Pros
I have a scalp that tends to get hot easily, leading to quick buildup and lots of dead skin cells. When I'm not feeling my best, I'm prone to blemishes too - it's quite sensitive, unfortunately! I previously used Dr. For Hair's basic line, but this time I wanted to try switching up my shampoo, so I did some research. The Phytotherapy shampoo has a fresh lemon scent that's subtle enough to be universally appealing. I was pleased to find it lathers up nicely too. When I tried it, even with my sensitive scalp, it didn't cause any irritation or blemishes, which I really appreciated.
Cons
The cleansing effectiveness was weaker than I expected. It doesn't quite manage to control oiliness! If you have oily hair, it might get greasy again pretty quickly.

Pros
Among all the shampoos I've used so far, this is the only one that doesn't cause itchiness, and my dandruff has significantly reduced.
Cons
Even after washing my hair, it still feels matted and clumped together. And there's no volume to it.

Pros
My hair felt oily and moisturized, even though it's normally dry.
Cons
When using this cosmetic product, I experienced citrus-related side effects on my scalp. After using it, my hair started falling out excessively, and the dandruff wouldn't go away no matter how many times I washed my hair. Even though I normally have a lot of hair, using this product cut my hair volume in half and caused severe dandruff. I don't have to wash my hair for two days, but after using this, my hair feels greasy after just one day. I bought it because the ingredients were supposed to be good, but it just doesn't work for me. This was the worst shampoo ever.

Pros
It was great that the product cleansed the oil well without causing any dryness on my scalp! Since my scalp is somewhat normal-to-dry and not too oily, I've never felt comfortable using shampoos before, but this product made my scalp feel so refreshed and comfortable. The symptoms of tightness and itchiness on my scalp have completely disappeared!! Even though I used to feel my scalp itching when using products with strong cleansing power, this one cleanses well without causing such issues, which I really appreciate. The lather is also nice and fluffy! ps. Strangely, after switching to this shampoo, I've been getting a lot of compliments on the condition of my hair, which makes me really happy. I have virgin hair without any coloring or perms, so I don't use any separate treatments or hair essences! (I guess my hair looks better just because I don't do anything to it...)
Cons
When using this in the sweaty summer, my hair starts getting greasy from the evening onwards... It could be because I wash my hair at night, but if you have an important appointment in the evening or late at night on a hot day, this might be a concern. The price is a bit high.. But I still think it's worth trying it out!
Tip
If you look around social commerce sites, you can sometimes find this product at a lower price than the official website!!

Pros
1. The lather is absolutely fantastic. Even with just 1/2 a pump, it can cover your entire head and still have some left over. The fact that a small amount can provide sufficient coverage is a great advantage. 2. It is definitely mild. Since it boasts being gentle, it is indeed mild. But this mildness can actually become a drawback...
Cons
The milder it is, the weaker the cleansing power. When there is a lot of oil in the hair, there is a tendency for more hair loss. After washing the hair and waking up, you can see hair strands scattered around, more so than when using other shampoo products. It's also common for the hair to become greasy again by the evening after washing in the morning.
Tip
The person is in the military, so they are only eating healthy meals three times a day, and their hair has less oil than usual. Or they have to wash their hair again in the evening after washing it in the morning, out of necessity. They have already purchased this product, so they plan to use it as a supplementary shampoo. As a main shampoo, it falls short, which is why they give it a 3-star rating.

Pros
When the Dr. For Hair brand was just starting to gain popularity, I was curious and bought it to try. It turned out to be quite decent, and I've been using it for over a year now. I used to struggle with seborrheic scalp, and now I have an oily scalp with constant itchiness. When using the product, there is very little irritation, it lathers well, and it leaves a decent amount of moisture after rinsing. While it's a scalp shampoo, the hair feels soft after use, which is a plus. It's often sold in discounted bundles of 3, so it's not too expensive either.
Cons
However, it doesn't seem to be enough to control the oily sebum on my scalp, especially in the evenings. Even after double-shampooing with this, the oil still comes back by the evening, and there's a slight itchiness as well.
Tip
For those with oily, sebum-prone scalps, it might be best to use this as a pre-shampoo and then follow up with a more oil-removing shampoo for a double-cleansing routine.

