After going through over 10 bottles of Labo-H's green and light green products, I've switched to their shampoo bar to reduce plastic waste. I tend to experience periodic scalp blemishes, and here's what I love about this product: 1. It has almost identical cleansing effectiveness and feel to bottled shampoo 2. It produces a rich lather These are its biggest advantages! It's essentially like they've transformed their liquid shampoo into a solid bar. In fact, it's even more convenient for travel as it takes up less space than liquid shampoo. When shampoo bars first came out, it took some time to get used to the concept. But once you're accustomed to it, it's quite nice.
Cons1. Hair feels slightly stiffer compared to liquid shampoo - However, personally, I find it's fine to skip treatment for a day or so. 2. It's a bit challenging to use up the very last bits of the shampoo bar - I'm not sure if it's just me lacking technique, but the small pieces don't stick together, so you end up with shampoo bar bits rolling around. I really want to use it up completely, but rubbing the small pieces directly on your palm can be a bit uncomfortable due to the granules. 3. It takes time to adjust to the right amount to use - This might be more of an issue with shampoo bars in general rather than specific to Labo-H. The product description states it's equivalent to 400g of liquid shampoo, but it feels like it gets used up faster. However, it also produces more lather, so it seems some adjustment is needed.
TipStoring the bar in a soap net as shown in the picture helps prevent it from wearing down too quickly.

ConsIt can be a bit stiff, but that's probably due to the anti-hair loss shampoo formula It would be nice if the price was a bit lower

The bar form is new to me, but using the one you recommended, I found that it lathers up quite well, though not as much as regular shampoo. So I've been using it as a pre-shampoo. After shampooing and rinsing it off as per the instructions, my scalp feels refreshed and clean. Most importantly, it's better for the environment than regular shampoo, and the scent is not too strong, so there's not much room for dislike. Going forward, I think I'll continue to purchase shampoo bars instead of regular shampoo.
ConsIt has a slightly minty, refreshing feel, so my hair isn't exactly soft, but rather slightly stiff. That's why I always make sure to use a conditioner afterwards!

I rubbed and squeezed my hands so hard to make sure the lather would come out, and it ended up being tremendously foamy. The lather also didn't disappear during the scalp massage, which was great. There was only a slight stiffness when I was squeezing out the water after rinsing, but after that, there was no stiffness at all. In fact, my hair felt calm and relaxed after drying. My scalp became squeaky clean, and my hair became soothed. This product has shattered my preconceptions about shampoo bars. As for the hair loss issue, I'll need to use it for a bit longer to know for sure, but after 10 days of use, I've noticed less shedding! I love it! The fragrance is unscented!
ConsThe lather didn't form as well with cold water. But other than that, there were no disappointments.
TipPlease use lukewarm water to create the lather, and be sure to rinse thoroughly with water to remove all the residue after use.

First of all, I'm glad that it's made without using plastic containers, as it shows consideration for the environment. The packaging is also made of paper, which I appreciate. In addition, the lather it produces is surprisingly abundant. As soon as it comes into contact with water, it starts to foam up nicely. I'm not sure if it's already helping with my hair loss symptoms, as I've only been using it for a few days, but I'll continue using it. Overall, I really enjoy the convenience of using this shampoo bar.
ConsThe shampoo bar seems to have a strong soap-like quality, so my hair feels a bit stiff after rinsing it out. However, I always use a conditioner, so it's not a major issue. Additionally, when the shampoo bar dries out, the surface starts to crack a bit. It doesn't affect the usability, but it doesn't look the best. That's why I'm considering buying a shampoo bar drying rack or stand to help prevent this.
TipI thoroughly wet my hair with water before applying the shampoo bar. I then gently massage the bar all over my scalp to create a good lather. After that, I use my fingertips to further massage the lather into my hair. Finally, I make sure to rinse it out thoroughly.

Grass..? It has that kind of fresh aroma, which I really liked!! But the scent doesn't linger on the hair ㅠㅠ 🟠 Lather This was my first time using a shampoo bar, and the lather was much richer than I expected!! It wasn't a thin, wispy lather, but a nice, dense and creamy one! I really enjoyed that! 🟡 Usage Experience It was a bit challenging to use without a lather net, but when shampooing, my hair felt cleansed and my scalp felt refreshed!! It gave me a sense of effective care!!
Cons💧 My hair didn't feel as soft and smooth after using it ㅠㅠ! 💧 The scent doesn't really linger on the hair..! 💧 It seemed to get used up quite quickly, so I felt like I might finish it before seeing any real effects ㅠㅠ Seeing results in a short time is usually difficult, but it seemed even more so in this case..! If you're looking for guaranteed short-term effects, I wouldn't recommend this.
Tip🍯 Be sure to use a lather net, everyone ㅠㅠ!!! And using a scalp brush along with it will make your scalp feel even more refreshed!

