Ways To Put A Stop To Hair Loss In Singapore’s Hot & Humid Weather

Compared to other countries, Singapore generally has a pretty stable weather forecast all year round. But that doesn’t mean we’re better off since we have to endure the hot and humid temperatures and its effects on our scalp and hair.

During cold or dry climates, our scalps tend to produce less sebum so the chances of clogged pores are kept to a minimum. But on our sunny island, the hot and humid climate causes our scalp to release more sebum. If it’s not properly cleaned, it will result in clogged pores, dandruff, and eventually hair loss.

Luckily, we have ways to put a stop to hair loss! Here’s how.

1. Shampoo daily

For those you’ve heard sayings about how washing your hair daily might strip the scalp of its natural oils, you’re not alone. However, considering Singapore’s hot and humid temperatures, daily shampooing is necessary. In fact, it’s recommended that you wash your hair daily to get rid of excess sebum or impurities that might build up on the scalp and lead to hair loss in the long-term.

According to Pooja Chhabra, a certified trichologist from TK TrichoKare, it’s wise to always opt for shampoos that do not contain any harsh ingredients. If necessary, make the switch to chemical-free shampoos without paragon and silicone. Opt for those that contain ingredients such as argan oil, rosemary, lavender, and chamomile that nourish your hair and help restore its moisture balance.

2. Use a moisturizing hair mask

Similar to how you’ve been investing money and time on face masks, your hair needs some tender loving care too. This applies especially to individuals who have their air-conditioners turned on for the most part of the day to counter Singapore’s humidity.

We’re not sure about you but we’ve personally encountered dry and itchy skin after long periods in an air-conditioned room. This is because while the air-conditioning keeps us cool, it snaps away moisture from our body too. The same applies to our scalp and hair as well. To avoid the damaging effects on our hair, be sure to treat it with a moisturizing mask at least once a week.

3. Take care of your hair & scalp with TK TrichoKare’s award-winning treatment

While DIY routines are important, it’s also essential to let the professionals handle it at times. If you’ve tried various hair care products but to no avail, then it’s probably wise to seek a second opinion. We recommend taking care of your hair & scalp with TK TrichoKare before your condition worsens.

About TK TrichoKare

TK TrichoKare has been around in the market for a long time. With a history that dates back to 2004, they are the first and leading brand that provides customised European herbal hair remedies that are validated by certified trichologists.

If you’re not aware, trichology is the scientific study relating to scalp and hair health. It covers the anatomy, chemistry, physiology, nutrition, genetics and microbiology. With that said, trichologists are professionals who specialize in hair and scalp care. Coupled with advanced technology used in TK TrichoKare’s treatment process, you know you’re a step closer to better hair and scalp health.

Here’s what to expect during your treatment process.

Step 1: Hair & Scalp Analysis

To tackle the problem, a hair and scalp analysis is needed. Using a lens tool that magnifies up to 200 times, you will be able to see for yourself your scalp condition before the treatment.

Step 2: Customised Premium European Herbal Scalp Masque

After the analysis is done, your trichologist/hair consultant will explain to you more about the hair problems you’re facing based on the scan results. Thereafter, receive a recommendation on a customised premium European herbal scalp masque to detox the scalp and remove impurities and excess sebum.

Step 3: 3-Step TriOxy Treatment

You will then be ushered into the treatment area to begin your treatment process with TK TrichoKare’s 3-step triOxy treatment. The 3-step triOxy treatment consists of OxyPeel, OxyJet, and OxyNutrient.

Think of OxyPeel as an exfoliation procedure that clears up your congested hair follicles. This is followed up by OxyJet, a spray that helps to accelerate your scalp’s cell metabolism and improve blood circulation.

Once that is done, there will be a 15-minute waiting time to allow the goodness from OxyPeel and OxyJet to set in. You will then be guided to the hair bath area for a revitalizing hair bath to aid your scalp in restoring its sebum balance. Get ready to feel completely refreshed after the wash!

As you head back to your dedicated seating area, a hot pad will be placed over your shoulders. Relax and feel the tension fade away as your trichologist/hair consultant works on the last step – OxyNutrient. This provides the necessary nutrients and hydration your scalp needs to thrive.

Step 4: Photodynamic Therapy

To wrap things up, sit under the Photodynamic Therapy machine that uses laser light technology to support your hair regeneration. This final step will greatly accelerate the healing process.

