Do you find yourself losing a lot of hair while showering or even combing your hair? You're not alone, and there are ways to address it for good while encouraging gradual hair growth. Most importantly, you can start by caring for your scalp as early as possible, as scalp care can help reduce the chances of hair loss.

Hair loss is a condition that can affect up to 73 percent of Asian men and women. It can result from genetics, hormones, or medical conditions or is part of the ageing process. While it generally plagues men, women are not spared either.

If you’re wondering how a scalp treatment for hair loss works in Singapore, we list out the types of scalp treatment available and what you expect from the scalp treatment.

What is Scalp Treatment?

A scalp treatment is a hair treatment designed based on your scalp condition, which means the product is specially formulated to detoxify the scalp, add moisture, and nourish your scalp. It also helps to promote a healthy scalp environment for your hair to grow.

Not only does it help to make your scalp feel clean, but a scalp treatment can also correct the oil production process on your scalp as the treatment works to unclog your hair follicles and improve hair growth. It also works to stimulate blood flow to nourish your scalp better.

Types of Scalp Treatment

The recommended type of scalp treatment may vary depending on your scalp condition. At KIMAGE, we offer the following two types of scalp treatment:

Scalp Treatment for Hair Loss

A scalp treatment at our hair salon caters specifically for hair loss and thinning hair issues, containing Stemoxydine targeted to increase the oxygen levels in the tiny follicles of the scalp to improve scalp function and promote hair growth.

The treatment usually begins with an evaluation of your scalp, followed by a deep cleansing process that revitalises your scalp and hair, which helps to remove the impurities from your hair and scalp. As a result, your scalp feels clean, and your hair has more volume.

Detox Mint Scalp Treatment

A scalp detox treatment at our hair salon generally begins with a scalp massage that involves brushing or using an exfoliating scrub to remove dead skin cells, unclog the pores on your scalp, and clear product build-up from the follicles.

The treatment process is similar to a scalp treatment designed for hair loss, except that you get a minty, refreshing feeling after the treatment. This is because it involves using mint to cleanse and refresh your scalp, leaving it feeling clean and itch-free.

What to Expect from a Scalp Treatment

When you visit the salon for your scalp treatment, you can expect a plethora of services that aim to improve your experience while maintaining the focus of your visit towards your hair health. At KIMAGE, here are some things you can expect:

Consultation

The first step in any scalp treatment often begins with a professional consultation. During this consultation, the hairdresser will assess your scalp condition, discuss any concerns you may have, and recommend a suitable treatment based on your needs.

Cleansing

Before any treatment is applied, your scalp will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any dirt, oil, or product build-up. This is usually done with a gentle shampoo and scalp massage to stimulate blood flow.

Exfoliation

Some scalp treatments may include an exfoliation step to remove dead skin cells and unclog hair follicles. This can be done with a specialised scalp scrub or a chemical exfoliant.

Treatment

Once your scalp is cleansed and exfoliated, the treatment product will be applied to the scalp. This can be a hair mask, serum, or other specialised treatment designed to address specific scalp issues like hair loss or thinning hair.

Massage

Many hair treatments here in Singapore include a relaxing scalp massage to help stimulate blood flow and promote relaxation. You can expect the same with a scalp treatment as it can be done with the fingertips or a specialised scalp massager.

Rinse and Styling

Once the treatment is applied and left on for a suggested amount of time, your scalp will be rinsed thoroughly, and your hair will be styled as desired. This can be a rejuvenating experience that leaves your scalp feeling refreshed and your hair looking healthy.
