It would make (especially international) travel so much easier.

ktglads said:I generally just travel with a handful of the travel/trial sized bottles in a ziplock bag and have not had any problems. Its nice since I can jsut throw the bottles out when they are done and really don't feel bad about leaving them in a hotel if they aren't 100% empty. I have never had an issue with shampoo spilling, even in the ziplocks
MdmMim said:The Basin at DTD sells shampoo bars, which work great. No conditioner is needed. My hair is shoulder length, and I have no problems with the bars. Easy to pack and no worries about spills in luggage.
I have not heard of the dehydrated shampoo.
Chickysmom said:I know they make and sell a powdered shampoo....just check local stores like Walmart and Target. Or give your local beauty supply store a call, I'm sure they can point you in the right direction. Won't you be staying in a hotel? they should have personal items for you there won't they? Just curious. I went to Japan for two weeks and still broiught my own conditioner, but used their shampoo and worked great! In fact, most hotels use a bulk dispenser there for shampp, conditioner and body wash....no little bottles to toss!
Kycha said:Check out www.lush.com. They sell solid shampoo bars and tins. Perfect for travel. Their products are all handmade and smell wonderful. They also have a store in the Orlando airport.
Kycha said:Dawn,
I have tried it and it works very well. I find it works as well as bottled shampoo. Just make sure to keep it in the tin when not in use, because it does dissolve quickly. They sell about 15 different varieties. So, you can easily find something for your hair type. I use the Irresistible Bliss bar and I think it smells like heaven. I have easily ordered product online and over the phone.
Have a great trip. I am totally jealous.

DawnM said:Oh, wait, do you know where ELSE you can get them? I am not heading to Disney this time. And what is the brand?
Thanks,
Dawn
MEM said:"Basin" IS the brand and you can also buy them on line at the Basin website. I can vouch for these shampoo bars as the way to go! There is even a chocolate-scented one.
Sorry, Dawn, I have not tried BB's shampoo bars. I have tried some of their other products and have always been satisfied. I notice that their shampoo bar is gentle enough to use on a baby's face, body and hair. Sounds like a good product to me.DawnM said:Kycha,
Have you tried the Burt's Bees shampoo bars? I have been reading and many have said that BB bars last forever.
I found BB products cheapest at drugstore.com. And they include free shipping on orders over $25.
