Whenever we discuss cleansing products and routines, the first thing that comes to mind would almost always be skin cleansers. Yet, how often do we think about deep cleansing our scalp, which is usually hidden under all those layers of hair?

If you regularly use styling products like hairspray and wax, you should pay extra attention to thoroughly removing them from your scalp as the oils and residue of hair styling products can linger around even after washing.

The buildup of product residue, excess sebum, and dead skin cells in and around the hair follicles can result in irritated scalp at best and scalp inflammation at worst, which can feel tender and uncomfortable.

Ryo, the leading hair care brand in South Korea, has officially launched in Singapore and its full range of products can be found in Guardian stores and online.

With over 46 years of experience in researching and developing products for a healthier scalp, Ryo recently introduced the Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX – a scalp cleanser specially formulated to soothe and remove impurities from your scalp, and at the same time, strengthen and nourish each strand of hair.

This unique product is to be used before your shampooing step, to provide deep cleansing for the scalp – something that most of us neglect in our hair care routine.

Daily Vanitywas given a first look at the Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX during Ryo’s media launch and one of the things that stood out to us was its mild and refreshing scent of ginseng.

This is because the cleanser is formulated with GinsenEX, an ingredient that is said to give your hair the nourishment it needs from the root to the tip. It also contains naturally-derived peppermint oil to give a cooling sensation on your scalp, which we think is always welcomed in the Singapore heat!

The Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX is developed for use before you embark on the first step of your hair care routine (shampooing) to ensure a complete, deep cleanse of your scalp. Simply dampen your hair, part it five times to reveal the scalp, and apply the Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX with gentle massaging, leaving it on for two minutes.

Besides the Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX, Ryo has also introduced the Hair Loss Care Essence to complete the Hair Loss Care range. The above-mentioned products, as well as all other Ryo product lines, can be found at Guardian, both in stores and online.
