Does your scalp feel oily, especially in this humid weather, even after numerous hair care treatments at various hair salons in Singapore? Well, you’re not alone because any attempt at having healthy, shiny hair is a never-ending quest for many on this island.
This is due to a variety of factors such as the use of chemical products during certain types of hair treatments along with the ingredients in your hair shampoo that may affect your hair condition.
With a year-round tropical climate, environmental factors such as humidity, pollution, and heat as well as endlessly touching your hair will result in you needing regular hair care treatment.
As such, we’ve curated a list of hair treatments that can only be done in hair salons and how these treatments are conducted along with their benefits.
KERATIN TREATMENT
Keratin is an important protein found in your hair strands. It helps to strengthen the hair and gives it structure. However, chemical-based hair products as well as unsuitable atmospheric conditions can damage the protein in the outer and inner part of your hair, leaving you with frizzy, dry hair strands and oily scalp.
In response to such hair conditions, keratin treatment – a special chemical-based hair therapy – is designed to increase the elasticity, sheen, thickness, and health of your hair to restore the lost keratin. As a result, it helps to remove unwanted curls, roughness, and enliven your hair while saving you the pain of straightening your hair daily.
The process of this treatment is somewhat different from other hair treatments out there as it involves the binding of keratin to your hair using a flat iron. The heat emanating from the iron creates the mixture that is used to straighten your hair. A handful of essential chemicals are also used to help the keratin function properly.
After the treatment, you can wash your hair the next day, using shampoos formulated for keratin-treated hair. The effects of this treatment typically last for 2-4 months depending on your original hair condition.
SCALP TREATMENT
Scalp treatment was once common among those experiencing hair loss and hair thinning. Today, it has become one of the recommended hair treatments in hair salons as it helps to promote a healthy scalp environment for hair growth. It is a hair treatment based on scientific research, meaning it is tailored to your scalp condition.
Not only does a scalp treatment make your head feel wonderful, but it also substantially corrects the oil production on your scalp as it works to unclog your hair follicles and improve hair growth. Plus, they stimulate blood flow so that nutrients can better reach your scalp and nourish your hair.
The process of this treatment usually begins with a Kerastase Fusio Scrub which deep cleanses and revitalises your scalp and hair, freeing them from deep impurities. As a result, your hair is left lighter with pure volume and radiance. If you have a hair thinning problem, hair growth factors may be applied to rejuvenate the essential nutrients in the scalp and strengthen your hair root.
After the treatment, you will feel that your scalp is clean and free of build-ups and oils. If you want to maintain a healthy scalp, make sure to opt for a scalp treatment now and then during your visit to the hair salon.
HYDRATING TREATMENT
If the ends of your hair split way too often, causing you to have dry, unmanageable hair, a hydrating treatment can help with that. It is a deep conditioning treatment that works to strengthen, detangle, and prevent hair breakage and split ends. It can also protect your hair from being damaged by heat styling products if you use them regularly.
This hair treatment will penetrate deep into the hair shaft to deliver nutrients and proteins to strengthen it. At the same time, it provides a protective outer coating to safeguard your hair from general wear and tear as well as environmental factors. Depending on your hair condition, the treatment process may take 15-30 minutes.
Like going to the dermatologist for your facial treatment, hair salons offer these hair treatments to help people achieve healthier, shinier hair.
On top of that, they can assess your hair needs and suggest the most suitable solution for your hair. They also have access to the necessary tools and equipment which you may not have at home.
Therefore, it’s safe to say that hair salons in Singapore exist for a reason that is common to many – to provide you with solutions for healthier, shinier hair.
