Dyson Supersonic 吹風機值不值得? Airwrap 該不該買?


I had my aunt Ingrid in mind when whipping up this recipe. She’s been suffering from chronic hair loss for the past decade or so. Her hair has become fragile and frizzy, with her scalp sparingly visible. She’s tried various hair growth products, including masks, shampoo, supplements, and more. Since last year, she got hooked on no poo, which has not yet spread its popularity in Taiwan or in Asia. Being an advocate of no-poo and cleansing conditioners, I was so happy to have a no-poo comrade.

Unlike facial cleansing products, I find it helpful to add nutrients in hair or rather scalp cleansing products; as we tend to (or should) massage more during the hair cleaning ritual. In addition to the common B5 panthenol and vitamin E, I’ve added allantoin which helps to moisturize the hair & scalp and to soften keratin. I’ve also added coenzyme Q10 which has anti-aging effects on skin and hair. I’ve listed amino acid as optional as it tends to leave hair with a slightly grittier texture; however, given that my aunt’s hair has a frizzy and limp texture, I think it is beneficial. I have quite a lot of hair with medium texture and I don’t find the texture bothers me with the amount added.

I l-o-v-e menthol in my hair products, especially in the hot humid summer of Taiwan. Feel free to opt out if this is not your cup of tea. If you do decide to add as much as I do, please be careful when heating it as the fume may be quite strong and sting the eyes a little. Wear goggles - especially now - they protect your eyes as well as against COVID-19.

You can use this as an usual conditioner, especially with all the nutrients added; or as a cleansing conditioner as titled. I’ve been enjoying this recipe a lot, especially with how cooling it feels. Usually, you’d only find products this minty in men’s selections, which tend to be too drying for my scalp and my highlighted tresses.
