While the scent may be divisive, I personally enjoy it and have been using it well. It has a similar scent to the Dettol soap I used to use as a child - a disinfectant-like scent. If you think of a generic baby powder fragrance, that's what it's like. You'll probably be like 'Huh?' when you use it.
ConsI feel like my hair is getting stiff. I used another brand's shampoo bar before this one, and it feels stiffer than the shampoo bar, so I had to rinse it 3 times or so and it felt like I was washing my hair. The pump doesn't work well. I always have to open the container and close it again before it comes out. If I just press down without opening it, I have to press it at least 10 times for a little bit to come out. I think it's because the container has shrunk. The lather doesn't come out well. It doesn't lather as well as regular shampoo, but it's better than just a treatment.
TipLet the hair oil sit for a bit and then rinse it out

But after using it, I was surprised by how strong the fragrance was. -> The fragrance remained quite strong throughout the morning. However, from the afternoon onwards, since it's not a perfume shampoo, the fragrance gradually became more subtle. But that subtle lingering scent remained until I got home. ✔Minimal scalp irritation. - My scalp condition: I have a sensitive scalp (which is why I prefer vegan products. This product is also vegan, which I liked.) -> When I use regular shampoos, my scalp gets red and itchy. But this product is a mild, acidic shampoo, so it didn't irritate my scalp as much as regular shampoos. I was satisfied that my scalp felt comfortable, indicating this is a gentle product. ✔️Grease is removed well😮 - Hair volume: I have an absolutely massive amount of hair. • I was aware that acidic shampoos don't lather as well and have relatively weaker cleansing power. And since my hair volume is huge, I was unsure if it would be okay. -> The lather and cleansing power weren't as strong as regular shampoos, but it was the best among the acidic shampoos I've tried so far.
Cons☑️ The pump dispenser was disappointing. When I pumped it, the product didn't come out right away, and I had to pump it several times for the product to come out.
TipAcidic shampoos generally have slightly weaker cleansing power compared to regular shampoos. For oily scalp types, this could potentially lead to issues with breakouts.

While baby powder fragrances can sometimes have an artificial scent, the Alpist fragrance is not artificial and has a subtle, pleasant aroma. It's a mix of soap-like and floral scents. When I opened the package, the fragrance was so nice that I exclaimed out loud. Individual preferences may vary, but it's a perfect fit for me. The shampoo contains no sulfate surfactants, which I always check for since I use it daily and it touches my body. While Alpist doesn't have sulfates, it does have other alternative surfactants. I checked the ingredients on the Hwahae app, and there were no major issues, so I used it with confidence. One pump covers the crown, another pump covers the back of the head, and another half-pump covers the oilier areas. It lathers up nicely. For reference, I have very thick hair. The lather is not big and bubbly, but a rich, gentle foam. I was worried the mild formula might not clean well, but the cleansing power is good. After using Alpist, my scalp feels refreshed all day. I'm curious what ingredient causes that. Even in the evening, my hair doesn't feel oily, and there's no greasy smell. It feels so soft and fluffy, which is wonderful. I usually use a conditioner, so I'm not sure how the hair feels with just the shampoo. But compared to other shampoos I've tried, it does seem a bit softer. I have a sensitive scalp and sometimes get irritation from incompatible shampoos, but I didn't experience any issues with Alpist. Instead, my scalp felt soothed. It's a gentle, mild formula.
ConsTo be honest, I'm extremely satisfied with this product, but if I had to mention a potential downside, it's that the cleansing power may be a bit lacking for those with very oily hair. However, I found that if you massage the scalp well to build up a good lather, and then let it sit for 3-5 minutes before rinsing, it seems to work better for those with very oily hair.
TipRight, letting it sit for 3-5 minutes before rinsing can help with removing excess oil from the hair. And the baby powder-scented conditioner complements the shampoo nicely - the fragrance is lovely, and it helps protect the hair's condition.

I was worried that the baby powder scent would be too strong, but the pleasant soap fragrance is satisfying.
ConsWhile the contents inside seem quite good, the packaging is a bit flimsy and there are no special functional ingredients.

