During your head spa

What happens during a head spa?

Do you wash and blow-dry my hair?

Yes, in four of GK Hair Haven's five head spas. The Signature, Luxury, Classic and Chinese Herbal head spas include a deep cleanse and finish with a Dyson blow-dry. The Stress Relief Head Spa is a head and scalp massage with no wash or blow-dry.

Will I fall asleep during a head spa?

Many GK Hair Haven guests say they nearly do. The room is quiet, the pace is unhurried and every head spa includes a warm eye mask and a slow head and scalp massage, so drifting off is common and completely fine.

What is head hydrotherapy?

Head hydrotherapy is the water-therapy step of the Signature and Classic head spas at GK Hair Haven: water runs over and through your hair and scalp at the basin while your specialist works. The Luxury and Chinese Herbal head spas use warm herbal steam instead.

Can I ask for lighter or firmer pressure?

Yes. Tell your GK Hair Haven specialist at any point and the pressure changes straight away. A head and scalp massage should feel relaxing, never painful.

What is the hot compress eye mask?

A warm compress rested over your eyes during the head spa. Every head spa on the GK Hair Haven menu includes one, and it makes it easier to settle into the quiet of the room.

Scalp & hair

What if I have a scalp or hair concern?

What is a scalp analysis?

A close-up camera look at your scalp before your treatment begins. Your GK Hair Haven specialist explains what they see, such as oil, flakes or product buildup, and uses it to choose the cleanse, products and finish. It is included in the Signature, Luxury, Classic and Chinese Herbal head spas.

Is a scalp analysis a medical diagnosis?

No. The scalp analysis at GK Hair Haven is a cosmetic look at the scalp to choose products and steps. It does not diagnose any condition. If you are worried about hair loss, a rash or persistent flaking, a board-certified dermatologist can examine your scalp.

Which treatment should I book for an oily or flaky scalp?

For oily roots and product buildup, book GK Hair Haven's Purifying Oily Scalp Detox (90 minutes, $150). For visible flakes and an itchy-feeling scalp, book the Dandruff Relief Scalp Therapy (90 minutes, $150). For a scalp that feels dry or easily irritated, the Chinese Herbal Head Spa (120 minutes, $190) is the gentler choice. Compare the scalp treatments

Do your scalp treatments regrow hair?

No. GK Hair Haven's scalp treatments are cosmetic care that cleanses, soothes and nourishes the scalp; they do not treat hair loss or regrow hair. The Hair Loss Strengthening Therapy is a relaxing, nourishing ritual for thinning-looking hair, and a board-certified dermatologist is the right person to find the cause of hair loss. Scalp care for thinning hair

Can I book a head spa if my scalp is sensitive?

Yes, and tell GK Hair Haven before your treatment begins. The Chinese Herbal Head Spa is a gentle choice for scalps that feel dry, tight or easily irritated. If your scalp is red, inflamed, broken or painful, please see a dermatologist first.

Scalp health

Which scalp signs need a dermatologist before a head spa?

See a board-certified dermatologist before booking a head spa or scalp treatment at GK Hair Haven if you notice any of these signs:

  • Sudden, patchy or rapid hair loss
  • Hair loss with itching, burning, pain or tenderness
  • Red, scaly or oozing patches on the scalp
  • Flaking that does not improve with a dandruff shampoo
  • Scaling beyond the scalp, such as the eyebrows, ears or sides of the nose
  • Hair loss together with tiredness, feeling cold or a change in weight

What a head spa is, and is not

GK Hair Haven's services are cosmetic and do not diagnose or treat any condition. The team is happy to work alongside the care a dermatologist recommends, so share any advice you were given before your treatment begins.

GK Hair Haven provides cosmetic head spa, scalp-care and facial services for relaxation and for the look and feel of your hair, scalp and skin. Our services are not medical treatments and do not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, including hair loss, dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis. If you have sudden or patchy hair loss, or a scalp that is painful, red, bleeding or not improving, please see a board-certified dermatologist.

Is the Non-Surgical Facelift Facial a medical procedure?

No. GK Hair Haven's Rejuvenating Non-Surgical Facelift Facial is a facial: a lifting-style massage and treatment sequence for the face and neck. It is not a medical or surgical procedure, and its results are temporary and vary.

Who should check with us before a gua sha facial?

Tell GK Hair Haven before booking a Gua Sha Facial if you take blood thinners, are pregnant, or have an active skin condition or irritated skin. Gua sha should not be performed over irritated or inflamed skin.
