Should I wash my hair before spa day?
We recommend arriving with hair that hasn’t been washed for at least two days. This helps us get a clearer look at your natural scalp condition, so we can tailor the treatment to your specific needs. Plus, the oils produced by your scalp during this time are beneficial for a thorough analysis. Typically, it’s recommended to wait at least 24 to 48 hours before washing your hair. This waiting period allows the nourishing oils and conditioning agents used during the spa treatment to fully penetrate the hair shaft and scalp, providing deep hydration and strengthening the hair.Post hair spa, ensure that the first wash happens after 72 hours, do not use heat on the hair.

How to wear your hair for a spa day? If you have long hair, it’s best to wear it in a simple and practical style. From a loose bun to a high ponytail, it is best to choose a style that keeps your hair away from your face and neck. We should avoid using tools that produce a lot of heat like straighteners, curlers, hair dryers, etc. We should not tie our hair too tight after the hair spa treatment. UV rays are also harmful to our hair, especially after a hair treatment. So we should cover our hair using a scarf or a hat.
