Treatment sequence and components
Treatment begins with a professional scalp analysis that evaluates follicular health, scalp condition, and contributing factors such as oil balance and irritation. We follow with Oxygen Gun Therapy and scalp preparation to hydrate cells and optimize the surface for products. A therapeutic scalp massage follows to stimulate circulation and relieve tension, then two restorative shampoos and a nourishing conditioner cleanse and fortify the scalp and hair.
Electrotherapy options are selected after assessment and may include High Frequency Therapy, Bio-Ionization Therapy, or Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) — the latter performed for 20 minutes as part of the session. The choice balances current scalp condition, client comfort, and desired focus areas; staff explain the expected sensations and trade-offs so you can choose the modality best aligned with your goals during the 60-minute appointment.
What to expect during sessions
This non-surgical session is designed to feel therapeutic rather than invasive: you can expect a hydrating oxygen mist, hands-on scalp massage, and two cleansing steps that leave the scalp balanced. Electrotherapy may produce mild tingling or warmth for some clients; staff monitor comfort closely. At session end you receive a professional drying and clear post-treatment recommendations to support continued scalp care without medical claims or guaranteed outcomes.
Before booking, decide which concerns you want prioritized — density, thinning at the part, or scalp sensitivity — so the assessment can focus testing and modality selection. The initial scalp analysis gathers observable markers and client history to inform treatment choices; staff may recommend follow-up visits and at-home routines but will not promise specific regrowth timelines. Bring questions and any recent scalp or medical notes.
Local suitability and scheduling
Local climate and lifestyle influence session planning: Washington’s humid summers can increase scalp oiliness while cooler months change wash frequency and styling needs. Many clients schedule appointments around commuting patterns — Rhode Island Ave–Brentwood and Brookland-CUA Metro stations are convenient for after-work visits — and Studio Chique offers flexible early-morning and evening booking options to accommodate parents and shift workers balancing family and work.
Studio Chique regularly serves nearby neighborhoods such as Hyattsville, Mount Rainier, Bladensburg, College Park, Brookland, and Brentwood, and welcomes visitors planning visits to the U.S. National Arboretum or Union Market. As a Therapeutic Recovery Program listed as HSA compliant, customers should verify HSA eligibility with their plan administrator and bring any documentation needed for reimbursement.
