When I wake up, there's a pile of hair on my pillow, and every time I wash my hair, a handful comes out... I'm not sure if the anti-hair loss shampoo will really be effective, but since I won the Hwahae Trial Reviewer lottery, I've been using it consistently. I usually prefer strongly scented shampoos with floral or coconut fragrances, but this one has a subtle, pleasant scent. However, the scent doesn't seem to linger as long after washing. I thought the anti-hair loss shampoo might not lather well, but it actually foams up better than the ones I've used before. The product description says it takes about two to three months to see results, and the bottle size seems just right, not too big or small, with a cute design. It's only been a week, so I haven't noticed any major changes yet, but I haven't experienced any itchiness or irritation while using it. I didn't know this shampoo was vegan until I started using it, but I haven't noticed any difference in performance compared to regular shampoos, which shows how much vegan products have improved. I'm really glad to see more and more vegan options becoming available. The only downside is that the Hwahae Trial Reviewer period is always too short. Especially for a functional product like this, a longer trial period would be better to really see the effects.
ConsWhile there's no residue left after rinsing, the shampoo seems to have a strong cleansing power, so if I use it alone without a conditioner, my hair feels quite dry and rough.

It has a mysterious aroma, like tasting lemon zest in a cedar forest. It's not artificial, which puts the mind at ease. 😃 The cleansing power is great. Just half a pump is enough to create a rich lather for washing my short hair. 😃 I was pleasantly surprised by the packaging. They've used only paper materials, and the packaging itself emits a lovely fragrance.
Cons😗 Being a hair loss shampoo, it does lack a bit in terms of moisture. After washing, my hair feels slightly stiff, so a conditioner is a must. However, for those concerned about hair loss or dandruff, hair texture may not be their top priority, so this may not be a major issue.

It wasn't like artificial flower fragrances or baby powder scents, but had a nice, subtle aroma that wasn't overpowering like some of the shampoos these days! 👍 It's a transparent, watery formula, but it lathers up well with just a small amount! Since I have an extremely oily scalp, I usually use a pre-shampoo (1 pump) and then the main shampoo (2 pumps), for a total of 3 pumps. But with this shampoo, 1 pump was enough! The photo is of 2 pumps, but the transparent formula makes it hard to see. 👍 My hair is sometimes damaged from bleaching and perms, and when I use shampoos with harsh ingredients, I can smell a pungent, chemical-like odor while washing. But with this gentle shampoo, I didn't experience that at all! 👍 It doesn't have an amazing effect on hair loss, but my hair does seem to be falling out less than usual. I used to have to clear out my drain almost every day or two, but now there's less hair clogging it up. 💡 I think products like anti-hair loss shampoos need to be used for at least a month to really see their full benefits. I'll keep using this and update my thoughts after more time.
Cons🤔 Botaniciens claims this is a gentle shampoo that doesn't require a separate conditioner, but I think it's still difficult to use just the shampoo on its own. Using the shampoo and conditioner together does make my hair feel softer and healthier than usual. So yes, the conditioner is still necessary.😂 Especially in the winter like now, I think using the conditioner is even more important. 🤔 For those who prefer fragrances that linger, they may not be fully satisfied. The subtle rosemary scent seems to fade away quite quickly. ㅠ,ㅠ 11.19 Update ❗️🤔 My hair also seems to get greasy really fast. Even though I have an extremely oily scalp, I noticed my hair getting oily quicker compared to other shampoos.😭 As a shampoo nomad, I'll have to keep searching for a good shampoo for oily hair.🥲
Tip🍯 Fellow oily scalp folks! I think a pre-shampoo is an absolute must, not an optional step, for every shampoo session! Even skipping it just one day makes my hair turn into an oil field so quickly.^p^.. Consistently doing the pre-shampoo really helps control the greasiness, so everyone can enjoy a pleasant shampoo experience!💆♀️💆💆♂️

The lather was good and it rinsed off well, which I liked!! The 470ml large size is great.
ConsWhile the cleansing power is good, my hair felt a bit stiff, which was disappointing. Other than that, I liked it!

