It's great that you can apply it all the way to the scalp!
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad, but I wish they'd lower the price a bit considering the amount you get.

After shampooing, I applied the treatment, waited 2-3 minutes, then rinsed it out. I immediately felt my hair becoming softer. Even after drying, I noticed my hair was somewhat more manageable, and it seemed to reduce tangling as well. It's truly a suitable product for daily use without any fuss.
ConsThe scent isn't particularly special or noticeable, and it's almost completely gone after drying. Those who prioritize fragrance should keep this in mind. Compared to commonly available products, it's on the pricier side. Since I didn't really feel this product's merits, I find it hard to recommend or consider repurchasing.

The scent is pleasantly subtle. I usually dislike treatments that feel slippery or greasy, but this one isn't like that at all - which I'm very satisfied with. It's thicker and creamier than I expected. And the most amazing part? It's a treatment you can apply to your scalp too! Unbelievable... Until now, I've only used other products on the lengths and ends of my hair, leaving my scalp area dry with flyaways sticking up like antennas, causing serious static electricity issues. But with this, I can treat my scalp too, which significantly reduces static.
ConsThere's not much to dislike, except perhaps the price? It's a bit steep to purchase unless it's on sale.

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.ProsSkin Type: Except during the rainy season, I have extremely dry skin that requires applying a rich moisturizer twice a day. Compared to my teens and twenties, my skin has become progressively drier over time. In the past, due to incorrect use of dermatological ointments, I experienced dilated capillaries around my cheekbones, thinning skin, and developed hyper-sensitive skin. Currently, due to childbirth and childcare, I'm unable to maintain my regular exfoliation and mask routines, occasionally resulting in blemishes around my nose pores and chin where sebum gets trapped. 1. Scalp-friendly!!!! Wow. Just wow. I can't believe I didn't know about this product earlier. Thank you, Hwahae! I've been maintaining colored hair, and after cutting it short, I became hesitant to use treatments. I'd barely apply it to the ends, rinse carefully to avoid the scalp, then thoroughly rinse my whole head again... This tedious process often made me skip treatments altogether. But I couldn't bring myself to rinse carelessly, not wanting to clog my pores and cause inflammation on my already weakened scalp from repeated dyeing. But lo and behold, a treatment that can be applied to the scalp, focusing on hydration as much as nourishment, and even considering the oil-moisture balance of the scalp... While there have been anti-hair loss products for the scalp, to have an actual treatment, not just an essence... Thank you, Hwahae, for introducing me to this! 2. Hair Loss Prevention = Strengthening Scalp & Hair Roots As a mom in her late 30s maintaining colored hair, I experience significant hair loss. My husband would often tease me about going bald, seeing the amount of hair on the floor after drying. Then I discovered this treatment! After using it daily for ten days, on the 9th day, my husband remarked, 'There's hardly any hair today?' I also noticed less hair caught in the drain. While I didn't take photos (it's not exactly pleasant), it felt like the amount had reduced to about 3/4 of what it was on the first day! While there are many factors contributing to hair loss, and I don't expect dramatic changes from this product alone, seeing this difference over ten otherwise ordinary days makes me acknowledge its hair loss prevention capabilities. 3. Soft I've been using Ryo products for hair loss prevention and hair care, but while they made my hair look good, they left the roots flat as if I'd had a straightening treatment. This one doesn't do that! And it makes my hair soft too! Of course, Ryo might make hair softer, but it's silicone... and who likes hair that sticks to the scalp anyway? This level of softness is more than enough for a treatment to do its job. Scalp-friendly & hair protection -> Illisia wins hands down. 4. Texture Rich and creamy While most treatments feel like firm emulsions, this one is like a solid cream. Since it's applied to damp scalp and hair, if it were an emulsion like other treatments, it might become too runny when mixed with water and drip down to your face... This formulation only becomes creamy after meeting moisture, so it doesn't drip - it's perfect! I wonder if they deliberately calculated this formulation. I've taken a photo to show the pink capsules clearly~
ConsThe only downside is the price... I'll have to keep an eye out for discounts!
TipEven though it's silicone-free, you still need to rinse thoroughly. If you test it yourself, you'll see that the ingredients used to improve hair texture essentially 'coat' the hair. If not rinsed properly, while not as bad as silicone, it could still be harmful to the hair roots in some way. Make sure to rinse thoroughly as per the instructions!

First off, you can use it like a regular treatment, and personally, I love the scent. It has a rich texture, and even though I recently got a perm, my hair feels silky smooth after use, which is so satisfying. It's interesting to see anti-hair loss properties in a treatment - I don't think I've seen functional benefits like this in treatments before, usually just in shampoos.
ConsIf I were to purchase this product, I'd say it feels a bit on the pricey side!

