Himalaya Anti Dandruff

I finally had it with the dandruff! No matter how I wash my hair, somehow, the very next day, I can see dandruff and the hair get super oily by evening too. I was using Rejoice Anti-Dandruff shampoo but it seems to have very little effect. I was already thinking of going back to the medicated super expensive shampoo (don't remember the name. The bottle is blue!). Then, DD told me that her friends the Himalaya shampoos are good for dandruff and pretty cheap too, RM18+ per bottle.

By chance, I happened to passby a Himalaya shop while walking to Giant supermarket on Wednesday. I told my dilemma to the lady there and she recommended a few items and the price tag added up to RM50.

This is actually packed in a transparent zip bag. Handy to bring along if you are travelling.


Need to rub this into the scalp and leave it for a few hours. Instruction at the back says best to leave it overnight but I cannot stand the smell. Wash off with the shampoo after one hour! Pretty hard to remove. I need to lather the hair with shampoo two times before it is completely gone.


Not unpleasant smell from this shampoo. In fact, it smells abit like Johnson baby shampoo.


Have not used this yet. But was told to apply to the tip of the hair once or twice a week after the hair is dry from shampooing.

Overall, I am pretty satisfied with the product so far. I washed my hair on Wednesday after applying the oil. Washed my hair too yesterday but this time no oil. So far, no visible dandruff (yar, it was that bad) and no itch! I am glad to say that this is RM50 well spent money!

p/s: This is not a paid ad. Just sharing what I feel about this product.

To Do or Not To Do

As CNY approach, the typical conversation goes something like this:

A : Oooi, already get your new year clothes or not?
JenJen : Nolar, get abit abit nia.
A : Hahaha, same here. Get abit abit but already wear one time
JenJen : SAME!! haha! You going to do anything to your hair?
A : Ermm..still thinking lah. Maybe go highlight only.
JenJen : Think want to highlight my hair also. But the saloon price already increase lehhh because almost CNY liaw.
A : Yalor yalor! Some increase to almost double already!!
JenJen : Then I go do my hair after CNY lar!

Sigh~~!! Sometimes I really don't understand how did the 'tradition' of increasing prices closer to any festive season (esp Chinese New Year) come about. I mean, did the saloon taukeh niu (lady boss) woke up one day and decides that I will 'slaughter' my customers when it is nearer to CNY??!?! And how come we as the customer accepted readily the explanation for the price increase of the business owner as CNY liaw mahhhh....

Are we so vulnerable and timid that we just accept whatever that is thrown our way. I mean, why in the world did we not fight back and go on strike. Boycott those businesses that mark up their price just because it is festive season. Lets all not have our hair done for this CNY and just let everything hang natural! After all, God gave us beautiful natural hair. So why in the world do we want to change it???? Not only that, imagine all the chemical that is splattered on your head (where the brain is!!). And we are wondering why we are getting more and more stupid and absent minded!

Yar yar yar, I know, I am being idiotic and mumbling nonsense. But read between the line and you will see that there are some truth in what I said.......

Disclaimer: To all business owner, if you don't like what I have said above or feel that it is untrue, I would like to say .....................WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK!!! BLUEK!!!
