Hair care in Korean is very different from European, since women there are used to taking care of the condition of the scalp in the first place, and only then - for styling. In order to get the desired effect, you will need to better know the technology and master the tools used. The Korean system does not imply the use of a single drug, but a combination of a number of cosmetic products.

Peculiarities
Korean cosmetic products are known for their extraordinary formulations. Often it contains ingredients that cannot be found in European and domestic products. We are talking about broccoli, snake venom, ginseng root, pearl powder, mimosa, snail mucus extract and certain types of algae. European experts and cosmetologists assure that individual components in no way fit into European standards, moreover, they find them unsafe for the skin.
But Korean companies argue that these claims are slyness for Western brands, which are suffering losses due to strong demand for cosmetics from Korea.

Advantages and disadvantages
Let's start with the merits of Korean cosmetics.
- Excellent quality and performance. Korean cosmetic products boast good performance and quality, as manufacturers approach their creation with great responsibility.
- A wide range of products. The range of cosmetic products is striking in diversity. Sometimes the composition contains such components that, in general, cannot be found in domestic retail outlets.
- Design, pleasant in all respects, and comfortable packaging. This design is inherent in the bulk of Korean cosmetics.Bottles in the shape of apples, tomatoes, cats - that is just not found in online cosmetics stores from Korea.
- Availability... Another advantage of cosmetics from Korea is its affordable price. It is within the means of almost everyone, without exception.

But there are also disadvantages.
- The main disadvantage is the narrow focus... The products are designed mainly for the Asian type of hair and sometimes are not suitable for Europeans. In Korean women, the aging process goes differently, therefore, the recipe may simply not have an effect on the hair of Russian women.
- Another drawback is translation problems. Few know the language and can thoroughly learn the composition. In addition, it is not easy to find the right tone, since there is no palette from which you can choose a color live. You need to be guided by the picture on the box, which are not always accurate.
- You need to be well versed in brands. As in other countries, Korea has a lot of low quality cosmetics.

Deep nutrition
Korean women love to practice nourishing hair masks once every 7 days. And in order for this tool to perform the assigned task, it must be held on the hair for 10-15 minutes.
Apply it to clean, wet hair instead of a simple conditioner, and after a certain time rinse off with plain water.

Acetic rinse
Apple cider vinegar is the most readily available hair booster. The innate pH of the scalp and hair is in the range of 4.5-5.5, while most shampoos have an acid-base balance of pH 7+. In this regard, vinegar-based rinses are beneficial for the skin - when combined with water, they maintain an optimal pH.