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.ProsPeach-perfect info you should know: 1. My hair became super dry after turning 33. Before, it was silky with just shampoo, but now even functional shampoos leave it stiff. Sad mid-30s reality! 2. I've always had oily skin, including my scalp. Suddenly, my hair started smelling funky after just 12 hours, even with double cleansing. Heartbreaking! 3. Though I'm not worried about hair loss (thanks to genetics), I still freak out seeing hair in the drain. Started looking for anti-hair loss products just in case. My journey to Illicia Scalp Treatment: 4-1. Avoided silicones due to body acne. 4-2. Used only shampoo, no conditioner or treatments. 4-3. Found a great anti-hair loss shampoo, but it left my hair dry and tangled. 4-4. Decided to find silicone-free or low-silicone options. 4-5. Scoured The Hwahae Testers reviews (can't afford to buy everything myself). 4-6. Then, I found my perfect match... Recommendation? YES! 5. The scent is heavenly! Peachy and floral, it masks scalp odor beautifully. 6. No need to worry much about silicones, but rinse thoroughly. 7. After drying, hair is silky smooth and bouncy. Absolutely fantastic! 8. Perfect size, squeeze tube is great for travel. 9. Doesn't increase hair loss. Can't say it prevents it, but definitely doesn't make it worse. 10. No blemishes or irritation. Solves all three of my concerns, so highly recommended!
ConsIt's hard to find downsides when a product smells great, is silicone-free, eliminates scalp odor, makes hair soft, doesn't cause hair loss or blemishes. What's there to complain about? I didn't see the price (got it as a Hwahae Tester), so maybe it's expensive? Ingredient-wise, it's not perfect, but conditioners and treatments can't be. This one's pretty good compared to others. The pink packaging is a bonus. What can I say? I really tried to find cons, but there aren't any! Maybe check other Hwahae Testers reviews for downsides. For now, I've found my holy grail treatment!

First off, when I initially squeezed it out, the fragrance was absolutely delightful. I'm usually quite sensitive to scents, but this one had a subtle, natural floral aroma that was right up my alley. The texture felt a bit heavier and thicker compared to my previous treatment, but it made my hair feel incredibly soft when applied. On the first day of use, my hair felt slightly stiffer than usual, which made me skeptical. However, from the second use onwards, my hair became noticeably softer. With the recent dry weather causing havoc with static electricity in my hair, this product immediately tamed it, which was very satisfying. Despite having long, thick hair, the generous amount in the bottle goes a long way - a little goes a long way in covering all my hair. While it's too early to comment on any hair loss prevention effects, I'm extremely pleased with how it prevents tangling and static. This would be great for those with dry scalps to try out.
ConsWhile there weren't any significant drawbacks, if I had to nitpick, I'd say the price point and the fact that the fragrance doesn't last very long were slightly disappointing.

It absorbs well, and when rinsing, it combs through smoothly without any tangles, which I really liked! Usually, after shampooing and rinsing, the hair close to my scalp felt rough, making me feel like I was losing hair. With this product, the softness continues even when drying my hair, and overall, my hair becomes more manageable, which is great.
ConsSo far, I haven't found any downsides, but in my opinion, the price is a bit high for the amount you get, which might be a barrier for repurchasing.
TipMake sure to apply the product not just to the ends of your hair, but also to the hair close to your scalp. You'll definitely notice your hair becoming more manageable and tamed.

It contains small salmon-colored particles that blend well into the formula when massaged in. - User experience: The best part was how it felt on my scalp! I was initially worried about using both a scalp ampoule and treatment, fearing it might make my hair greasy. Surprisingly, my scalp didn't feel oily even the next day, while still maintaining hydration. Another great point is that unlike some scalp shampoos that can tangle hair roots due to their strong cleansing power, this treatment made my scalp feel soft. This resulted in less hair being pulled out during scalp massages or when using my fingers as a comb. - Scent: It has a floral scent with a hint of herbs. While some might dislike fragranced products, I found it pleasant as it helps mask any lingering scalp odors after washing. The scent is quite subtle, suggesting a low concentration of fragrance. Personally, I really enjoyed the aroma (I'm not a fan of strong scents).
ConsI don't have many complaints about the product itself. However, you need to use quite a bit to massage it into the entire scalp, which means it might not be the most cost-effective option considering the amount you get. Personally, I feel that using a reasonably priced wash-off scalp treatment followed by a leave-in ampoule would be the perfect scalp care routine. If this wash-off pack were more budget-friendly, it would be great for daily use.

I frequently use hair masks. Happy New Year! Today, I'm reviewing a hair treatment. 🎊Texture: Honestly, I was a bit surprised by the texture... Usually, hair masks and treatments are a bit oily and slippery, but this one is thick and dense like a winter barrier cream. 🎊Packaging: The packaging was excellent. 🎊Scent: The fragrance is very subtle and delicate. It's extremely faint with a floral hint. Personally, I love the scent. I'd be interested if it came out as a perfume! 🎊Container: The container is semi-transparent, so you can see the contents inside, as shown in the photo. Also, the back doesn't have lengthy explanations or ingredient lists - just a clean, simple package. It seems like packaging is becoming more minimalist these days. 🎊Rinsing: Before getting this product, I used P* from Olive Young... Comparing them, P* has a jelly-like texture, is a bit slippery, and has a nice scent. It rinses out moderately well. This product has a unique texture, and it leaves no residue when rinsing. Products with lots of oil often cause back acne when rinsing, but this one doesn't cause any back acne at all and rinses out perfectly. 🎊Price: It feels a bit pricey... but considering it doesn't cause blemishes and rinses out well, I think I'll repurchase. Though I might alternate it with other products.
ConsThe price is disappointing... Everything else is great, but... I also feel like I might use up the small amount too quickly..
TipApply it to the ends of your hair and put on a hair cap. In the meantime, brush your teeth and then rinse - your hair becomes super soft and smooth!
