How we approach scalp hydration in the chair
What we check first: your scalp condition and sensitivity on the day.
What we intentionally avoid: harsh scrubbing, over-layering, or rushing.
What you should feel by the end: a calm, balanced scalp that feels lighter and more comfortable.
Scalp hydration is about moisture balance at the scalp, not oily heaviness. We support comfort without creating buildup.
- Confirm dryness versus buildup. We check whether tightness is from dryness, product layering, or both.
- Gentle cleanse first. We cleanse lightly so hydration products can work on a clean scalp.
- Targeted hydration placement. Hydration support is placed at the scalp and hairline areas that feel tight or dry.
- Calm, low manipulation handling. We keep friction low so the scalp feels better, not more sensitive.
- Rinse and finish balanced. We rinse thoroughly and finish with light products that do not clog the scalp.
- Protect the result. If you add stretching, we use heat protection and controlled tension to keep comfort in mind.
