What is my Organic Hair Creme or Rinse's shelf life?Updated a year ago

Our Organic Hair Rinse has a 1-year shelf life and our Organic Hair Creme has a 3-year shelf life from the date of manufacture. 

Rather than have a best-by-date, we have the manufacture date represented by a lot code located on the bottle right below the bottom of the label. 

The first two numbers of the code represent the manufacture year (ex: 20 = 2020, 21 = 2021). The following 3 digits represent the day of the year that the soap is manufactured (ex: 20241 = August 29, 2020). 

There are two different formats our Hair Rinse and Hair Creme lot codes are listed: 4- or 5-digit codes.

In 4-digit codes, the first number of the code represents the manufacture year (ex: 0 = 2020). 

In 5 digit codes, the first two numbers represent the manufacture year (ex: 20 = 2020, 21 = 2021). 

The following 3 digits (for both formats) represent the day of the year that the soap is manufactured (ex: 20095 = April 5, 2020). 

To decode your manufacture date quickly, reference our Julian Date Calendars.
