Customers, who experienced discomfort, redness or itchiness on their scalp after the henna treatment, did not experience any of the earlier mentioned after doing our Herbal treatment.

Yes, but we do not recommend that you do it. The herbal ingredients will take some time to take full effect to nourish your scalp. It will usually take for 2 weeks for you to harness maximum effectiveness of the herbal treatment. We suggest that you refrain from any coloring, perming, rebonding or performing any chemical process to your hair for at least 3 weeks. This is to allow the herbal ingredients to be fully absorbed into your scalp before doing any chemical process that may neutralise the herbal effect.

It is not necessary, as our herbal treatment is targeted to remove oil and dirt on the scalp. Most of our customers will however wash their hair first before coming for treatment.
