The Scalp Protector is a scalp protection serum that is applied to the hair before any technical service, for greater scalp comfort. It's like protection against the chemicals from the coloring, with active soothing active ingredients like Chamomile extract, and free from parabens and fragrance, this is a valued add-on that is included in the price.

Let’s do a breakdown of each individual service to showcase more photos and to recap what the service is about.

Color + Highlights

There are many different styles of highlights that you can consider. The first thing is the highlights stripes, it can be thin like babylights, or thick, or many stripes, or lesser and subtle stripes. Here are some examples -

The highlights below are all done by bleaching, but we can do other kinds of highlights too, either by coloring or lightening if you prefer non-bleach highlights. One of our previous promotion was highlights in 7 different colors, here are the 7 japanese highlights photos below. If you want to read more on the Japanese highlights, click here.

Japan Smoky Color without bleach

By far, this is our most popular coloring style which I believe is due to it not having to bleach the hair and yet it is able to achieve special colors like ash purple. This is done with a lifting, to lift the hair to a light brown, and thereafter, the color application.

Lifting is a less damaging process compared to bleaching, a healthier alternative but the tradeoff is the outcome is darker. This is like a smoky, darker version of the original intended color. To read about the entire procedure of this and the entire color choices, click here.

Balayage without bleach

The traditional balayage is a coloring style where the lower half of the hair is bleached and colored. With knowledge from our japan smoky color series, we can now do lifting on the lower 60% length of the hair and do a smoky balayage, for example, a smoky rose brown. Instead of the full length smoky color, you have a healthier alternative to the classic balayage, a non-bleach balayage. More info on the balayage without bleach here.

Yinyang 2-tone color without bleach

This would be the most straightforward coloring style, similar to an underlight, this would be the normal version of an underlight for 2 layers of coloring without bleaching. This means, you can do colors like a darker brown on the outside, lighter brown on the inside, or dark purple on the outside, and dark red on the inside. To read up more on this coloring style over here.

Other Customization

Other than the usual coloring, there are also other ways to customize the coloring further, such as a Money Piece where the streaks on the front is colored, or just the sides on the earloop, the left and right only.

That’s about it! Let’s dive in more on our CNY plan so that you can start to plan the date for your CNY hair. In short, our prices and services of the month will remain the same all the way until we close for CNY, which is 20/1/2023. Our operating duration will also change to 10am to 10pm from 1/1 to 20/1.

For the 2024 CNY surcharge, it will begin on 1/2/24 to 8/2/24, there will be no surcharge for December or January. The CNY surcharge will be at $15 for chemical services, which means anything that is chemical-based like rebonding, perming, coloring, keratin treatment, premium treatments, etc. And for haircut (including olaplex mini treatment), the surcharge will be $5. If you’re doing a chemical service + haircut, the surcharge will remain at $15 instead of $15 + $5.

Stem Cell Treatment Promotion

Hello there! We are having a new promotion for November and this is something that we rarely talk about it. Most of our regulars will know about our Stem Cell treatment but how does it work? Let’s find out!

Due to various reasons, the hair bonds inside the hair could be broken or damaged, caused by diet, lack of haircare, or overexposure to chemicals, which results in dry and/or brittle hair. The hair is easily broken, or just dry (jokingly, like grass).

To put it simply, we have 3 types of hair bonds in the hair - Disulfide bonds, Salt bonds, and Hydrogen bonds. All 3 work together to keep the hair healthy, strong, and thick. When it is healthy, the hair is supposed to be a little stretchy, like a rubber band, and when it loses this stretchiness, it is a sign that the bonds are broken.

When the bonds are broken, unless the cells are totally fried or dead, it is possible for it to heal by itself without any hair products. But it will take a really long time, maybe up to 6 months or a year with consistent conditioning and hair mask. There was a huge need to shorten this duration.

And fortunately, less than a decade ago, there was a breakthrough in hair technology where a major company invented a way to rebuild our broken hair bonds in the hair. Usually, our hair is formed by many many many hair bonds closely bonded with each other forming a very strong and healthy strand.

That major company patented a way to use chemicals to rebuild the broken hair bonds in the hair but there is also another technology that contains argan stem cells and various hair vitamins to trigger the stem cells in your hair to rebuild itself.

For example, when you put a plaster on the wound and given time, the skin will heal by itself. This is how the Stem Cell Treatment works, promoting rebuilding and healing.

This works the same way as the plaster theory too, it allows our cells to rebuild themselves from within, fixing the broken bonds, little by little, and the vitamins boost the strength and vitality of each hair strand. It is an excellent boost of moisture too. The feedback that we usually get is the hair ends felt different. It looks physically more healthy and the hair is a lot better to touch.

The main ingredient is Argan Stem Cell, known for its regenerative and anti-aging properties, and also a couple of hair vitamins to boost the repair and moisturizing effect. And when it is coupled with coloring, it helps to balance out the damage from the chemicals.

