LED, laser, EMS and scalp massage come together in this easy 10-minute hair care routine
I’m always interested in beauty gadgets that promise to fit into my routine without making it feel like I’ve added another job to my day, so I was intrigued to try the SENSSE Aura Pro LED Hair Care Device with EMS £159.99.
I’ve spent more than 15 years working with hair, so I’m naturally interested in scalp care and anything that encourages me to pay more attention to the area that can so easily be forgotten. We spend so much time choosing shampoos, conditioners, masks and styling products, but scalp care often gets much less attention.
The SENSSE Aura Pro combines LED light therapy, low-level laser therapy (LLLT), EMS and scalp massage in one handheld device. It has 15 laser pieces alongside 30 red and blue LEDs, with different settings designed around hair loss, oil control and general scalp care. I’ve only used it a few times and the thing that has impressed me most is just how easy it is.
What I liked about the SENSSE Aura Pro
I don’t have much patience for beauty gadgets that require a complicated routine. If something takes ages to set up, has endless buttons or needs me to find a very specific time in my day to use it, there’s a good chance I’ll stop using it. The SENSSE Aura Pro has been the complete opposite.
It has a built-in 10-minute timer, which is probably one of my favourite features. I simply start my session and let the device do its thing without constantly checking how long I’ve been using it.
That might sound like a small detail, but for me it makes a big difference. Ten minutes a few times a week feels manageable, whereas a much longer treatment would probably be something I kept meaning to do and then forgot about. It’s also surprisingly lightweight.
There are three main modes to choose from. Hair Loss mode combines red LED light and laser, Oil Control uses blue LED light, while Scalp Care combines red and blue LED light.
The device also includes EMS and three vibration intensities, which gives it a gentle scalp massage element while I’m using it. I also like the built-in 10ml hair oil dispenser. It allows you to use a favourite serum or hair oil alongside the device.
What I didn’t like about the SENSSE Aura Pro
I’ll be honest I’ve I’ve only used the SENSSE Aura Pro a few times and I know dramatic changes do not happen overnight. This is one of those beauty gadgets where consistency is going to be important. I’m planning to keep using it regularly over the next few months before deciding whether I can see a noticeable difference.
Overall verdict
It’s still too early for me to say whether the SENSSE Aura Pro has made a visible difference to my hair, and I think it’s important to say that rather than pretending otherwise. What I can say is that I’ve actually enjoyed using it and, more importantly, I’ve found it easy to stick to.
I’m firmly in the ‘watch this space’ camp when it comes to results. I’ll be continuing to use it consistently and seeing what happens over the coming months. But if, like me, you’re looking for a scalp-care gadget that takes just 10 minutes and is simple enough to actually fit into your routine, the SENSSE Aura Pro has certainly made a good first impression. I’m sure it will at the top of everyone’s Christmas list this year.
