Now that’s a totally different question altogether. That being said, we understand how difficult it can be for our fellow hijabi girlies to find hairdressers that provide quality service whilst adhering to certain religious practices. 

Worry not, because here are six hijab-friendly hair salons in Singapore with private spaces for ladies, halal-certified products, designated prayer rooms and more. Afterall, everyone deserves to be treated with a self-care day — and who doesn’t love a little pampering sesh? 

1. Bee Choo

Looking for something that won’t break the bank? 

Bee Choo is a hair salon exclusively for women only so you can be rest assured that it will be a comfortable and private experience. For the price point, I’d say that it’s rather affordable considering Bee Choo’s Signature Herbal Treatment varies from S$55–s$88 depending on your hair length.

They mainly specialise in hair loss treatments to tackle hair thinning, oily scalps, and pesky dandruff. Besides that, they do provide other services like Premature Grey Hair Treatment (S$55–S$81) and even Postpartum Hair Loss Treatment (S$55–S$81). 

Be it your mother, aunt or grandmother, they all deserve to be treated like the girlboss they are.

6. Skuare Hair Boutique

Last, but certainly not the least, Skuare Hair Boutiqu is a unisex salon with private rooms and designated space for prayer. 

If you find yourself always rushing out of the house with damp hair under your hijab, go for the Cezanne Keratin (from S$260++) treatment. It tames frizzy hair and reduces drying time by half — not to mention, the results last up to five months. 

Besides that, they also provide Hair Colouring using plant-based and ammonia-free dyes starting from S$48++. And after you’re done, there are plenty of hidden gems in Far East Plaza like Seoul Bunsik or Piccolo for affordable street fare.

The post Here are the 6 best hijab-friendly hair salons in Singapore with private spaces, halal-certified products, Wudhu hair dye & more appeared first on Confirm Good.

If you’d like to ask how I’m holding up, the answer is that I’m surviving. Ok, that may sound rather dramatic but it’s not an overt exaggeration that my physical health has taken a toll and it’s not just my body that’s impacted.

My hair health is horrid, and Singapore’s humidity contributes to that. Be it an oily and itchy scalp, dandruff flakes or hair loss, I suffer from it all. On some days, it may get so dire that I would purposely avoid wearing dark-coloured clothes, just in case dandruff can’t stop falling.

It’s a literal nightmare.

So, as a little treat for myself, I went to give TK Trichokare’s Scalp Purifying Therapy a try. Much like all of their award-winning hair and scalp treatments, this Scalp Purifying therapy is specially designed to alleviate these hair problems through the use of cutting-edge technology and Premium European Herbal Solutions.

Upon entering the clinic, I was immediately greeted by the staff members, who ushered me to a private room. I was given time to settle down and fill out a questionnaire, which allowed them to identify my hair concerns and better tailor the treatment to my hair goals.

Oh, and I’d also like to take this time to mention that the staff members are on a first-name basis with regular customers, so the environment doesn’t have that usual cold and clinical feel.

Once the consultant accessed my questionnaire, she used the Tricho-scan to perform a Pre-Treatment Hair and Scalp Scan Analysis, which zoomed into my scalp up to 200 times.

I’m not gonna lie, I was rather horrified by what I saw on the screen. I knew there was going to be dead skin but seeing my scalp red and inflamed was not on my bingo card.

After that horrific scare, I was whisked away to kickstart the scalp treatment with a herbal shoulder wrap for the Aromatherapy Head and Shoulder Massage. This not only calmed me down but also enhanced the absorption of a Customised European Herbal Scalp Masque, which draws out all the excess sebum and clogged pores on my scalp.

As I sipped on my rose tea, I delight in the cooling sensation of the scalp masque. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes for the masque to do its magic, so sit back and relax with the soft piano music playing in the background.

Afterwards, the masque was rinsed out using the Nourishing Hair Bath (TK Trichokare’s best-selling shampoo). For some reason, the smell reminded me of the fresh breezy air by the beach, which definitely helped amp up the Aromatherapy head and shoulder massage thereafter (yes, another one).

This was followed by an application of the Customised Treatment Essence on my scalp using a NanoMist Spray. This essence helps to ensure my scalp is well-hydrated without being too oily and promote hair growth. It also soothes my itchy and flaky scalp and reduces redness — Thank you very much.

Now I’m prepared for the last step — Hair Bang — which uses infrared technology to maintain the scalp’s pH balance, while detoxifying and promoting overall hair and scalp health at the same time. To do this, I had to wear a futuristic-looking helmet which the friendly scalp specialists were more than happy to adjust for my comfort.

I ended my treatment with a Post-Treatment Scalp Scan Analysis. I was very impressed with how my scalp had turned out. From a greasy, flaky and inflamed scalp to a clean and less-reddened scalp with no visible dry flakes, my hair certainly felt taken care of after being neglected for so long.

