Steady Shampoo Bar
Steady was designed to be a part of r/wetshaving's 4th Annual Shave Against Suicide, which takes place September 12th. 50% of all profits on Steady sales from 8/16-9/12 will be donated to the JED Foundation.
"Steady" isn't just a word; it's the anchor of my life and career. It's my personal mantra, a constant striving to be an unfaltering, stabilizing presence for my family, my students, and everyone I encounter. Yet, "steady" holds another vital meaning: it's the signal to recognize when I become unsteady, when I'm overwhelmed, agitated, or neglecting my own well-being. It's a powerful call to seek support and prioritize my mental health, ensuring I can truly be present for others. This core principle is so essential to me that it's permanently etched onto my right forearm.
The opportunity to create a soap for r/wetshaving's Shave Against Suicide immediately brought "Steady" to mind. Its message of self-care and mutual support feels incredibly relevant in today's world.
The "Steady" scent journey begins with peach. Peaches, like us, are inherently vulnerable and easily bruised—a reminder of how fragile our pride, relationships, and health can be. But surrounded by a strong foundation, those vulnerabilities are mitigated. This led me to build the scent with cedar and black pepper as crucial supporting elements to the peach. From these three core notes, the fragrance expands with apricot, amber, and neroli. The final result is a beautiful scent that opens with the soft sweetness of peach, then gracefully transitions into a comforting blend of spicy and woody notes, embodying the strength found in support.
Shampoo bars are an all natural way to clean and nourish your hair. Our shampoo bars are capable of replacing both your shampoo and conditioner. To use simply rub the bar on the top of your head in a circular motion. Once a lather has developed work it into your hair and then rinse. If you're used to using liquid shampoo, it may take a couple of times to get used to the shampoo bar, but trust us, your hair will thank you.
