How it works

Three steps to clarity

01

Complete the confidential questionnaire

The confidential Hair & Scalp Questionnaire comes first, before booking. It gives me your history, lifestyle and concerns, so your appointment is focused from the moment you arrive.

02

Book and come in for your consultation

Your 45-minute Restoring Roots Consultation includes a thorough health and hair history review and advanced scalp imaging with the Becon AI Scanner.

03

Receive your personalized recommendations

Within a week of your consultation, you receive your personalized protocol: in-salon treatments, home care and lifestyle support, with a referral for medical evaluation when your history calls for one.

"I received the Luxe scalp facial service. The amount of treatment that is included in this service is unmatched. It was informative, beyond relaxing, peaceful and beautiful. Finished off with an extremely generous goody bag, I would recommend this service to anyone and everyone."
