Effect of a Hair Loss Management Concurrently Incorporating Aroma Scalp Massage on Hair and Scalp Conditions

Abstract

This study is a similar experimental study aimed at analyzing the effects of a hair loss management program combined with aroma scalp massage on changes in hair and scalp conditions. The study included 8 participants each in the experimental and control groups, aged 20 to 50, who underwent the hair loss management program once a week for 8 weeks. Data collected were analyzed using the SPSS 26.0 program. The results showed that, firstly, both groups did not show significant differences in hair thickness and density based on the timing of management and between-group differences. Secondly, both groups showed significant increases in moisture and oiliness after 4 and 8 weeks, while stratum corneum amount, pore condition, and scalp surface significantly decreased. A significant decrease in stratum corneum amount was observed in the experimental group after 8 weeks. Thirdly, subjective satisfaction evaluations after management revealed significantly higher satisfaction ratings in the experimental group.
