Best Scalp Treatments in Singapore for Strong, Healthy Hair

Scouting for the best scalp treatments in Singapore? So are we! 

Your hair may get all the attention on a regular trip to the salon, but for a healthy head from the roots, take a look at your scalp. If you have got a hair problem you can’t quite solve, your scalp is often what needs to be treated– everyday stress, exposure to pollutants, the use of harsh hair products, and the loss of moisture from repeated washing can all lead to hair issues like dandruff and dryness.

Scalp treatments, like hair treatments, come in many forms and cater to different hair types and needs. Sorting through the various treatments out there to decide on a plan that suits you may be daunting, but you’ll really only need to do one thing: identify your scalp issues. Some problems like dandruff and greasy hair can both be linked to an overproduction of sebum from the scalp, and can be tackled with scalp treatments that aim to rebalance moisture and oil in the scalp. Dryness and damage in the hair is often linked to a sensitive scalp or one that has been damaged by overuse of hair products or harsh salon treatments like bleaching, and can be relieved with soothing, hydrating treatments. Hair loss may be caused by poor nutrition or stress. If you’re uncertain of your scalp issues or show mixed symptoms, though, you could always head to a professional: many of the scalp treatment centres we’ve listed below also offer scalp analysis and diagnostic services. 

Keep reading for our selection of scalp treatment centres and salons in Singapore, and begin your journey to stronger, healthier hair.

Black Hair Salon Aquapuncture Scalp Treatment – Innovative Water-Powered Technology

Black Hair Salon has pioneered the Aquapuncture Scalp Treatment, a new scalp treatment which stimulates the scalp with high-pressure water. Think of it as a dental cleaning for the top of your head– designed as regular maintenance, it exfoliates your scalp and removes impurities, while giving it a gentle but targeted massage to encourage the growth of more hair.

Since this treatment is water-based, it is suitable for sensitive scalps that may be irritated by chemical treatments, or which cannot undergo herbal treatments for any reason (such as allergies). Negative ion water, which is used in the process, differs from regular water in its smaller molecules, which allow for more detailed scalp cleaning. Formulated to have a pleasant scent in its application, this treatment removes excess sebum, renews scalps suffering from hair loss, and may even slow down the premature greying process.

The last stage of treatment is a rebalancing scalp lotion that restores the chemical environment of your scalp, and can be paired with a compatible hair treatment tailored to your hair type. Do make sure you have no injuries to your scalp before undergoing the Aquapuncture Treatment, though, as it’ll hurt if you do!

Beijing 101’s Meridian Hair Growth Treatment – Herbal Haircare Rooted in Tradition

We’ve previously written about innovative herbal treatments for hair that forgo harsh chemicals in favour of natural ingredients. An icon of Singapore’s haircare clinics, Beijing 101’s signature Meridian Hair Growth Treatment is inspired by the practices of Traditional Chinese Medicine, combining them with cutting-edge technology to promote hair growth, enrich the scalp, and minimise hair loss.

The Traditional Chinese Medicine experts behind the Meridian Hair Growth Treatment have chosen a range of premium herbs and superfoods to integrate into their treatment, extracted and enhanced through a proprietary extraction method: they include ginseng, angelica root, and the traditional Chinese longevity tonic he shou wu. The treatment also includes a Signature Meridian Scalp Massage, grounded in traditional uses of massage to balance elements in the body, to restore liveliness and stimulate blood circulation in the scalp, as well as relieving tension and enhancing sleep.

Besides traditional treatments, the best of modern technology is also incorporated in Alpha Beam Laser Light Therapy, which further stimulates the scalp for hair growth. Finally, the treatment includes a complimentary blow-dry and styling, so you’ll look and feel your best.

Bee Choo’s Signature Herbal Scalp Treatment – Fresh, Quality-Certified, and Clean

Formulated and made in Singapore, Bee Choo Origins’ scalp treatments are all-natural and herbally based, and are prepared fresh in their ISO and GMP-certified factories for absolute safety and effectiveness.

