Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Hydration Treatment.

Most sessions last 45 to 60 minutes, including consultation, shampoo, deep conditioning, and steam. Longer treatments or added services may extend time. We recommend arriving a few minutes early to discuss concerns and ensure a relaxed, unrushed experience.

Yes. Steam enhances conditioner absorption without altering chemical processes. We assess hair porosity and condition first, then tailor products and duration to protect color or relaxer integrity while restoring moisture, strength, and shine.

Most clients benefit from treatments every four to six weeks to maintain moisture and reduce breakage. Severely dry, textured, or recently chemically processed hair may need sessions every two to three weeks initially, then move to maintenance.

No—when used correctly, steam hydrates and helps define curls by smoothing cuticles. We customize steam duration and conditioning products to protect curl pattern and minimize frizz; a proper leave-in and styling routine after treatment preserves results longer.

Yes. Steam increases circulation and opens pores to allow soothing treatments to penetrate. We use gentle scalp treatments and hydrating masks to reduce dryness and flaking, while recommending at-home care and products to maintain scalp health between visits.

Most clients are good candidates, but active scalp infections, open wounds, or severe dermatitis may require postponement. Inform us of recent chemical services, scalp issues, or medical concerns so we can adapt or recommend safe alternatives.
