Whereas most of the ingredients used were readily available from my local herbal store, the procedure was too complex for me. I’m still searching for a local trader who has dealt with this product and as such can vouch for it.
I find it quite challenging to use a new hair treatment product. This is because there are only a handful of consumers who have used the product and as such I cannot know if there are severe side effects that have been reported.
I concur. Even though the ingredients used in skincare products may be organic, they can still trigger allergic reactions. I’ve experienced such allergic reactions and as such stand by my comments.