Lather: I was surprised by the really rich lather. I'm also using the Ton×× shampoo bar, and shampoo bars usually don't lather well, but this product lathers well even without a lather net, and the lather becomes even more voluminous when using a lather net, so I can use it with less scrubbing. Texture: Shampoo bars are usually soft, but this one is firm! It's important to ventilate the bathroom when using a shampoo bar so that it can be used for a long time. Usage experience: After using it, my hair falls out less and the volume is revived as shown in the photo! It's not drying. Recommended skin type: It's said to be suitable for all skin types, and I think it would be good for my oily and sensitive scalp, as well as my parents' dry scalp, without any trouble. Purchase price: Trial set
ConsUsage experience: Although the advertisement says it's not stiff, I felt it was stiff, so I'm taking off one star. Trouble: I didn't have any trouble after continuously using the trial set. Not recommended skin type: I recommend it for all skin types.
TipIf you use a shampoo bar with a soap net, you can save money and get an even richer lather. And ventilation is needed after use. That way, it won't get too soft and can be used for a longer time.

While most shampoo bars tend to be like that, this one lathers up really well. I have an oily scalp, but frequent coloring has left the ends of my hair quite dry. Regular shampoos just couldn't seem to properly control the oil on my scalp. That's why I started using a shampoo bar. Massaging it directly onto my scalp and working up a good lather has really helped control the oil. I just gave birth recently, so I've been worried about hair loss and excess oil, and had been using Rabo H out of necessity. But switching to this shampoo bar has been wonderful~ It controls the oil on my scalp well, and the lather is great. The scalp-focused formula does seem to leave the lower part of my hair slightly drier, but with my baby constantly grabbing and shaking my head, the extra cleansing is actually a good thing.
ConsCompared to other products I've used, this one has a smaller volume but a larger size.~ (It's wider) The larger size makes it easy to apply and lather up, but it also means it wears down faster ㅠㅠ
TipJust like regular soap, shampoo bars can be used until the very end by placing them in a soap dish or mesh bag.

It has a herbal aroma, but I don't really like it that much because it seems to have a lot of fragrance ingredients. The lather is great. As you can see from the shampoo bar, there are exfoliating granules that create a scrubbing effect. Even without using a loofah, the lather forms well.
ConsTo be honest, this is a shampoo bar for hair loss, so I wanted to write a review after using it for a bit longer, but it's a shame that the usage period was short. Based on the short usage, there wasn't much difference compared to other shampoos in terms of hair loss and such. I have an oily scalp that lacks moisture. If I don't wash my hair once a day, it gets really itchy. For me, this product had more downsides than upsides. The lather is good and it lathers up smoothly, but it still feels a bit stiff after washing, which is unavoidable with a soap-like product. As someone who doesn't use a conditioner, it was a bit inconvenient for me. From the second day of using the shampoo bar, I started getting some trouble and redness on the back of my scalp. I thought it couldn't be because of just using it a little, but after the third use, my scalp started itching, so I decided to use it every other day. But with the uncomfortable, stiff feeling, I've decided to stop using it after writing this review. I'm a bit disappointed because I thought it might have gotten better if I used it for longer, but I think other people might have had a good experience with it. This is just my personal review!
TipI tried to use the Hwahae Trial Reviewer product until the end. The only tip I can give is that using a rinse or treatment is essential.

My brother said it's like washing his hair with toothpaste, but I liked the refreshing feeling. I have extremely oily hair, so even if I wash it in the morning, by the evening my hair is greasy again. But when I use this, it feels squeaky clean and the oil control lasts longer than my usual shampoo.
ConsThe little beads made the hair washing process take longer Why are those beads even in the shampoo bar in the first place, when I'm in a rush in the morning? I think it's because of the scalp flakes... I only used that when I had time to really scrub in the evenings If it's meant to be used for the scalp every other day, then it might be good. Is that the original purpose of this shampoo bar? Hmm... Anyway, it's inconvenient to use as a daily morning shampoo.
