Current scalp condition: I have seborrheic dermatitis, folliculitis, and female pattern hair loss, making my scalp sensitive. Except in winter, it's oily, so if I skip washing for even a day, my scalp develops a strange odor and feels greasy. I've been told my crown looks a bit red, and I'm currently taking medication prescribed by a dermatologist. Ingredients: Given my scalp issues, even slightly harsh ingredients can irritate and upset my skin. I usually use Sidmool products, and this one, like their others, has gentle ingredients. I especially appreciated the biotin and tea tree components. Tea tree has always been effective for me, and I've been taking biotin supplements separately for hair loss. Despite my oily, problematic scalp, I experienced no irritation or dryness. Even though I'm prone to acne, sebum, dead skin cells, and dandruff due to seborrheic dermatitis and folliculitis, using this product doesn't make these issues feel prominent. I only 'occasionally' noticed small sebum particles without any other symptoms. Of course, these conditions require dermatological treatment, but the shampoo has helped reduce my stress, which is very satisfying! Cleansing power: Those with seborrheic dermatitis and oily scalps know the greasy feeling and scalp odor that develop after just one day without washing. This shampoo's superior cleansing power leaves my scalp feeling fresh. It rinses clean without any slippery residue. I recommend it for oily scalps, and it would be great for dry scalps in summer. Volume: At 400ml, which is rare among Sidmool shampoos, it lasts surprisingly long. With my current bob-length hair, one bottle has lasted nearly two months. Other notes: Despite its thin consistency and slightly acidic pH, it lathers well with just one pump. It's fragrance-free with natural, gentle ingredients, and has a subtle, natural tea tree scent that shouldn't bother most people unless they're very sensitive to smells. You can get a discount if you choose two products when purchasing. Severe stiffness and tangling: I've used Sidmool's Black Hair Dowon Shampoo and Dr. Troub Panthenol Shampoo before, but they didn't cause much stiffness or tangling despite their moisturizing ingredients. However, with this product, my hair starts to feel very stiff as soon as I begin rinsing. It becomes so stiff and tangled that it's hard to run my fingers through, forcing me to use a treatment mid-wash. After 2-3 weeks, it improved somewhat, and after two months, my hair seemed to adapt to the shampoo, significantly reducing the stiffness and tangling compared to before. Still, a treatment remains necessary. Dryness: The official description recommends this for 'unbalanced scalp and hair conditions, such as oily scalp and dry hair,' which perfectly describes my situation. However, after two months of use, I still experience some hair dryness. Fortunately, it's not severe, and while my scalp feels fine, my hair tends to feel dry. Price: Given that there are many other brands offering gentle, natural ingredient shampoos, 18,600 won for 400ml seems a bit steep. Using lukewarm water helps reduce the stiffness and tangling when rinsing, as well as the subsequent dryness. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinNov 4, 2020
I have an extremely oily scalp, but compared to other shampoos, this one seems to leave my hair feeling less greasy. It feels a bit stiff when washing my hair. After using it for a long time, I feel like it's not as effective as it was initially. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinJun 4, 2020
It really helped improve my oily scalp. For a natural shampoo, it lathers up surprisingly well. Usually, you need to wash twice to feel like you've cleaned your hair properly. It leaves hair feeling a bit stiff, so using a hair essence alongside it works best. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinNov 6, 2019
I've been using this for a month. I had high expectations, but I'm not sure how I feel about it... The texture feels very stiff. I usually skip conditioner or treatment, but with this shampoo, I find myself needing to use conditioner. After use, my scalp doesn't feel thoroughly cleansed. I'm having difficulties using it. Even after drying my hair, it doesn't feel refreshed, and it seems like my hair gets oily faster. For better cleansing effectiveness, I've been shampooing twice or using conditioner alongside it for the sake of my hair texture. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAug 4, 2019
I decided to try this based on a friend's recommendation, and I found the cleansing effectiveness wasn't bad at all. As someone with oily skin, I noticed it made my skin less greasy, which was pretty good. After washing my hair, it becomes so incredibly stiff that I absolutely have to use rinse or conditioner. It's not just a feeling of hair falling out - it's almost like the hair is breaking off. That's how severe the dryness is. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinApr 9, 2019
It gives your hair that squeaky clean feeling! Plus, it's silicone-free, which is great. It seems to absorb too much oil, leaving your hair feeling stiff and dry. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 24, 2019
My scalp is oily but not seborrheic, with hair loss and severe itching. My skin is prone to chronic acne, combination dehydrated, and rich in dead skin cells. This shampoo calms the itching without triggering acne on the skin. I'm trying to shampoo every other day due to hair loss, and this has enough cleansing effectiveness to use every 1.5 to 2 days. The reduced itching has also improved my hair loss situation. It makes my hair very stiff. Like most natural or gentle shampoos, you'll have to give up on silky, flowing hair. It seems even more effective for hair loss when combined with a jojoba oil scalp massage. If you have an oily scalp like mine, only do it for about five minutes. I noticed pimples appearing when I massaged for longer. - Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinDec 31, 2018
I love how refreshing it feels when applied. The ingredients are also quite good, which is a plus. It feels a bit pricey for the amount you get. After using it, my hair feels stiff. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinOct 4, 2018
I'm already on my third bottle of this product! I used to have a lot of red blemishes on my scalp and dandruff, but after using this, both issues have noticeably improved. When I had my scalp checked with a camera at the salon, it looked clean! The scent isn't great, it's a bit like petroleum? When I wash with this, I feel like my scalp odor returns faster than with other chemical shampoos. It also makes my hair texture slightly dry. Plus, it's quite runny, so there's a lot of waste. However, the scalp improvement benefits make up for these drawbacks. The Pyueste shampoo is slightly oily, so I think it's best to alternate between the two products. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinAug 9, 2018
Feels soothing on the scalp. Helps calm itchiness and reduces blemishes. Sometimes feels stiff. Occasionally, hair doesn't soften and can break, which is uncomfortable. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water rather than cold water for best results.
