Hair loss and hair fall are very real problem among women in Singapore. While it's common for you to shed strands of hair every day as part of the hair growth cycle, alarm bells should go off when you find yourself losing more hair than usual. And if it has been happening for some time, you probably need to seek professional help to get to the root of the problem.
Here are some treatments that we tried and thought were deserving winners for Her World Hair Awards.
WHERE Papilla Haircare Hair Loss & Scalp Treatment Centre, #05- 25A/B Ngee Ann City, tel: 6465-4565
TREATMENT Cell Nutrition Therapy, $220 per session
WHAT IT IS A comfortable and non- invasive scalp treatment that uses iontophoresis, an electrical pulse system that delivers the serum’s active ingredients into the scalp so it can nourish the hair from within. Besides deep cleansing, it also soothes and rejuvenates the scalp, keeping it healthy and strong.
TESTER’S VERDICT “The private individual treatment areas made the experience all the more pampering, and the treatment seemed to give my hair and scalp a boost too.”
WHERE Svenson, #09-06/07 International Building, tel: 6737-8575 or call 1800-7777-333 for more details
TREATMENT Svenson Hair Filler, $350
WHAT IT IS To encourage stronger and fuller hair, this treatment incorporates a scalp-cleansing mask to get rid of dirt and impurities, followed by a hair tonic that’s massaged into the scalp with an ultrasonic device to infuse it with nourishing active ingredients. Do note that patience is key as results are not immediate, but you should be able to see initial results after two weeks.
TESTER’S VERDICT “Hair loss is noticeably reduced during showers two weeks after the treatment, and I spotted some baby hair growth too.”
