What to Do After a Japanese Head Spa Treatment
Your Japanese Head Spa treatment has just ended and you feel lighter, clearer, and deeply relaxed. But what comes next? At Hair Spa Melbourne, we believe that what you do after your treatment is just as important as the experience itself. To help you get the most from your visit, here’s a complete guide to post-treatment care and how to maintain that head-to-toe glow.
Why Post-Treatment Care Matters
During your Head Spa session, your scalp has been deep cleansed, detoxed, steamed, massaged, and nourished with serums and masks. Your follicles are stimulated, your skin is hydrated, and your nervous system has been reset. It’s the perfect time to give your body a gentle window to integrate those changes and maintain results.
1. Don’t Wash Your Hair Right Away
Leave the treatment on your scalp for at least 24–48 hours. The serums and actives applied during the session continue to work post-treatment. Washing too soon can disrupt absorption and remove beneficial ingredients.
2. Avoid Harsh Styling Products
Let your scalp breathe. Avoid gels, hairsprays, and dry shampoos for the first few days. Opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic products if needed, or go product-free to allow your scalp to rebalance naturally.
3. Protect Your Scalp from the Sun
Your scalp has just been exfoliated and detoxed, it may be more sensitive than usual. If you’re heading outdoors, wear a hat or use a UV-protectant spray to shield it from sun damage.
4. Drink Plenty of Water
Hydration supports detox and healing at a cellular level. Drinking water post-treatment will amplify the effects of the massage and serum application, helping flush toxins and improve circulation.
5. Use Recommended Homecare Products
We often recommend tailored GORJES ME products after your treatment. These may include: - Scalp hydration serums - Lightweight botanical shampoos - Detox sprays or exfoliants
Using these at home helps extend the effects of your session.
6. Book Your Next Session
Scalp therapy is most effective when done regularly. We suggest: - Every 4–6 weeks for maintenance - Every 2–3 weeks for oily or problematic scalps - Weekly for hair loss or scalp conditions
Booking your next session ensures your scalp stays balanced and your hair continues to thrive.
Final Thoughts
A Japanese Head Spa is more than a one-off indulgence, it’s a commitment to better scalp health, nervous system regulation, and long-term beauty. Your aftercare is part of the ritual. Treat it with care and you’ll enjoy glowing, healthy hair that lasts.
