Hair vitamin care is a beauty service in which professional products enriched with vitamins and nourishing ingredients, chosen for your hair, are applied to the surface of your scalp and lengths and then worked in with a light massage. Brow vitamin care follows the same approach, with a product chosen for your brows. In both cases, the products are only used on the surface.
What is hair vitamin care?
Hair vitamin care is a calm beauty service for your hair and scalp. We look at your hair, choose a vitamin-enriched, nourishing product to suit it, apply it evenly to your scalp and lengths, and work it through with a light massage that is part of the session. The aim is to help your hair look shinier, feel softer and appear more cared for.
It is designed for anyone who wants to look after their hair in a calm, unhurried setting. There is no rush: the time set aside is yours, and we explain each step before we begin. You can find all the details on our hair and brow vitamin page.
What is brow vitamin care?
Brow vitamin care means applying a nourishing product chosen for your brows to the brow hairs and the skin around them, then working it in with a light massage. It is only used on the surface, and we take particular care around the eye area.
We decide together how often it is worth repeating, based on your brows. You can find our other brow services on the lash lift and brow lamination page.
What happens during a hair vitamin session?
Every session is planned around your hair and scalp. It usually follows these steps:
- A short chat: we talk about your hair’s history, the products you use and what you would like from the session, and note any recent colour or other services.
- Cleansing: your hair and scalp are gently washed so the products can spread evenly.
- Choosing the product: we select a vitamin-enriched, nourishing product to match what your hair needs.
- Application: your hair is divided into sections and the product is applied evenly to the scalp and lengths.
- Scalp massage: a light massage helps the product spread and is often the most relaxing moment of the visit.
- Resting time: the product is left on for a while, with gentle warmth or steam if needed.
- Rinse and style: your hair is rinsed, dried and styled the way you like.
We plan and carry out each session to a personalised protocol, so how long it takes and how often you come back may differ for you. Timing depends on the product chosen and the length and thickness of your hair, and we will give you an approximate time when you book. You sit in a comfortable chair throughout, free to rest or ask any questions that come to mind.
Who is hair vitamin care for?
It is often chosen by:
- Anyone whose hair looks dry, dull or prone to breakage
- Those who would like extra care after colouring, lightening or straightening
- Regular users of hairdryers, curling tongs and straighteners
- Anyone who wants to look after their scalp as well as their hair
- Anyone looking for a quiet break in a busy week
We decide which product is right for you by looking at your hair together at the start of the session. With regular sessions, the aim is for your hair to look shinier, softer and more cared for. How your hair responds varies from person to person, and we talk through what you can expect at your first visit.
How should you prepare, and what should you do afterwards?
No special preparation is needed, because your hair is washed at the start of the session. If you have recently had your hair coloured, lightened, permed or straightened, let us know when you book so we can time the session accordingly. Telling us at the start how you would like your hair styled makes planning easier, especially for long hair.
You leave the salon with your hair styled and can carry on with your day straight away. When to wash your hair for the first time may depend on the product used; if we have a suggestion, we will tell you at the end of the session. Washing with lukewarm water and a gentle shampoo afterwards helps your hair keep that cared-for feel.
The care you give your hair at home is an important part of the picture too. Our post on how to combine salon care and home care may give you some ideas.
Who should check with us first?
If any of the following applies to you, please message us before booking. We will look at it together and, if needed, choose a gentler product or suggest waiting:
- Open cuts, redness, flaking or irritation on the scalp
- An ongoing scalp condition
- A known sensitivity to certain products or fragrances
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Any other recent service on your scalp
If you have an ongoing concern about your scalp, we recommend speaking to your doctor first; what we offer at our salon is beauty care and is not a substitute for a doctor’s advice. Your session is carried out by our expert team of qualified practitioners, who explain each step and look after your comfort throughout.
Frequently asked questions
Can it be done on coloured or chemically processed hair?
Usually, yes. If you have recently had your hair coloured, lightened or straightened, it helps to plan the timing together. Just let us know about any recent services when you book.
How often should I have hair vitamin care?
It varies from person to person. The condition of your hair, the products you use and what you would like from the session all play a part; after your first session, we will plan a routine that suits you together.
Is brow vitamin the same as brow lamination?
No. In brow vitamin care, a nourishing product is applied to the surface of the brow hairs and worked in with a light massage; brow lamination is a separate service. If you are curious about lamination, our post on how long brow lamination lasts explains more.
Can I go straight back to my day afterwards?
Yes. At the end of the session your hair is dried and styled the way you like, so you leave the salon ready to go. If there is any advice about the first wash, we will tell you then.
