Aveda Botanical Therapy Scalp & Hair Treatment at Restyle +

I figured since I love flipping hair so much, I might as well
write a hair flipping guide to help those dummies to master this skill.

Look, I'm flying without wings!

Joke aside, my terribly damaged hair needed a fix.

Since my visit to Aveda Experience Center's opening at Gurney Plaza 2 months back,

I fell in love with their products as well as their mission to protect mother earth.

You can read about it here.

Lucky lucky me was given the opportunity to experience their luxurious

Botanical Therapy Scalp & Hair Treatment.

Time to tame my unruly hair!

I was treated with their Welcome Rituals upon arrival.

Aveda Comforting Tea was served, warm towel was offered
to refresh followed by Aroma Ritual with Blue Oil.
I felt so pampered already!

Surprisingly, he said my scalp is very healthy!

I have never gotten any positive feedback on my hair from any hair stylists.

It's always something like 'Wow when was the last time you did hair treatment?',
'You should totally chop off your hair, look at those split ends!' and it goes on and on.

But they did mention that my hair is too long and suggested me to trim a bit.

I didn't tell them that my goal is actually Lily Cole in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.

Meet Shu Gene, the trainer!

He was explaining to me about the treatment I was getting, the benefits, duration and etc.

Here's a list of hair treatments available for each hair conditions and the products used;

Mine would be Very Dry Hair in need of intense moisturizing treatment.

A little story behind:

Working closely with Ayurvedic physicians, Aveda's Research and Development
scientists artfully crafted Botanical Therapy's scalp and hair products to create
an intense aromatic experience and draw on the art and science of pure flower
and plant essences to rejuvenate the scalp, hair and sense.

Each Botanical Therapy combines Aromaology - the science of essential oils -
with a specialized massage or application technique that intensifies the sensory experience
for the guest while enhancing the benefits to the scalp and hair.

Beautiful hair occurs when the scalp and hair are healthy and balanced.

Based on the wisdom of Ayurveda, Botanical Therapy treats the ecosystem of the scalp
and hair by using aroma-therapeutic essential oils and touch to balance the scalp
and using potent plant actives to intensively repair and moisturize the hair.
Botanical Therapy can be customized to address every guest's scalp
and hair needs, allowing their natural beauty shine bright.

Scalp Remedy Intense Detoxifier was applied on various areas of the scalp.

It exfoliates the scalp, helps to unclog pores by deep cleansing

congested and excess sebum on scalp. It also removes build-up due to accumulated

dead skin cells from products usage, creating an ideal foundation for healthy hair.

And it also creates this messy bed head that I was quite fascinated with.

Rinsing off; Isn't the glass window pretty?

It's as if I was in the jungle surrounded by the harmonious sound of bird chirping and river flowing.

That totally made the hair rinsing experience even more enjoyable.

In love with this photo cause my nose looked high from this angle haha!

And they transformed me into 皇后娘娘 (ancient empress).

They used Dry Remedy Moisturizing Shampoo to wash my hair.

Hair was silky smooth, as if it was conditioned. Must get that shampoo!

Next was Intensive Moisture Hair Treatment using the combination of

Dry Remedy Penetrating Moisture and Treatment Masque.
