Pros
I have a sensitive scalp. The formula is very runny! It's a slightly dark formula, and when you press the button on top, an 'ampoule?' comes out. The formula is almost as thin as a pencil, and because of that, there's no heaviness or stickiness in my hair at all, which I really liked. It finishes nicely and fresh, and I can apply it before bed or before going out, and it never makes my hair sticky. The scent is also nice! Often, scalp ampoules have a medicinal smell, but this product doesn't, and the strength of the fragrance is not irritating at all, which I enjoyed. From using it for a while, it seems to have a calming effect on my scalp. I mainly apply it to my hairline and part, and it soothes and seems to promote baby hair growth! It's also convenient to use, and I recommend it.
Cons
The product is quite runny, so you have to press the button while it's still touching your scalp! If you press it in the air, the ampoule will fall to the floor ㅜㅜ
Tip
It's great to apply it before your hair is fully dry after washing.

Pros
The usage is very simple. When you press the button at the back, a liquid-type scalp essence flows down from the opening where the massage ball is located. You can massage your scalp with the massage ball while absorbing the essence. You just need to gently rub it without getting it on your hands, which is convenient. You can feel a cooling sensation on your scalp right after applying it, and it helps lower the scalp temperature. I mainly massage the M-shaped hairline and the part area more thoroughly, and my scalp feels refreshed without any residue. After using it, my scalp produces less oil and my hair loss has decreased. I haven't experienced any troubles while using it, and although I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, it seems like the fine hairs along my hairline have become denser.
Cons
The container has an unknown remaining amount, and the price-to-volume ratio is staggering. The formulation is thin and absorbs well, so I tend to use it lavishly. If it goes on sale, I'll likely stockpile it.

Pros
The formula is very light and watery, so it doesn't cause any trouble even when applied to the hairline. And above all, the fragrance is absolutely wonderful.
Cons
I'm a bit concerned about potential hygiene issues, but there aren't really any other downsides.

Pros
The texture is light. Since it's a product to be applied to the head, I don't like it when it feels sticky, but this has a nice lightweight texture that's easy to apply. The usage experience was great. Many hair loss prevention products have an unpleasant alcoholic feel that makes the scalp feel hot, but this one wasn't overly stimulating at all. It absorbed well and left my hair feeling soft and fluffy afterwards! The fragrance was better than I expected! It has a subtle soap-like scent - not overpowering, with a slightly sweet note. Personally, I really enjoyed the fragrance and wanted to keep smelling it.
Cons
Given that the roller part that is applied comes into contact with the scalp, I do think there is a possibility of it becoming contaminated.
Tip
Don't press the eraser end of the pencil too hard. Gently press it, and the contents will come out little by little, allowing you to control the amount.

Pros
Personally, the portable mini flashlight or nose hair trimmer-like feel with the black and orange logo accent and outer case is quite refreshing. :-) It's a transparent and extremely thin ampoule type, but the finish is slightly sticky. However, on the scalp, it feels fresh and cool, and there is no sticky feeling. It has a floral scent like moringa mixed with a menthol aroma. ● It's great that I can massage with a roller without using my hands after applying the ampoule! ● The cooling sensation was the strongest among the products I've tried, and it lasts longer! ● The temporary heat and itchiness were reduced due to the cooling sensation after application! ● The product design makes it easy to carry around!
Cons
After washing and drying my hair, I applied the product evenly to my fluffy scalp, but later it felt a bit sticky and weighed down, which was disappointing. The ingredients include not only fragrance but also some concerning components, so that was disappointing as well. I'm not sure if it's effective in directly impacting hair loss.
Tip
After applying the ampoule, try massaging with a roller! Try using it when you feel heat or itchiness while carrying it around! If it doesn't look fluffy and seems to be unevenly applied over time during application, try adjusting the amount.