The Signature Herbal Treatment for Hair Loss goes beyond a simple hair loss treatment: the process has been developed to rebalance the pH of the scalp, cleanse away excess sebum and debris, and stimulate blood circulation in the scalp to create ideal conditions for hair growth. This treatment has only five steps, and is uncomplicated but powerful. Starting with an application of herbal hair tonic infused with he shou wu and ginger, then extra-virgin olive oil, Bee Choo’s signature herbal cream is then layered on to work its magic. Finally, the hair is steamed, washed and blow-dried.

If you’d like to add some colour to your hair, there is an option available to add a reddish-orange tint to white, grey, or light-coloured hair, with minimal changes in the treatment process.

Svenson Follicells Growth Activator 55 — Personalised Scalp Treatment for Denser Hair

Svenson’s Follicells Growth Activator 55 is a particularly high-technology solution to your hair and scalp woes– tests by Pharma Hermetic place the program at a 70% increase in hair stem cells in just twelve weeks following clinical trials. This treatment owes its name to the whopping 55 amino acids it was formulated with: amino acids, as building blocks of hair protein, build up hair and induce greater keratin production.

First, hair and scalp problems will be identified and diagnosed with an in-depth hair analysis displaying quantifiable results on the health of your hair across 11 statistical segments such as the average number of hairs per follicle, follicle count and hair thickness, that aid in the diagnosis of certain scalp problems such as hair loss. Svenson’s team of in-house trichologists, with extensive specialist training and experience, will then be able to devise a treatment plan that best suits your needs. The treatment, over 12 weeks, then suppresses DHT formation by 50% in hair follicle cells and stimulates hair stem cells for less hair loss and more hair growth. 

Svenson’s dedication to results is apparent in the treatment program’s full money-back guarantee: see results in 12 weeks, or be eligible for a full refund.

To book a scalp treatment course with Svenson, call 1800 7777 333 or text on Whatsapp to (+65) 9438 7088.

Two Herbs – Effective Treatment for Dandruff-Prone Itchy Scalps

Since 2004, Two Herbs has offered a herbal scalp treatment, with 100% Chinese and Ayurvedic herbs, designed especially for oily, itchy and dandruff-prone scalps. The only herbal scalp treatment in Singapore to have been clinically tested by trichologists, the treatment is also free of chemicals, and has been tested by the HSA (Health Sciences Authority) to be free of heavy metals.

This treatment, which has won the Women’s Weekly Hair Awards 2019 for Best Anti-Dandruff Treatment, contains four key herbs and special ingredients: calendula, with its anti-fungal and hydrating properties; centella asiatica, soothing and antibacterial; licorice root, used in many ancient remedies for an itchy scalp; and hydrolysed yeast protein, able to improve moisture retention of the scalp to relieve dryness and dryness-related symptoms. When used together in treatment, these herbs help to ease a congested scalp while resolving any sensitivity that may arise from prolonged scalp cleansing.

Two Herbs’ scalp treatments are booked one at a time, so you can continue at your pace without the need for purchasing packages or following a treatment schedule.

Skye Organic Scalp Detox Treatment – Specialised Scalp Treatment

The Scalp Detox Treatment by Skye Organics is the first line of treatment against scalp damages caused by the stressors of everyday life: hair damage from pollution, changes in the state of the scalp due to hormonal, dietary and environmental changes, and imbalances from inconsistent weather. With the effect of “microdermabrasion for the scalp”, it gently exfoliates and prepares your scalp for further treatment, no matter your hair type or hair concern: this treatment is suitable if you’re suffering from hair loss, dryness, damaged hair, dandruff, or scalp greasiness.

A key principle of the Scalp Detox Treatment is relaxation: a private treatment room is set aside, with dim lighting and scented with soothing plants and botanicals. Every treatment contains a series of scalp massages: first a deep massage, then a cleansing and conditioning massage while your hair is washed, and if needed, a final superactive massage. The heavy lifting of the treatment, though, is done by skincare wonder ingredients like salicylic acid, that exfoliates and removes bacteria; tea tree oil, which is antibacterial, antifungal and helps to control dandruff and other skin irritations; and niacin, a common strengthening ingredient in hair vitamins which also improves blood flow. These are applied to the scalp through masks and serums.

For an appointment, call any Skye Organic salon at (+65) 8833 3042.
