Cons- Since it's not a pump type, when I tried to use more by putting the foam on my hands, the foam got all over the shampoo bottle, which was inconvenient. - The foam doesn't lather much. When I tried to add a bit of water and work up the foam, it felt like the foam was disappearing instead, so it took some time to get a good lather, so I ended up not using it in the mornings. - While it's a matter of personal preference, the grapefruit scent is not as refreshingly tart as I had expected. It's more of a grapefruit scent mixed with a slight medicinal (?) smell. It's kind of like the grapefruit flavor of cold medicine or ibuprofen syrup. - While it makes the scalp feel cool and tingly when it touches water, like a medicated ointment, it stings if it gets in your eyes or on your face. You have to be careful when using it. - This shampoo seems to be more focused on the scalp rather than the hair, so for damaged hair, it makes it very dry and frizzy.
TipSince it's not a pump type, when I tried to use more by putting the foam on my hand, the shampoo bottle got covered in foam, which was inconvenient. The foam doesn't lather much. When I tried to add a bit of water and work up the foam, it felt like the foam was disappearing even more, so it took some time to get the foam going, so I ended up not using it in the mornings. It's a matter of personal preference, but the grapefruit scent is not as refreshingly tart as I had expected. It's a grapefruit scent mixed with a bit of a medicinal (?) smell. It's like the grapefruit flavor of a cold medicine, like ibuprofen syrup. While it makes the scalp feel cool and tingly when it touches the water, if it gets in the eyes or on the face, it stings. You have to be careful when using it. It seems to be a shampoo focused more on the scalp than the hair, so damaged hair ends up feeling very dry and brittle.

Used Shodu 5 times After washing, the hair doesn't feel weighed down and the roots feel more voluminous and alive. I tie my hair up all day and even by the time I get home, there's still some volume left, not overly so though Compared to my previous shampoo (mixed use of oily and neutral), there's less hair fall Compared to my previous shampoo, there's less greasy feeling in the evening The lather is good, not too dense, and rinses off the scalp well. I was worried about the cleansing, but since it's not too oily, the cleansing seems fine Safe ingredients The ingredients and cleansing are good, not dramatically different, but the hair feels more voluminous and although I was skeptical of the fancy name at first, after using it 5 times now, I'm quite satisfied with it. If you have an oily scalp and hair that gets weighed down, I'd recommend giving it a try.
ConsAfter first use, the crown area felt dry and itchy My previous oily scalp shampoo would make my scalp very itchy the next day, this one has a similar but milder effect From the second use onwards, it was fine However, as it cleanses well, daily use may dry out the scalp It's a runny type, so a lot comes out The fragrance disappears after washing and drying the hair
TipMassaging the scalp rather than just the hair works better for cleansing effect. Using this and my regular neutral shampoo on alternate days helps reduce the dryness on the crown area

On the second day, my hair looks well-groomed. On the third day, it's a bit oily, and my scalp is a bit sensitive, so if I use an incompatible shampoo, pimples or dandruff can appear. It seems that my scalp is becoming drier as I age. 💛 The cleansing power is good. My scalp feels clean. The slightly greasy feeling has turned white. And when I touch my hair, there's a smooth, soft feeling? The dandruff that had gradually appeared due to dryness has completely disappeared. 💛 The root volume is maintained. I'm the kind of person who doesn't even use conditioner because I really dislike it when my hair gets too flat. The shampoo alone keeps my scalp from getting weighed down and keeps it lively. Good~ 💛 I used to try the no-poo method before, but I gave up after about 6 months. I realized that going completely no-poo is difficult, so I started using shampoo again, but the frequency of use has decreased. I think it would be very helpful to maintain a nature-friendly lifestyle pattern, as the second ingredient after purified water is fermented and filtered loofah fruit extract. As you go further down the ingredient list, the proportion of natural extracts becomes higher, so the more natural the better, right? That's why it's great for those who want to avoid surfactants or maintain a nature-friendly routine. 💛 It helps with hair loss. I don't think shampoo alone can prevent hair loss. Diet and age are also important factors. But some shampoos cause a clump of hair to fall out as soon as you lather it on. However, anti-hair loss shampoos seem to have less shedding. From that perspective, when I used it, the amount of hair that fell out while washing was just the normal daily amount. I think it helps with hair loss.
Cons🤍 For those who value fragrance, this might be a bit disappointing. To me, it has a faint popsicle-like scent haha. But you know how the fragrance from shampoo tends to disappear during the drying process? Since it's not an artificial fragrance, your hair might start smelling a bit the next day. I wouldn't recommend this for teenagers haha. 🤍 If your hair is quite damaged from perms, this shampoo might cause some tangling. And trying to work up a lather with your hands is really difficult haha. Even with your hair thoroughly wet, the foam doesn't seem to get that rich and creamy. (Some people have used a lather brush to get a nice, thick foam. That's something you can try if you want.) Since it's quite watery, it's hard to work up a good lather with your hands, so you'll need to just apply it directly to your hair. 🤍 There was a bit of scalp itchiness. I'm not sure if it's because of the strong cleansing power or if it's because my scalp is getting drier. But when I had the humidifier running strongly in the room, the itchiness went away, so it seems to be a dryness issue. I think it can vary from person to person.

