The scent is quite strong, and unfortunately, it's not a fragrance I particularly enjoy. If they could improve the scent, I'd consider repurchasing this product as it offers good value for money.

My hair tends to be quite dry due to frequent bleaching and coloring. My hair designer suggested using a water-based product rather than an oil-based one, so I decided to try this lightweight option!

First off, I love that it's so easy to apply with a spray. The spraying power is pretty good too. It's great that I don't have to get my hands messy when applying it!

It does a decent job of taming my hair and leaves it feeling nicely hydrated.

I think it's a good value for the price.

아쿠아 단백질 본드 워터 에센스

I don't have any complaints yet! If I had to nitpick, I wish they'd come out with refill options... Are there any? I haven't seen any refills available yet. Refills, please!

My hair was on the brink of total destruction from frequent coloring, but everyone around me kept recommending this product, so I gave it a try. While a deep treatment would be ideal, when you're really pressed for time, just spraying this on before drying your hair makes it incredibly manageable. I absolutely can't recommend it enough!

It might be a humble tip, but it's really handy to transfer some into a small spray bottle from Daiso to carry around!

However, the scent might be a bit divisive. Even though I've used up a whole bottle and bought a new one, the fragrance isn't particularly pleasant. It has that distinctive salon smell. I wish it had a more refreshing scent.

I only use this mist because cream formulas are cumbersome and unfamiliar. I've finished one bottle and bought a new one - I'm very satisfied. It's great for taming frizzy hair without making it sticky. I especially recommend this for people with curly hair that's hard to manage.

It's all about the scent... I'd like to apply it generously for better effectiveness, but the fragrance is so overpowering that I end up just spraying a bit on my palm and dabbing it on the ends of my hair.

The spray-type application is convenient, but the scent is quite strong, so I can't apply too much. The fragrance is very intense. It does fade quickly, but I'm hesitant to spray it liberally.

If you use it too often, the effect diminishes, and your hair can still feel dry and tangled. It works best when alternated with other essences.

The scent is too artificial, like a strong salon smell. It's fine at first, but suddenly it becomes nauseating. Unlike other essences, it seems to lose its effectiveness with daily use.

I love hair essences, and I'm on my third bottle of this product. After using it, my hair feels incredibly soft and doesn't tangle. It's also great for preventing static electricity.

for portability, the tube essence type is actually better.

It can be slippery if it falls on the floor. When applying, hold your hair close to the ends and spray carefully to avoid getting it on your scalp.

I love how easy it is to spray without getting it on your hands. It feels soft and velvety as soon as you apply it. After using regular essences, I tried this spray type - it's convenient, but

The spray nozzle could be a bit softer, but overall the product is good.

It's great for use in dorms, and I love how the spray covers a wide area.

There's not really anything to complain about, but if I had to nitpick, I'd say it runs out quickly when you're spraying away. The amount is a bit on the small side.

It's definitely convenient since you don't have to get your hands messy - just spray and go. My hair instantly becomes softer. The spray power is great, making it easy to apply. I've been using it consistently since I first tried it.

The scent is quite polarizing at first, though you get used to it over time. The moisture in your hair doesn't seem to last as long as expected.

It's great for light use. The best advantage is that you can easily apply it without getting the product on your hands.

My hair essence routine:
Towel dry -> Apply hair oil -> Blow dry with cool air from roots -> Apply a small amount of hair oil -> Finish blow drying -> Spray essence
When applying the essence, I spray from a distance near the roots and apply 2-3 sprays on the ends, then brush through.

1) Spray mechanism
While it sprays easily with a light pull, it often comes out in clumps at first. It's best to spray on a tissue first before applying to your hair for even distribution.
2) Lasting power
If it's windy outside after application, the essence can sometimes harden and create clumps in your hair. People with thick hair may need to apply more product thoroughly for it to last. Otherwise, the inner layers can become dry and frizzy again.

1) Price
Many hair essences are quite expensive, but this one offers great value for money in terms of quantity and quality. You can use it without breaking the bank!
2) Scent
It's unscented, but if you spray a lot, there's a subtle, cozy fragrance. It reminds me of fabric softener. I love how it leaves a delicate scent in my hair.
3) Packaging
I appreciate the on/off switch at the bottom of the spray nozzle, which prevents accidental spraying.
4) Effectiveness
My hair has been bleached twice and dyed once, leaving it very dry and difficult to brush without tangling. After spraying this essence and brushing, my hair becomes smooth and easy to manage. With consistent use, I've noticed my hair becoming stronger.

For best results, wrap a towel around your neck before spraying, then blow-dry your hair. It works wonders!

If the spray touches your skin, it can cause blemishes or pimple-like bumps to appear... The spray doesn't come out as a fine mist, but more like a direct stream? It feels like it shoots out in a straight line. If it gets on the floor, it becomes very slippery, so you must wash your hands thoroughly... It's really slick.

When applied before blow-drying, it noticeably reduces frizziness and makes hair easier to comb through. I'm quite satisfied with the fragrance too. I've even had people ask if I've been to the salon a few times after using it!

The fragrance is too strong. I think a more subtle scent would be sufficient. Also, the spray bottle feels a bit cheap. I wish it had a finer mist-like spray.

I bought this because my hair was feeling dry and brittle. It seems to be making my hair more moisturized.

I wish the spray mist was a bit finer, but other than that, I have no complaints.

It's incredibly hydrating and leaves my hair feeling silky smooth. Perfect for a quick spritz during the hot summer months.
