Takara Belmont was the first hairdressing company in Japan to develop a professional ‘head spa’ service for the salon industry. Where they lead, means that salons can introduce an unrivalled sensory experience that actively relaxes and calms, while tangibly improving scalp health, and promoting healthy hair growth. There are many variations of this exclusive technique, but we endorse the Takara Belmont Original Japanese Head Spa as the way to ensure your salon can introduce the perfect treatment. By combining the Takara Belmont world-class equipment with bespoke head spa accessories and exclusively curated techniques, your business can expand a range of expertise and well-being treatments, create a unique point of difference, and boost service incomes.
Expert knowledge
Katie Fielder, Takara Belmont’s National Sales Manager tells us: “Clients are increasingly looking to their salon for new haircare experiences that enhance their sense of well-being, while actively improving the condition of their hair and scalp. The Japanese Head Spa chimes with this demand, and it presents a dramatic business boost for salons. As a Japanese brand with over a Century of heritage, Takara Belmont has a cultural affinity with well-being techniques created in the region, and our equipment is centred around giving salons and clients the finest head spa experience, which is now widely available in Japan and beyon
Equipment, technique and environment are the three key elements of a Japanese Head Spa.
A therapeutic technique, the Japanese head spa service offers clients supreme sensations of relaxation while delivering tangible, and scientifically proven, benefits for the hair and scalp.
To deliver what is essentially a spa-style service, thoughtful consideration to the setting will create a distinct ambience. “Head spa treatments could take place at the backwash but creating a separate zone or sectioned area within the salon for this, and other specialised services, will reflect the quality of this experience and increase its value both for the client, and in terms of pricing for the salon,” says Katie. “A customised approach will elevate the sense of luxury and exclusivity, while commanding a higher price point.”
Equipment is pivotal to head spa experiences and it’s here that Takara Belmont’s promise of the exceptional comes into its own. Specifically in support of head spa protocols, the spotlight falls upon their prestigious Yume Series in combination with the Spa Mist II processor, and a new Heath Bath accessory.
Yume Series
Yume series: Eru
Takara Belmont’s Yume series sets a new precedent in backwash innovation. Utilising leading-edge motorisation, thermostatic control, ergonomic design, and a unique neck rest design with a gel-filled neck cushion and two gel-filled head pillows, the Yume Series continues to set the benchmark for technicians and clients alike.
“The Yume, Yume DX, Yume Noble and Yume Espoir are compatible with our Head Bath accessory, which is key to delivering head spa treatments. As the epitome of world-class innovation, our Yume Series delivers complete comfort and full body support, even during longer services like a head spa.” says Katie.
The Spa Mist II creates atmospheric experiences at low temperatures to prevent hair damage. As another essential part of a head spa service, Spa Mist II not only enhances the atmosphere and ambience, it’s essential to scalp care and healthy hair growth. As a compact, highly functional and versatile processor, Spa Mist II utilises ultrasonic technology that generates an ultra-fine microscopic mist. This gently opens the cuticle layer at very low temperatures to infuse treatment ingredients deep inside each hair strand, without dilution, before its Cool Shot feature re-seals the cuticle for tangibly improved outcomes, and longer-lasting results.
Katie says: “Spa Mist II also effectively removes debris and build-up to gently cleanse the scalp and follicles resulting in a cleaner, healthier scalp while repairing and hydrating damaged hair, and promoting healthy hair growth. It also ensures that products used in head spa treatments penetrate into the hair and scalp more efficiently to enhance the benefits and results.”
As an exclusive addition to the Yume Series, Takara Belmont’s new Head Bath attaches to the Yume basin* to soothe and relax, as warm flowing water creates the definitive head spa experience. Head Bath enhances every client encounter while increasing the value of treatments by actively improving scalp health and well-being and, as Katie explains, this completes the perfect Japanese Head Spa.
“Head spa treatments are all about creating the ultimate sensory experience with hair and scalp health at their core. Supreme comfort, luxury and atmosphere are vital to the overall experience and the Yume Series, Spa Mist II and Yume Head Bath combine perfectly to achieve this, while ensuring that clients enjoy lasting benefits to their hair and scalp.”
Business-wise
On a commercial note, Katie is also keen to highlight the business opportunities for salons too. “Head spa treatments will keep clients coming back and recommending to others, so it’s a great lever to build loyalty and attract new clients. In addition to promoting it as a new and specialised service, that will attract attention in itself, salons can also create packages and bundles, build it around other VIP and spa-style services, and create specific promotions. For example, Spa Mist II allows for the introduction of hand and nail conditioning treatments and enhanced colour outcomes, which can work in perfect synergy with head spa services. The opportunities are there for salons to really maximise their growth potential.”
By combining these world-class equipment concepts, your salon can achieve unparalleled levels of comfort, create new sensations of luxury and relaxation, and boost hair and scalp health for clients. The equipment salons need to introduce the original Japanese Head Spa experience is available exclusively from Takara Belmont.