Compared to when I used my previous shampoo, I felt that my hair looked a bit better when I just used this shampoo!! 2. Since I have dry hair, I don't wash my hair every day, but once every two days. Unlike my previous shampoo, after fully washing my hair and wrapping my wet hair in a towel, I felt a bit more refreshed! (This is a subjective feeling) 3. If you're a Hwahae user like me who doesn't wash your hair every day, I recommend the sulfur shampoo as it can thoroughly cleanse your hair when you wash it.
Cons1. It's not a pump, so you have to squeeze it directly into your hand, and since the formula is a bit runny, adjusting the amount was a little difficult. 2. It doesn't produce a lot of lather, but since I don't really care about big lather, it wasn't a big deal for me. 3. The scent is slightly tangy, like lemon or orange, but the longevity isn't very strong, and it gets overshadowed by the conditioner or treatment I use afterwards (though I don't think the shampoo scent is extremely good either).
Tip✅Since the amount can be difficult to adjust, it's a good idea to be careful when you first use it!!! ✅I'd recommend this to users who want to directly care for their hair and scalp, rather than for the fragrance or additional features.

The scent was a bit sharp at first, but after rinsing it off, a refreshing fragrance emerged which I enjoyed. Compared to other oil-control shampoos, this one didn't leave my hair feeling stiff when rinsing. Even without using a conditioner, my hair felt softer than with other shampoos. After not washing my hair for two days, I felt it was less greasy and didn't develop any dandruff. I would consider repurchasing this product.
ConsThe shampoo was a bit runny, so when I closed the cap after squeezing some out, it dripped down. Since it's not a pump bottle, but has a cap, it was inconvenient to use. The lather was abundant, but it quickly disappeared when applied, which was disappointing. As a result, I ended up using more of the shampoo compared to others. The refreshing scent didn't last very long, which was a shame.

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🌟The hair has become stronger and more voluminous, indicating healthy scalp and hair. 🌟The hair ends are less dry and frizzy. 🌟The scalp dandruff has improved. 🌟The lather lasts well. <Scalp and Hair Improvement Effect> : Effective in improving root volume and giving the hair a glossy appearance!! As I have dry skin, I always had white flakes on my scalp and my hair felt dry and frizzy, especially during seasonal changes and the dry winter. I tried various products, including scalp shampoos and oil massages, to improve the dryness, but the flakes only reduced slightly. (Other brand products) I used this shampoo with low expectations, as I was unsure if the sulfur would be effective. But after using the sulfur shampoo, the flakes completely disappeared! My scalp seems healthier, and my hair has become more voluminous and the ends feel stronger and more nourished, even without using a hair essence. There is also a cooling sensation, possibly due to the exfoliating effect. The sulfur was not just hype - I highly recommend this to anyone struggling with scalp flakes and lifeless hair! <Lather> : Good lather, definitely more than other anti-dandruff shampoos. Other scalp and anti-dandruff shampoos didn't lather well, making it difficult to use. But this shampoo lathers nicely, making the shampooing process easy. Some reviews mentioned the lather wasn't great, but as someone who has used other anti-dandruff shampoos, I feel the lather is much better than regular shampoos and significantly better than other anti-dandruff ones. <Ingredients> : Good. It's stated that only good ingredients are used, and I didn't experience any irritation or discomfort while using it. <Texture> : Flowing texture The texture is not thick and flows well, making it easy to apply without any inconvenience.
ConsThe sulfur smell was a concern, but this shampoo didn't have the pungent sulfur odor. However, it seemed like a stronger scent was added to mask the unpleasant smell. The fragrance is a mix of honey grapefruit black tea and menthol, almost like a medicinal smell. The scent itself is not particularly pleasant and has a harsh quality to it. However, it's better than the sulfur stench, and the scent doesn't linger too much on the hair. While I was satisfied with the scalp improvement effects, I would not recommend this to those who cannot tolerate the strong fragrance.
TipAccording to the instructions, it is recommended to leave the shampoo on for about 2 minutes before rinsing it off. Doing so seems to make my hair feel more refreshed and enhance the effectiveness.

