Frequently Asked Questions

General FAQs

What exactly is a head spa, and how is it different from a regular hair treatment?
A head spa is like a “facial for your scalp.” It’s not just about cleaning your hair; it’s a full-on experience that deeply detoxes your scalp, relieves tension, and leaves you feeling amazing from head to toe. Think of it as a mini-escape that focuses on scalp health and relaxation!
What are the real benefits of a head spa?
Besides leaving your scalp feeling refreshed and balanced, head spa treatments help with dryness, excess oil, and dandruff. Plus, the gentle massages can ease tension and stress—you’ll walk out feeling totally rejuvenated, and your hair will look healthier too!
Who should get a head spa treatment?
Honestly, anyone who wants to feel good! It’s perfect if you’re dealing with scalp issues like itchiness or buildup, or if you just want a moment to unwind. If you’ve got a busy lifestyle and crave a reset, a head spa is ideal.
How often should I get a head spa treatment?
Most people find that once a month keeps their scalp happy and healthy, but if you’re working on specific scalp issues, you might come in more often at first.
Can head spa treatments help with hair growth?

Yes! A healthy scalp can promote better hair growth. By clearing buildup, stimulating circulation, and nourishing the scalp, head spa treatments create an ideal environment for hair to grow stronger and healthier.

Is a head spa safe if I have sensitive skin?
Our treatments are designed to be gentle and can be customized based on your needs. Just let your therapist know if you have any sensitivities, and they’ll make sure everything is comfortable for you.
Can I get a head spa treatment with extensions?
We skip head spa treatments on clients with extensions to keep them secure, but it’s the perfect way to give your scalp some love in between appointments! A great reset before your next set of extensions.
Is this your permanent location?
This is our cozy, temporary spot while we work on building a larger spa to better serve you! We’re excited to create an even more spacious and relaxing environment for our head spa experience. Thanks for joining us on this journey—big things are coming!
Can you do two head spa treatments on two people at the same time?
Right now, we have one cozy, private room for treatments, so we’re one-on-one only. But stay tuned—we’re working on expanding to offer more availability for multiple guests!
Can I get a head spa if my hair is color-treated?
Absolutely! Our head spa treatments are gentle and safe for color-treated hair. We’ll make sure your scalp and hair get the nourishment they need without affecting your color.

Service Related FAQs

What should I expect during my appointment?
Get ready to relax! Depending on your treatment of choice, you’ll either start with a scalp analysis to see what your hair and scalp need or a consultation. Then comes the cleansing, exfoliation, steam treatment, and a dreamy scalp and face massage paired with your custom hair masks. You’ll feel like you’ve pressed “reset” on your stress levels by the end.
What should I do before and after my head spa treatment?
Before your appointment, just come as you are—no prep needed. Afterward, avoid washing your hair for at least 24 hours so all those nourishing ingredients have time to soak in and do their magic.
What’s the difference between the Express and Signature Head Spa treatments?
Express: A refreshing treatment with a deep cleanse, scalp mask, and relaxing face and scalp massages, ending with a conditioning rinse and towel dry. Perfect for a quick rejuvenation! Takes about an hour. 
Signature: Adds a detailed scalp analysis, extended massage time, gentle blow dry, and styling for a complete pampering experience. Great for deeper relaxation and a custom touch! Takes about 90 minutes.
Where should I park?
Feel free to park anywhere in the surrounding lot of Salon Lofts. There’s usually plenty of space close. There’s also an overflow lot just South of the building. 
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Life happens, we get it! Just let us know at least 48 hours before your appointment, and we’ll happily reschedule or fill the spot. If you cancel within 24 hours, there’s a 50% cancellation fee. For no-shows, we charge a 100% service fee. Thank you for helping us keep things running smoothly!
What should I do when I arrive?

Feel free to relax in your car and enjoy our meditation track to get in the right headspace. Once you’re ready, you can wait in the lobby, and I’ll come out to greet you. To keep the spa calm for everyone, please don’t knock or open the door while a session is in progress.

Will I leave with wet hair?
For the Express treatment, yes, you’ll leave with towel-dried hair. We like to focus our time on the massage and scalp treatments to give you the most relaxing, beneficial experience possible.
With the Signature treatment, we’ll give you a light blow-dry (not a full style), but again, most of our time is spent on the treatments and massage to make sure your scalp and hair get the full benefit.
Should I wash my hair before the treatment?
No need! In fact, we recommend waiting 48 hours after washing to get the most out of your head spa experience.
