Pros

The scalp is oily. The hair is dry. It is long hair with a perm. 🌵Hair condition After shampooing and using a treatment, the hair becomes extremely dry, and even after applying hair oil about ten times, it still feels rough and extremely dry. 😢 🌵Formulation A soft, nourishing water-based formulation. 🌵Spreadability It's a spray type, so a small amount is enough to apply to long hair. It doesn't run on the hair, and the water-essence formulation is quickly absorbed after spraying, so if you lightly massage it and then apply a leave-in treatment, the pairing is good, and you can feel a bit more nourishment, so I'm satisfied. 🌵Condition and effects after use Since I always maintain the perm, the hair is fluffy, so care products such as treatments, oils, and leave-in conditioners are essential. The Hwahae Protein Bond Water Essence is a water-type version of the existing cream-essence Protein Bond, so it has a lighter feel. If it seems insufficient, like me, adding a leave-in treatment or Hwahae Protein Bond will reduce the fluffiness and give the hair shine and elasticity. 🌵Irritation There is no trouble or redness, so I can use it with peace of mind.

Cons

i am using the product with satisfaction, so there is no particular disappointment.

Pros

The subtle fragrance is lovely. It's refreshing to try something new for the first time. The spray format makes application convenient.

Cons

It's a shame it's not a fine mist spray. My hair isn't in great condition, and this doesn't provide any dramatic effects. I don't think I'd miss it if I stopped using it.

Pros

Oh my goodness, this is incredible! I can't believe it! My hair was so damaged and a bit frizzy, but after using this, it's become completely smooth! It's legendary! Though my curls still act up when it rains (can't help that), my hair is much more manageable on regular days. The best part? I've been getting so many compliments on my hair since I started using this product - it's such a confidence booster! Someone even praised the lovely scent of my hair, and this was in the afternoon after I'd applied it the night before. Talk about long-lasting fragrance! Just a heads up, the scent is quite strong right after application - even my mom with her allergies could smell it clearly. If you're sensitive to smells, it might give you a headache. But for me, with my mild allergies, it's fine. Using this with the treatment is an absolute game-changer! Honestly, I almost want to keep this secret to myself. The performance is amazing, especially considering the price - such great value! My hair reaches my waist now, and once I thin it out a bit, it'll be perfect. This product works hard for your hair!

Cons

The spray nozzle is a bit too powerful, making it difficult to control the amount. You do get used to it though! Honestly, this seems to be the only drawback.

Pros

First of all, the scent is absolutely amazing! The generous volume means it lasts for ages. I'm already on my second bottle.

Cons

The only minor issue is that occasionally the opening gets a bit wonky, which can be a bit of a hassle.

Pros

My hair, bleached 3 times to a golden~platinum blonde (extremely damaged), feels lighter and softer, with less tangling when brushing. The scent is slightly citrusy, which I love (though my boyfriend says it smells like mango). I've used up a whole bottle and repurchased it!

Cons

It's not a heavy, nourishing type, so it doesn't fully tame very dry and frizzy ends on severely damaged hair (it helps a little though). If you're buying this to completely fix split ends, you might be disappointed!

Pros

It's affordable and great for a light spritz after washing your hair. The spray power is also decent.

Cons

The scent isn't a high-end fragrance, but rather a basic salon-like aroma. Not bad, though.

Pros

The floral and powder scent is delightful - it's so pleasant that I don't need to wear perfume separately. It's a subtle, lovely fragrance, which is refreshing compared to many harsh hair products out there. I've noticed a significant improvement in my hair texture. To test it, I tried drying my hair without using the product, and there was a clear difference. When I use it, my hair feels noticeably softer. Brushing is easier, and while the change isn't dramatic, I'm satisfied. It even helps control flyaways. What I love is that it doesn't leave my hair feeling sticky or weighed down. Some hair essences can make your hair look greasy if not applied correctly, but this one leaves my hair feeling light and fresh even when applied after drying. It's great for taming my frizz and keeping everything in place. While the regular price isn't cheap, you can get it at a good discount during Olive Young sales. I stock up when there's a buy-one-get-one-free deal. After using only ampoule-type essences, this spray format is a first for me, and it's so convenient! No product gets on my hands, and it's perfect for busy mornings. I love that I can easily use it before or after drying my hair.

Cons

The spray isn't a fine mist, so the product can sometimes come out unevenly. It can be a bit tricky to control the application.

Pros

The best thing about this essence is its lovely scent and how easy it is to use - you just spray it on. After applying, my hair feels smoother and easier to comb through, giving me a sense of improvement.

Cons

The only downside I've noticed is that the spray doesn't seem to distribute evenly. That's really my only complaint.

Pros

I spray this twice - once before drying and once after - and it makes my hair incredibly soft! I'm absolutely loving it!

Cons

The spray comes out in a bit of a sharp burst, and occasionally it might shoot onto your face... oops!

Tip

There's a new budget-friendly option at Daiso for just 3000 won. You might want to give that a try first!

Pros

After washing your hair, using this product provides a soothing effect for sensitive scalps. Applying it throughout your hair helps maintain overall hair condition.

Cons

Unlike other essences, this one leaves a subtle fragrance reminiscent of cosmetic products, which might be hit or miss for some users.

Tip

For best results, partially dry your hair with cool air, then spray the product and finish drying with hot air. This technique enhances the styling power and helps set your desired look.
