Nourishing Solid Natural Hair Conditioner Roundel
Nourishing Solid Natural Hair Conditioner Roundel
A super-concentrated solid conditioner handmade in our Malton, Yorkshire workshop from cocoa butter, coconut oil and sweet orange essential oil. Each 15g roundel gives 15 to 20 applications -- and because there is no water in the formula, a very little goes a very long way. Vegan, plastic-free, sulphate-free, palm oil-free and genuinely effective on all hair types including curly and grey hair.
What Our Customers Say
"The bar smells good enough to eat -- it reminds me of a certain confectionery treat that belongs to Terry. The orange fragrance is gorgeous and lasts for days. It works better than any conditioner I have ever purchased, leaving my hair smelling great and tangle free.

Why Solid? Why No Water?
Most liquid conditioners are 70-80% water -- you are paying for water, packaging and preservatives, not conditioner. Our solid roundel contains no water at all. The active conditioning and nourishing ingredients are present at full concentration, which is why such a small amount is needed and why the results are noticeably better than most bottled alternatives.
No water also means no need for the synthetic preservatives that liquid products require to prevent bacterial growth. The formula stays stable, safe and effective without them.
Key Ingredients
- Cocoa butter (Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter) -- deeply nourishing, rich in fatty acids and naturally protective. Gives the roundel its characteristic chocolatey base note and melts at skin temperature for easy application.
- Coconut oil (Cocos Nucifera Oil) -- penetrates the hair shaft rather than just coating it, genuinely improving strength and reducing breakage with regular use.
- Sweet orange essential oil (Citrus Sinensis Oil) -- fresh, uplifting, naturally cleansing fragrance. Steam-distilled from real sweet orange peel -- nothing synthetic.
- Cetrimonium chloride -- a naturally derived conditioning agent (from coconut) that detangles and smooths the hair cuticle. The active ingredient that makes conditioner work.
How to Use -- Less Is More
The most common first-time mistake is using too much. A very small amount is all that's needed.
- After shampooing, wet the roundel in warm water.
- Rub between your palms to emulsify -- do not apply directly to hair.
- Work the product through the mid-lengths and ends of damp hair, avoiding the roots.
- Leave for a minute or two, then rinse thoroughly.
- Comb through with a wide-toothed comb while rinsing for best detangling results.
Between uses, allow the roundel to dry fully in a well-ventilated spot. Keeping it dry extends its life significantly.
Brilliant for Curly and Grey Hair
Curly hair tends to be drier and more prone to tangling -- the cocoa butter and coconut oil combination is particularly effective for curl definition and frizz control without weighing hair down. Grey hair benefits from the gentle, sulphate-free formula and the nourishing oils, which help maintain softness and shine without the yellow cast that some products can leave.
Plastic-Free and Planet-Friendly
Each roundel arrives in a compostable glassine paper bag -- no plastic whatsoever. The UK uses an estimated 36 million plastic bottles every single day; solid conditioner bars like this one eliminate the need for plastic packaging entirely. Plastic makes up 80% of the waste found on beaches around the world. This is one small, easy switch that genuinely makes a difference.
Optional Travel Tin
Select the Conditioner with Travel Tin option at the top of this page to add a reusable tin -- ideal for keeping your roundel safe and dry in a gym bag, suitcase or on the bathroom shelf.
Complete Your Haircare Routine
For best results, use after our Natural Solid Shampoo Bar and comb through with our Bamboo Wide-Tooth Comb. Finish with a few drops of our Natural Hair Serum -- a water-free blend of argan, jojoba and castor oils with rosemary and lavender essential oils, clinically evidenced for hair strengthening and scalp health. Or get everything together with our Ethical Haircare Set.

Hi Teri, we're delighted you enjoyed the therapeutic aroma of our products! Thanks for sharing your experience. Best wishes
Absolutely love the conditioner - first time I used I was probably a bit over zealous with how much I used - but since the I’ve adopted the “less is more “ approach and my hair feels wonderful - I don’t colour my hair - totally grey and love it - conditioner works well for me and my hair feels wonderful, so glad I have found Cosy Cottage products.

Lovely products gentle smell and absorbs nicely and does not feel greasy
As a curly haired girl conditioner is essential.
The bar smells good enough to eat, it reminds me of a certain confectionery treat that belongs to Terry. The orange fragrance is gorgeous and lasts for days.
The first time using I put far too much product on as I applied directly to my hair and was left with heavy product filled hair which left a coating…however I learned my lesson.
I “lather” the product into my hands and apply to the mids and ends of my hair and leave for a few minutes before rinsing out.
Honestly it works better than any conditioner I have ever purchased leaving my hair smelling great and tangle free…again curly haired girl so an amazing feat without the need of 10 different products.
I have now binned every lotion and potion I owned in favour of the cosy cottage products and can’t envision turning back.