Perhaps because it's vegan, it's not irritating and the baby powder scent itself is mild and has a soap-like fragrance. I liked the soft, gentle fragrance rather than an intense, artificial one. There's hardly any residue, and as a vegan product, my hair didn't get stiff but became soft, so I'm satisfied. The volume is also generous, so I can use it generously.
ConsDue to its vegan nature, it doesn't produce a lot of lather. If you're looking for strong foaming power or have an oily scalp, you may be a bit disappointed. However, that also means fewer artificial ingredients were used, which could actually be better for scalp health.

Fragrance: My husband likes the Dove soap scent and baby smell. It's a mild and subtle fragrance that lasts a long time. Usability: The gel-type light foam doesn't burden the scalp! It's less itchy and sheds less hair than other shampoos, so I'm satisfied. After use, it feels light and fluffy like a dry shampoo. I usually air-dry, but there's no tangling or hair loss! One-line review: A light shampoo specialized for oily scalp! Although I don't have an oily scalp but a normal one, I think those with oily scalps will be more satisfied with the lightness and freshness.
ConsFragrance: At first, the fragrance was too strong for me, but I got used to it over continued use! (Now I like it!) In this regard, if the fragrance was a bit more subtle, it would be better so that those sensitive to fragrance wouldn't dislike it. It would be great if the accessibility to the fragrance was improved so that more people could be satisfied after use! Package: As I continued using it, the container's sides started contracting! Of course, it returned to normal over time, but it was a bit worrying. Also, there seems to be a slight leak from the bottom of the pump! The shampoo liquid got on the container, making it slippery. Usability: Overall, I was satisfied, but those with dry or damaged hair might feel it's a bit fluffy and stiff.
TipIf you're air-drying and want softer hair, try applying a light lotion to the ends and mid-lengths before drying. It will make your hair more soft and glossy!

But it also lasts a long time~ However, I'm okay with the baby powder-like scent as it's not an oppressive musk fragrance. Instead, it's a refreshing soap-like scent, which I really like🥰 ✔️Texture: Unlike thin shampoos that tend to slip through your hands, making them difficult to use, this one has a nice, average shampoo texture! And the lather is great, making it easy to use. ✔️Usage: I really enjoy a thorough cleansing feeling, and this shampoo delivers just that!!! It leaves my hair feeling so refreshed and wonderful ㅠㅠㅠ ✔️Design: The aesthetics are on point! Having this Kerasys-esque shampoo bottle is so pretty ㅠ I wish other shampoos would come in similar packaging.
Cons✔️Personally, I like the fragrance, but my mom said it was too strong! However, the fact that it lasts a long time is an added benefit. ✔️Instead of the thorough cleansing, it made my hair a bit dry... So a conditioner is a must! But I use a conditioner with any shampoo I use, so it's not a big deal for me.
TipMake sure to rinse it out thoroughly! Even a little bit of shampoo left behind can be really bad for your scalp ㅠ^ㅠ

It's reminiscent of Dove soap and has an incredibly soft scent! 😀 The fact that it's a vegan product-! 😀 There was a perception that vegan products don't lather well, but the lather was great and it worked well! Even with my oily scalp, my hair didn't get greasy right after washing! 😀 The size is ridiculously large.. When I first received it, I was shocked at how big it was!
Cons😭 Putting aside all the advantages above.. For my damaged hair, my hair became too dry after using it 😭 You'll definitely need to use a conditioner, and I'd recommend avoiding it if you don't like the feeling of dry hair 😭😭😭

It's a scent that evokes a white solid soap. The fragrance lasts even if you wash your hair at night and go to bed. I feel good every time I wash my hair because of the nice scent :) * Product Design The minimalist, clean design looks great as bathroom decor. * Hair Improvement After shampooing, I used my usual essence and felt that my hair was even better than usual. I haven't used any other hair care products, and my dyed hair has lasted over a year! My hair is on the thin side, and I feel like the tangling has decreased as well.
Cons* Packaging Finish Whenever I try to pump the shampoo, the solution leaks out through the pump. Since I use it in the bathroom, I can just rinse it away, but I end up having to pump it twice each time because it leaks in the middle. * Scalp Stickiness The more I rinse out the shampoo, the more the hair near my scalp becomes sticky and clumped together, making it harder to rinse. Especially since I like to shampoo twice, the second time feels even worse, so I only use it for the first shampoo now.
TipFor simple hand-washing, try using this shampoo instead of a neutral detergent. The fragrance of this product will permeate the hand-washed clothes or dolls, making you feel good.
