ConsThe more I use it, the stiffer my hair feels. I think I'll need to supplement with a treatment or essence.
TipWhen I used it with a foam net, I was able to create a richer lather.

At first, I was worried that being soap-like, it might not lather well. But as soon as I wet it and rubbed it on my hair, it produced an amazingly rich lather, which was great. I have thick hair, so it usually takes a long time to wet it thoroughly, and it's not easy to work up a good lather. I typically do a pre-wash and then shampoo twice. However, with this shampoo bar, as long as I wet my hair well, it creates such a rich lather that I don't need to wash twice, which is fantastic!
ConsI'm a bit disappointed that my scalp doesn't feel significantly better yet, and I don't get that refreshing feeling after shampooing. I wish the fragrance was a bit more pleasant. After shampooing, my hair feels too stiff, which is a bit uncomfortable.
TipFor best results, thoroughly wet your hair, section it, and rub the bar directly on your scalp. This creates a better lather and ensures a thorough cleanse everywhere!

The fine foam particles made shampooing a delightful experience.
ConsThe downside is that, being a shampoo bar, it inevitably leaves your hair feeling a bit stiff after washing.
TipUsing a conditioner or hair treatment afterwards is a must!

Here's what I loved: 1. It's eco-friendly! I always felt guilty throwing away plastic bottles from regular shampoo. I even tried products that only sell refills, but this one is completely biodegradable, which I love even more. The packaging is minimal too - just paper, no excess. So satisfying! 2. The scent is strong! As soon as I unwrapped the bar, the fragrance hit me. But it's not a headache-inducing perfume smell. It's more like a fabric softener scent? It felt very familiar to me, similar to a body emulsion I've used. I left it in the bathroom before showering, and when I went in that evening, the whole room was filled with its aroma. That's how potent it is! Some reviews mentioned the scent disappears after rinsing, but I could still smell it even after using a hair pack. It's a comforting scent that I didn't mind at all. 3. I was worried about lather, but it foamed up beautifully, just like regular soap! I have oily skin, so sometimes it's hard to get a good lather if I skip a day of washing, but this product always produced rich foam. And of course, its cleansing power is top-notch!
ConsHonestly, I can't find anything to complain about! Usually, when a product is this good, it's expensive and makes you hesitate. But for this quality at this price point, it's not bad at all. (Though a sale would make it even better!) However, as I mentioned in the pros, the shampoo scent is strong. If you're not a fan of fragrances, you might want to think twice. Also, because it cleanses so well, if you only use the shampoo without conditioner, those with dry or damaged hair might find it a bit harsh. But using a hair pack or treatment along with it should work fine! I've listed these under cons, but for me, they're all positives. I'm actually interested in trying their other products now!

Lather: As a regular shampoo user, I didn't have high expectations for a solid shampoo bar, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it lathers. * I initially thought the soap would be used up quickly and seemed expensive compared to its shelf life. However, after a week of use, there's still plenty left. * The bar comes with a convenient hanging loop, making it easy to store and prevent it from getting soggy after use. * I appreciate that it remains firm and doesn't soften easily, even when left in water for a while.
Cons♥ The scent doesn't last very long. ♥ If you're used to regular shampoo, your hair might feel a bit stiff after rinsing. I found that I couldn't skip using conditioner. Other than that, I'm using it well without any blemishes.
TipFor a healthy scalp~~

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.ProsI was curious about trying a shampoo bar, and luckily I got the chance through a giveaway event! What I loved about it was first and foremost the amazing scent! It filled my bathroom with a lovely fragrance, and my hair smelled delightful even after washing. The cleansing effectiveness is outstanding! My scalp felt refreshingly clean, and I noticed it rinsed out more easily than my usual shampoo. It lathers up wonderfully! I was initially concerned about the foam production from a stick-shaped bar, but it created a rich lather with ease.
ConsThe downsides were: It can be drying for those with dry skin and hair. Without using a conditioner afterwards, my hair felt quite parched. It wears down quickly. As someone with longer hair, I felt the bar depleted faster than expected - to the point where I'd need to repurchase monthly. It contains many potential allergens. As someone with sensitive skin prone to various allergies, I was worried about the ingredients. (Though I didn't experience any blemishes during use)
TipWhile there are pros and cons, I'm satisfied enough to consider repurchasing! I just wish they'd create a moisturizing version for dry hair types.

