This service combines multiple massage techniques, Tea Tree products, and the added benefit of a steam treatment for a spa-like experience.
Instructions:STEP 1At the Style Station, analyze the scalp and determine which Tea Tree Scalp Wellness Serum suits your guest’s scalp type.
Questions to Consider During Scalp Analysis:
- Does their scalp look dry? Oily? Irritated?
- Has the guest voiced any scalp or hair concerns?
- If there aren’t any apparent scalp challenges, are they in need of added scalp protection?
STEP 2Drape the guest. Use a scalp brush to brush the scalp in various directions. Perform a dry massage using either Lavender Mint Nourishing Oil or Tea Tree Hemp Replenishing Hair & Body Oil. Guide your guest through three deep breaths.
STEP 3At the Wash House, set a warm scene by turning on a steamer if you have one. Drape bowl with a warm, dry towel and assist your guest in lying back, then open a disposable eye mask to activate heat or prepare a warm towel. Cover the guest with a clean, warm blanket, then massage using the Eyebrow Squeeze Technique (refer to instructions).
STEP 4Apply the warmed eye mask or towel, then apply hot water to the hair and scalp. Cleanse with the Tea Tree Shampoo of your choice and scrub hair and scalp clean in sections, then scrub with a silicone brush if needed.
Rinse.STEP 5Exfoliate the scalp with Tea Tree Special Detox Foaming Salt Scrub, then rinse. Apply Tea Tree Special Detox Kombucha Rinse, focusing on both the scalp and hair. Massage using the Pressure Point Technique (refer to instructions). For an added indulgence, rinse the scalp and hair using a gentle pour-over technique.
STEP 6Treat with Lavender Mint Deep Conditioning Mineral Hair Mask or Tea Tree Hair and Scalp Treatment. Apply using a feather-tip color brush and massage in using the Pressure Point and Three-Point Temple Technique. Comb the treatment through and put hair in a chopstick to prepare for a neck and shoulder massage.
STEP 7Add a new hot, dry towel under the neck for added comfort. Wrap hair in a turban, finish with a squeeze and allow guest to relax while treatment sits for 10-15 minutes.
Note: This is a great time to set your station with the tools and products you’ll need to finish your guest’s service.
STEP 8Once finished, return to the guest and begin again with
a hand and arm massage using Lavender Mint Nourishing Oil or Tea Tree Hemp Replenishing Hair & Body Oil.
STEP 9Remove the towel turban and continue with a dry massage using the Eyebrow Squeeze Technique (refer to instructions).
