I've been using the old Shine Hair Vinegar for a while now, and I really liked the feel of this product. I especially love the pomegranate scent, so after using this I feel good and relaxed. The scent lasts until the next morning, and I feel like it helps reduce any unpleasant odors on my scalp. It also reduces stickiness and leaves my scalp feeling refreshed. In any case, my hair is smooth and smells nice after using it with a hair dryer. It lasted me over six months even when I use it once a week, so I think it's good value for money. I plan to buy it again when I run out!
I was curious about what it was, so I bought it. I applied it after shampooing and conditioning, massaged it in, and then rinsed it off. It left my hair feeling silky smooth!
I tried massaging my scalp, waiting two minutes, and then rinsing. The pomegranate scent was refreshing and my scalp felt clean. I wondered if I needed to use a conditioner afterwards, but after rinsing it, my hair felt a bit rough, so I did. My hair ended up looking really nice. I sweat a lot, so I wasn't sure what scalp care would be best, but it felt so good that I'd definitely like to buy it again.
I purchased this from Suzykirei to fix the color and eliminate odor after henna dyeing. When I smelled it after receiving it, I was worried because it had a very sweet scent. However, after rinsing it, I was relieved to find that the strange smell didn't linger. I was stressed by the grass-like smell of henna, so I was looking for something to eliminate it, and I found this! The odor was greatly reduced, and I'm very satisfied. I'll update later about the color fading. This product contains ingredients such as vinegar and Dead Sea salt, which are often used to fix color when dyeing clothing, so I purchased it as a trial. Henna containing indigo has a distinctive odor. I think this product will help me get through it! My method of use is to first rinse out the henna, then wash once with a natural amino acid shampoo. Then, I spritz a moderate amount of this on my hair, comb it through, leave it for 2-3 minutes, and rinse it off. It leaves my hair smooth and silky. It also leaves my scalp feeling refreshed and comfortable. I'll repurchase it when I run out.
It smells of vinegar while in use, but the smell disappears after rinsing. After drying, your hair will be smooth and soft to the touch.
