In need of a miracle solution for your severely damaged hair? Treating and maintaining our hair well is no small feat (great hair comes with great responsibilities), but Tsubaki’s Premium EX Intensive Repair range makes it look effortless.

Styling, colouring, perming, and straightening our hair can make us more confident of our overall appearance or seamlessly express our personalities better. However, there’s no question that doing all that to your hair damages it, especially if you’re not aware of the fine print like products or equipment used.

So we head out and seek products that can solve our hair problems, but are we selecting the right formulas to address the root of the problem?

Why Tsubaki’s Premium Ex Intensive Repair range is the ultimate solution for your damaged hair

It can be quite a challenge to find the right shampoo and conditioner for your damaged hair struggles.

You’ll realise that most options in the market only coat the exterior of the hair and cause sticky, greasy hair after use instead of nourishing and actually repairing your hair from within.

Not to mention how some of us don’t have the luxury of waiting for some conditioners to work their magic.

About Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner

One of the many benefits of Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner, other than the fact that K-pop star Krystal Jung uses it to achieve her lustrous hair, is their ability to offer salon-quality hair in the comfort of your home with zero waiting time.

Unlike most treatment conditioners you can find on the market, you won’t need to wait for the product to settle into your hair before washing it off — you’ll witness results that are as effective or even more so than your usual hair care products.

With the products’ Damage Sensor Technology and first-ever Ionic Repair Ingredient, the Premium Ex Intensive Repair range can transform even the most damaged of hair into silky, strong, and healthy locks.

The Damage Sensor Technology ensures that the perfect amount of nutrients is delivered to only the damaged areas that require them. Meaning to say, your hair will be instantly repaired without the worry of the product resulting in greasy, heavy hair.

And its first-ever Ionic Repair Ingredient works to fortify protein bonds in the hair; repairing your hair shape from deep within each strand for smooth and damage-free tresses.

In addition to being infused with Japan-grown camellia oil (Japan’s best-kept beauty secret), the Premium Ex Intensive Repair range contains nourishing Golden Repair ingredients like glycerine, soy protein, pearl protein, amino acids, and royal jelly.

These natural, hair-loving ingredients serve as moisturising agents to reveal softer and shinier hair.

Hair concerns: Frizzy and unruly hair with split ends

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

I don’t use shampoo or conditioners for frizzy and damaged hair, but I’ll continue to use Tsubaki’s Premium EX Intensive Repair products. It’s fuss-free yet luxurious. I loved the pleasant yet not overpowering Camellia scent, the ingredients used, and their ability to be absorbed into my hair quickly.

The texture of the products was slightly jelly-like and worked smoothly into my hair. I like how there are natural ingredients that are beneficial for healthy hair growth and maintenance.

After a week of using both products daily, I found that the pleasant fragrance of the shampoo was subtle and lasted even after a whole day of work. Especially with the treatment conditioner, my hair seemed to be glistening and definitely more moisturised even after I dried and styled it.

My hair is also less tangled and damaged now with split ends that are less obvious; I can easily comb through with my fingers from the top to the ends without any hair getting stuck midway.

Overall, my hair feels visibly smoother and moisturised, all without the usage of any hair oil!

I think the Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner is a cost-effective option if you’re seeking a luxurious, salon-like hair treatment without having the luxury of time to book a salon session.

I wouldn’t say that my frizzy hair is entirely gone, but using it for a week has reduced it noticeably.

Hair concerns: Frizzy and unruly hair

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

With this pair of hair products that focus on intensive repair and transforming hair into a healthier state, I can achieve salon-worthy effects on my hair at an affordable price. I like the lovely scent that lingers, how gentle yet effective the products are, and the fast repairing technology.

The shampoo and treatment conditioner foam up well and clean my hair thoroughly without drying it out. Plus, the combination of both products helps the Camellia scent last longer and makes for a relaxing shower.

My long, thick hair is less unruly, less rough, and the frizziness is tamed now. The treatment conditioner is really effective at smoothing and repairing my hair immediately — my fingers don’t get stuck in my hair when combing which prevents me from tugging at my scalp.

And I don’t have to wait before rinsing it off, as compared to other products, nor do I need to use leave-in hair conditioners. I can achieve frizz-free hair with just this one treatment conditioner.

After using the Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner every day for one week, my hair is softer and feels stronger while looking smoother and shinier. I look more put-together, as though I spent time styling my hair!

I have also been more creative with clipping and tying my hair in different styles because it looks good in any way.

Hair concerns: Dry, frizzy, and unruly hair with split ends

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

My hair is so shiny and smooth now! Believe me when I say I did not use any combs during the 1-week trial of using the Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner. I literally could just rely on my fingers to comb my hair.

I was surprised by both products when I first used them. The shampoo’s light floral scent is not overpowering and lingers on.

My scalp also remained fresh after a long day at work. I could easily run my fingers through my hair while rinsing without tugging on any tangled hair, which is quite rare as most shampoos are not hydrating enough for that to happen. It’s great for detangling hair easily and I could see less of my hair falling onto the ground!

Meanwhile, the treatment conditioner seemed unassuming at first, but after lathering onto my hair and rinsing it off, I realised how it’s made different from the rest.

I tend to get lazy when I encounter conditioners that are hard to wash off or those that leave a heavy, weighted feel after use, but not anymore!

Tsubaki’s treatment conditioner is so easy to use. Just a few tousles under running water to rinse off the product and I’ll have soft, smooth hair.

The shampoo is amazing and instantly effective on my hair from the very first use, and it gets better throughout the week.

The treatment conditioner smoothens my long, frizzy hair and lets me achieve the same results as when I use a hair oil or leave-in treatment (but minus the hassle of an extra step)!