Pros
While living in the clean countryside and being accustomed to good water, my hair began producing an enormous amount of dandruff when I returned to my family home in the city, as if it had received considerable stress. Despite my scalp being oily, there was severe dandruff from the hairline down when I washed my hair, and when I closely examined the part, the dandruff was hanging there, causing me immense stress. I tried using my father's anti-hair loss shampoo randomly, thinking I had ruined my hair, and also tried using other shampoos I had used in the countryside, but there was no sign of improvement. After much deliberation, I was recommended the Dr.FORHAIR products by my sibling, and I chose the Phyto Therapy over the Cool Shampoo. I had wanted the product and it was on sale, so I happily added it to my cart and checked out. (It was my mistake for not checking the volume.) The price was high for the amount, but I thought this could be my life-changing shampoo, and when would I ever try an expensive one again, so I just used it. The fragrance was really to my liking. I usually prefer fresh scents like tea tree and eucalyptus, and this had such a fragrance. The shampoo formula was transparent and quite thin, so it lathered well. Since my hair is long and oily, the shampoos at home are mostly thick, so they don't lather as well and I have to wash my hair more than twice. But the Phyto Therapy's thin formula made it easier, so using a shampoo brush was also convenient. My father's anti-hair loss shampoo would leave my hair feeling stiff after washing, but the Phyto Therapy shampoo didn't seem to forcefully strip away the oils, leaving my hair feeling slightly soft... or rather, not completely stripped of oil. It's up to individual preference.
Cons
The main problem is that the dandruff did not go away. As I've been using it, I've realized that it's not even preventing new dandruff from forming, which is frustrating. Thinking about the stress this shampoo has caused makes me want to give it a good smack. Not only did the dandruff not go away, but the lack of proper oil removal also caused my hair to get greasy very quickly. It would get greasy within a day, which was unusual for me. And when it got greasy, oh boy... the dandruff would just keep coming back, making my scalp itchy. It was truly agonizing. I'd even wake up from my sleep because my scalp was so itchy. I feel bad for putting my poor hair through this, using up the whole bottle. As my hair became unstable, I even ended up getting pimples on my scalp. It's been years since I've had that happen... Brushing my hair and scratching my head was a real struggle. I mentioned earlier that the fragrance was good, but it practically disappears as soon as I wash my hair, so you can really only enjoy the scent yourself. And I wish the packaging was a bit different. The shampoo dispenser is too short, so people using just one hand to apply the shampoo will likely end up spilling half of it back into the bottle.

Pros
Sensitive, oily scalp (with abundant hair) has no advantages. My scalp is in poor condition and sensitive, but I have abundant hair and good hair quality. After using this shampoo, the cleansing power was weak and my scalp became much worse, which was a struggle. For a scalp like mine, the Doctor Forhair Polygen shampoo is a bit better.
Cons
This shampoo doesn't suit my sensitive, oily, combination scalp at all. The cleansing power seems weak, as my scalp became extremely itchy after washing. After using it for over 2 weeks, my scalp was covered in wounds ㅜㅜ It caused a terrible dandruff outbreak. I have more than 1 bottle left, but I'm at the point of having to go to a dermatologist... My husband has a slightly thinning scalp, but he didn't experience any itchiness. Instead, he says his hair gets greasy by 3 PM. Consider a sensitive, combination scalp when purchasing.

Pros
Since I have sensitive skin, I was looking for a shampoo that is as non-irritating as possible, and that's how I came across Phyto Therapy. First of all, I'm really satisfied that it's not irritating and is gentle. The fragrance has a slightly refreshing scent when washing your hair, but it seems to disappear quickly. The lather is really great.
Cons
My hair gets greasy faster than expected, and the fragrance doesn't last long. I think people will have mixed opinions about it.

Pros
I usually have a lot of hair loss, so I've tried various shampoos, and I've come to like this one. First of all, I feel that the lather is good and it's not too watery, and that's what I like about it.
Cons
After using this shampoo, my hair became very tangled and my scalp became itchy. Also, I got a pimple on the crown of my head, so I think this shampoo doesn't suit me.
Tip
Before washing my hair, I brush it and don't apply the shampoo directly. Instead, I lather it up with my hands first, then focus on washing my scalp. Finally, I rinse it out with cold water. Doing it that way, my hair falls out less.