Pros
The original price was quite expensive, but I purchased it during a trial deal. When checking the Hwahae ingredient list, there are 20 main ingredients, and fragrance is one of them. However, fragrance is also found in basic skincare products, and without any scent, something feels a bit lacking. The pen can be rotated to adjust the open and closed settings. When applied, it has a slightly moisturizing and refreshing feel. It has a watery, essence-like texture, so it doesn't feel heavy or sticky even when applied to the scalp. Scalp essences with thicker textures can sometimes make the hair feel weighed down and tangled. I focused on applying it to the parted area and any itchy spots, and I do feel like my hair is shedding a bit less.
Cons
There doesn't seem to be any particular disappointing aspects or areas that need improvement with the product itself.

Pros
The formula was a slightly runny essence texture..? Anyway, since it wasn't an oil-based formula, I didn't have to worry about greasiness and could use it anytime. And it was in a pencil-like form, so it was easy to carry around. After using it, my hair felt moisturized, and when I massaged it in, it absorbed quickly. --------- This is a photo I took before rinsing it out. Can you see the difference between the two photos? The Hwahae Trial Reviewer's massage roller helped soothe my scalp, making it feel refreshed. I can't say with 100% certainty that the product is the reason my hair is falling out less, but I did feel like I was losing less hair when brushing my hair.
Cons
My mom tried it, but she had a hard time because the box didn't have instructions on how to use it. That part was a bit disappointing.
Tip
I found it more comfortable to massage the product into my scalp while drying my hair, as it left no liquid residue behind.

Pros
The biggest advantage seems to be that it can be easily applied with a pen-type roll-on. The formula was on the thinner side, and when applied to the scalp, it had a slightly cooling sensation. Typically, these types of products have a strong scent, making them difficult to use, but the scent was not that strong and was just the typical 'cosmetic smell'. After using it for about a week, I don't think I've seen significant effects. It's definitely a short period to review a hair loss pencil. I plan to continue applying it consistently, and if I see results, I'll include before and after photos later. However, I haven't experienced any side effects like itchiness or irritation on the scalp so far, and I've actually felt a sense of comfort and coolness on the scalp.
Cons
The formula was much thinner than I had expected. It would have been better if it was in a click-type format rather than a squeeze-type.
Tip
Since the formula is quite thin, it's good to first pump an appropriate amount onto the scalp and then massage it in with the roll-on ball attached to the container. This helps stimulate the scalp and feels refreshing!

Pros
👍🏻Texture: The ampoule was a bit watery, so it was easy to apply. I usually applied it before drying my hair, and the finish wasn't sticky, so it was also fine to apply after drying. 👍🏻Effectiveness: I used it together with the Aromatica Rosemary Root Enhancer that I've been using every other evening, so I think the effect was slightly enhanced. While my hair doesn't completely stop falling out, the amount of hair loss when washing my hair has definitely decreased. I didn't experience any side effects like breakouts while using this product, but I think I'll need to use it for a bit longer to see more dramatic results.
Cons
👎🏻Packaging: The product packaging was designed to be easy to apply. I just rolled it around on my scalp while watching YouTube. However, one thing I wish could be improved is that it would be great if there was a button at the back that could lock it in place, as I had to keep pressing it down while applying. 👎🏻Fragrance: Personally, I thought the fragrance was just okay. I found the ampoule to have a bit of a medicinal smell, which was fine when showering and applying it, but I wasn't too keen on that scent lingering on my scalp.

Pros
The packaging was so luxurious that I felt great even while unwrapping it :) The pencil-type applicator is very convenient as it doesn't get on my hands and I can just glide it across my scalp. I think the metallic ball contributes to the cooling sensation I feel when applying it, and I liked that I could massage my scalp while applying the ampoule. The ampoule formula is on the thinner side. It has a light black color, likely from the black bean extract. After washing my hair and applying the ampoule, followed by a cool blow-dry, my hair doesn't get weighed down and I feel like my roots have more strength (my scalp is dry and sensitive). As someone with a sensitive scalp, I often struggle when using ampoules or toners, but the Silky ampoule didn't cause any irritation or trouble.
Cons
The only downside is that the 2-week trial period may have been too short, as I didn't see a dramatic reduction in hair loss or anything like that. The amount of hair that falls out when I wash my hair seems about the same as usual.
Tip
I highly recommend applying the ampoule after washing your hair and then blow-drying, as that helps prevent your hair from getting weighed down.
