Wife and I are six months into living in BKK and both suffering from dry scalp. Advice?

We have very different skin types, so this is strange for us. Anyone else have this issue after moving to BKK? Any suggestions on how to deal with it?

The hard water is almost certainly the culprit. I had the same issue for my first few months here. Switching to a shower filter made a noticeable difference for both me and my partner, and you can pick them up at HomePro for around 1,500 baht. You might also try rinsing with bottled or filtered water as a final step, which helped me when my scalp was at its worst.

It's definitely a thing here. The water in Bangkok is quite hard and heavily chlorinated, which strips natural oils from your scalp. I'd suggest trying a chelating shampoo once a week to remove mineral buildup, and a humidifier in your bedroom at night helps a ton. If you're near Siam, the Korean beauty store in Siam Square has a great scalp toner that's worked for me.

yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
