The Head Spa Guide

Before & After Your Crown Ritual

Welcome to your Head Spa experience at Glow Boulevard Self Care Studio.

Our Head Spa is designed to care for your scalp first, the foundation of healthy hair. Whether you’re wearing your curls out, a silk press, protective style, or anything in between, this guide will help you get the most from your appointment.

Before Your Appointment

Arrive with your hair down.

Please remove ponytails, clips, headbands, scarves, and hats before your appointment whenever possible.

Light detangling is appreciated.

You don’t need perfectly detangled hair, but removing large knots beforehand allows us to focus on your scalp rather than working through excessive tangles.

Avoid heavy products.

For the best cleanse, try to avoid applying heavy oils, butters, waxes, edge control, or excessive dry shampoo the day of your appointment.

Protective styles

Unfortunately, we cannot perform Head Spa services over braids, twists, locs, sew-ins, or wigs. Hair should be loose and accessible so we can properly cleanse and treat your scalp.

Come ready to relax.

This is your time to slow down. We’ll take care of the rest.

After Your Appointment

Your scalp will be deeply cleansed, hydrated, and refreshed. Hair will be damp at the end of your service, but we do not provide blow drying or styling.

Many of our natural-haired clients enjoy embracing low-manipulation styles after their appointment to preserve moisture while allowing their scalp to breathe.

Some beautiful options include:

• Four large flat twists or chunky twists
• Two-strand twists
• A sleek low bun
• Loose braid(s)
• Bantu knots
• Wash-and-go curls
• Puff or pineapple
• Satin-lined beanie or scarf for cooler weather

If you’re planning to wear your hair straight, we recommend scheduling a blowout or silk press after your Head Spa for the healthiest results.

Protect Your Results

To help extend the benefits of your Head Spa:

• Sleep with a satin bonnet or silk pillowcase.
• Avoid scratching your scalp.
• Give your scalp a day or two before applying heavy oils or styling products.
• Stay hydrated and continue a consistent scalp care routine between appointments.

Need Styling After Your Appointment?

If you’d like your hair professionally blow dried or styled after your Head Spa, we’re happy to recommend trusted natural hair stylists within our studio community based on availability.

Our goal is for you to leave feeling refreshed, cared for, and confident from scalp to strands.

We can’t wait to care for your crown.