Award-Winning Hair Treatment at $40 ONLY + Hair Care Kit + HairGRO serum (U.P. $758).

Experience a customised hair treatment worth $758 at $40 ONLY!

Check this out and read the full review from our Editor.

You’ve heard about skin ageing and probably know a thing or two about it, but have you heard of hair ageing? We were surprised when we first heard about it from TrichoKare, a leading trichological centre that provides expert solutions on hair and scalp problems.

“Like skin, hair also ages intrinsically,” says TrichoKare’s Senior Trichologist, Jane Ang. She shared that pigment cells in our hair decreases with age, which slows down the production of melanin, resulting in greying hair. Lesser collagen and elastin also causes our hair to become dry and more brittle. In addition, the shrinking of the hair follicles results in thinner hair.

If you are concerned about thinning hair, greying hair or dry and lacklustre hair, TrichoKare is here to help. For a limited time only, you get to enjoy its new Advanced Age Defying Hair Treatment + Hair Care Kit + HairGRO Serum at just $40 ONLY (U.P. $758). Stand a chance to win a 2D1N staycation at MBS (worth $680) after the trial treatment!

TrichoKare prides itself on delivering high-quality hair and scalp treatments to its clients. With a series of awards under its belt, it has most recently been awarded the ELLE Beauty Treat List 2017 for Best Treatment for Hair Loss and Parentsworld Beauty Awards 2017 for Most Effective Hair Loss Treatment. It is little wonder that celebrities such as Xiaxue, and radio hosts Anand and Jaynesh, have turned to TrichoKare to solve their hair care problems.

All treatments at TrichoKare are validated by professional Trichologists who specialise in the study and diagnosis of hair and scalp problems. Treatments are also customised based on individual hair and scalp conditions, and use only premium natural European herbs that are free of harsh chemicals.

Find out your hair age with the Advanced Tricho Hair Test!

Ms. Pooja Chhabra, Trichologist from TrichoKare, did the Advanced Tricho Hair Test with me to discover my hair age.

I was very surprised to find out that my hair age was close to a decade older than my actual age! She did a diagnosis of my scalp, and explained that I have a greasy scalp, with dry flakes and clogged pores that impedes hair growth. She also pointed out some premature grey hair, brittle and lacklustre hair, which she explained was the reason why my hair was ageing faster than it should.

Ms. Pooja then customised an Advanced Age Defying Hair Treatment according to my hair and scalp conditions. At TrichoKare, rest assured that your treatment regime will be customised by their haircare experts according to your needs, to ensure that you get the most effective results.

The active ingredients are able to penetrate deeply into the scalp without needles, which means it is all gentle, effective and safe! This process helps to promote hair growth and prevents hair loss.

The key ingredients used in the Advanced Age Defying Hair Treatment are:

Emu Oil

  • Boost the diameter and thickness of each hair strand
  • Reactivate 80% of dormant hair follicles

Gingko Biloba extract

  • Counteract signs of scalp ageing

With this expertly designed hair treatment, it offers a multitude of benefits to your hair and scalp. The main benefits are that it helps to detox the scalp, strengthen hair roots, increase hair density, reverse grey hair, moisture and soften hair and restore hair lustre.

With just one treatment, I could immediately see the difference in my hair even without using the magnifying lens! I was very impressed to see that the dry flakes on the surface of my scalp were completely gone with just one session. My scalp felt clean and fresh, and my hair felt smooth and had a lustrous glow lasting several days.

Normally, my hair will start getting greasy in the afternoon my hair having had washed it in the morning. However, with TrichoKare, I felt that my hair stayed oil-free for more than 48 hours after the treatment! I was very pleased with how clean my scalp felt, which made such a big difference to someone like me who constantly struggle with greasy scalp problems.

proven results final (1)

I have a flaky scalp for as long as I could remember. Previously, I would purchase medicated shampoos and consult dermatologists, who would give me oral tablets and more medicated shampoos as well. These options only offer short-term remedy, and my condition often acts up again after a few weeks or during periods of intense stress.

I decided to give TrichoKare a try. Gladys, a hair specialist, analysed my scalp situation and tailored a unique program for my condition, which included treatments such as Hot Mask, Scalp Rebalancing Essence, and Infra-red Light Treatment.

