It doesn't necessarily feel like it cleanses better than the Sea Salt version. Instead, the main sensation is a refreshing coolness on the scalp.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much lather this produced! It actually foams up better than the original Scalp Sea Salt shampoo.

피토프레시 스칼프 두피스케일러

After about half a day, it starts to smell a bit and feels like it's making my hair greasy, so I stopped using it regularly. You need to be careful with how much you apply.

It's great for occasional use on oily scalps. Applying it once or twice a week to a heated crown or itchy scalp really cools things down and eliminates the itchiness.

Oh no... I wrote that it was good, but what about the ingredients? It's a shame the ingredients aren't as gentle as I'd hoped.

Reason for purchase: I noticed a significant increase in dandruff, so I bought this product. With my dyed hair, I could see dandruff on the parts that weren't fully colored every time I ran my fingers through it, which was really bothersome. Plus, the smell from my scalp... it was concerning. I also had some scalp heat issues. I didn't want to use anti-dandruff shampoo because it makes my hair too stiff. Since this product can be used before shampooing, I decided to give it a try!

Review after use: First, you apply it directly to the scalp before shampooing and massage it in thoroughly with your fingers. It doesn't lather much, but you can feel it working due to its unique cooling sensation. The dandruff has significantly decreased, haha! As for the scalp odor... I'm not sure if there's been a change. Same goes for the scalp heat... hard to tell. But I'm quite satisfied with the reduction in dandruff! I no longer feel embarrassed or worried when running my fingers through my hair.

It's expensive... and the amount is so small that it's empty after 5-6 weeks...

After spending 30-40 million won on scalp treatments for exfoliation and hair loss over 9 months, I decided to find a more affordable self-care option. I tried every dead skin cell care product at Olive Young and online before settling on this one. Unlike other scalp scaling products that left itchiness or dead skin cells under my nails, this one works consistently without such issues. I've attempted to switch to cheaper alternatives about 10 times, but always come back to this. I've now used over 20 bottles!

I don't use it daily, but rather when I feel like there's a lot of sebum buildup on my scalp.

The texture is quite thick, similar to a concentrated ampoule, so you need to squeeze the tube with some force. However, it doesn't drip or run, which might be seen as an advantage for some users.

It effectively removes sebum buildup from the scalp and hair roots. Even when I shampoo thoroughly, I usually can't get rid of all the sebum particles stuck to my roots. But after using this scalp scaler, when I check my scalp with my fingers, I find no sebum particles left. The cleansing effectiveness is impressive.

As I'm almost finished with this product, if I can't find a suitable alternative, I'll likely repurchase it. However, it's not the absolute perfect product for me.

It stings my eyes quite a bit, and it's difficult to control the amount. Also, it feels a bit pricey.

It feels refreshing and nice. There's a cooling sensation that seems to help control blemishes.

Sometimes it's difficult to dispense product when applying to the back of the head. Just when I think it's empty, it still comes out easily when applying to the crown.

Easy to open and close with a twist, and convenient to apply to the scalp. It feels refreshingly cool when massaging it into the scalp. The cooling sensation remains even after rinsing, which is great. Thanks to its effectiveness in managing dead skin cells on the scalp, my dandruff has significantly reduced.

To prevent hair stiffness and use it daily, I've tried mixing it with other shampoos to create lather. This seems to be a good method.

It's expensive compared to regular shampoo. You can usually only buy it online. When used daily, it can make your hair feel stiff.

Although it's not a medication, with long-term use, it can even improve scalp inflammation and scalp heat. I've been using it for over a year. I finally escaped from the smelly scalp that had been bothering me since puberty, and my hair gets much less greasy now. As for the feel, it's not an irritating menthol sensation, but a truly healthy, cool feeling. The sensation diminishes as you get used to it, probably thanks to the healthier scalp. It's designed to be easily applied directly to the scalp.

I'm usually like a steel human, almost never experiencing allergies in my life. But every time I use this, it's itchy and stinging. I checked and found it contains a whopping 7 allergenic ingredients!

While it's not dramatically cooling, I feel like it has reduced dandruff

Cons:
- I'm not sure if it's worth the price given the small amount.
- Rather than using it to treat itchiness or seborrheic dermatitis, it might be better to use it preventatively!

Skin type: Oily skin/Acne/Scars/Pores

Pros:
- I bought this thinking I had an itchy, seborrheic scalp!

- It feels incredibly refreshing and I often reach for it when I want to thoroughly cleanse my scalp.

- I definitely noticed its effectiveness. I used it 1-2 times a week.

It's difficult to apply by yourself. The product doesn't come out from the tip of the opening. The pointed end can poke your scalp, and it's inconvenient to use with one hand while squeezing. The intense cooling effect on the scalp might be hit or miss for some people.

A must-have for scalp care. It effectively manages scalp itchiness and controls odor at the crown. When I ask people to smell my scalp, they say it just smells like shampoo. I have an oily scalp that can get itchy sometimes, but this product works wonders. The cleansing power isn't so strong that it leaves my scalp feeling dry, which is great. The price is reasonable, and it lasts surprisingly long.

Be careful not to get it near your eyes when using. A shower cap might be helpful. The effectiveness is genuinely good.

While the elimination of odor is fantastic, the issue is that it's too harsh, given how effective it is. (The ingredients aren't great...) I usually don't have much sensitivity, but even after quickly wiping it off when it slightly touched my eye area, the skin around my eyes became irritated the next day. I can understand if shampoo getting in your eyes causes stinging or pain, but the skin around my eyes is extremely irritated. The oiliness seems similar, with only a slight reduction - not a significant difference.

The scalp odor has truly disappeared. It's quite remarkable.
