Head HQ

Does anyone else feel like the art of the facial has changed over the last few years?

There are so many incredible aesthetic treatments and advanced skin technologies available now, and if that’s what you’re looking for, they’re amazing. I genuinely believe there’s room for everyone, and I love seeing businesses thrive doing what they’re passionate about.

But personally… I’ve always been drawn to something a little different.

I think somewhere along the way, the simple beauty of skin-on-skin touch, nurturing treatments and deep relaxation has become a little overlooked. We’re so focused on reversing, correcting and fixing that we sometimes forget just how much tension we carry in our face.

Think about how often you clench your jaw, frown without realising, or hold stress in your neck and shoulders. That tension travels right up into your scalp.

At Head HQ, our facials are intentionally gentle.

We start with a cleanse, tone and exfoliation using mild, skin-loving products that support your skin rather than overwhelm it. It’s not about layering lots of products or using anything harsh. It’s about encouraging healthy circulation, supporting lymphatic drainage and bringing out your own natural glow.

The real magic, for me, is in the hands-on treatment.

Lymphatic facial massage, Korean-inspired techniques, slow shoulder and neck massage that melts into the scalp, and little ASMR touches while your products are soaking in. It’s all designed to help you switch off, release tension and leave feeling lighter than when you walked in.

It’s amazing how different your whole face can feel when your jaw softens, your shoulders drop and your mind pauses.

Maybe that’s just me… but I don’t think we can underestimate the power of human touch. 🤍

The best thing is I know she loves giving treatments and looking after you all as much as you enjoy receiving them..you can’t buy passion like that 🩷

Root spray saves our bacon plenty times doesn’t it!

Add in a little dry shampoo and this is the result.. and this head of hair had just been washed!

Under a magnification it’s fascinating to see the build up left behind.

People think I’m anti dry shampoo and root spray and anything that makes your life easier and it’s untrue. I’m all for lazy girl hacks but love to show you how to use them properly that doesn’t deteriorate your scalp and hair in the process!

Oily hair has definitely been this week’s hot topic… and it’s only Tuesday! 😅

So many people think they’re just “someone with oily hair” and end up stuck in the cycle of washing every day, reaching for the dry shampoo, then repeating it all over again.

But when you understand the part skin build-up, sweat, sebum oxidation and leftover shampoo residue play in your scalp’s health and oil production, so much of it starts to make sense.

I’m not here to tell you to throw your dry shampoo in the bin. My goal is to help you understand your scalp, uncover what’s really going on, and get it back into balance.

If dry shampoo is part of your routine, that’s absolutely fine. I’ll show you how to use it properly, how to care for your scalp alongside it, and how to avoid getting trapped in that constant wash-and-cover-up cycle.

A balanced scalp doesn’t always mean washing less. It means understanding what your scalp actually needs.

Who else knows the struggle of wondering… where do I put my arms? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hands gripping across your stomach… hanging off the side of the bed… or tucked under your bum because the bed’s just that little bit too narrow. I know the feeling!

That’s exactly why I chose a 1-metre-wide treatment bed at Head HQ.

It might not seem like a big deal, but when your arms don’t have anywhere comfortable to rest, your body holds tension. You finally start to drift off, your hands relax… then suddenly you jerk awake and grab hold again. Not exactly the deep relaxation we’re aiming for!

This bed gives you plenty of room, whatever your shape or size. Arms stay supported, shoulders can fully relax, and yes… there’s even enough room for your b***s to comfortably sit where they naturally want to without squashing your arms! 😂

It’s been very well tested, and trust me… the extra width makes all the difference when you’re trying to switch off completely.
