In this study, it is intended to provide basic research data on hair loss and problematic scalp that is expanding to lower age groups and women. When using Company B's hair ampoule containing L-Menthol, Salicylic acid, and Dexpanthenol daily for women in their 20s with problematic scalp, the effect on the scalp and hair after 4 weeks was investigated. As a result of this study, when using Company B's ampoule containing L-Menthol, Salicylic acid, and Dexpanthenol, the subjects showed improvement effects such as relieving inflammation, reducing scalp fever and erythema, reducing itching and hair loss, and increasing hair thickness. In addition, it was confirmed that the scalp self-diagnosis of the subjects showed improvement effects on scalp satisfaction, scalp vitality and elasticity, heat generation, scalp pulling after cleaning, and itching. Through these research results, it is believed that products containing L-Menthol, Salicylic acid, and Dexpanthenol will help improve problematic scalp and hair.

Full-thickness scalp burns secondary to hair coloring are rare; however, such defects can be large and complex reconstruction of hair-bearing tissue may be necessary. Many skin-stretching devices that use gradual traction have been applied to take advantage of the viscoelastic properties of the skin. A 21-year-old female patient was seen with a burn defect on her occipital scalp leading to exposed subcutaneous tissue after chemical application of hair coloring in a salon. The dimensions of the wound were $10cm{\times}5cm$, and a skin graft or flap would have been necessary to close the defect. Two long transfixing K-wires (1.4 mm) and paired 3-wire threads (23 gauge), which are readily available in most hospitals, were applied over a period of 12 days for trichophytic closure of the defect. The remaining scalp scars after primary trichophytic closure with this skin-stretching method were refined with hair follicle transplantation. This skin-stretching method is simple to apply and valuable for helping to close problematic areas of skin shortage that would otherwise require more complicated procedures. This case shows a relatively unknown complication of hair coloring and its treatment.
