Those who enjoy citrus woody scents will likely find the fragrance satisfactory as well.:) After washing my hair, the oil started to return after about 7 hours, which is reasonable for my oily hair type. And I didn't experience any itchiness.
ConsA shampoo cap is an essential product. You can buy one cheaply at Daiso, which would be a good option to use for a long time!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI normally only use shampoo without conditioner or treatment, and my scalp is neither oily nor dry. I've been using it for nearly ten days, and my hair texture is about the same as when I only used shampoo. It lathers up well with just a few rubs, so it's a pleasant washing experience. The most satisfying part is that I don't have to deal with an empty shampoo bottle. I just need to throw away the paper packaging when I use it. The scent is grapefruit, which isn't my personal preference, so I'm planning to purchase another scent from Dongubat to compare. Even just considering the reduced waste, I'm very satisfied with this product.
ConsI usually use a soap dish or soap net to avoid the soap getting too soft, but the Dongubat cloth soap net I have at home doesn't dry well, so I'm using a Daiso soap net instead. Thinking about microplastics, this part is a bit disappointing.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe product lathers up nicely with just a little water, and I'm glad it doesn't contain any recycled materials! The scent is said to be grapefruit, but I didn't really detect a strong grapefruit fragrance when shampooing. It's not completely unscented, but has a unique aroma. After drying, there is a pleasant lingering fragrance.
ConsSince I have a very oily scalp, the shampoo couldn't completely remove the oil buildup from the previous evening when I washed in the morning. I exercise frequently, so I was worried this product might not be suitable for my oily scalp, and sure enough, the oil started coming back just 3-4 hours after use. This product is truly meant for normal to dry hair types. Those with oily hair may be able to use it in the winter, but it's not the best choice for them.
TipI like to attach a plastic cap to the back of the soap bar. That way, the soap doesn't get too soft and mushy. When it gets a bit wet, the plastic cap from a pet bottle sticks right on and keeps the soap in good shape.

Fragrance: It says it's grapefruit scented, but I don't smell it at all. It has a typical natural cosmetics? smell. It's not unpleasant, but it's not fragrant either. 2. Lather: This is my first time using a shampoo bar, so I was worried if it would lather well. But it lathers really well. Just rubbing it on the scalp a couple of times creates a rich lather. Even on my oily scalp, the lather lasts for two days after washing. It's as good as a liquid shampoo. 3. Oily Scalp: I have an oily scalp, but this seems to be for normal to dry hair. Sure enough, the oil comes back the next day. Those with very oily scalps might find it gets greasy too quickly. Recommended for those with normal to dry hair. 4. Convenience: I use it without a separate holder, just placing it on the sink, and it's not inconvenient at all. The soap is firm, so it doesn't get mushy, and the shape is well-maintained.
ConsThere's just one thing - since it's a solid, if you don't wet the soap enough when first applying it to the scalp, some hair does fall out and the soap sticks to the hair. The soap formula is quite firm, so rubbing it on in a dry state doesn't seem right.
TipYou need to wet the soap sufficiently before applying it! Otherwise, your hair will fall out and get stuck to the soap ㅠㅠ And I found out it's made by a company that collaborates with people with disabilities. That's great 👍

With an environmentally friendly package, it is packaged in a paper box printed with soy ink on FSC-certified paper, and even has braille on the package so that anyone can use it without any inconvenience. The grapefruit scent helps remove scalp odor with its unique refreshing and crisp fragrance, while also making you feel refreshed. You just need to rub the shampoo bar on your wet scalp and hair to create a rich and dense lather. The strong lather doesn't easily dissipate, making it easy to cleanse every corner. If you are looking for a mild shampoo for scalp care and dry scalp concerns, and a shampoo that the whole family can use, I recommend trying the Donggubaht mild solid shampoo bar.
ConsSince you need to rub and create lather by hand or use a lather net, it may take more time and feel more cumbersome compared to squeezing and washing with a regular shampoo during busy times.
TipRecommend using a soap net. It is recommended to store and use it in a soap net to create sufficient lather and prevent it from easily melting.

