This Bespoke Treatment Resolved My Scalp Issues Without Breaking The Bank
Here’s the thing: dull hair is way more common than you’d think. Unlike other scalp issues like dandruff-prone or thinning hair, it’s easy to overlook the telltale signs of dull tresses for years on end. Take it from me, who has been putting up with lifeless locks and greasy roots for as long as I can remember!
My tresses are naturally thick, which makes them a chore to manage in the Singapore heat and humidity. Even Taylor Swift felt the humidity; her hair became thicker and rougher! Though I’ve experimented with different hair washing schedules and tried all sorts of hair products, nothing has stopped my mane from losing volume and looking limp by the end of the day. Despite all that, I could never bear to cut my hair short out of practicality — I’m sure many ladies out there can relate to this too.
Well, it turns out that there’s no longer a need to consider such extremes in the pursuit of healthy and glossy hair. I headed down to TK TrichoKare for a customised scalp treatment session, which yielded stunning results for my hair and scalp.
And the best part? The whole treatment is affordably priced, so you won’t need to break the bank while targeting your hair and scalp concerns!
Read on for the highlights of my treatment, complete with scalp scans from before and after the treatment!

My journey kicked off upon arrival at TrichoKare, where I answered a quick health questionnaire and discussed my hair and scalp concerns with a TrichoKare consultant. She then used the Tricho-scan, which has up to 200x magnification, to find out more about the condition of my scalp.
To my astonishment and embarrassment, I could immediately see that my scalp was nowhere as clean or oil-free as I had imagined, despite my attempts to keep it that way!

While I felt disgusted by the sight of dead skin cells and sebum buildup around my hair follicles — which explained my struggle with dull hair — the consultant explained that this problem was common in hot climates like Singapore’s, and could be resolved with a scalp treatment customised to target my issues.
First, a hair and scalp specialist brushed on a European Herbal Scalp Masque specially formulated to address my individual needs. It came with a light and soothing fragrance which filled me with a sense of calm. Plus, it left a minty, cooling feeling against my scalp which felt extremely refreshing.
Once the masque had approximately 15-20 minutes to sit and my scalp fully absorbed the nutrients, it was time for a quick rinse. This was no regular hair wash — the experience was elevated as the specialist used TrichoKare’s signature shampoo and conditioner duo, the Nourishing Hair Bath and CompleteKare Mask. She also threw in a rejuvenating aromatherapy scalp massage to encourage better product absorbency.

My hair was then gently towel-dried and the specialist applied a Customized Treatment Essence all over my scalp. This was done via a NanoMist Spray that thoroughly and evenly mists the serum on. This step was definitely my favourite, and it felt even better as I was given a heated shoulder pillow to soothe my tired muscles. In fact, I was so relaxed that it felt like all of my stress melted away right there!

Finally, my hair was blow-dried and styled. The specialist topped it all off by using Photodynamic Therapy, an infrared light treatment. This increases blood circulation to my scalp and promotes hair regeneration, thus encouraging the growth of new hair follicles and improving the overall health of my hair.

Following the treatment, I got to see a close-up scan of my scalp again and was immensely relieved to find that the coast was clear of oil clogs and impurities! It was a truly impressive change, seeing as a full session lasts only about 2.5 hours — well worth it!

What’s more, I received a complimentary set of TrichoKare’s Nourishing Hair Bath and CompleteKare Mask to care for my scalp and hair and maintain its tip-top condition until the next time I drop by for another session.

For the next few days, I found that my hair felt fuller and smoother to the touch, and was pleasantly surprised when my friends complimented my visibly glossier locks when we met up for dinner.
