Pros

The cleansing effectiveness is great, and it leaves my scalp feeling refreshed. As someone who's dealt with seborrheic dermatitis, I'm usually sensitive to shampoos, but this one feels so cool and soothing - I love it! The price is wallet-friendly too.

Cons

No downsides whatsoever! It doesn't cause any irritation, offers great value for money - why wouldn't you buy it?

Tip

This review highlights the shampoo's gentle yet effective cleansing power, making it suitable for those with sensitive scalps or skin conditions. The reviewer emphasizes its cooling sensation and lack of irritation, which are crucial for people with scalp issues. They also appreciate its affordability, suggesting it's a smart purchase for those looking for an effective, budget-friendly hair care solution.

Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

Pros

The advantage is that it doesn't contain harsh chemicals and didn't trigger any allergic reactions like atopic dermatitis for me.

Cons

The cleansing effectiveness is too weak, so I have to wash my hair twice. Even after washing twice, my scalp becomes incredibly itchy before 24 hours have passed. It might be suitable for those with moderately oily hair, but I wouldn't recommend it for extremely oily scalps. Personally, I found the La Roche-Posay Seaweed Degreasing Shampoo much better as the itchiness takes longer to set in.

Tip

This review compares two different shampoos for oily hair, focusing on their cleansing power and how they affect scalp health. The reviewer has particularly oily hair and sensitive skin prone to allergies. They appreciate that this shampoo is gentle and doesn't cause allergic reactions, but find its cleansing ability insufficient for their needs. They suggest it might work for those with less oily hair, but recommend an alternative product for those with very oily scalps.

Pros

As someone who struggled with an oily scalp, dead skin cells, and scalp heat, this product has been a game-changer for me. It's become my go-to shampoo, with its refreshing and subtly sweet scent that actually makes me look forward to washing my hair. Unlike other shampoos that require two washes to cleanse my oily scalp, this one lathers up nicely with just a small amount, making the bottle last longer. The menthol ingredient is fantastic for cooling down scalp heat. If you're prone to a hot scalp, this shampoo is absolute bliss!

Cons

There are no downsides. I can confidently say this is the best menthol shampoo I've ever used.

Tip

My top tip is to just go ahead and buy it. The fragrance is truly delightful and doesn't get old.

Pros

I've been using this product exclusively for several years, and it's quite satisfactory for everyday use. It feels refreshing and lathers well. It also causes fewer blemishes compared to other products.

Cons

While it does seem to cause some blemishes, it's less problematic than other products I've tried.

Pros

The lather is great and it gives a sensation of cooling down the scalp! It's perfect for a refreshing hair wash in the summer!

Cons

After using it consistently for about 3 months, I started getting a pimple or two, which eventually led to seborrheic dermatitis, causing parts of my scalp to turn red. I also felt like I was losing more hair than usual, which became even more noticeable after switching to a different shampoo. As someone with already thin hair, this is quite upsetting.

Tip

Recommended for those with a robust scalp and skin

Pros

My husband has a sensitive scalp, but this shampoo works great for him! His scalp tends to get irritated easily, but it's fine when using this shampoo! I have dry skin too, and when I use this shampoo, my hair doesn't feel as rough, and it seems less irritating to my skin. The scent has a hint of mint, which I like since I'm not a fan of artificial floral fragrances. The texture is slightly runny, which makes it lather up quickly and easily. While the cleansing effectiveness isn't visibly noticeable, the cool scent makes it feel like it's washing away thoroughly!

Cons

The downside is that if you don't use conditioner after shampooing, your hair might feel a bit dry. This could be because I have dry, extremely damaged hair, but for me, using conditioner is a must.

Tip

The mint scent doesn't linger for long. After washing and drying your hair, it leaves more of a cotton-like scent, which feels natural and pleasant! However, for better hair texture, using conditioner along with this shampoo will help you maintain softer hair!

Pros

Scalp type - Oily scalp that gets greasy if not washed daily Has dandruff and leaves a distinct mugwort scent on the scalp Sensitive scalp * Cleansing effectiveness and lather: Adequate * Volume: Quite generous * Texture: Not runny, has a good consistency #blue color#

Cons

* Cooling effect: Bought this brand after hearing it provides a refreshing wash for oily scalps As someone with oily skin, I #didn't feel any cooling effect at all# Occasionally felt a cooling sensation when it touched my body... Checked the ingredients and found it contains a small amount of menthol. * Scent: As expected, cooling-type shampoos like this don't smell great. I bought it hoping it would control scalp oil, but it was more #greasy# than expected and #didn't manage my distinct scalp odor.# If anything, it made the scalp smell more noticeable. * Dandruff care: Seems difficult to manage for chronic dandruff sufferers like me
