The cleansing effectiveness for the scalp isn't bad either.
ConsIt doesn't give the impression of making my hair softer. I think I'll need to use a separate treatment.

It might be polarizing, but I personally enjoy it and use it regularly. It reminds me a bit of that Dettol smell from childhood? Kind of like a disinfectant soap scent. If you're expecting a typical baby powder fragrance, you might be surprised!
ConsIt leaves my hair feeling stiff. Before this, I used another brand's shampoo bar, but this makes my hair even stiffer. When rinsing, it feels like I'm washing my hair after bleaching it about 3 times. The pump is problematic - I always have to open and close the bottle before any product comes out. Without opening it, I need to press at least 10 times for a small amount to dispense. Maybe it's because the bottle is getting squeezed? It doesn't lather well either. It produces much less foam than regular shampoos - just slightly more than a typical conditioner.
TipFor fragrance retention, let it sit for a bit before rinsing.

However, I was surprised by how intense the scent became after use. -> Throughout the morning, the scent remained quite strong, more than I expected. Naturally, as it's not a perfume shampoo, the fragrance gradually became more subtle in the afternoon. But that gentle lingering scent stayed with me until I got home. ✔Less irritating to the scalp - My scalp condition: Sensitive (which is why I prefer vegan products. I was pleased that this product is also vegan.) -> My scalp is so sensitive that it becomes red and itchy when I use regular shampoos. However, this product, being a low pH shampoo, was noticeably less irritating than conventional shampoos. I was satisfied with how gentle it felt, leaving my scalp comfortable. ✔️Effectively removes oiliness - Hair volume: I have an incredibly thick mane. • I was aware that low pH shampoos typically don't lather well and may not cleanse as effectively. Given my very thick hair, I was concerned about its performance. -> While it didn't lather or cleanse as well as regular shampoos, I found it to have the best foam and cleansing power among the low pH shampoos I've tried so far.
Cons☑️ The pump dispenser was disappointing. It didn't dispense the product immediately with one pump, and I had to pump several times to get the contents out.
TipIt's worth noting that low pH shampoos generally have less cleansing power compared to regular shampoos. If you have an oily scalp, this might actually lead to blemishes.

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 the baby powder scent might be too strong, but it's actually a pleasant, mild soap fragrance that I'm quite satisfied with.
ConsWhile the product itself is great, the packaging feels a bit flimsy, and it lacks any special functional ingredients.

Being vegan, it's not harsh on the skin, and the baby powder scent is gentle, almost like a soft soap fragrance. I appreciated that the scent was mild and soothing rather than artificial or overpowering. There's no residue left behind, and for a vegan product, I'm pleased that it leaves my hair soft instead of stiff. The generous amount means I can use it liberally!
ConsDue to its vegan nature, it doesn't produce a lot of lather. If you're looking for a rich lather or have an oily scalp, you might be a bit disappointed. However, this could be seen as a positive sign that it's free from artificial ingredients, which might actually be better for scalp health in the long run.

Plus, you can open and close the pump! Fragrance: My husband loves the mild Dove soap-like baby scent. It's a gentle, subtle fragrance that lingers for a long time. Performance: The lightweight gel-type foam doesn't weigh down the scalp! Compared to other shampoos, it causes less itching and hair loss, which is satisfying. After use, hair feels light and fluffy, similar to using dry shampoo. Even after combing and air-drying, there's no tangling or hair fall! In a nutshell: A lightweight shampoo perfect for oily scalps! While I don't have an oily scalp (mine's more combination-dry), I think those with oily scalps would be even more satisfied with its light and refreshing feel.
ConsFragrance: Initially, the strong scent was off-putting, but I got used to it with continued use! (I like it now!) In this regard, for those sensitive to fragrances, it would be nice if the scent was just a tad lighter. To make it more appealing to a wider audience, it might be good to make the fragrance more approachable! Package: With continued use, I noticed the sides of the container would contract! Although it returned to its original shape over time, it was a bit concerning. Also, it seems like a small amount of shampoo leaks from the bottom of the pump! The container became slippery with shampoo residue. Performance: Overall, I was satisfied, but for those with dry or damaged hair, it might leave the hair feeling a bit frizzy and stiff.
TipFor those who air-dry their hair and want even softer locks, try applying a light emulsion you have on hand from the ends to the mid-lengths of your hair before it dries! You'll be satisfied with how much softer and shinier your hair becomes.

It's a baby powder scent, which I find pleasant even though it's intense. I prefer it to a stuffy musk - it's more like a refreshing soap scent, which I love! Texture: Unlike runny shampoos that slip through your fingers, this one has a perfect consistency. It's just like a regular shampoo! Plus, it lathers well, making it easy to use. Feel: If you enjoy a thorough cleanse, this is perfect! It leaves your scalp feeling so clean and refreshed. Design: The aesthetics are on point! It looks beautiful in my shampoo storage area, a nice change from the usual Kerasys bottles. I wish all shampoos looked this good!
ConsWhile I personally enjoy the scent, my mother found it too strong. However, its long-lasting nature could be seen as an additional benefit. The thorough cleansing can leave hair feeling a bit dry, so using a conditioner is a must. But that's fine for me since I always use a conditioner regardless of the shampoo.
TipMake sure to rinse thoroughly! Any shampoo residue left on the scalp can be very harmful.

It's reminiscent of Dove soap, with an incredibly soft scent! The fact that it's a vegan product is a big plus! I had the impression that vegan products don't lather well, but this one foams up nicely! Even with my oily scalp, it didn't become greasy quickly after washing! The enormous size... When I first received it, I was shocked by how big it was!
ConsDespite all the advantages mentioned above... For someone with damaged hair like me, my hair became too dry after use. You'll definitely need to follow up with a treatment, and I'd recommend those who dislike the feeling of dry hair to avoid this product.

It reminds me of a white bar of soap. The fragrance lasts until the next day, even after washing my hair at night. Every time I wash my hair, the pleasant scent puts me in a good mood. * Product Design The sleek, minimalist design makes it a great decorative addition to any bathroom. * Hair Improvement Even though I use the same hair essence as usual after shampooing, I noticed my hair feels better than before. This is despite not using any other hair care products and maintaining colored hair for over a year! I have fine hair, but I've noticed it gets tangled less frequently too.
Cons* Product Packaging Every time I try to pump out the shampoo, some leaks out between the pump mechanism. It's not a big deal in the bathroom since it can be washed away, but it means I often have to pump twice due to the leakage. * Scalp Tightness As I rinse out the shampoo, the hair near my scalp becomes increasingly tangled and difficult to rinse. This is especially noticeable when I double shampoo, which I prefer. The second wash makes this feeling more intense, so I end up only using it for the first wash.
TipTry using this shampoo instead of a neutral detergent for quick hand-washing. Your hand-washed clothes or stuffed animals will have a delightful scent that lifts your spirits.