Truly, undergoing a session with them gave me an opportunity to take a much-needed breather. After the treatment, I was left feeling incredibly relaxed and even managed to get a good night’s sleep.

The post This S$48 scalp treatment is exactly what you need if you’re a busy Gen Z suffering from an inflamed and flaky scalp appeared first on Confirm Good.

While leading this active lifestyle has brought about plenty of benefits, it has also come at a cost — my hair. Since leading this active lifestyle I have noticed that my hair loss has been increasingly alarming. Coupled with the fact that I’m freshly in my thirties, it’s time for me to get to the root of the problem and it was time for a trip to Topp Care Hair Solutions.

Topp Care Hair Solutions is known for their effective scalp care services — having won awards and accolades for their customised treatments, you know they must be really good. They’re also currently having a S$45 trial for their Tricho Activa Treatment , so if you’ve been sitting on the idea of getting your scalp treated, now’s your chance. 

The session begins with filling up a simple questionnaire to give the scalp specialist a little bit more information to craft a custom treatment plan that would suit your lifestyle. 

Once that’s done, it’s time for a scalp scan and analysis. This was my first time getting to see what my scalp looked like up close and I was shaking — what will the scans show? Not gonna lie this part was probably the most nerve-wracking moment of the whole treatment process. 

But what really impressed me was that the specialist could tell me what I was struggling with — namely dandruff, oily scalp, and hair loss. I knew I was troubled with hair loss but I was shocked to find out that I also had an oily scalp and dandruff — just look at the scans (gasps!)

The specialist did mention certain lifestyle factors like sleeping late, eating oily and spicy food, and even excessive exercising can all have an effect on your scalp by clogging up your hair follicles. Thankfully, these are all common hair issues that Topp Care Hair Solutions can certainly take care of.

Armed with all this new information, it was time to get some work done on my scalp. The first step of the treatment is to apply a soothing and cooling plant-based clay masque on my scalp. The masque helps to deep clean the scalp by clearing accumulated oil and unclogging all my clogged hair follicles.

I absolutely loved the floral and botanical scent that came with the masque. Fun fact: Topp Care uses high-quality Western Botanical Ingredients like isochrysis galbana, thuja orientalis extract and more that are extremely gentle on the follicles.

You’ll need to let the masque sit for about 20 minutes, so make sure you get comfy and enjoy the soothing hot tea while you relax. Once that is done, it’s time to wash it all off. And might I say, this was one of the best hair wash experiences I’ve ever had. 

During the hair wash, the specialist used the aromatic Hair Fall Rescue Shampoo, which contains Mandarin Orange Extract and is rich in vitamin C. It also contains antioxidants to protect the scalp and hair from free radicals. She then proceeded to give me a solid head and neck massage which made me doze off at one point — that’s how you know the massage was good.

The specialist then slathered my scalp with a minty fresh and very cooling hair lotion. The lotion contains ingredients that help to strengthen weakened hair and nourish the scalp, and boy did my scalp really feel very nourished after that.

The therapist gave me a good massage to ensure that my scalp was absorbing all the nutrients it needed from the lotion. She also massaged my acupressure points that increase blood circulation to my hair follicles. 

The massage is also said to alleviate stress and tension, and boy was I already beginning to feel lighter on my shoulders — stress be gone! It was super soothing and relaxing, I actually dozed off a little when the therapist was massaging the lotion into my scalp. 

The next step was the Electro Scalp Regeneration which helps to stimulate hair follicles through the activation of fibroblasts. It also helps to induce healing and scalp rejuvenation. For those of you who are experiencing hair loss, this treatment will help to reactivate dormant hair follicles while achieving a healthier scalp at the same time.

The last step of the treatment is the Hair Growth Laser and this step required me to don this futuristic helmet. I was always under the impression that the lasers would feel like tiny little needles poking my scalp. But I was pleasantly surprised that this entire step felt completely painless! You have nothing to worry about even if you have a fear of needles – it’s entirely non-invasive. 

This low-level laser therapy is FDA approved and helps to stimulate the scalp and hair follicles to promote fuller, denser hair growth. The entire process takes about 20 minutes, so feel free to sneak in a quick power nap while you can. 

The entire treatment concluded with a final scan of the scalp and boy was I shocked by the results. I don’t think my scalp has ever looked this fresh and clean before.

My clogged hair follicles had cleared up, and the inflamed areas had reduced. The most reassuring thing was knowing that the build up of dandruff was also gone — yay! It is good to note that regular treatment is needed if you wanna maintain a clean and healthy scalp. 

