Pros
When I'm stressed, my scalp gets itchy and I tend to scratch it often, but this shampoo seems to really help. I don't use it daily, just 1-3 times a week when the itchiness flares up. The price is quite reasonable for a shampoo, and it seems more affordable compared to others in terms of quantity. Being a cooling shampoo, it should be great for summer use. I'd also recommend it to those who are stressed about having a lot of dead skin cells on their scalp!
Cons
While it's effective for scalp issues, it seems to make the hair texture a bit stiff as a trade-off.

Pros
Unlike other shampoos that left my scalp itchy even after thorough washing, this one keeps that problem at bay. It's so refreshing! With my oily scalp, I usually get greasy hair after just one day, but with this shampoo, it takes about two days for the oil to build up. It's cooling yet gentle, so I'm really enjoying it. However, it might work differently depending on your scalp type - my boyfriend says it makes his hair feel a bit stiff. For me, using this shampoo followed by Pantene treatment leaves my hair soft, except for the damaged ends.
Cons
I'm not sure yet. If I had to nitpick, maybe the scent? It could be polarizing. It somewhat reminds me of my dad's shampoo, but I personally like the cool fragrance, so I'm using it without any issues.
Tip
When washing your hair, don't scratch your scalp vigorously with your nails just because it feels refreshing. This can cause injuries and lead to dandruff and dead skin cells. Instead, use your fingertips to gently massage your scalp, like they do at salons. Also, since oil and odor originate from the scalp, you don't need to lather up your hair strands as if you're doing laundry. Just gently work the foam through your hair as it naturally flows down to avoid damaging your locks. If you still feel your scalp isn't clean or refreshed enough after manual washing, try using a shampoo brush. Don't splurge at Olive Young - get an inexpensive one from Daiso for about 1000 won to test it out first.

Pros
This product saved me from the nightmare combo of seborrheic dermatitis, itchy scalp, dead skin cells, scabs, and greasy hair that was causing me so much stress! Except in peak summer, I can go two days without washing my hair and it doesn't get greasy. On wash days, my hair feels bouncy all day long. Best of all, my scalp has improved dramatically. My seborrheic dermatitis has gotten better, the itchiness is gone, and the scabs and flakes have significantly reduced. It's truly my scalp's lifesaver! While this brand can be hit or miss for some, it was a huge hit for me. My mom also struggled with dandruff and found relief with this product, which is why I decided to try it. I'm absolutely satisfied. I alternate between the Cool Menthol and Itchy Scalp versions, and I plan to keep using them.
Cons
There's nothing bad to say. I plan to keep using this scalp-saving product!
Tip
They say your scalp can develop a tolerance if you use just one product, so you might not get the same results as when you first started. I alternate between two shampoos that work well for me. I use Head & Shoulders, which has strong cleansing effectiveness, and a vegan shampoo with good ingredients, switching between them every three days.

Pros
Pros: After washing my hair, it didn't itch for about a day. The lather is rich and abundant. Usually, anti-itch shampoos are thick and don't foam well, but this one is smooth and lathers beautifully. The foam is really fine and plentiful. I absolutely loved it. Washing my hair was so easy. Some people might appreciate this - it feels cool and refreshing both during and after washing. The bottle size is generous. I'd like to try other Head & Shoulders shampoos too.
Cons
Cons: I experienced dandruff. Dead skin cells were also falling off. And after not washing for a day, it became unbearably itchy. I thought I was going to die from the itching. Could it be because I didn't pre-wash? Also, while some might find the cooling sensation pleasant, for me it felt extremely intense - like applying a cooling patch to my scalp. It was too intense for my liking. Except for the cooling effect, I'd give this shampoo a perfect score. I paid a hefty price for it - 18,000 won at the supermarket. Usually, you can get a 1+1 deal or find it cheaper online, but I needed it urgently so I bought it this way...

Pros
This is the best shampoo I've ever used. It really helps with scalp itchiness and leaves a refreshing feeling.
Cons
There's nothing bad to say! Everything about it is perfect! I'll definitely be repurchasing.

Pros
True to its name, it's refreshing and comes in a large size at a great price, making it a good value for money. It seems to have some effect on relieving scalp itchiness.
Cons
After using this shampoo for a while, I noticed my hair actually became greasier. My hairstylist mentioned that excessive oil removal can cause the skin to produce more oil, and the scalp is no different from the rest of your skin. It seems overdoing it isn't good.
Tip
The large size makes it convenient for everyday use, whether for washing or even bathroom cleaning. The scent is like menthol or peppermint, which I found pleasant.

After using this, my scalp itching definitely disappeared. It also reduces dandruff, which is great.
Cons
There's nothing particularly bad to mention. The scent is better than expected and the effects last longer.

Pros
No scalp itching, and after being unsatisfied with everything else, I switched to this shampoo. I've tried Deep Clean and anti-itching formulas, but Cool Menthol was the best.
Cons
This is my ultimate go-to shampoo. Here's my experience with others: Sublimic - okay for scalp, but leaves hair frizzy and rough. Rausch - causes scalp itching. Dr.G shampoo - leads to scalp blemishes. Ryo Volume shampoo - dries out scalp and causes itching. Ryo Sensitive shampoo - makes scalp greasy and leaves blemishes. It seems coconut-based surfactants don't agree with me (face or scalp). With this one, hair condition is decent even without conditioner. It leaves my scalp feeling refreshed.

Pros
At first, I was skeptical about the menthol scent, but it's actually quite pleasant. The real game-changer is how it eliminates dandruff and stops my scalp from itching. Even after 24 hours without washing, my hair doesn't get greasy or matted.
Cons
The menthol scent is quite strong. You might want to be careful with this one, and I wouldn't recommend it if you're not a fan of menthol.
Tip
For best results, enjoy a refreshing 1-2 minute wash.