Hair concerns: Frizzy and unruly hair with split ends

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

I like how light both products feel on my hair and how my hair doesn’t feel greasy or overwhelmed even after a whole day. The lovely floral scent was a plus in making showering a therapeutic experience.

I usually use a hair mask on a daily basis to detangle and get smooth hair but will have to wait a while. The treatment conditioner’s zero waiting time is great and convenient.

It’s also effective in smoothing my hair — just two pumps, instead of three, from the bottle are more than enough for me. It also has the perfect texture and lathers well.

I feel happy using Tsubaki’s Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner and am confident with my smoother hair texture.

Hair concerns: Dry, dull, frizzy, unruly, and colour-damaged hair

I really enjoyed the Premium EX Intensive Repair range and recommend it as it makes shampooing much more enjoyable due to the scent and aesthetic packaging. Both products were very easy to use and had quick, visible results.

The shampoo’s hydrating for the hair while the treatment conditioner makes me feel like I’m using a luxe and premium product which elevates the entire experience.

Compared to other products I’ve used before, where you have to wait for the product to take effect, Tsubaki’s treatment conditioner leaves my hair feeling soft and smooth upon touch after use. It’s very fuss-free and reduces my bath time.

It’s also packaged in a bigger bottle than my usual conditioner, which makes it better value for money.

Previously, my hair was dry and very frizzy. After using both products daily for a week, I noticed how my hair is more tamed, easier to manage, and less frizzy. It was also easier to dry and comb my hair since it doesn’t get tangled up anymore after showers.

I’m so happy with this line of products! Not only does it surpass all expectations of repairing my frizzy and coloured hair, but it also smells SO luxurious, like you’re in a premium spa! It’s a treat!

The products are very effective and my hair is less frizzy and a lot smoother after just one wash. Many shampoos have this issue that after use my hair feels dry. But with this shampoo and conditioner, it feels like a professional salon wash in my own home!

I don’t use conditioners as I personally hate taking too much time in the shower, especially because I’ve eczema and taking too long in the shower will dry my skin. So the fact that I can wash the conditioner off right away is extremely helpful and hassle-free!

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

I love the sleek, matte black bottle and I could feel my hair getting smoother after each wash for a week! I can run my hands through my hair now. It doesn’t tangle as easily, doesn’t feel as frizzy as before, and looks a lot healthier!

Hair concerns: Frizzy and colour-damaged hair

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

Tsubaki’s Premium EX Intensive Repair range is an excellent choice for anyone looking to repair and nourish damaged hair.

The products have a pleasant floral fragrance that is refreshing and not overpowering. I love it. And the packaging looks aesthetically pleasing and like a high-quality product.

The shampoo lathers well, effectively cleanses, and doesn’t strip my hair of its natural oils; my hair feels nourished and doesn’t break off as easily as before.

The treatment conditioner is very effective and super time-saving. I literally don’t need to use a comb. It is indeed more convenient as compared to the usual conditioner.

I don’t plan on repurchasing my previous shampoo and conditioner as my hair still looked dry and frizzy using them. With Tsubaki’s treatment conditioner, my hair is looking and feeling its best! The formula deeply moisturises and leaves my hair soft, smooth, and shiny.

Hair concerns: Frizzy, unruly, colour-damaged, and heat-damaged hair

Tsubaki’s Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner has nice packaging, a good texture, and makes the hair less frizzy.

In just one use, my hair doesn’t feel dry, isn’t as unruly as it was before, and doesn’t get tangled anymore. After using the products thrice in one week, my hair looks smoother.

The treatment conditioner is better than other conditioners I’ve used before, as it makes my hair feel softer without the need for a hair serum.

Hair concerns: Dry, dull, frizzy, unruly, colour-damaged, and heat-damaged hair

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

It has been a great experience using the Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair range and I’m happy to be introduced to this! I’m thankful to have found must-have products that make it look like I just came out of the salon!

I really love the classy packaging. The scent and texture were on point. It doesn’t feel like the shampoo contains rich ingredients or chemicals that would turn you off when you use it. It felt easy to foam up and wash off easily. I love how it helps to smoothen my hair and the amazing scent after wash.

After using it daily for one week, my hair looks healthier and is glowing with shine. I’m definitely getting another bottle once I’m done with this set.

As for the conditioner, I love how it helps to soften my hair whenever I use it after shampooing. It feels so easy to glide through my hair and my hair feels really light after washing it off. It is definitely a lot more convenient, as a little application goes a long way and I can see results instantly after.

Just a few minutes in the shower and at a fraction of the salon price can do the job. I find my hair much more tamed and I can go out with confidence. I feel that this is the product that everyone needs to have at home to save time and money and will highly recommend them to people who have frizzy hair just like me.

Hair concerns: Frizzy, colour-damaged, and heat-damaged hair that’s prone to hair loss and with a sensitive scalp

tsubaki premium ex intensive repair shampoo and treatment conditioner review

I would recommend the Tsubaki Premium EX Intensive Repair Shampoo and Treatment Conditioner to individuals who are experiencing damaged hair and are looking for an effective product that saves time.

What really appealed to me was the sleek black design and upon first application on wet hair, I liked how easily it foams up with just two pumps of shampoo. The texture is really smooth and I felt that it cleans evenly.

For the conditioner, I liked that it does not feel overly heavy on my scalp like some conditioners do and it gives even conditioning to my damaged hair.

I loved that it has a short waiting time (rinsed it off after 30 seconds) and yet it works effectively in smoothening my hair! It gives a nice shine to my hair and it is easier to comb through my hair too.

The scent for both the shampoo and treatment conditioner is not too overpowering — very refreshing and it stays on after drying my hair too.

After using it daily for one week, my friends asked if I went to a salon for hair treatment as they noticed that my hair is smoother and shinier recently. I no longer need to use additional oils or serums to moisturise my hair.
