Question 2

Who is a HEAD SPA good for?

Accepted Answer

A HEAD SPA is beneficial for ANYONE looking to support a healthy scalp and enhance their overall hair wellness.

It's especially helpful for those with scalp concerns like dryness, dandruff, or irritation, as well as for individuals experiencing stress or tension that can impact scalp health.

Curly-haired clients benefit from the extra hydration and care tailored to their hair structure, while those with oily scalps or product buildup find relief through deep cleansing.

A HEAD SPA is also ideal for anyone seeking a relaxing, therapeutic experience that not only revitalizes the scalp but promotes a balanced, nourished foundation for healthy hair growth.

Question 3

How should I prepare for my HEAD SPA Experience ?

Accepted Answer

To ensure you have the most relaxing and beneficial HEAD SPA experience, here are some tips to prepare for your appointment:

1. Avoid Washing Your Hair: Please DO NOT wash your hair for at least 48 hours before your appointment. This allows natural oils to build up, which enhances the treatment.

2. Detangle Your Hair: If possible, please have your hair detangled prior to your appointment to allow for a smoother experience.

3. Wear Minimal Jewelry: Remove any jewelry upon arrival to avoid discomfort during the treatment.

4. Fragrance-Free: Please AVOID wearing any perfume or synthetic fragrances, as Gabrielle is sensitive to them and they can trigger migraines. Essential oil blends are fine.

5. Health Check: If you’re feeling unwell or experiencing any cold-like symptoms, please cancel your appointment to ensure you’re comfortable and fully present during the experience.

6. Dress Comfortably: A spa robe will be provided, so you don’t need to worry about your clothes getting wet.

Following these steps will help you get the most out of your HEAD SPA experience, allowing you to fully relax, feel cared for, and enjoy every moment. Gabrielle looks forward to creating a nurturing and rejuvenating experience for you.

Question 4

Should I wash my hair before my HEAD SPA Experience?

Accepted Answer

For the best results, avoid washing your hair 48 hours before your HEAD SPA. This allows your scalp’s natural oils to build up, creating a protective layer that enhances the treatment by shielding your scalp from sensitivities and providing Gabrielle with a clearer picture of your scalp’s natural state.

Washing right before can strip away these oils, reducing the effectiveness of the HEAD SPA. Starting with this natural layer helps the treatment work more deeply, allowing for thorough cleansing, nourishment, and hydration, ensuring you receive the full benefits of a HEAD SPA experience.

Question 5

I have a scalp condition, is that okay?

Accepted Answer

It’s absolutely okay to receive a HEAD SPA even if you have a previous scalp condition. In fact, a HEAD SPA can be incredibly beneficial for supporting scalp health. The gentle cleansing, nourishing oils, and targeted massage used during the session can help alleviate discomfort, improve circulation, and support the natural healing process.

Gabrielle’s treatments are designed to be soothing and adaptable to individual needs, ensuring that your scalp is nurtured without causing irritation. With the right techniques and products, a HEAD SPA can be a calming and therapeutic experience, even for those with sensitive scalps.

Scalp conditions could include: Dandruff, Dry Scalp, Seborrheic Dermatitis, Psoriasis, Folliculitis, Scalp Acne, Alopecia.

Gabrielle DOES NOT service guests with LICE or RING WORM. Those conditions will need a deeper layer of care.

Question 6

Can I receive a HEAD SPA if I have extensions?

Accepted Answer

Gabrielle no longer services extensions. Wearing extensions during a HEAD SPA isn’t ideal, as it can affect both the extensions and your natural hair.

Gabrielle's treatments involve herbal clays, deep cleansing, nourishing oils, and relaxing scalp massages. These treatments can weaken the bonds or tapes holding extensions in place, causing them to slip or detach.

The steam and heat that enhance the experience can also soften the adhesive, and styling afterward may lead to tangling or matting. For the best, long-lasting results, it's recommended to enjoy your HEAD SPA without extensions or between installs!

Question 7

I have curly hair, can I receive a HEAD SPA?

Accepted Answer

YES! A HEAD SPA can be incredibly beneficial for those with curly hair, as it provides the deep hydration and gentle cleansing that curls often need. Curly hair tends to be naturally drier because the oils from the scalp have a harder time traveling down the spiral structure of each strand.

Gabrielle’s HEAD SPA treatments focus on nourishing the scalp and promoting healthy hair growth while using gentle techniques that respect the unique structure of curls. This helps enhance curl definition, reduce frizz, and maintain moisture balance, leaving curls looking vibrant, healthy, and well-cared for.

Question 8

I am bald, can I receive a HEAD SPA?

Accepted Answer

YES! A HEAD SPA experience can be highly beneficial for someone who is bald, as it focuses on scalp health, relaxation, and overall wellness. Without hair, the scalp is more exposed to environmental factors like sun, pollution, and dryness, making it essential to maintain its health and hydration.

Gabrielle’s HEAD SPA treatments deeply cleanse, nourish, and moisturize the scalp, helping to soothe any irritation or dryness while promoting circulation, which supports overall skin vitality.

Additionally, the calming massage and aromatherapy can provide a deeply relaxing experience, reducing stress and leaving the scalp feeling refreshed and revitalized. It’s a luxurious way to care for your scalp and enjoy a therapeutic experience tailored just for you.

Question 9

I am going through chemotherapy, can I receive a HEAD SPA?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! For someone going through chemotherapy, a HEAD SPA experience with Gabrielle can be an incredibly nurturing and gentle way to support both scalp health and emotional well-being.

Chemotherapy can lead to scalp sensitivity, dryness, irritation, and hair loss, making it essential to use treatments that are soothing, hydrating, and non-invasive.

Gabrielle is highly intentional about creating a safe and comforting space, where you can fully relax and feel cared for. Throughout the HEAD SPA, she checks in with you at each step, ensuring that every part of the experience feels gentle and brings no discomfort. Her focus is on supporting your body and spirit, offering calming massage techniques that promote relaxation, reduce stress, and provide a moment of peace.

This experience can be especially meaningful during treatment, as Gabrielle’s care and attention help you feel deeply held, supported, and restored.

Question 10

What should I wear for my HEAD SPA?

Accepted Answer

Its best to wear something comfortable and easy to change out of, as a spa robe will be provided for your experience. Opt for clothing that allows you to fully relax and enjoy the treatment without worry.

Since your hair and scalp will be the focus, keep any jewelry and accessories minimal so you can remove them easily upon arrival.

Gabrielle will ensure your comfort throughout the session, so you can simply come prepared to unwind and feel nurtured.

PLEASE AVOID WEARING PARFUME/ FRAGRANCE as Gabrielle is migraine prone.

Question 11

Can multiple people get serviced at once?

Accepted Answer

Not at this time. Gabrielle offers a tailored HEAD SPA experience, serving one guest at a time within her intimate, one-on-one studio environment.

This dedicated approach allows her to provide an elevated level of care, nurturing you fully without distraction. While Gabrielle envisions expanding in the future, her current focus is on crafting a luxurious, personalized experience for each guest.

If you’d like to book a series of HEAD SPA experiences for yourself and loved ones, each appointment will be scheduled sequentially, ensuring that each person receives the same undivided attention and tranquility.