Texture: Unlike regular soap, it has a unique shape that provides a good grip, making it easy to hold and use without slipping from your hands. Performance: It lathers up easily with just a little water, performing just as well as liquid shampoo. It creates a rich, abundant lather! Eco-friendly: It's definitely a plus that it doesn't generate any waste!
ConsFragrance: Unfortunately, the scent fades after a few days of opening, which is disappointing. Texture: Being a shampoo bar, it does leave your hair feeling a bit stiff when used alone. For those desiring softer hair, I recommend using a separate conditioner or treatment.

Being gentle on the scalp, I could use it worry-free despite my hair loss concerns. It has a similar feel to Lush products, but the scent is captivating! I love the subtle soap fragrance, and it even acts as a bathroom diffuser. It's safe for children to use too. The convenient storage makes me want to keep using it consistently.
ConsIt seems to lack in making hair silky smooth. While I'm satisfied with the clean ingredients and eco-friendliness, I think it's best to use an additional conditioner.
TipAt an age where every strand of hair is precious, I use an extra conditioner or essence to ensure my hair stays soft.

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. Overwhelming fragrance! The scent is amazing! (It doesn't linger on your hair after shampooing, but it's perfect as an air freshener in the bathroom and for aromatherapy while you wash!) It smells similar to Johnson's Bedtime. Personally, I'm totally in love with it. 2. Drying hook + Soap shape It comes with a drying hook, which is great. While I'm not sure how it'll hold up when it's almost used up, the wide strap helps prevent it from slipping out of your hands while shampooing. The convenience for drying goes without saying. 3. Gentle ingredients! My roommate with super sensitive skin raved about it. Even though their scalp reacts to the slightest bit of nourishing or functional ingredients, they said they want to use this again! They were satisfied with the gentle Andalou blue shampoo before, but they found this shampoo bar just as good with no issues at all! 4. Rich lather + Cleansing effectiveness The foam is incredibly dense, unlike regular soap. I wanted to capture it in a photo, but... it didn't turn out great, did it? Haha! But I can assure you, it really produces a rich, dense lather easily! I felt the cleansing power was sufficient, and as someone with a normal scalp, I was impressed that it cleaned thoroughly without causing any dryness-related issues like itchiness. 4_1. (Texture) Relatively moisturizing feel As mentioned above, I was very satisfied with how it felt. That's not to say it leaves your hair super soft after rinsing. The hair itself feels a bit squeaky clean, but surprisingly, it's definitely not as dry as you might expect from a soap! I dried my hair without conditioner, and it was softer than when I use regular shampoo alone... Does this bar have some conditioning ingredients in it?
ConsThis might be an unfounded worry, but I'm a bit concerned about how long the ring-shaped soap will hold up and maintain its function. Also, it's slightly disappointing that the lovely scent doesn't linger in your hair after shampooing. And while it claims to last several times longer than liquid shampoo, I'm not sure if that will actually be the case.
TipThe lather becomes even richer if you do a pre-wash, but it's satisfyingly foamy even without one!

The packaging is really minimal. There's absolutely no excess packaging, just the product itself, which means no waste - I loved that! It has a great grip, making it convenient to use. Unlike most shampoo bars that are round, this product is elongated vertically with a slight curve, designed for easy handling. The product has a loop attached, so after use, you can hang it to dry. It's like having an air freshener in the bathroom - I'm very satisfied with the lingering scent!
ConsI have relatively long hair, and perhaps because it's a soap-type product, I noticed that when washing my hair, the drier ends became a bit stiff and tangled. People with shorter hair might be able to use it without any issues. Also, despite being an eco-friendly product, I was a bit disappointed that the ingredients don't seem to be of the highest quality.
TipI used this product to thoroughly cleanse my scalp, and then used regular shampoo for the lower parts of my hair. Compared to using regular shampoo for the entire head, this method removed excess oil better, allowing me to reduce overall product usage and prevent tangling. Adding a treatment can help compensate for any potential dryness.
