Today I am so excited to review these products because I've read many positive reviews on this brand. (Kundal claims they sell 1 every 3 seconds.) This is my first time trying it as I've been using a Japanese brand (Tsubaki).
I picked this up from my travels in a local Guardian shop. They come in many scents such as 'White Musk, Baby Powder, Cherry Blossom, Ylang Ylang, and Pink Grapefruit, Amber Vanilla, Fuzzy Navel, Blackberry Bay, Engish Rose, Tropical Mango, Clean Soap, Bubble Soap, Pure Flower, Pure Flower, Wedding Bouquet, Orchid Neroli, Herb Mint, Cotton Blue, Acacia Moringa, Basil Citrus, Lemon Verbena, & Blanc, although I've only seen a few in stores.
I was most drawn to Pink Grapefruit because I like fruity scents and this one smells so yummy.
There is a Treatment/Conditioner available but it was out of stock at the time of my purchase.
Shampoo: 500ml. Clear liquid. Fresh grapefruit scent that doesn't linger. I needed 2 pumps for my hair. It doesn't foam up like my other shampoos. Cleansed my hair and made it fluffy. $7.50 USD, $10.50 SGD.

Kundal Serum: 100ml. Smells delicious. Pink Grapefruit is one of my favorite fruits and fragrance. This smells spot on and not artificial like other grapefruit scents. I used 2-3 pumps because my hair is long. I like how it detangles my hair and makes it more manageable yet does not make it feel or look greasy. Its lightweight/non-sticky formula can be used daily as it does not cause any buildup. I was trying to find a replacement for my beloved Dove serum, and this comes close. The scent is very soothing and relaxing like aromatherapy. The cap is a bit flimsy so it's not too convenient to travel with. What's awesome about this serum is that the product is made without a single drop of water or alcohol! $7.50 USD, $10.50 SGD.

Yeah, I know I need a trim, but I can't right now, OK! ;D
Here is the Kundal Serum compared to:
OGX Serum: 100ml. Thick, icky, doesn't seem to detangle well, & I do not like how this makes my hair feel heavy & cause buildup. Nice soft floral scent. Available in some drugstores & online. $7-8+ USD.
Dove Serum: 40ml. A slight thick liquid, golden yellow color, strong floral fragrance, the scent may offend sensitive noses. This detangles my hair well and does not leave buildup. I do love this product but can no longer find it anywhere in stores therefore my hunt for another hair serum. $6.99 + USD.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO): 250ml. Moisturizing, and smooths hair. Also very multi-purpose, to remove makeup, cook, hand/body moisturizer. Slight golden-green color. Light neutral olive oil scent doesn't linger. Easily available in most supermarkets/online. $7+USD
Virgin Coconut Oil. 100ml. This is also a very multi-purpose oil. Makes my hair feel a bit crunchy sometimes. Doesn't seem to detangle as much as the Kundal Serum. Soft Coconut scent. Easily available in most supermarkets/online. $3.50+USD.
Overall, I feel the Kundal serum detangles my hair & is on par with my beloved Dove serum & also smells better. EVOO comes second. Coconut oil third. I like OGX the least. I highly recommend trying the Kundal serum if you can only pick one item from this line. I also suggest finding a tester to see which scent you like best.
You can purchase Kundal at Guardian Singapore.
Thanks for dropping by. Have a fantastic day/night wherever you are in the world!
