Frequently Asked Questions About Our Scalp Detox
01.
How do I know if my scalp needs a detox?
Common signs are a scalp that turns greasy within a day of washing, a sour smell that returns quickly, itching, flakes, or roots that feel heavy and flat. In Singapore, heat and humidity raise sweat and oil output, while sunscreen, dry shampoo and styling products leave layers a regular shampoo doesn't fully lift. A professional scalp detox clears this buildup from around the follicle so the scalp can rebalance.
02
How often should I get a scalp detox in Singapore?
Every 3 to 4 weeks suits most people in Singapore's climate. Your scalp renews itself roughly every 28 days, so a monthly session stops oil and buildup from settling back in. If your scalp is very oily or you style your hair daily, Room's headspa therapist may suggest staying close to the 3-week mark.
03
Can a scalp detox get rid of scalp odour?
Most scalp odour comes from sweat and sebum mixing with buildup and the microbes that live on the scalp, which thrive in humid weather. Our Rebalancing treatment absorbs excess oil and has anti-odour properties, so your scalp feels and smells fresh after treatment. Drying your scalp fully after every wash helps it stay that way. If odour persists despite good care, please see a doctor, as it can signal a scalp condition.
04
Does the Naked Gorilla Head Spa help with dandruff?
Yes, for everyday dandruff and flaking. The Regenerating treatment exfoliates dead skin and lifts flakes and buildup, while the massage improves circulation to the scalp. Dandruff tends to return without home care, so we will suggest a simple routine between visits.
05
Is the Naked Gorilla Head Spa suitable for a sensitive or itchy scalp?
Yes. Our Soothing treatment is formulated for scalps prone to itching, redness and tightness, and every Naked Gorilla product is free from SLS and SLES, synthetic fragrance and artificial colourants. Your therapist will check your scalp before choosing your treatment. For a highly sensitive scalp, we may recommend our Japanese Head Spa instead, as its formulas are gentler and more hydrating.
06
What is the difference between the Naked Gorilla and Japanese Head Spa?
All Room head spas treat common scalp concerns and include our hands-on lymphatic drainage massage.
The Regular and Premium Japanese Head Spas lean towards relaxation, using gentle formulas suited to sensitive scalps. The Naked Gorilla Head Spa is our most intensive cleanse, with three plant-based formulas for oily, dandruff-prone and sensitive scalps. Choose it when your scalp's condition is the main reason you are booking.
A clean, well-circulated scalp gives hair a healthier place to grow, and that is what the Naked Gorilla Head Spa focuses on. If you are noticing thinning or more shedding than usual, our Morimana Exosome Hair Loss Treatment is designed for that. Sudden or patchy hair loss should be checked by a doctor.
Can the Naked Gorilla Head Spa treat hair loss?
07
Yes. Book both in one visit and we will plan the order and timing so your hair service and scalp treatment each get the right attention. If you had colour, bleach or a perm elsewhere recently, tell us when booking so we can check your scalp first.
Can I combine a scalp detox with a haircut or colour?
