Stem - Natural Shampoo and Conditioner Bar
Stem shampoo and conditioner bar is a premium, plastic-free solid that lathers big, rinses clean, and leaves scalps refreshed and ends soft, without residue. Made with just 7 clean ingredients (sulfate-free, silicone-free, phthalate-free, color-safe, cruelty-free), Stem is designed for oily, fine, color-treated, and sensitive hair types. Scents are naturally sophisticated (Coconut Hinoki, Santal Oak, Lavender Romarin, Aloe Tea Tree) plus Clear (unscented). If you’re comparing the best shampoo bars, Stem pairs salon-quality performance with minimal ingredients for results you can feel on day one.
What sets Stem apart is its innovative, deodorant stick like functionality and patented smart beeswax shell that keeps the shampoo and conditioner bar dry, grippy, and mess-free, no slip, no mush, no soggy dishes - plus a dual-use travel cap for true TSA-friendly portability. The entire system is plastic-free and compostable, aligning with eco-friendly/zero-waste goals while maximizing longevity.
Transform your routine with Stem Natural Bar Shampoo and Conditioner, pure, sustainable, and salon-quality care made for every hair type.

Frequently Asked Questions

30-Day Money-Back Guarantee
Not satisfied? Get every penny back — no questions asked. Try Stem for 60 days. If it's not everything you hoped for, reach out and we'll refund you 100%.
Do I need a conditioner too?
Stem isn't a shampoo — it's a 7-ingredient cleansing treatment with over 30% natural moisturizers built into the formula. It cleans, hydrates, and repairs in a single wash. 87% of users stop using conditioner entirely by week 2.
Most people feel softer, smoother hair after their very first wash. In some cases — especially if your hair has years of silicone buildup from traditional products — it can take a few extra washes for your hair to fully adjust and the results to kick in. That's normal.
Need extra moisture? Let the lather sit for 2 minutes before rinsing — it doubles as a deep conditioning mask.
Is Stem safe for color-treated hair?
Yes. In fact, it extends your color's life. Traditional shampoos use sulfates that roughen the hair cuticle, allowing color molecules to escape and fade. Stem is 100% sulfate-free and pH-balanced. We gently cleanse the surface without disturbing the cuticle, locking your color in longer than standard "color-safe" shampoos.
Is Stem suitable for all hair types?
Yes, because it adapts to your hair's needs. Whether your hair is fine, curly, oily, or dry, the biology is the same—it's the imbalance that causes issues. Stem restores homeostasis. Stem uses bio-mimetic ingredients that adapt to your hair’s needs: providing deep hydration for curls without weighing down fine hair. It restores your natural texture.
Oily Hair? It cleanses without stripping, stopping your scalp from over-producing oil to compensate.
Dry/Curly Hair? It delivers hydration directly to the cortex without heavy silicone coatings.

Made by us, shipped to you.
How do I use Stem?
What are the caps and bases of Stem made from?
Our caps and bases are crafted from a proprietary material made from spruce wood combined with other natural saps. This innovative blend creates a strong, durable, and completely biodegradable system for Stem, aligning with our commitment to sustainability.
Where do you source your ingredients?
We source our ingredients from a network of U.S.-based partners who provide ethically and sustainably sourced materials. The majority of our ingredients are grown in the United States and South America, ensuring high quality while reducing our environmental footprint.
