One of the places to try the viral 15-step Korean scalp treatment is the Eco Jardin by Park Jun salon, nestled beside Gongdeok station in Seoul (Best City in the Wallpaper* Design Awards 2024). One of South Korea’s most comprehensive scalp treatments, it incorporates products containing plant-based ingredients alongside human stem cell culture extract, known for effective hair loss prevention. The meticulous process takes approximately 90 minutes to complete. Practitioners at the salon spend a year studying scalp physiology, so all are well-versed in the treatment’s effects (from an intensely deep cleanse to purported relief from insomnia and stress).
It starts with a microscopic scalp analysis (in which an image of the client’s follicles appears digitally enlarged on a screen). Is your scalp too dry? Or too oily? Perhaps there is a build-up of products that show the need for a deeper cleanse than previously thought. (Using heavy products and skipping a clarifying scrub or shampoo, or using dry shampoo that is recommended for your hair type, can lead to this issue).