After just one session, I could feel and see the results! My scalp pores were unclogged, the stubborn flakes were mostly removed, and my scalp feels smooth and cleansed. The care and concern they showed throughout the whole session made me feel more welcomed and ease as well. A few days on, my scalp still feels rejuvenated and there is noticeably and significantly less flakes (almost none, in fact!)

Customised Hair Treatment for Your Scalp’s Every Need

In the hustle and bustle of life, we often neglect caring for our hair and scalp – I’m talking about abusing our scalp with hair dyes, or even damaging the fragile ends of our hair with a heated hairdryer because we simply don’t have enough time or patience to let our hair dry naturally. If you are guilty of the abovementioned, TK TrichoKare is here to take care of you by tackling the root of all your hair and scalp problems. TrichoKare makes use of a unique three-step approach: detox, strengthen and growth.

TK1

Before starting your treatment at TrichoKare, you will firstly be treated to a consultation by a professional trichologist. ‘Trichology’ is the medical term for the study of the health of hair and scalp. Naturally, a trichologist is someone who specialises in hair and scalp problems. A trichologist often takes a holistic approach to treating your hair problems by considering your lifestyle, diet and general wellbeing. Trichologists treat wide range of common hair problems, such as thinning, breakage, shedding, dry or itchy scalp. I had the privilege of having trichologist Ms Pooja Chhabra diagnose and treat my scalp. In fact, Ms Pooja told me that Trichokare houses three out of the 10 trichologists in Singapore.

Firstly, Ms Pooja administered the hair pull test, where she gently ran her fingers through my hair to check for hair fall, and if the hair fell at the right stage. Then, she went ahead with the scalp analysis. Using a special lens that could magnify up to 200 times, Ms Pooja saw that I not only have dandruff, my hair follicles were also clogged with dead skin and sebum. I have always known that I suffer from minor dandruff problems, but it was not serious enough for me to take action and get it treated professionally. In fact, I resorted to over-the-counter shampoos and haircare products. However, these haircare products often do not tackle the root of your hair and scalp problems, because they are after all, not tailor-made to suit you. Ms Pooja even alerted me that hair fall, dandruff, itching, redness and acne on your scalp are some of the first symptoms of problem scalp. She highlighted that hair and scalp problems are often signs of other more serious problems such as male and female pattern hair loss, ringworm and alopecia areata – an autoimmune disease that attacks the hair follicles.

After the diagnosis, the trichologist working with you will prescribe a unique combination of a mask and tonic, tailor-made to your scalp’s needs. At TrichoKare, there are over seven types of masks and 11 types of tonics to choose from. Unlike other haircare institutions, TrichoKare makes use of trichologically-validated European herbs instead of Chinese herbs as they not only smell better, they penetrate the scalp faster. Such herbs include burdock, rosemary and sage. In my case, Ms Pooja prescribed the combination of Dead Sea Mask and Aloe Vera Tonic to detoxify and cleanse my clogged hair follicles.

After letting the mask sit for 15 minutes, I proceeded to have my hair washed and massaged by the meticulous therapist at TrichoKare. Once again, the staff would choose between three different types of shampoos based on whether your scalp was on the dry, oily or normal side.

Then, the Aloe Vera Tonic was sprayed directly on my roots and massaged into the scalp by the dedicated therapist such that all the goodness of the tonic is absorbed into my scalp. The final step of the treatment entailed infrared light shone on my scalp to further promote nutrient absorption, blood circulation, and has antibacterial properties.

The two-hour long treatment ended with a final consultation with your trichologist. Ms Pooja then administered the scalp analysis and showed me the before and after pictures of my scalp, as seen above. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the surface of my scalp has cleared up significantly and my hair follicles were no longer clogged after just one session. There was not a trace of a single dandruff flake! Not only that, my scalp felt refreshed and my hair smelled nice for the next three days.

The year 216 has been a great year for TrichoKare, where they were awarded the ELLE Beauty Treat List 2017 for Best Treatment for Hair Loss, Her World Spa Awards 2016 for Best Treatment for Damaged Hair, Harper’s BAZAAR Hair Awards 2016 for Best Sebum-Regulating Treatment for Oily Scalp, and Women’s Weekly Hair Awards 2016 for Best Anti-Ageing Hair Treatment.
