Our Treatments

What is a scalp consultation?

At Dreamin’, every Japanese Head Spa begins with a personalised scalp and hair consultation.

Before your treatment, we take a closer look at your scalp using a microscope camera with up to 200x magnification. We capture images from several areas of the scalp to better understand its current condition before deciding how to approach your treatment.

What Can We See During a Scalp Consultation?

Your scalp can tell us a lot when we look closely.

Using a 200x microscope camera allows us to observe areas that can be difficult to see with the naked eye, including signs of excess oil, dryness, flaking, product build-up and the condition around the hair follicles.

We show you the images and explain what we can observe, what may be contributing to the condition, and how your current hair care routine may be affecting your scalp and hair.

The purpose is simple: to help you better understand your own scalp before we begin.

Your Scalp Is Not the Same Every Day

Just like your skin, the condition of your scalp can change.

Weather, lifestyle, shampooing habits, product use and other factors can influence how your scalp and hair feel from one visit to the next.

This is why we don’t believe every guest should automatically receive exactly the same Head Spa.

Based on what we observe during your consultation and the condition of your scalp and hair on the day, we recommend a personalised Head Spa approach suited to your individual needs.

We Explain Before We Begin

Before your treatment begins, we explain the products we recommend using, why we have selected them and how they will be used during your Head Spa.

We believe you should understand what is being used on your scalp and hair and the purpose behind your treatment.

Once you are comfortable with the recommended approach, we begin your Head Spa.

Why Does Consultation Matter?

A Head Spa should be more than simply following the same routine for every guest.

At Dreamin’, consultation allows us to understand first, then care.

It helps us make more considered decisions about the products, techniques and treatment approach we use for your scalp and hair that day.

Our scalp consultation is not a medical diagnosis. If we observe something that may require medical attention, we may recommend seeking advice from an appropriate healthcare professional.

Our role is to help you better understand your scalp and hair, provide appropriate professional care within our scope, and help you make more informed choices about your ongoing hair and scalp care.

Personalised Japanese Head Spa on the Gold Coast

At Dreamin’ Head Spa on the Gold Coast, our approach combines Japanese-inspired care, professional hairdressing knowledge and an understanding of trichology to provide a more personalised experience.

We don’t simply ask:

“Which Head Spa would you like?”

We start by asking:

“What do your scalp and hair need today?”

Because the right care begins with understanding.

We observe. We explain. We personalise. Then we begin.

Our goal is to care for the hair you have today while helping you maintain a healthy scalp and naturally beautiful, glossy hair for the next 10 years and beyond.
