The Japanese wrap up sanitary pads to hide the fact that you've bought some, so I guess I could understand that. Ah, that’s an interesting perspective.

People might be embarrassed about having a shampoo that declares its owner's hair to be sub-par. I used Tsubaki when I was in Japan, but I don't know how to choose a shampoo. ”本日の女性は美しい！” I think they don’t label the types like, “dry, damaged” etc because of the Japanese tendency towards hyper image consciousness.

Thanks for stopping by and do head over to my other blog, http://www.beauty-box-online.com if you want more info on Japanese products. :) Another shampoo I would recommend is Shiseido's Tsubaki. Smells lovely and makes your hair smooth. I find Free & Free Damage Aid serum is pretty good.

I've been in Asia five years and was always just using whatever cheap shampoo I could find ... until I went back to the States and wondered why my hair was suddenly softer. When I headed back to China I figured the cheapo stuff was probably not a good idea so went upscale, to the Japanese brands (yes, even the cheapest drugstore Japanese brands are luxury products here). Started with Free & Free Damage Aid in the red bottles which is very nice but hard to find and moved onto Asience, which is all right but not as good as F&F. After reading this post and many other rave reviews of Shiseido Super Mild decided to give it a try, so I marched down to the local Watson's ... and when I took a shower realized I'd picked up a bottle of conditioner, not shampoo (there was nothing but Japanese on the front of the bottle, so I'd just chosen the bottle according to the label in Chinese on the shelf. Obviously the bottle was not in the right place. Sigh.) Glad I came across this site!

I happened to stumble into your blog. Shiseido... I don't think I've seen it before, but I'll keep a lookout. Finding a good shampoo took me years. Asience sucks, haven't tried Tsubaki before and I'm all hooked when I've tried Segreta. Hi! I happened to stumble into your blog.

I guess the ah lian salesgirls at Sasa know a thing or two. I never thought of that but I think it's quite true — the weather here is drier also, plus all that colouring and perming, women here need more moisturising shampoo..... hmmmmm..... Their face stuff here is divided into "Light" (for normal/oily) and "Moisturising". At least there is a choice in this category! Super Mild smells lovely, too!

(Let's just say I was suckered in by the ah lian salegirls at Sasa). I find it good because unlike most other Jap shampoos, this one is not as rich and heavy. The Japs probably only have one "type" of shampoo because the local folks only need one. With their fashionable and fancy colouring, styling, rebonding and perming etc. surely they all have one type of hair condition - Dry / Damaged!
