Located in the heart of Orchard Road, the shop is where father and son can enjoy bonding time and a haircut while mother and daughter go shopping.   

At Papa Poika, Fathers can get their traditional haircuts while sons can get their contemporary and trendy haircuts. On top of these services, fathers can enjoy relaxing shaving sessions.

Introducing Follicle, Singapore’s 1st total solution hair centre.

Hair loss can be due to many reasons, such as stress, lifestyle and genetics. Follicle uses a scientific approach to combat hair problems, using proven diagnosis techniques, doctor-developed treatments and long-term management as the keys to sustainable hair health.

Follicle is a principled company that selects the best ingredients and know-how to help clients have both beautiful and healthy hair. They go beyond just using organic and hypo-allergenic products, as that alone will not fix scalp disease.

Instead, we reply on medical research and co-curation with Korean trichologists to develop a new combination of treatments to help troubled scalps and hairloss patients.

Visit them for a 1st-of-its-kind hair care experience.
