Ryo- leading South Korean shampoo brand

Ryo is the leading shampoo brand in South Korea and also a multi-award winning shampoo brand.

Ryo launched its Hair Loss Care range which is the essence of a 46-year scalp study that uses highly concentrated ginseng saponins as an active ingredient in its formulation. Combined with a patented technology known as GinsenEX, follicular cells are further strengthened resulting in healthier roots. In the product formulation, one will also find licorice which is used to help manage the hair growth cycle while green tea and ginger are used to help protect follicular cells from stress and also adds to strengthening the roots.

Now Ryo added its latest products in the Hair Loss Care Series which consist of the Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX and the Ryo Hair Loss Care Essence.

These two products when used together with Ryo’s Hair Loss Care shampoo and treatment, are effective in combating hair loss. Ryo’s Chief Hair Designer, Jeong Seok explains that healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp and that scalp care is definitely essential in ensuring that hair stays healthy and thereby preventing hair loss.

I was very excited because out of all, hair loss problem is my number one daily battle. I drop hair in my bedroom, in the living hall, in the bathroom and on my hairbrush. My husband sometimes question whether will I go bald after this -.-

Ryo believes that achieving a harmonious balance between the ‘Yul (hair)-Ryo (scalp)’ is important in achieving healthy lustrous hair but any hair issues must first be addressed from the scalp. Therefore, Ryo’s treatment remains focused on the scalp.

Ryo Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX (145ml) RM59.90

Ryo’s first step towards combating hair loss is by scalp scaling. Scalp scaling is the only way to deep cleanse your scalp on a regular basis. Without a clean scalp, there is poor absorption of shampoo.

Therefore, Ryo’s Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX is introduced as the first step in haircare to help women maintain a healthy scalp. Fortified with botanical ingredients, the deep cleansing scaler works in multiple ways which include:

1. Getting rid of dead skin cells using BHA-derived ingredients

2. Cleansing excessive sebum using naturally derived surfactant in the formula 

3. Soothing the scalp using the extract of the chestnut’s inner skin and cooling the scalp using naturally derived peppermint oil. This function offers relief to the scalp especially during the hot and humid weather

4. Strengthening and nourishing the hair from root to tip using highly concentrated ginseng extract (GinsenEX)

The Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX offers mild cleansing with PH5.5 and its free from 7 harmful ingredients. It works like a booster and it is to be used twice a week on damp hair before shampooing. Apply along scalp texture about 5-6 times and gently massage all over scalp for 1-2 minutes before rinsing. This step is followed by Ryo Hair Loss Care Shampoo and Treatment.

I have never used a Deep Cleansing Scaler before. This is actually my first time and the sharp tip was helpful in application so that it will not spill all over and acts as a scalp massager. It is also minty and have a cooling sensation which is what I love the most.

Ryo’s Hair Loss Care Essence is another effective scalp treatment which offers hair root nourishment. It also incorporates an exclusive Amorepacific technology that extracts 20 times more fortified active Korean Ginseng extract without the heat treatment so that the ingredient is able to deliver to its full efficacy. The ginseng contained in this product is also carefully selected to ensure it contains the highest saponin content. 

To sum it all, there are five reasons why the Hair Loss Care Essense is an effective treatment:

1. GinsenEX that produces highly concentrated ginsenocide

2. Advanced patented extraction technology that preserves the full benefits of ginseng 

3. Careful selection of ginseng with the highest level of saponins

4. Herbal Complex formulation with the combination of other natural ingredients such as green tea, licorice and ginger

5. Five-free formula – free from animal ingredients, synthetic colourants, mineral oil, Triethanolamine and Polyacrylamide.

For best results, use the Hair Loss Care Essence twice daily after shampooing and treatment.

Apply directly onto dry scalp and especially on hair loss or problem areas then use the massage tip to give your scalp a good massage. 

I did a scalp analysis at the launch event.

As expected, I have oily scalp. I have been having this problem and no matter what shampoo I use, my scalp remain oily and my hair loss never improved.

I am now grateful for Ryo's Hair Loss Care Range and I have been using for over a week now and I can see fewer hair drop after I wash my hair. Also, my scalp felt cleaner with less dandruff. But for non ginseng lover due to the smell, just a head's up that the ginseng scent can be a bit overpowering. Can't wait to see more improvement on my hair! 

Both the Scalp Deep Cleansing Scaler EX and the Ryo Hair Loss Care Essence will be available at all Watsons stores and Hermo from July 2019 onwards.
