Classic Shampoo

Classic Shampoo is a liquid hair cleanser for everyday use. It is applied to wet hair and worked into a lather to lift dirt and oil from the hair and scalp, then rinsed out with water. Many people follow it with a conditioner. At Dekenet Al Nes, a package-free grocery store in Baaqline in the Chouf, Lebanon, this shampoo is sold by weight, so customers can bring their own bottles or containers and refill them at the shop. Refilling the same bottle instead of buying a new one each time helps cut plastic waste and single-use packaging. Dekenet Al Nes is a solidarity initiative started by a group of young Lebanese people in response to the economic crisis that began in 2019, with the aim of making basic necessities affordable while reducing environmental costs.
