The cleansing power was not bad. It felt well-cleaned and there was a refreshing feeling afterwards.
Cons
The small amount for the price and the small amount of water used, as well as the lack of lather when used, were disappointing.

Pros
This is the first shampoo that doesn't cause pimples on my scalp. I've been buying and using mild shampoos with good ingredients, but I've always had those pimple-like bumps on my scalp. But I happened to buy this during an Olive Young sale, and it's been great. The lather is not overly dense, but it lathers up nicely and softly. The cleansing power is good, so my hair has volume and rinses out cleanly, leaving a refreshed feeling. Normally I have to shampoo twice - once for the whole head and once more focused on the nape and upper ear area. But with this, one shampoo is almost enough. It turns out there are anti-dandruff ingredients in it, so even though the cleansing is effective, it doesn't dry out my scalp. That's why I don't feel the need to switch to a different Alpessine line and I'll likely keep repurchasing this Double Effect shampoo. The scent doesn't linger for too long, but it's not unpleasant like a men's skin care scent. It actually helps mask any scalp odor. I've tried various anti-hair loss shampoos before, but compared to those, I see way fewer hairs in the drain after washing. I'm not sure about the hair growth effect, but at least my hair isn't falling out as much, which is psychologically satisfying.
Cons
The only downside is the price. It would have been better if the size was 250-300ml instead of 200ml. For people with slightly less hair volume than average, based on chest-length hair, this 200ml size will likely last about a month if washed almost daily. For those with longer hair and more volume, it will probably last less than a month. At 15,000 won per month, it's not an inexpensive price - that's around 180,000 won per year just for the shampoo. While salon costs are understandable, haircare products shouldn't just be limited to shampoo. However, since there aren't many alternatives that I'm satisfied with, I'll likely continue purchasing this, either finding a better deal elsewhere or just accepting the current price for now.

Pros
This hair loss shampoo is considered to be on the higher end in terms of cleansing power. Caffeine seems to help with hair loss.
Cons
It appears to have slightly more of the undesirable ingredients compared to other hair loss shampoos.
Tip
For women, there is a separate women's line called Plantur, which is a caffeine shampoo. There are two options, Plantur 21 and Plantur 39, so choose the one that suits your age.^^

Pros
The cleansing power is great!! The cleansing power was definitely effective for my scalp, which is prone to seborrheic dermatitis and constant breakouts.
Cons
However, it does not seem to be very effective in soothing the skin and relieving itchiness.

Pros
It seems refreshing and has good cleansing power. The fragrance is surprisingly nice as well.
Cons
It's expensive. Though it's a bit cheaper if you buy it from Costco, I'm not sure if it's good for hair loss.

Pros
The cleansing power is excellent, and there is no residual oil on the scalp after use.
Cons
It requires lathering and waiting for 2 minutes for the active ingredients to be absorbed into the scalp, which can be slightly inconvenient.

Pros
The scent of a man lingers. It has excellent cleansing power, and after rinsing, it leaves a very refreshing feeling. After using it for several months, my hair hasn't gotten thicker, but at least it doesn't seem to be thinning out anymore. Once you start using it, you can't use anything else...
Cons
It's not easy to find a place to purchase. Only available through overseas direct purchase 😢 The lather doesn't form well, so you have to use more of it compared to other shampoos to get a good lather. The amount is not much, so you can't use it for a long time.
Tip
You need to leave it on for at least 5 minutes to see the effects
