At STRAAND, we’re self-confessed scalp nerds. We’re passionate about the science behind the scalp and how it can be the difference between luscious and lacklustre hair. 

We're proud to partner with one of Australia's top trichologists, Chelcey Sallinger, who is equally obsessed with helping people achieve their best hair by tackling their scalp health head-on.

Trichology is the specialty dealing with problems of the hair and scalp; hair loss, baldness, alopecia, scaling, itching, hair breakage, hair damage, and dryness or oiliness of the hair or scalp. Trichology covers the medical and nutritional areas that relate to hair and scalp problems.

Essentially, a Trichologist is to hair and scalps like a Dermatologist is to skin.

Chelcey Salinger IAT is a consultant trichologist at the Australian Trichology Centre, Sydney and Adelaide, where she specialises in hair loss, baldness, alopecia areata, hair breakage, hair damage, psoriasis and other scalp problems in women and men.

Separate from her private practice, Chelcey is the executive director of the International Association of Trichologists (USA). 

She is also involved in the education of Trichologists, tutoring students all over the world and supervising the clinical training of students in Australia and lecturing at Trichology Conferences in Brazil, Canada, Iceland and England.

Chelcey’s professional opinion and insights on hair and hair loss are regularly sought by magazines and media and as an expert witness in legal cases involving hair loss or breakage.

TLDR? We are thrilled to have Chelcey on the team helping us repair, rebalance, and protect crowns around the globe.
