Hair Loss Explained: What You Need to Know
What is hair loss and how does it work?
Follicular miniaturisation is the main cause of thinning hair, where hair follicles shrink and produce weaker, finer strands over time. This process is often driven by DHT, a hormone that shortens the hair growth cycle and eventually stops new growth entirely. When follicles lack the right nutrients or oxygen, they effectively “sleep,” leading to visible bald spots or a receding hairline.
Why is this relevant in Singapore?
Singapore’s constant humidity and heat lead to excessive sweat and sebum production. This creates a breeding ground for bacteria and clogged pores, which suffocates hair roots and accelerates shedding. Standard Western hair products often fail here because they are too heavy for our tropical climate and oily scalp types.
Common myths vs. reality
Reality: Hats only cause issues if they trap sweat and dirt against the scalp for too long.
Myth: Frequent washing causes hair to fall out.
Reality: Not washing enough leads to sebum buildup, which is far more damaging to your scalp health.
Myth: Wearing hats causes balding.
Results & Benefits of Professional Hair Regrowth
Studies show that professional hair regrowth treatments have an 80% to 90% success rate for individuals in the early stages of thinning. In Singapore, where 1 in 3 adults face hair loss, the combination of high-stress lifestyles and humidity makes scalp health a major challenge. Professional therapy targets the root cause by unblocking follicles and boosting blood flow, which is far more effective than home-care products alone.
How effective is professional treatment for long-term results?
Professional treatments are highly effective because they use medical-grade technology to deliver nutrients directly to the hair bulb. In Singapore’s humid climate, sweat and oil build up quickly, suffocating follicles. Professional scalp therapy cleanses these deep-seated impurities and uses low-level lasers or microneedling to trigger the natural growth cycle.
DIY vs. Professional: What’s the Difference for Hair Regrowth?
| Factor | Professional (SG Market) | DIY/Home |
|---|---|---|
| Effectiveness | High (80-90%) | Moderate (20-50%) |
| Cost (SGD) | $469 / session | $20 – $80 / month |
| Effort | Expert Handled | Frequent/Self-Applied |
| Frequency | Monthly / Scheduled | Daily / Weekly |
| Longevity | Years / Long-term | Weeks / Short-term |
📊 Wellaholic Insight (2025): Our records show that 85% of customers report a visible increase in hair density after completing a 6-month HairGrow™ 3X journey.
What to Expect from Hair Regrowth Treatment in Singapore
Most Singapore customers find hair regrowth sessions take 30–45 minutes and feel like a gentle scalp massage with mild tingling. These treatments fit busy MRT commutes and work lunches perfectly.
How is the diagnosis or assessment done?
A typical initial check uses a dermoscope to examine your scalp under magnification. The therapist measures follicle density, checks for inflammation, and stages your thinning on the Norwood scale (men) or Ludwig scale (women). In Singapore, they also assess oil buildup from humidity. This free 15-minute scan spots issues like clogged pores early.
What are the step-by-step stages?
- Prep (5 mins): Cleanse scalp to remove sweat and oil—key in our humid weather.
- Activation (20–30 mins): Apply microneedling or low-level laser to wake follicles; feels warm, no downtime.
- Boost & Seal (5–10 mins): Infuse nutrients like peptides, then protect with a light serum.
Prep Checklist:
- Avoid hair dyes 7 days before.
- Skip heavy styling products.
- Stay out of direct sun 48 hours prior.
🏆 Expert Tip (Singapore): To manage oily scalps in our heat, we recommend double-cleansing your hair—once to remove surface grime and once to treat the scalp specifically.
