We tried an award-winning dandruff treatment and left with an instantly refreshed scalp – clear of oil and gunk, and visibly free of flakes.
If you’ve spent years dealing with scalp woes and pesky flakes, our review of this award-winning dandruff treatment might be the game-changer you’ve been looking for. More than just a hair and scalp issue, dandruff can be a bummer – and we know this firsthand.
Enter TK TrichoKare, a leading trichological centre offering customised European herbal hair solutions approved by certified trichologists. We sent our reviewer Jolene, who has pre-existing hair and scalp woes, to give the Dandruff Defense Treatment a try. Said to relieve itchiness, clear flakes, stubborn build-up and gunk from the scalp, and show visible improvements in one session, this is how the treatment went.
The consultation: Getting to the root of the problem
With five locations across Singapore – Velocity @ Novena Square, Jurong Point, Clementi Mall, Nex and Ngee Ann City – giving your hair and scalp some TLC is as fuss-free as it gets. Jolene’s treatment was set for the Clementi outlet, which is conveniently located beside the MRT station.
Upon entering, she was whisked off for the first part of the treatment: the pre-treatment scalp scan. To get to the root of her hair and scalp issues, the TrichoKare consultant used the highly precise Tricho-Scan. With a 200x magnification, this scalp scan zooms in on every last detail on her scalp skin.
Given her struggles with a greasy and itchy scalp, the scan immediately revealed the stubborn dandruff and excess oil that have been plaguing Jolene. Inching close to her 30s, Jolene was also starting to worry about hair loss. Her consultant was more than happy to help, answering her concerns with personalised advice and explanations based on her lifestyle, stress levels and dietary habits.
The treatment: Unclogging and hydrating the scalp
Next, it was time to tackle the scalp, with the specialist expertly kicking things off with the European herbal scalp masque. This is where TrichoKare’s dedication to using premium-grade European herbs and natural ingredients shines. Infused with tea tree and magnolia, the carefully formulated masque aims to reduce excess sebum and unclog scalp pores.
According to Jolene, this part of the treatment was a welcome dose of stress relief. She loved the cooling effect of the masque, while the accompanying scalp massage helped melt away any tension.
After the herbal masque had worked its magic, the specialist thoroughly washed it off with the award-winning nourishing hair bath shampoo, which is gentle on the scalp and hair and gives an instantly refreshed scalp. Plus, it was accompanied by another invigorating head massage!
With her scalp well-prepped, the specialist introduced the next high-tech step: a nanomist spray that deftly delivers a customised essence to her scalp. This isn’t your standard mist; it is a powerhouse combination of herbs, such as saw palmetto, calendula and nettle, to simultaneously boost hydration and strengthen hair growth.
“This felt like an innovative step that I can’t replicate at home,” says Jolene, who found the precision of the spray fascinating.
The final step was the low light therapy. This non-invasive process seeks to maintain the scalp’s pH balance while detoxifying and healing any inflammation on her scalp.
Apart from having to wear a futuristic, helmet-like device, Jolene didn’t feel a thing as the light technology went to work. Pro-tip: the light therapy takes a while, so come ready with entertainment to keep yourself occupied!
The results: Saying hello to a healthier scalp
Curious about the results? Seeing the side-by-side comparison of Jolene’s scalp scans showed a night-and-day difference.
Where there were once white flakes, uneven texture, and a dull scalp tone, there is now a smooth, balanced surface free from flakes. Jolene could also feel the immediate difference. Her scalp felt revitalised, lighter, and freed from the build-up of stubborn sebum and dandruff over the years.
One week on, Jolene had already noticed a reduction in dandruff and a healthier scalp. While one session gave her instant relief with visible improvements, the consultant shared that regular maintenance and consistent sessions will keep dandruff and greasy scalp issues at bay.
