Two sea slots on one axis

Question

I am trying to find a good way to build two distplots (from seaborn) on the same axis. This is not as beautiful as I want, since the histograms cover each other. And I do not want to use it countplotor barplotsimply because they do not look beautiful. Naturally, if there is no other way, I will do it this way, but distplotit looks very good. But, as said, the stripes now cover each other (see. Fig.).

Thus, is there a way to set the two frequency bands of the scatter per box so that they do not overlap? Or put the counts on top of each other? Basically I want to do this in the sea:

Any ideas on cleaning it are welcome. Thanks.

MWE:

sns.set_context("paper",font_scale=2)
sns.set_style("white")
rc('text', usetex=False)
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(7,7),sharey=True)
sns.despine(left=True)

mats=dict()
mats[0]=[1,1,1,1,1,2,3,3,2,3,3,3,3,3]
mats[1]=[3,3,3,3,3,4,4,4,5,6,1,1,2,3,4,5,5,5]
N=max(max(set(mats[0])),max(set(mats[1])))

binsize = np.arange(0,N+1,1)
B=['Thing1','Thing2']
for i in range(len(B)):
    ax = sns.distplot(mats[i],
                      kde=False,
                      label=B[i],
                      bins=binsize)

ax.set_xlabel('My label')
ax.get_yaxis().set_visible(False)
ax.legend()
plt.show()