Topp Care is currently having a promotion for their Tricho Activa Treatment, where you can score yourself a free scalp analysis along with the entire treatment and a free botanical lotion used during the treatment, all for just S$45 (U.P. S$309) — super value for money! Specially for Confirm Good readers, you can enjoy the  Electro Scalp Regeneration therapy by booking your appointment here or via WhatsApp. 

Pamper yourself on your next self-care day, make sure to head down to Topp Care Hair Solutions to treat yourself (and your scalp) to a nourishing treatment, relaxing massages and so much more. Make your reservation now!

The post I struggled with hair loss, greasy scalp, and dandruff that made me lose confidence but this S$45 botanical treatment changed all that appeared first on Confirm Good.

I’ve tried practically all sorts of products in order to tame my frizzy and wavy hair (and a few dubious products probably irritated my roots), but it really doesn’t help that it’s always so humid in Singapore. Plus, I’ve got to admit that the previous times that I bleached and dyed my hair definitely distressed my scalp as well. I started to see more hair falling — so much so that I started worrying about whether I was headed for premature hair loss. 

Eventually, I knew I had to do something to remedy the situation. I didn’t want to do any more salon treatments — they were pretty pricey, and worked for a while — but they didn’t solve the root of the problem. Then, I was recommended to try out this S$40 trial for Topp Care Hair Solution’s customised scalp clarifying treatment promotion.

I was initially a little reluctant, because I felt like these scalp treatments are stereotypically geared towards a more senior age group. However, I was instantly comforted when I saw the other patrons — some of them were probably around my age, or just slightly older. 

First things first, I was brought to a consultation room for the dreaded scalp scan and analysis. This was the first time seeing my scalp up close and personal, but one look was all it took for the hair and scalp specialist to tell me what I was dealing with. She started off by telling me that I had an oily scalp and explained that the built up sebum and oil was clogging my hair follicles, making it difficult for new hair to grow. 

This was it — the reason for my hair loss! Not to mention, I even discovered that I had some dandruff. Gasp. 

Plus, lifestyle factors like sleeping late, eating oily food, and not drying your hair completely can also contribute to an oily scalp. NGL, I felt a little called out by this since it practically described my (bad) habits… 

Armed with all this information, I headed to the treatment area where I was immediately served with a cup of warm chrysanthemum tea. To start with, the specialist applied a plant-based cooling clay mask directly to my scalp for deep cleansing and to clear the accumulated oil from my pores. It smelt pleasantly herbal, and I was told that Topp Care uses high-quality natural Western Botanical ingredients that are extremely gentle on the follicles such as Thuja Orientalis, Burdock, and Thyme.

The mask was allowed to sit for 20 minutes before it was washed off — and I’ve got to say, this was one of my favourite hair wash experiences. 

The specialist thoroughly shampooed my hair, and even taught me how to wash my hair without damaging my scalp. It was genuinely so comfortable that I almost fell asleep at this point!

Once I was back at my seat, she lathered a leave-in conditioner onto my hair before blow-drying it, then applied a botanical lotion to my scalp. I liked that she explained what she was doing every step of the way — this one contained Panax Ginseng Root and Thuja Orientalis extract, and was to promote hair growth and rejuvenate my scalp. The best part? She also massaged my scalp to really make sure that my pores absorbed all that goodness, and even gave my shoulders and neck a quick rub. 

For the last part of the treatment, the specialist had me undergo their Hair Growth Laser, which uses lasers and infra-red energy to energise and awaken hair follicles so as to stimulate hair growth. I had expected some discomfort for this part, but I ended up being pleasantly surprised — the helmet used was light, and the lasers weren’t hot at all. 

And that was it! The post-treatment scan clearly showed that the dandruff had been cleared, and the layer of oil had been removed. Plus, my hair also looked and felt way healthier. It was really that simple. 

I mean, achieving these impressive results in just one session — imagine how much improvement you’ll see with follow-up treatments from a customised regimen! Plus, better hair growth stems from having a healthier scalp, so I felt like this really targeted the root of my hair loss issues. While the treatment usually costs S$309, new customers of Topp Care can enjoy this trial for just S$40. Overall, I’ve got to admit that I’m pretty sold! 

Topp Care is helmed by a team of experienced hair care specialists with over 10 years of experience in solving hair loss, greying & thinning concerns for all ages. They’re also a member of the British Herbal Medicine Association, and certified by the US Trichology Institute, so you know you’re in good hands.

If you’re plagued by hair and scalp concerns, be sure to head down to Topp Care Hair Solution to experience their customised treatment for yourself!

The post Facing hair loss while in your twenties? I tried everything, and this is the only thing that worked for me appeared first on Confirm Good.

Though they do leave my hair feeling soft, the effect fades away after a few days and I’m still prone to thin hair and scalp itching. At this point, the desperate search for a cure has only left me head-scratching (pun intended). 