With that said, this is our Service of the month for November -

Color (without bleaching) + Stem Cell Treatment @ $118

For all lengths inclusive of haircut

In short, this is our top-tier hair repair treatment with a deep moisturizing function that uses stem cell technology which allows your hair to heal itself. This is highly recommended given the premium ingredients that will give your haircare game a great push toward natural healthy hair.

However, one important thing to take note of is that, while the Stem Cell Treatment is a good repair treatment, it is unlikely to reverse all of the previous hair damage. It will still depend on how damaged the hair is, and to what extent it is damaged.

But all in all, many of our customers enjoyed it, and you will too.

That’s about it! To book an appointment, you can call our hair studios at 6259 4631 (tiong bahru) or 6336 1476 (bugis cube), whatsapp us directly @http://wa.me/6590250432 (whatsapp only). Thank you for reading! Stay safe and healthy! :)

What is Keramimic Treatment

Hello there! For ladies with frizzy and unmanageable hair, this will be very helpful. A new article to introduce a promotion that has not been introduced for a while. Previously, we did a calculation, counting how many of our customers did this service, and the number is quite surprising.

It was around two third of all our appointments in a month. Our regulars and VIP members might know about this service but it’s time to introduce it to more people so that more people can enjoy the effect of this service.

Introducing our Keramimic Treatment, a keratin + collagen-based treatment which will have a tremendous effect on the hair. The name is very interesting too, it is made up of 2 different words - Keratin + Mimic, keramimic. This means, it is imitative of the element - keratin. An important thing to note is that although it has similar ingredients, this is not a keratin treatment.

Without going too in-depth on hair science, 90% of our hair is made up of keratin, and it is an essential protein to protect the hair from damage. And collagen is a type of structural protein that the body needs to produce keratin.

Once again, what is our hair mostly made up of? Keratin. And what does this treatment provide? Keratin + Collagen, exactly what the hair needs.

Before we discuss the effect, let’s go through a visual representation of a damaged hair that undergoes the treatment -

For this lady, she had her hair bleached entirely a couple of rounds in the past, this is actually a very beautiful light blonde but we can also see that the hair is quite lifeless, frizzy, and a little unmanageable. The hair will feel very rough too.

A healthy hair is full of keratin and collagen so the strand appears fuller, healthier, and docile. By docile, it means there are little flyaway strands and it has sufficient weight to keep the hair down without flying around.

When the hair is bleached, layers of the hair might be stripped away by the bleaching so sometimes the hair appears thinner. It’s similar to our human body, when we have a bit of muscle, we look healthier and stronger, and the same goes for the hair too.

This means, conversely, without sufficient keratin in the hair, the typical outcome will be like this, lifeless, frizzy, and unmanageable.

And after the keramimic treatment, this is what it looks like

The entire hair looks like it has hit the refresh F5 button on the keyboard, it looks entirely different. Haha.

Previously, the 3 issues are lifeless, frizzy, and unmanageable, it is not lifeless anymore as we can see the strands have gotten slightly thicker. This is because a lot of keratin + collagen has been applied and locked in each hair strand itself.

To add further, when the strand has sufficient keratin to fix all the damaged parts, it will be visibly fuller by itself, and with it being slightly heavier (extra keratin), the frizz and unmanageable issues are reduced by a lot. This is what healthy hair should look like.

With that said, this is the price -

Keramimic Treatment @ $138 (for one pax)

This is for all hair lengths, inclusive of haircut

The base of this treatment is made up of Keratin + Collagen, one of our best all-rounded treatment

Function of the treatment

As a lot of keratin + collagen will be applied and locked in the hair, this helps to reduce frizz, soften the hair by a lot, increase the manageability and vitality of the hair. If you want softer, well-managed, lesser frizz, visibly healthier hair, this is it. When the hair loses its keratin and is damaged, the most effective solution will be to replenish the keratin back in the hair. You give the hair what it needs. A very simple and effective answer to haircare.

Short FAQ

1. Is this like the keratin treatment? It is slightly similar but it’s not a keratin treatment. Keratin treatment has a stronger smoothing and straightening effect, the keramimic treatment is more focused on the softening, moisturizing, an all-rounded service, but lesser on the straightening effect.

2. So will it straighten the hair? It will, but not for long. The straightening effect is not strong.

If you are planning to do coloring, you can combine the coloring service with the keramimic treatment too. It will help to balance out the damages. Here are some of the photos that combine coloring with the treatment -

That’s about it for the treatment. I hope you enjoy the treatment as much as our customers do. To book an appt, you can call our hair studios at 6259 4631 (tiong bahru) or 6336 1476 (bugis cube), whatsapp us directly @ http://wa.me/6590250432 (whatsapp only). Stay safe and healthy! :)
