Daeng Gi Meo Ri Look At Hair Loss True Shampoo

The extremely sudsy True Shampoo harnesses a blend of plant extracts and oils (Ginseng, Cynanchum Wilfordii, Pomegranate, Aloe and Avocado) to supply nutrition to the scalp. Hair loss will be a thing of the past with the silicone free and Korean FDA approved formula!

Name: Daeng Gi Meo Ri 댕기머리 Look At Hair Loss True Shampoo 룩 앳 헤어 로스트루 샴푸액
Price: ₩ 15,900 for 500 ml
Made in: Korea

Unlike the other Daeng Gi Meo Ri shampoos that I have tried in the past (reviews here and here), this one doesn't smell like a TCM store. The floral scent is more commercially appealing, and I can see it being a hit with people who can't take really strong herbaceous scents.

I would have been a better judge of its efficacy should it arrive a month ago. I halved the length of my locks recently (not really but it feels like it), so I have not been losing as much hair in the shower, notwithstanding the use of the True Shampoo. It would have been nice to test the True Treatment and perhaps even mix and match with the rest of the range, the Angel and also the Maxi Treatments, for an all encompassing experience.

The large 500 ml bottle along with the attractive ₩ 15,900 price tag are reason enough to give every other road shop shampoo a run for their monies! For those with longer strands in possession of this shampoo, what are your thoughts on it?

Daeng Gi Meo Ri Luxury Special Hair Care Shampoo

Would you like to have beautiful hair, just like Han Chae-ah's? Well, Daeng Gi Meo Ri is here to help you realise your dreams!

Name: Daeng Gi Meo Ri 댕기머리 Luxury Special 명품 스페셜 Hair Care Shampoo 모발 관리 샴푸
Price: ₩ 27,900 for 500 ml + 145 ml
Made in: Korea

The Luxury Special Hair Care Shampoo uses a blend of extracts (Lily, Caulerpa Racemosa, Chlorella, fermented Pseudoalteromonas, Wilfordii Root, False Daisy, Hazelnut, Camellia), i.e. oriental magic, to strengthen, reinforce and revitalise damaged locks from the inside out.

It has a strong herbaceous scent; heavily laden with ginseng, cordyceps and their ilk. It can overwhelm the senses, which can be a boon and a bane (one man's meat is another man's poison). It is the type of product that you need to give a good sniff first before you buy it.

This shampoo is essential to keep my strands healthy. The amount of hair trapped in my bathroom's stopper has halved ever since I started using this shampoo and I can take longer in between clearing out sessions - I am my bathroom's only occupant so I get full control over its level of cleanliness *shifty eyes*

I read accounts saying that it is supposed to be used alone (no conditioner needed), but my mane needs more TLC than that! It leaves my tresses a little on the dry side so I have been pairing it with conditioners from Mandom's Moist Diane and also Kao's Essential (because they are all I have in my bathroom, haha!) to maintain my hair's softness and shine. Any conditioner will do the trick though!

This sulphate-free yet super sudsy shampoo comes in a pack of two: a large 500 ml bottle and a travel size 145 ml bottle. They are both a delight to have in any bathroom (the intricate details are swoon worthy!) and I can't fawn over them enough!

Daeng Gi Meo Ri Hair Cleansing Treatment

Of all of the products in my July BNTNews beauty box, I was most excited over this shampoo treatment. And with good reason!

Name: Daeng Gi Meo Ri 댕기머리 Hair Cleansing Treatment 자담화 더 퍼스트
Price: ₩ 35,000 for 250 ml
Made in: Korea

The oriental medicine inspired formula is infused with White Ginseng to provide strength, Silk Extract for firmness and a herb complex to moisturise the hair. I am but naming a few of them, there's a whole host of beneficial ingredients to follow!

You know the scent that greets you when you walk into the cosmetics section of a department store or even their high end boutique counterparts? Well, this treatment smells exactly like that! The brand says that this is the fragrance of wild flowers but to me it just exudes 'atas'-ness (sorry, mangling both Malay and English here).

It comes out from the tube an uninteresting reddish brown blob. It looks and feels rather like a conditioner due to its paste-like texture, and how well it retains its shape but once water is added in, it lathers up like a regular shampoo.

It cleanses beautifully without stripping away natural oils, leaving my locks soft, silky and manageable. I am usually plagued by the need to scratch my scalp (despite being flake free!) and with this shampoo, the urge decreased. I have also started flinging my hair about (like a deranged person) because then I get a whiff of the awesome fragrance, haha!

I use a generous amount each time. I really shouldn't and the reason is twofold. Firstly the ₩ 35,000 price tag. Got to make the amount given stretch! Secondly, it lathers really well. So well that nigglings of doubt began surfacing... is the one ingredient that I refuse to tolerate nestled among the jumble of Korean characters on the box?

Indeed it is! 소듐라우레스설페이트, or Sodium Laureth Sulphate as we know it, is second out of forty two. I almost teared up after I was done translating. Daeng Gi Meo Ri, why do you do this to me?! Perhaps I should check out their website for sulphate free options now that my plan of buying backups have fallen by the wayside?

If you don't mind sulphates, go grab this cleansing treatment off the shelves! Your mane will love you for it. Me? I am just going to sit in this corner and mope...
