Earlier today Erika, Bubu, and I went to Trinoma to check out Unilever’s All Things Hair Refillery. Finding it was a bit of a challenge because Trinoma’s shops go around in a circle so it is important to know that the All Things Hair Refillery is a kiosk found between the Nike Store and the Melissa Pop-up Store.
If you have an old/used container of any of their products (Dove, Tresemme, Sunsilk, and Cream Silk) that match the variants they are refilling, just wash it out and dry it and they can refill it.
If you do not bring an old/used container then they can provide reusable / refillable bottles at P10 each which could be used immediately. Each bottle can contain up to 200 grams of product.
Cost of the product is computed based on weight.
Refills
The Refillery can refill the following brands: Dove, Tresemme, Sunsilk, and Creamsilk. Each of those products has several variants but they only provided for refills of the most popular variants.
All Things Hair Refills
Those variants are as follows:
Dove Straight and Silky Shampoo
Dove Straight and Silky Conditioner
Tresemme Keratin Smooth Shampoo with Argan Oil and Keratin
Tresemme Keratin Smooth Conditioner with Argan Oil and Keratin
Sunsilk Creations Smooth and Manageable Shampoo
Cream Silk Standout Straight Conditioner
How to get your refills:
Step 1: Register at the booth
It is a simple form. It asks for your name, shampoo brand, cell number, and email address.
Step 2: Bottles
All Things Hair Reusable Containers on the display shelf
If you have your own bottles and the staff have approved it you should give it to them so that they could weigh them. The bottles they approve are those of their own products, also, that matches the variant of the refilled content. Those are the variants listed above.
If you do not have your own bottles then they will provide you with their refillable bottles that cost P10 each. Their refillable bottles have a fixed weight of 0.22 grams.
You will need to let them know which product you will get as they have corresponding labeled bottles for each.
When I was refilling they made the mistake of giving me a Sunsilk bottle. We didn’t notice until the bottle was half full. No harm, no foul … they just took the bottle from me and gave an empty one of the correct bottle.
Step 3: Refill
If you want them to refill the bottles for you they can do it, of course, but that is no fun! The point of the exercise (in my personal opinion) is to refill the bottles yourself.
Dove Straight and Silky Shampoo and Conditioner Refill
If you opt to use the refillable bottles they provide it is easier to fill because the bottles are clear and the maximum quantity for each is 200 grams.
Note, that there is no requirement to fill your container all the way to the top, but it would, of course, make sense to do so. When I filled the bottles I tried to fill it as close to the top as I could without spilling.
Of all the products they provided the only one that we use regularly is Dove and more conditioner than shampoo, which is why I opted to get 1 bottle of shampoo and 2 conditioners.
Step 4: Weigh and Cost
All That Hair filled bottles
Once you have filled the bottles as far as you want, just cap the bottles and give them to the staff for weighing. After they weigh each bottle the scale prints out a tagged that they attach to the back of the bottle. Each tag indicates the following:
the product
the variant
the cost per kilogram
the net weight
the net cost
date the product was dispensed
the batch code
the product code
Is it really cheaper?
As you can see from my bottles above, I spent approximately P100 for each bottle, each one almost 200 grams. The shampoo costs P0.53 per gram. The conditioner is slightly more expensive at P0.57 per gram.
Let’s do a comparison table:
Dove Straight and Silky Shampoo (350 ml.)
Dove Straight and Silky Conditioner (335 ml.)
Price from Watsons
P220.00
P210.00
Price from All Things Hair Refillery
P185.50
P190.95
SAVINGS OF
P34.50
P19.05
Is the amount of money saved worth the extra trip to the refillery? I will leave it up to you to decide. Personally, if I have to go to the refillery more than once a month it might not be worth it. But a bigger container means bigger savings and fewer trips so it would be worth it by then. 🙂
Commercial product containers do not come in 200 ml. containers so, perhaps, the math would seem different. 🙂

Utilities firms, for the first time, have broken into the list, with electric distribution company Meralco as the overall top preferred company of jobseekers and telecommunications company PLDT Inc. at number nine.
Food and beverage conglomerate San Miguel Corporation (SMC) takes second place while tech giant Google Philippines leapfrogs to third place from last year’s eighth. As for the rest of the previously unmovable top 3, wellness multinational Nestlé Philippines takes the fourth place while the foremost business process outsourcing in the country, Accenture, is in fifth.
The only Henry Sy-led company on the list this year and the lone financial institution in the top ten, BDO Unibank, is sixth this 2017. Consumer goods giant Procter and Gamble rises and is this year’s seventh and ABS-CBN Corporation, one of the Philippines’ leading media and entertainment company, is eighth this year.
Rounding up the top companies most of the Filipino workforce prefer to work is consumer goods multinational Unilever, which was last seen in the 2015 list now takes the tenth place this year.
Recognition expands to other strong employer brands
The Top Companies Report, now on its fourth edition, is expanding to give out special awards to category and regional winners. These companies, are bring recognized for their strong performance in their respective categories and areas.
Part of Jobstreet.com’s survey on which companies they aspire to be a part of is the question why they want to work in these firms.
Last year’s survey showed that a competitive basic salary is the primary reason when choosing a firm to work for whereas the candidates asked this year indicated that job security is the foremost reason for their consideration.
These choices indicate that professional Filipinos are more interested in the long-term gains, as factors that directly affect their professional lives such as career growth offerings and promotion, and career-enhancing training and development opportunities.
A strong leadership team that can mentor them in their professional trajectory are now more preferred, making it in the top 5 attributes of an aspirational company.
A total of 3,658 respondents participated in this year’s series of surveys that were sent out in May 2017. The respondents came from different position levels (predominantly junior executives and fresh graduates) and represented various specializations.