I often use treatment or essence products as perfumes, so it didn't bother me. It wasn't too squeaky clean, and since it's for normal-to-dry hair, the oil didn't seem too difficult to wash out - it was great! This is my first time using a shampoo bar, and even with long hair, as long as I have the time, I can work up a good lather!
ConsThe fragrance isn't particularly special, and the lack of a storage case or mesh holder is a bit disappointing.
TipUsing it with a mesh holder would make it much easier to work up a lather and prevent it from getting too soft.

So I think using it as a pre-shampoo or using a grease-fighting shampoo bar would help resolve that issue! • The scent is described as grapefruit, but it has a dull, soapy citrus fragrance..? • Even using just a little, it produces an incredibly rich lather, which I liked🙂 • There's a slightly waxy feeling when massaging it into the hair, but after a few uses, it became smooth and easy to apply, and with continued use, I felt my hair getting softer! • So far, it hasn't caused any issues, and the fact that the only waste is the paper packaging is the best part.
Cons• The only downside is that the scent is more like laundry soap than grapefruit🥲
Tip✔️ For those with oily hair, using it as a pre-shampoo or incorporating a hair vinegar rinse would likely work even better!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst of all, I was very pleased that the package itself was made of paper, not plastic or anything like that! As soon as I opened it, I would say it had a grapefruit scent. I really liked the refreshingly cool and fragrant aroma. What I felt after using the shampoo bar for two weeks was that it lathers up really well!! It lathers just as well as regular shampoo!! And it's incredibly refreshing. It feels like it washes away the buildup (?) in my hair much better than regular shampoo!! It's also easy to use, and I didn't really feel any inconvenience. The scent is great, and every time I wash my hair, I feel so refreshed~~❤️ I tend to get oily hair, but after using this for two weeks, I felt like my hair wasn't getting as oily as before! And of course, it doesn't smell as much either. I plan to keep using it going forward ㅎㅎ
ConsThe disappointing part was that these days, people don't really use bars of soap much.. and there's not really a good place to store or keep it. But this one dries up quickly, and even though my bathroom is a bit humid, it dried up fast, so it was easy to store! This was a good point.
TipI'd recommend keeping it on a shampoo holder or a mesh bag when using it! Even without those, the lather still comes out well, but it's more convenient that way!!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros※Scalp Type Dry, sensitive to irritation 1) Fragrance The refreshing grapefruit scent is not artificial, and even after shampooing, the subtle grapefruit fragrance lingers on the hair, making it easy to use without feeling overburdened. It seems suitable for people sensitive to fragrances, but may not be suitable for those who want a long-lasting scent. 2) Cleansing Power After rubbing the shampoo bar a few times on the hair and rinsing with water, the lather becomes rich and dense, providing a pleasant user experience. Although I was skeptical about the pH-balanced acidic care and plant-derived safe ingredients, the abundant lather effectively cleansed the scalp of impurities, similar to regular shampoos. 3) Usage With ingredients like spinach powder, centella extract, camellia oil, and olive oil, the hair and scalp feel soft and moisturized after using the shampoo bar, without a dry, squeaky clean sensation, providing a satisfactory finish. 4) Volume The 120g shampoo bar is equivalent to 2 regular shampoo bottles, allowing for a total of 60 uses.
ConsSince it is a soap-type product, if a separate soap dish is not provided, there is a melting sensation, which is a bit disappointing.
TipIf you want more fragrance, using a hair essence or oil product with a scent would be a good idea.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe package is simple, but it feels like they've put thought into making it eco-friendly and even including Braille, which is nice. I've been using a different shampoo bar before, and it felt a bit stiff. Even when I lathered it up, the foam didn't seem to distribute well in my hair. This one, on the other hand, lathers up really nicely without even needing a lather net - the foam is thick and creamy, giving me a deep cleansing. The round shape is easy to grip, and it's bigger than I expected, which makes it even more convenient to use. The citrus scent is not for everyone, but I personally enjoyed it. I'd love to try their conditioner bar as well!
ConsThere is still a bit of that typical shampoo bar stiffness before using the conditioner.
TipMake sure to thoroughly wet your hair before using it - that will help the lather really come alive and allow you to massage it into your scalp for best results. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
