What you'll do
In this workshop, you'll learn how to make your own eco-friendly solid shampoo and conditioner bars that are perfect for both hair and body. Led by expert soapmaker, Marla Bosworth, this hands-on experience will teach you the techniques needed to create these Lush-type bars that will last for up to 80 washes – the equivalent of nearly four bottles of liquid shampoo! Best of all, no packaging is required, making them environmentally friendly.
Don't worry if you're new to soapmaking; this class is designed for beginners and aims to alleviate any fears you may have about the process. Marla will guide you through step-by-step, providing an information-packed class handout with detailed instructions, recipes, and a valuable supplier list. By the end of the class, you'll have the knowledge and skills to recreate these bars at home.
Not only are these bars practical for everyday use, but they also make great travel companions. They won't get soggy in the shower and can be used by both women and men. Plus, as they are solid and compact, they're perfect for on-the-go adventures.
As a treat, you'll get to take home samples of the bars you made in class. Imagine the joy of using your own customized shampoo and conditioner bars, knowing that you're reducing waste and helping the environment. So come join us in this workshop and discover the art of making your own luxurious, eco-friendly hair and body care products.
(Note: This workshop is held in the Upper West Side of NYC.)
