I Found Out What Was Causing My Itchy, Oily, Sensitive Scalp, And This $48 Treatment Fixed It
Meet Misaki, she’s a serious fitness girlie. We’re talking daily workouts, tight ponytails, sweaty scalps, and generous sprays of dry shampoo to mask the post-gym funk. But lately, she’d started noticing something off: her scalp felt constantly irritated, itchy and dry yet somehow also oily. Worst of all, no amount of scalp serums or shampoo switches made a real difference.

She had a hunch that her lifestyle was to blame, but it wasn’t until her scalp started feeling really sore from all that scratching that she finally decided to get some real answers and treat it properly. That’s when she decided to book an appointment at TK TrichoKare for their Restorative Hydration Treatment, a $48 trial (worth $556) that promised to soothe, cleanse, and rebalance the scalp. Spoiler: it did!

The scalp treatment also came with a free full-sized Tricho Hair Veil (worth $56), a sun protecting hairspray that’ll strengthen and nourish the hair cuticles while reversing sun damage on the hair.

Causes of An Itchy, Red & Sensitive Scalp
Misaki’s session began with a detailed Hair & Scalp Scan Analysis. The consultant examined her scalp and zeroed in on a few problems: clogged hair follicles from dry shampoo buildup, dehydration from frequent hot showers after gym sessions, and inflammation from the constant tension of tight ponytails tugging at the roots. It turned out that her daily habits were doing harm in more ways than she thought.

How A Scalp Treatment Can Soothe & Reset An Irritated Scalp
The scalp treatment kicked off with a soothing PH Regulator Masque massaged gently into her scalp. Packed with scalp-loving ingredients including the antioxidant-rich and anti-inflammatory Olea Europaea fruit oil, stress-reducing magnolia extract, and jojoba oil to boost moisture retention, the masque felt like “a calming facial for my scalp”, said Misaki.

Next was a therapeutic cleanse that removed all the gunk and sweat her scalp had been holding onto.

After that came the customised Treatment Essence applied onto her roots using a NanoMist spray. It’s infused with calendula, a herbal plant prized for its healing and antibacterial properties, that helps to reduce irritation and inflammation.

The consultant also applied a generous spritz of the Tricho Hair Veil hairspray (Misaki received this as a freebie too). Just like how facial skin ages faster under UV rays, the hair and scalp also gets sun damage. It manifests in similar ways, i.e. signs of ageing, like greying and hair loss. The Tricho Hair Veil acts as a sunscreen for the scalp and hair while repairing existing sun damage, strengthening the hair cuticle, detangling frizzy hair, and preventing moisture loss.

It’s formulated with naturally sourced plant botanicals:
- Citrus Lemon Peel Oil: maintains the pH balance of the scalp and promotes healthy hair growth
- Carvone: provides anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits for hair and scalp
- Pinene: prevents excess oil production (good for oily scalp conditions!)
- Juniperus Virginiana Oil: fights dandruff and itchy scalp
With a few sprays, your crown and tresses are protected from the sun and your hair strands are left looking sleek and polished.

The final step was a session under the Infrared light, delivered via a futuristic-looking helmet-like device called the Hair Bang. This red light therapy helps reduce irritation, detoxify the scalp, and stimulate blood circulation within a short time. Misaki was almost lulled to sleep by the gentle warmth from the device while her scalp got some much-needed rejuvenation.

Before & After Results
By the end of the session, the difference was obvious. In the scalp scan, the redness was gone and gunk in her hair follicles was totally cleared up. She could also feel the improvement in the scalp - fresher than it had in weeks. But what really surprised her was how long the effects lasted. In the days following the treatment, her hair stayed clean for longer, and that greasy-then-sensitive cycle was finally broken. No more mid-day itching or reaching for another blast of dry shampoo.
Her scalp finally felt balanced and healthy. What’s more, the consultant also took the extra effort to recommend the correct shampoo to look for - as selecting the right one is one of the first steps to maintaining a healthy hair and scalp regime.

She’s since made the treatment part of her self-care routine, calling it her “reset button” for both her scalp and hair. And considering how much time and effort she puts into maintaining her bod, it only makes sense that her scalp deserves a little attention too.
