My First Review. =)

Hi everyone! This is going to be short review so that I won’t bore you. haha. Last Sunday, I bought myself the Shiseido Tsubaki Shampoo & Conditioner. I’ve been using Pantene’s High Shine for almost two months now and it seems to be drying out my hair and scalp.  I don’t think it’s because of the product, I think the reason why is because I’ve been using Pantene for almost two years now and I guess my hair can’t take it anymore. It’s too bad though ‘cuz I really like Pantene’s products especially their Midnight Expressions Shampoo & Conditioners.

I didn’t want to use any other drugstore brand (I tried them all!) and I remembered about Shiseido’s Tsubaki Haircare line. I found a place in Chinatown that sells it for $16.99CAD which I think is a pretty reasonable price. In T&T Supermarket they sell them for $25CAD! If you live in the Calgary area, you can find the Shiseido Tsubaki Haircare Line at the “Baby Face Skincare Products” store on the 2nd floor of Dragon City Mall. I bought the Golden Repair line which comes in a white 550ml pump dispenser and is used for dry, permed, color-treated and coarse hair. It also comes in a Red pump bottle too, the original version, which is used for fine, dry, and thick hair. With the white bottle it’s hard to tell which is the Conditioner and which one is the Shampoo. The owner of the shop told me that the bottle with the bumpy surface on the pump is the Shampoo. But you can also tell by the color of the container, one is more off white which is the conditioner and the Shampoo container is more white.

Shiseido Tsubaki line uses the extract of the camellia raticulata seed to help moisturize and rejuvenate dry brittle hair. Camellia oil has been used in Japan for generations to soften, smooth, and protect the hair and skin. I use the Oshima Tsubaki Camellia Oil for my hair, skin, and nails as well and it’s really great (I’ll review that next time). As for the fragrance, I find it to be very nice and not too overpowering. I have used this for two days and have seen a great improvement on my hair, even on the first try! My mom loves this too. =)