So on the fateful day when my boss asked the office, “Would anyone like to try a hair and scalp revitalising at Beijing 101?” I jumped the gun and said yes. 

Hair and Scalp Revitalising Treatment at Beijing 101 Hair Care Centre

In all honesty, I was sceptical about my visit. I’ve always known Beijing 101 Hair Consultants as a professional hair loss specialist, but I never knew that they offered solutions for other hair woes too. 

Upon entering the outlet, I was ushered into a private consultation room, which I greatly appreciated. After all, seeking professional help for hair problems requires much more privacy than when you’re going for a luxurious unicorn hair transformation.

After settling in, my hair consultant, Ann, then did a close-up analysis of my hair and scalp. What we saw helped me to figure out the root cause of my problem.

We could see that my hair follicles were clogged due to sebum and dead skin build-ups from the picture. There were also some red patches on my scalp, which signified sensitivity. This in turn had resulted in thin hair growth and weaker hair. 

Instead of simply eyeballing and suggesting an “all-in-one” treatment, Beijing 101 Hair Consultants does a thorough consultation for your hair and scalp. The treatment is then customised according to your needs. 

I was then led into a room where a plush and spacious armchair awaited. Though the room that I used was private, I noticed that in the common area, each seat was segregated by dividers which offered more privacy for patrons and it abided by safety distancing measures as well.

When I was comfortably seated, a customised scalp mask was then applied all over my scalp to clear dead skin build-ups and moisturize the area. The solution smelled minty and left a cooling sensation — it was invigorating, given the fact that my head was constantly exposed to Singapore’s scorching sun. 

The mask was left to sit for 20 minutes before I was guided to a separate section of the room for a hair wash.

Over here, the water is regulated at optimal temperatures so that it’s comfortable to touch, and Ann constantly checked in to make sure that I was cosy. Shampoo and conditioner were applied to my hair and I was given a rejuvenating massage that focused on my temples, nape and crown. 

It was an experience that I highly valued since I tend to get headaches after sitting in the same position for a prolonged time.

After washing off the mask, I was led back to the chair and my hair was foamed up again — this time, with a shampoo to soften oil clogs and rid your hair follicles of excess sebum, dead skin build-up and other impurities. 

While Ann gave my scalp and hair a good scrub, she also advised that we should use our fingertips — not our nails — to wash the scalp when shampooing, as this could damage the scalp. Also, conditioner should not be directly applied to the scalp as this would clog your hair follicles. I felt truly pampered and even joked with Ann, “You treat me better than my boyfriend does.”

The scrub lasted for about 10 minutes and Ann then directed me back to the washing area. Just when I thought that we were done, she surprised me by pouring another flask of herbal solution into the bath, soaking my hair in it. She explained that when the procedure is done this way, it improves the hair’s absorption of nutrients. 

The solution was also poured slowly onto my scalp, which felt extremely therapeutic.

Following the hair wash, I was provided with a heated sea salt shoulder warmer that snugged nicely on the neck. If you have low cold tolerance, this will warm you right up.

The top of my head was blow-dried, and a tonic was applied and massaged into my scalp. Besides improving the absorption of nutrients into the hair follicles, the massaging also aids in stress relief and promotes hair growth. 

The process was repeated twice and I treasured every moment — it isn’t every day that you’re treated like a princess. 

While the tonic used on me was for sensitive scalp and the regeneration of scalp cells, Beijing 101 Hair Consultants offers various hair and scalp treatments to control your hair woes such as hair loss, oily scalp, grey hair and dry and damaged hair.

Once the tonic had set in, my hair was fully blow-dried and I felt instantly rejuvenated. My scalp also felt fresh and light — which was a far comparison from the tight sensation I’m used to after a bath. 

A second consultation confirmed that what I was feeling wasn’t a placebo effect. The scan allowed me to compare the before (left) and after (right) pictures, and showed that the previously clogged pores were now “opened” and rid of impurities. There was also lesser grime and sebum build-up on the scalp, and these were achieved with just one session. 

With repeated monthly sessions, it’s no doubt that thicker hair density and growth can be achieved, along with improved hair condition. At the time of writing, my hair still feels light and moisturized at the ends, a stark contrast to the usual hair treatment effects that visibly vanish after just one wash.

If you’d like to tackle your hair and scalp issues with Beijing 101 Hair Care Centre, you’ll be glad to know that we’ve got a special promotion for you. 

At a heavily discounted price of S$40 (U.P. S$532), you’ll get to enjoy a Customised Hair and Scalp Revitalising Treatment which includes a complimentary hair and scalp analysis, a Puri-Mask Application and a Signature Meridian Scalp Treatment.
