Contains SLS to allow shampoo to foam well
Although said to be of botanical origin, this shampoo contains Sodium Laureth Sulfate and that is why it foams really well! My hair felt squeaky clean while I was washing it and I didn’t have to lather a second time at all. The great thing was that my hair felt really light after blow drying. I understand that the addition of Abietic acid coats hair and prevent the migration of sebum onto the hair shaft thus giving volume to the hair.
Grease free for half a day
My hair did indeed look bearable and not greasy for a good half a day but I still can’t keep my scalp completely grease free for a full day. I’m not sure if it’ll get better with longer term use because I read that the longer one uses Phytocedrat, the healthier the scalp and hence, the longer period of time one can maintain an oil-free scalp. I guess I have to wait and see.
Some of my gripes on Phytocedrat
So far however, I love using this shampoo. It’s the best of the shampoos I’ve tried and it helps my hair condition to a large extent. My main gripe is the ends on my hair do look a tad dry now especially since I don’t use conditioner. In addition, while the aluminium packaging is great but I wish they change the cap so that I won’t have to worry about spillage of the contents while pouring. And because it is liquid in texture, I must always remember to shake the content so that the ingredients do not settle at the bottom.
Does not contain 100% botanical ingredients
Anyway, Phytocedrat Sebo-Regulating Shampoo is not a 100% botanical shampoo. It has a really long ingredient list and while glancing at it, I spotted Tetrasodium EDTA besides SLS. But I’m fine with these for shampoos because without SLS, I’m not sure if I can maintain a clean scalp at all.
Phytocedrat Sebo-Regulating Shampoo is available at Guardian for S$28 but for S$30 at Watsons.
