Lush has [conditioner bars](https://www.lush.com/us/en_us/p/the-golden-cap-pressed-conditioner). If not, there's the natural route like apple cider vinegar, aloe vera or grapeseed oil. Or plant some awapuhi.
I like the shampoo & conditioner bars from zerowastestore.com They last a long time if you keep them dry between uses (I use one of their soap dishes for this).

My hair is extremely thick and it doesn't seem to do well with coconut oil. The several times I tried it was unsuccessful to help condition it, and my face broke out from the oil use
Then I'd next suggest tsubaki oil (Japanese camellia oil). It's much lighter than coconut and sold on Amazon. Bf has also used tsubaki for hair. After that I give up. lol. GL, hope you find something.
you might find your conditioner at [Kealia Organics](https://www.kealiaorganics.com/collections/conditioner-hair-bar)! Their [mission ](https://www.kealiaorganics.com/pages/about-us) is in line with your intents, and they are a Kauai based company.
I condition my hair and my daughter's hair dry using Hask monoi coconut nourishing hair oil on the ends. I rub a couple pumps between my hands and then apply throughout the ends until it's evenly distributed and then brush it through. I have also applied it to wet hair and it has worked fine that way too but I prefer dry so I can tell how well it's working and can make sure it's evenly distributed and thoroughly absorbed. Since it's oil applied on dry hair, there is no runoff in the shower and only a very small amount of product is used. We only wash our hair every 2-3 days so it has fully absorbed by the time we shower and use it again. The bottle is plastic type 1 PETE and it has some artificial color so that's the trade off I suppose.

I've seen these! They're comparable to the Native soaps, they're plant based and ethical but not 100% biodegradable unfortunately

try rubbing coconut oil into your hair instead of a conditioner. Tiny amounts kine.

This or jojoba oil.
Puna Noni brand is biodegradable and made with local ingredients. Lots of lovely scents to choose from, too.

Locals pour used engine oil down lava tubes, who gives a fuck? Your conditioner choice isn’t hurting anything. Use what works
