Hair care labels for shampoo, conditioner and styling bottles
Hair care bottles live in showers: water, steam, soap and wet hands. A paper label never survives. A waterproof BOPP label keeps colours and edges intact, and a finished surface wipes clean.

Good to know
Shower-proof labelling
Wet use
Waterproof film resists water, though continuous soaking is a harder test; test it.
Bottle curves
Round bottles hold wraps; flat-sided bottles take panel labels.
Salon sets
Retail and back-bar versions can share a layout in different sizes.
Instruction text
Directions use small type; check legibility at 100 percent.
Our recommendation
Material and finish
Gloss finish on white stock handles water best. Matte gives an upscale, calm look. Clear stock suits minimal brands with white ink.
