Hair Clinic vs Scalp Clinic: Which Treatment Do You Need?

Hair clinic and scalp clinic sound alike, but they work on different places. A hair clinic treats the hair that has already grown; a scalp clinic treats the scalp the hair grows from. If your ends are dry and break easily, look at a hair clinic. If your scalp gets oily quickly or feels heavy soon after washing, look at a scalp clinic.

Hair clinic — for the lengths

This is for hair that has gone dry from frequent colour or perms, or that will not smooth out even after blow-drying. Cheonho has three hair clinic treatments: Premium, Royal and Diamond. Which one suits you is decided by looking at your hair, and we explain it when you book or at the consultation. It is often added to a perm or colour.

Scalp clinic — for the scalp

At Cheonho, scalp clinic means a head spa course.

• 15-Step Head Spa — the core course that clears the scalp and replenishes it
• 18-Step Premium Head Spa — adds scalp massage, an herbal scalp pack and a steam mist cap, giving more time to relaxation and calming
• Face Lifting Head Spa

Both step courses begin by checking the scalp under a microscope and check it again before finishing. The full sequence is in our post on 15 vs 18 steps.

Worried about both? Start with the scalp

Eco Jardin works from the idea that behind well-grown hair there is always a well-cared-for scalp. If both scalp and lengths concern you, we suggest settling the scalp first, then working on the hair and the style. Associate Director Junghwa Hong combines scalp clinic and design colour this way.

The products

The shampoo, treatment, activator scalp tonic and ampoule used in both are Eco Jardin's own line.

Please note

Head spas and clinic treatments are beauty care, not medical treatment. If you suspect a scalp condition or hair loss, see a doctor first. Prices depend on your designer and your hair and scalp condition, and you can choose designer and time together on Naver Booking.
