Everyone who knows me knows that Michelle is my hair stylist because every time she freshens up my color and/or cut, I get a million inquiries on who made my hair look so fabulous!!! So no surprise that Michelle is an absolute sorceress of all things hair color and maintenance.
Today, though, I experienced her new service for a scalp facial. Let me tell ya, this was one of the most relaxing and sensational couple of hours of my life! Plus, my scalp is feeling healthier than ever and my hair reflects the health with an extra shine and softness. So, what was so great about this scalp facial? This one starts with a nice brush of the roots, where Michelle spent lots of time really loosening things up. Then she mixed a special scalp mask that was perfect for the things I wanted to target with my scalp (like some extra moisture and removal of product buildup). That sat for a while doing it’s thing and then over to the sink I went. At the sink Michelle offered me a (disposable) eye mask, which I accepted. Definitely take the eye mask!!! While I lay comfortably in the relaxing darkness, Michelle worked in additional products to my roots, each one smelling more delicious than the next, and I entered into a complete in-body sensory experience. She brought in tuning forks to use at various points explaining what they helped with: grounding, circulation, calming. I felt my body fade into a complete space of calm. Rounding out the facial was a great hair wash (who doesn’t look having their hair washed?!) inclusive of a scalp massage. When I opened my eyes and took off the eye mask I felt like a new person. I was talking calmer, moving more gently, just overall operating on a different vibration. Michelle finished off the service with a blowout. My hair has never smelled so incredible!!!
I typically treat myself to a spa facial for my skin ~ 4x a year. Now that I’ve had a scalp facial, it’s going to be on a similar rotation!! One of the best services I’ve ever received and left me feeling like I just bought myself the absolute best self-care around. Thank you Michelle for helping me end my week and start my weekend in a calm space.
*Bonus* if you’re a music lover, Michelle’s playlist is always fire and matches whatever mood we’re playing with. Today’s mix was the perfect soundtrack for the restorative, gentle service I was receiving.
