A short consultation with a 200x microscope look at your scalp, then the ritual: warm herbal pours, deep cleansing, acupoint massage, steam, and a soft blow-dry. You finish with warm tea and an after view of your scalp. Plan for 60 or 90 unhurried minutes.
It's a five-step ritual: a consultation with a 200x microscope look at your scalp, the first pour of warm herbal decoction, a deep cleanse, acupoint massage and steam, then rest, tea, and a soft finish.
The 60-minute Signature covers analysis, three herbal treatments, deep cleanse, and blow-dry. The 90-minute Classic adds shoulder-and-neck acupoint massage, a steam eye mask, a hair mask, and device-assisted therapy.
No, every treatment ends with a gentle blow-dry. Styling isn't included, so come as you are.
Yes. Tell your therapist during the consultation and the herbal blend and products are adjusted to be gentle on color. One note: we can't work over taped-in hair extensions — mention any extensions when you book.
