It is generally suitable for all hair types. The formula is designed for the hot and humid subtropical climate, with a focus on scalp cleansing, nourishment, and strengthening hair roots. It leaves a refreshing, residue-free feeling, with smooth and voluminous hair that isn't flat or sticky. For severely damaged, split, or dry hair, we recommend using your usual conditioner after washing or applying a small amount of hair oil to the ends before blow-drying. Cypress essential oil is gentle, and our formula is free from artificial fragrances and silicones, making it safe for adults and children. However, due to the essential oil content, we recommend diluting the amount or using baby-specific bath products for infants under 2 years old. If you have concerns, please consult a healthcare professional. Q4. What is the recommended usage? Do I need to use conditioner after washing? For daily cleansing, press the pump 2-3 times and lather onto a wet scalp and hair. Adjust the amount based on hair volume, prioritizing your personal experience. As this is not a "shampoo-conditioner 2-in-1" product, the formula focuses on scalp care and root volume, leaving hair feeling refreshed and smooth rather than "extremely moisturized." We suggest trying to wash without conditioner (or applying a little hair oil to the ends before blow-drying) to allow your scalp to breathe freely. After a period of care, you may find your scalp returns to its natural balance, maintaining smooth hair without excessive conditioning, and becoming less oily. For severely damaged, split, or dry hair, we recommend using your usual conditioner after washing or applying a small amount of hair oil to the ends before blow-drying. Q5. What are the differences between the new and old versions of the Cypress Essential Oil Shampoo/Body Wash? The new version has a more pronounced cypress aroma (40% more essential oil than the old version), while maintaining scalp freshness and enhancing hair moisturization for less frizz and easier styling. Additionally, the old version used only Taiwanese red cypress essential oil, whereas the new version blends both yellow and red cypress, Taiwan's most iconic forest essential oils. The new shampoo also includes ingredients like ginseng extract, ginger root extract, apigenin, and oleanolic acid for comprehensive care, from scalp purification to strengthening hair. The new body wash, while maintaining a refreshing feel, enhances moisturization with ingredients such as helichrysum extract, hyaluronic acid, and argan oil. Q6. Does Cypress Home Fragrance offer other bath products? Is the old version of the body wash discontinued? The same line includes the new Cypress Essential Oil Body Wash, the new Cypress Essential Oil Shampoo, and a Cypress Essential Oil Hand Wash Mousse for antibacterial hand care. A Cypress Essential Oil Conditioner is still under development and testing, so please stay tuned. *The classic cypress, cypress tea, rose, and wild ginger flower body washes from the old version have been discontinued as of 2024.
