are applied close to the breast area daily over many years.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)/Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES): There are nearly 16,000 studies in the PubMed science library discussing the toxicity of these chemicals, which are prevalent in many shampoos, scalp treatments, hair color products, and more. Although derived from coconuts, SLS/SLES is anything but natural.
1,4-Dioxane: This known carcinogen often contaminates SLS/SLES during manufacturing. It’s essential to distinguish it from Dioxin, which is a different compound.
Propylene Glycol: Primarily used as a solvent, this ingredient can irritate the skin and may be linked to liver abnormalities and kidney damage.
Triclosan: Added to cosmetics as an antibacterial agent, Triclosan belongs to a class of chemicals known as chlorophenols and is suspected of causing cancer in humans.
Phosphates: While they can act as fertilizers, phosphates in our water systems lead to increased algae growth, depleting oxygen essential for healthy fish and aquatic life.

By avoiding these harmful ingredients, we ensure that our shampoo bar for kids is safe and gentle for your little ones.

My Promise to You

I can’t promise your kids will look forward to washing their hair, but I can promise that Tangie will be your partner in reducing your children’s exposure to toxic chemicals.

We aim to provide added value through product education and waste reduction while helping you feel confident about the ingredients you choose in areas that matter to you. Let us be your eco bodyguard!

Our hand-pressed and effective kids shampoo bar will effectively remove dirt from hair without stripping natural oils. It is 100% vegan, made with plant-based ingredients, cruelty-free certified by Leaping Bunny, and handmade with love.

I must emphasize the importance of good ingredients again! What goes in and around the body significantly affects overall health, so let’s make it a positive impact.

P.S. – The Tangie Kids Shampoo Bar is also safe for mommies and daddies to use too!

Joyce – December 16, 2024

My 4 year-old loves the watermelon scent and was super excited to use this shampoo bar. Makes a lovely lather. However, it is apparently pretty painful if it gets in eyes, and she was almost unwilling to try the bar again after that happened. I was able to talk her into looking up as I used a handheld shower to rinse, and having a dry washcloth handy to catch any dribbles from her forehead helped. The scent doesn’t linger and isn’t overpowering. She is much more interested in washing her hair now.

  Thank you so much for sharing your experience! 😊 We’re thrilled to hear that your little one loves the watermelon scent and that the lather made hair washing more exciting—what a win! We’re sorry to hear about the stinging in her eyes, though, and really appreciate you sharing the helpful rinsing tips for other parents.
  
  We’ve been exploring ways to make these bars with an even milder surfactant to reduce eye irritation. The trade-off we’ve found so far is that the lather becomes creamier rather than bubbly, and the cost increases. We’d love to hear your thoughts—would a creamier texture and slightly higher price be worth it for a gentler formula?
  
  Your feedback is so valuable to us as we continue to improve. Thank you for trusting Tangie to make hair care more fun for your kiddo! 💚

Super easy to apply, feels great and dries quickly

You might notice that your hair feels different the first time you use a shampoo bar, and that’s a good thing!

Embrace the change—your hair will thank you!

On wet hair, rub the bar onto your hair.

Lather & Rinse

Sit the bar down. Work up lather with your hands then rinse well.

Let it dry

Store the shampoo bar on a drying disk between uses to let it dry.

Frequently asked questions

Is your kids shampoo bar tear-free?

We would like to say our natural kids shampoo bar is ‘Tear-Free’ but that is a hard promise for any soap company to make! Anything that has a different pH from the eye and gets into the eye will cause the eye to tear up. We do not use harsh surfactants (NO SLS or SES) in our products so it will not irritate the eyes like most other shampoos.

What size is the bar? I want to make sure it is easy for my young one to hold on her own.

The round bar is 2.25″ round and .75″ thick and weighs 2 ounces.

Is the kids shampoo bar gluten-free?

Yes, it is. Tangie shampoo and conditioner bars are gluten-free.

My child has long hair and easily tangles, will this help reduce tangles?

Most likely yes! Because the sodium cocoa sulfate is a mild surfactant, it does not strip all the natural oils from the hair. This helps reduce the strands from tangling.

I've tried a shampoo bar on my kids hair in the past, it left it feeling waxy. What makes this bar different?

No. It sounds like the shampoo bar you used in the past may have been a sulfate free ‘soap’ bar, often marketed as a shampoo bar. That feeling can happen when a sulfate free soap bar is used as a shampoo. For long wavy, curly, or kinky hair a sulfate free soap bar can work well, but most kids benefit from a mild sulfate shampoo to clean their hair properly. The lack of sulfate can leave the hair feeling heavy/waxy/oily because it is essentially not stripping out any oils, it is only removing the dirt and odor. Tangie Kids Shampoo bar is made with sodium cocoa sulfate, a mild surfactant.
