🎙️ ORION XO PODCAST · BEAUTY, THE KOREAN WAY · EPISODE 4
Episode 4 of the ORION XO Podcast: Beauty, the Korean Way brings our hair fall and scalp care series together. In Korea, scalp care is treated like skincare: a simple routine, done consistently. This guide goes with the episode and turns it into an easy weekly routine for Sri Lanka's climate.
Every wash day
- Brush before washing: gently detangle dry hair to loosen build-up.
- Wet thoroughly: use lukewarm water and soak your scalp, not just your hair.
- Shampoo twice: the first wash lifts oil, sweat, and build-up. The second wash cleans the scalp properly.
- Massage for 60 seconds: use your fingertips or a scalp brush in small circles. Never use your nails.
- Rinse well: leftover shampoo can irritate the scalp.
- Condition the ends only: keep conditioner and hair serum away from the roots.
- Dry the scalp: towel-dry gently, then make sure your roots are dry before tying hair or sleeping.
Every week
- Clean your tools: wash combs, brushes, and your scalp brush.
- Fresh pillowcase: change it at least once a week.
- Helmet hygiene: wear a thin cotton cap underneath and wash it often.
- Hair oiling, done right: if you oil your hair, leave it on for a few hours, then wash it out properly.
Habits to avoid
- Going to bed with wet hair
- Very tight ponytails and buns every day
- Scratching an itchy scalp
- Daily high heat from straighteners or dryers

Frequently asked questions
Why shampoo twice?
In hot, humid weather, the first wash mostly removes oil, sweat, and build-up. The second wash can then cleanse the scalp properly.
How long before I see results?
Hair grows slowly, so give a new routine at least 2 to 3 months of consistent use.
Is a scalp brush safe to use every day?
Yes, when used gently with shampoo. Use light pressure and stop if your scalp feels sore.
