Usage experience👍 But! After trying the product, I was pleasantly surprised. It lathers well, and I was satisfied with how it cleansed my scalp while being noticeably less irritating. Scent ❌ The scent is almost non-existent, so even those with sensitive noses should be able to use it comfortably. Lastly, I love that it doesn't use plastic packaging! It's great to be able to consider the environment too 👍
ConsHaving used many rich shampoo types before, this doesn't leave that soft, nourishing feeling after use. Instead, it has strong cleansing power while being very gentle. It might be especially good to use before bed when washing your hair at night.
TipPutting the shampoo bar in a mesh bag really helps it lather up much better!

Lather: When you rub the shampoo bar on your hair using a mesh bag, it produces a lot of foam. Some shampoo bars don't lather as much as you'd expect, but this one creates plenty of suds, giving you that extra clean feeling. After rinsing, you can definitely tell that your hair doesn't get oily as quickly as with liquid shampoo, and it feels like you've cleansed thoroughly with quality ingredients. Scent: The fragrance is so subtle that it's hardly memorable. It's supposed to be grapefruit, but it's so faint and delicate that I don't think it would be a deal-breaker for anyone based on scent alone. Immediate results: I've tried many shampoo bars, and this one leaves my hair feeling particularly bouncy right after use. There's a noticeable difference even when using the same conditioner and routine. My hair might look a bit more textured, but if that's due to the natural ingredients, I'm not too concerned.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that my hair feels dry and lacks nourishment. When I used other shampoo bars, my hair actually felt thicker and stronger, so this is even more of a letdown. I think I'll need to use it for a longer period to see if there are any improvements.
TipAfter cleansing with the shampoo bar, I recommend following up with a conditioner to smooth things out!

As their sales increase, they hire more 'Gakkumjigi' (employees with developmental disabilities). Donggubaet is a plastic-free brand. Every time you use one of their soap bars, you're eliminating 16.2g of plastic, contributing to a healthier planet. It's truly impressive to see a company genuinely implementing ESG practices - they've definitely won me over! Ingredients ★★★★★ Donggubaet's Proper Shampoo Bar is perfect for those with dry skin and has a lovely grapefruit scent. It's a hit with natural beauty enthusiasts, free from chemicals like silicones and parabens, and made with natural ingredients. Fragrance ★★★☆☆ The best part! It reduces scalp odor! The grapefruit scent is refreshing and natural, not overpowering - just right for everyday use. It seems ideal for children and pregnant women. I especially love the subtle fragrance that isn't overwhelming. However, as someone who prefers a stronger scent lingering in my hair, I use a hair mist in addition to the shampoo bar. Design ★★★★☆ The elegant white packaging and simple round soap shape are impressive. It might remind you of laundry soap at first glance, but there's a certain sophisticated simplicity to it. The bar is easy to grip when using, which is very convenient. Cleansing Effectiveness ★★★★★ This shampoo bar lathers well, creating rich foam even with a small amount, effectively cleansing both hair and scalp. The natural cleansing agents work gently, removing oil and dirt without irritating the scalp. Hair Texture ★★★★★ The natural ingredients in the shampoo bar keep your hair healthy, leaving a subtle grapefruit fragrance. Your hair looks smooth, and amazingly, it doesn't get as tangled as usual. Convenience ★★★★★ Using the shampoo bar is straightforward and convenient. Just add a bit of water to your hands, rub the bar to create lather, and apply to your scalp. Store the bar in a dry place after use for long-lasting economy. Repurchase Intention ★★★★★ I hope this review has been helpful in providing information about Donggubaet's Proper Shampoo Bar for Normal to Dry Hair with Grapefruit Scent.
ConsUsing just the shampoo might leave your hair feeling a bit undernourished, as if it's lacking in oil. This is common with most shampoos, so I recommend using a conditioner or treatment along with the shampoo for best results.
TipPro tip: Use a 1000 won drain net or soap net from Daiso to create better lather. + Hang it with a clip to prevent sogginess and speed up drying.

I was a bit worried since it's a bar shampoo, but it foams up nicely. Another big plus is that it's plastic-free. I've been getting more environmentally conscious lately, so I've actually been looking into bar shampoos. The scent is pretty neutral, which I like. It doesn't linger after rinsing, so it's not overpowering at all. What I really appreciate is that even if I don't dry my hair completely or accidentally under-rinse, it doesn't cause many blemishes. That's a real bonus!
ConsI've noticed my hair has gotten thinner. It doesn't seem to provide much nourishment. With my previous shampoo, my hair felt stronger and thicker. It's like using this shampoo has just brought my hair back to its original state. Overall, it's just so-so.
TipPro tip: You can attach the plastic lid on the bottom for easy hanging storage!
