Korean haircare has grown beyond basic shampoo and conditioner. Scalp-focused shampoos, leave-in treatments and lightweight serums are increasingly common in Korea, but many of these products remain difficult to find in Canada.

What is Korean scalp care?
Scalp-care products are designed around cleansing, comfort and the feel of the scalp rather than treating hair length alone. Depending on the formula, they may use botanical extracts, cooling ingredients, conditioning agents or lightweight leave-in textures.
They should still be treated as cosmetics rather than medical treatments. If you have persistent scalp irritation or hair-loss concerns, a healthcare professional is more appropriate than a cosmetic shampoo.
CH6 scalp shampoos
CH6 is one of the more unusual Korean haircare brands currently available through Blushcraft. The range includes products such as Ginger Beer Hair & Scalp Care Shampoo and Sprout Scalp SSAG Shampoo.

Leave-in scalp serum
The CH6 Green Beer Lab Aloforthya Serum is a leave-in scalp product. Unlike a rinse-out conditioner, a scalp serum is applied in a small amount after cleansing and is designed to sit lightly on the scalp.
No-wash hair treatments
No-wash treatments are designed for the hair lengths rather than the scalp. CH6 Greenol Herb Hair Control No-Wash Treatment and products from SALON BAEKSEO can fit into a routine after washing, especially when the hair feels dry or difficult to manage.
A simple Korean haircare routine
- Cleanse the scalp and roots thoroughly.
- Use a rinse-out conditioner or treatment if your hair needs it.
- Apply a small amount of leave-in treatment through the lengths.
- If using a scalp serum, apply it separately to the scalp according to the product directions.
