Burt’s Bees was formed by single mother Roxane Quimby and a local honey bee grower named Burt in the state of Maine. They first came together to sell beeswax candles and honey through local craft fairs. Their joint venture became popular and today they are down in North Carolina with a thriving organic business that has products carried in most chain stores throughout the country.

Though the Burt’s Bees company now has a variety of organic products from lip balm, lip glosses and skin care it is here that we will concentrate on the hair care products that they have to offer.

All organic products are created based on a natural bar scale as defined by Burt’s Bees. The bar rating means that due to packaging some products may only be 99.9% natural, while other products can be 100% natural. The natural bar scale is used and listed on every product that they sell.

Organic Shampoos & Conditioners

The Burt’s Bees organic shampoo line consists of six products at the moment. All organic shampoos are created from a base of soy proteins with coconut and sunflower oils.

  • Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Shampoo/Conditioner - Made with grapefruit extract for gentle cleansing and sugar beet extract for strength. Honey, along with organic lemon, orange, lime and tangerine oils come together in this shampoo for a boost of long lasting shine.
