Head Start
Beautiful hair begins with a healthy scalp–and our
roundup of in-salon treatments and remedies will help
your clients get both–while combating thinning hair.
American Crew Hair Recovery In-Salon Service Beauty pros will have the
opportunity to increase their salon profits by 14 percent in just three to five minutes with
American Crew’s Hair Recovery In-Salon Service. After conducting a consultation and
discussing any hair and scalp issues, the stylist shampoos the client’s hair with Hair
Recovery Shampoo, which energizes the scalp to prepare for maximum absorption of the
Hair Recovery Concentrate. Once the hair is towel-dried, a Hair Recovery Ampoule, which
has formula containing ingredients like hops, rosemary and swertia japonica, is massaged
into the scalp using American Crew’s special Hair Revitalizing technique. The result is a
fuller, thicker and stronger head of hair.
Aveda Botanical Hair & Scalp Therapy Aveda’s in-salon Botanical Hair & Scalp
Therapy features a scalp analysis and consultation, followed by a customized stress-relieving scalp massage using one of three Scalp Remedy Balancing Concentrates with
lavender, ylang ylang, orange and vetiver to melt away tension and a Damage Remedy
Strength Infusion or Damage Remedy Moisture Immersion that balances hair with added
strength or moisture. “The combination of aroma, breath and touch helps facilitate recovery
from stress,” explains Marc Zollicoffer, massage therapist and Aveda global educator.
“Aveda’s Balancing Touch Massage focuses on pressure points to stimulate circulation and
bring needed nourishment for a healthy scalp.”
Moroccanoil Balancing Scalp Treatment In
addition to balancing any scalp issues, this invigorating
service helps increase circulation. The stylist begins by
applying one to two drops of Moroccanoil Dry-No-More
Professional Scalp Treatment—infused with essential
oils, including lavender and geranium—onto five sections
to the client’s head. Next, a 10-minute therapeutic scalp
massage to increase blood flow is performed while the
client relaxes. After five minutes have passed, the hair is
cleansed and then conditioned with Moroccanoil Moisture
Repair Shampoo and Conditioner.
Redken Intra Force Scalp Stimulate Service
Redken’s new Intra Force Scalp Stimulate in-salon service
provides hope to the follicularly challenged. The treatment
harnesses detoxifying Zinc PCA to reduce excess sebum and DHT and nourishing vitamin
E and arginine, a scalp-stimulating essential amino acid, to jumpstart clients’ thinning
hair treatment programs. Scalp Stimulate Microdermabrasion Treatment, which cleanses
and encourages cellular turnover for improved hair density, is applied to the dry scalp in
diagonal lines an inch apart. A three-minute scalp massage ensues, after which the client’s
hair is processed for 10 minutes sans heat before another gentle massage and rinsing.
Next, hair is cleansed with Intra Force Shampoo before Toner is applied to nourish,
detangle and strengthen locks. For the final step, Intra Force Scalp Treatment is sprayed
directly onto the scalp and massaged in to stimulate microcirculation before Hair Densifier
bodifying foam is worked into the hair to provide lasting volume and shape without
buildup. redken.com; intraforce.com ✂ —K.D.
