Tree Naturals Goes Green
A message from our CEO, Tree
How much conditioner do you use? As a curly haired girl, I realized that conditioner was the #1 product I used and boy did I use a ton of it; at least 2-3 bottles of conditioner per month to detangle my waist length hair. I would often think, "Wow, what a waste, there's got to be a better way."
And there was. Seven years ago I decided to do something about it and created the Tree Naturals Solid Conditioner Bar. At the time, this sort of thing wasn't really heard of and it took some time to catch on. My goal was to create a product that was formulated with good-for-you ingredients that actually worked for all hair types, would help save you time, money and to reduce our ecological footprint, but I realized we still dropped the ball by shrink wrapping and shipping them in plastic.
Your feedback is crucial to us and we’re happy to let you know that it's been 1 year since we eliminated the plastic shrink wrap from our Conditioner Bars. But it doesn't stop there, we are proud to announce that for the past 2 months we only ship our Conditioner Bars in padded paper mailers. Our conditioner bars are now 100% plastic free!
Did you know it takes plastic about 400 years to degrade?
How Does It Stack Up?
Besides being absolutely adorable these clamshells are:
- environmentally friendly
- are 100% recyclable and biodegradable! This means that even if your clamshell isn’t recycled, it won’t be sticking around very long
- The perfect temporary home for your bar
Our New Clamshells: 100% Recyclable & Biodegradable
- No bleach. No dyes. No glue.
- Made from recycled cardboard and paper.
- No PLASTIC shrink wrap
- #ZeroWaste
So how will we ship your bar?
- Each bar is wrapped in tissue paper (to keep your bar fresh and to absorb any oil).
- Our label is wrapped on the outside of the clamshell to keep it secure.
- Your bar is placed into a paper padded mailer for safe transporting on its way to you.
Wanna know how to use the bar?

While using PET bottles and bubble wrap for our other natural hair products still makes sense at this time, we wanted you to know that YOU MATTER to us and we heard you. Questions? Email us! or chime in below!