My hair has always been thin, but since I don't dye it, it's relatively healthy. To be honest, I didn't really notice the effects when I first used it, but when I used it for the second time, I definitely felt like my scalp was cleaner. I even skipped shampooing for a day just to see the difference, and the itchiness was gone, which was surprising. My hair doesn't get as oily, and it doesn't seem to produce as much dandruff either. It seems to be doing a great job of taking care of my scalp. If your sebum production isn't too extreme, you'll likely see good results from this product. (Personally, I like cool scalp treatments that physically remove buildup, like Dead Sea salt or scrubs, but I didn't feel the need to use those while using this product.) They said it has a herbal-like scent, but among my other bath products, this one just has a mild, baby-like fragrance. The weak scent was actually a plus for me. These days, there are so many products with strong, distinctive fragrances that can be overwhelming when mixed together. The price point is reasonable, especially considering its anti-hair loss benefits. I prefer trying out different products rather than sticking to a routine, and I currently have four shampoos in my bathroom, including this one. For at least the transitional seasons, I think I'll be using this product exclusively.
ConsWhile they claim this product has anti-hair loss benefits, I haven't been able to notice those effects in the short time I've used it. However, scalp cleansing and hair loss are closely related, so I believe this product still plays an important role in protecting my precious hair, even if I haven't directly experienced the anti-hair loss benefits yet.
TipFirst, I make sure to thoroughly wet my scalp and hair, then I pump out a small amount and rinse it out. For the second round, I pump it a couple more times, massaging it in to reach all the nooks and crannies. This leaves my scalp feeling thoroughly cleansed. When I do the second shampooing, I let the lather sit for a bit while I'm showering, which boosts the cleansing power even further.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros✔️ While a single use may not show a drastic change, even a small amount provides rich lather with a slightly acidic pH5, which does not irritate the scalp. After shampooing, I felt my scalp was soothed. And I felt the itchiness has significantly reduced!!! ✔️ The Botanic Sense anti-hair loss shampoo had the best fragrance for me, and just two pumps produced an incredible amount of foam. Wow, so much lather! The abundant foam allowed me to massage it into my scalp thoroughly. As I was shampooing, the subtle rosemary scent was so pleasant~~ And since it passed the skin irritation test, even those with sensitive scalps can use this shampoo with confidence!
Cons✔️ Usually, anti-hair loss shampoos can make the hair feel a bit stiff, and this product seemed to have that effect as well~ Using a separate conditioner might make my hair feel even softer and smoother 😊

I also felt that it was non-irritating to my scalp. Typically, anti-hair loss shampoos tend to have poor lathering or feel heavy, but this product surprised me with its soft and well-foaming texture. When mixed with water, it produced a rich, luxurious lather, making the shampooing experience quite pleasant. The overall usage experience is not exceptionally remarkable, but not particularly poor either, which I found to be a positive. As someone sensitive to scents, I enjoyed the refreshing citrus fragrance, which provided an invigorating sensation during shampooing. The herb-infused scent also helped prevent any unpleasant scalp odor. I felt a slight 'thickening' effect on my hair. While I'll need to use it more to fully assess, there seems to be a subtle volumizing impact on my hair. The price point for a functional anti-hair loss shampoo is not overly expensive.
ConsWhile my hair felt thicker, I experienced a slightly coarse and dry texture. It almost felt like some flyaway hairs were revived. You'll need to diligently use a conditioner, treatment, and hair essence to properly address this. The hair loss reduction is not dramatic in the short term. And while there is a thickening sensation, I'm unsure if the effects are truly transformative.
TipI recommend trying to purchase this product when it's on sale on Hwahae or other platforms! Be sure to thoroughly apply a hair treatment and essence when using this shampoo!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. Cleansing Power The cleansing power was the first thing I really liked. It feels like it effectively removes oil from the hair. You can get a lot of lather even with a small amount. 2. Ingredients It's an acidic shampoo that uses only 100% naturally-derived surfactants, so it's gentle and less irritating. And since it's a functional shampoo certified by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for hair loss treatment, I felt more confident in using it. I haven't used it enough times yet to know the full effects, but it does seem like my hair is falling out less than before. 3. Fragrance It has a light, herbal fragrance, almost like fresh leaves or rosemary, that's not overpowering and fades nicely.
Cons1. Fragrance Longevity The fragrance is nice, but I personally prefer shampoos where the scent lingers longer on the hair. With this functional shampoo, the fragrance doesn't seem to last as long, only until right after rinsing. 2. Stiffness My previous shampoo made my hair feel soft, but this one leaves a slightly stiffer feel. It's not too bad, but I think I'll need to use a conditioner or treatment afterwards. 3. Volume The volume-to-price ratio isn't the best. Even if they offered a larger size, I think it would be good if they had an even bigger option.