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.ProsThe fragrance contains grapefruit and menthol notes. As someone sensitive to artificial fragrances, I did not find the fragrance of this product to be overpowering. After shampooing and drying, the fragrance mostly dissipates. However, I noticed that the fragrance starts to linger a bit after using the product a couple of times. The product is said to contain 3,000 times the amount of sulfur found in hot springs. I initially had a slight impression of being in a hot spring due to the sulfur fragrance, which I personally found familiar as I enjoy hot springs. (The sulfur fragrance was no longer noticeable after the second use, possibly due to desensitization.) From the fourth use, I could clearly see the shine and vitality in my hair. The product has a clear, orange-like, watery body wash-like texture. The cleansing power was satisfactory, and I did not experience the dryness on my scalp that I sometimes feel with other shampoos. I appreciate that this product prioritizes scalp health. Additionally, as someone sensitive to strong fragrances in hair products, I was satisfied with the subtle and non-irritating fragrance of this product, both during and after use.
ConsThe foam was less abundant compared to regular shampoos. The foam also didn't last as long. However, the foam volume and persistence didn't significantly impact the cleansing power. (Similarly, foam cleansers don't necessarily need abundant foam for effective cleansing) Due to these characteristics, I tended to use slightly more product than usual. I used about 12 milliliters per application (for hair length down to below the shoulders).
Tip🤗 The sulfur shampoo is said to be helpful for the scalp, so after applying it to the scalp, thorough scalp massage (the instructions say to massage for about 1 minute) helps the sulfur components penetrate the scalp well. 🤗 If your hair is very dry and split, after shampooing and drying, apply essence oil, body lotion, etc. to the ends of your hair. If you apply the oil or lotion when there is still a slight moisture, the product will be absorbed quickly and evenly throughout.

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.Pros🌼Texture Unlike other nutritional shampoos that are often sticky and heavy, this one has a watery texture. 🌼Fragrance While it's labeled as a grapefruit scent, it actually has a refreshing citrus-like aroma that is sweet and tangy. 🌼Usage Experience With its watery texture, it's easy to lather up when applying it. The shampoo feels cooling on the scalp, likely due to the menthol ingredients. 🌼After Use Many scalp shampoos can leave the hair feeling stiff after rinsing, but this product doesn't make the hair feel that way.
Cons🌼Packaging The packaging is a pump dispenser, which can be a bit inconvenient when trying to dispense the product. 🌼Precautions Due to the fluid texture, it's easy to accidentally dispense too much, which can cause the product to drip down. Careful dosing is required. 🌼Fragrance Longevity As this is not a perfume-focused product, the fragrance is not particularly strong or long-lasting. It's a basic, straightforward formula.
Tip🌼Helpful Shampoo Technique Since the lather isn't very abundant, I found it helpful to do a pre-shampoo, using about a third of my usual amount, and gently massaging it over my whole head. Then I rinsed and applied the full amount, focusing on the scalp. This created a richer lather and more thorough cleansing. Also, I let the lather sit for about 3 minutes while brushing my teeth, allowing the beneficial ingredients to be fully absorbed into the scalp. 🌸Recommended Hair/Scalp Type As someone with an oily scalp and lacking moisture in my hair, I've tried many shampoos. This one seems perfect for me, as it provides thorough scalp cleansing and anti-hair loss benefits, while also nourishing the hair. Even on mornings when my scalp gets oily, I noticed it didn't get as greasy by the evening. 🌸Repurchase Intent 🙆♀️🙆♀️🙆♀️Yes, I would repurchase this. After using it for about a week, I've found it to be very effective for my needs. I think it will be especially great for the summer months.

As I have an oily scalp, the oil usually builds up a lot within about 20 hours, but after using this, even after 24 hours, my hair doesn't look overly greasy. ㅎㅎ And on days when my hair gets really oily, I usually do a pre-shampoo, but even after intentionally letting my hair get very oily and then using this just once, it felt like it thoroughly removed the scalp impurities. 🍊 Lather The shampoos I've used in the past that marketed themselves as good for the scalp and hair loss often didn't lather well, but this product lathers up really nicely! So I ended up using a bit more than a 500 won coin, but the lather was easy to create and it lasted well even during scalp massage. 🍊 Ingredients As I mentioned earlier, the shampoos that market themselves for scalp and hair loss tend to make the hair feel stiff over time... But this doesn't seem to be the case with this product. ㅎㅎ I have severely damaged hair, so I can't say for sure that my hair has improved because I haven't used it for very long, but I can say that my hair hasn't gotten worse from using this shampoo!
ConsThe reason I want to write about the good points of the orange scent is because the grapefruit scent is mainly present. The grapefruit scent is there, but it's a grapefruit-scented air freshener. At first, I thought it was nice, but it seems to give me a slight headache. And although I can't smell my own hair, the lasting power of the grapefruit scent is questionable. The sulfur component is good in that it's not an overpowering scent, but I think it will divide opinions a lot. The container is not a pump type, so even though the shampoo is already thin, I have to turn the container upside down to get it out, which is a bit of a hassle. Since it's not a pump type, it's a bit messy.
