About Me
I received my training at the Aveda Institute Des Moines graduating with a Cosmetology certification in 2015. I was hired as a cutting specialist at Rick Mosley Hair for two years. I then made the switch to specializing in men's hair in 2017 at VP Men in West Des Moines before branching out on my own.
I have recently received training in the Japanese Head Spa method with organic Nekko products to help benefit the scalp, and am now excited to offer head spa treatments!
My studio is located in Johnston, Iowa inside Neon Heart Salon. I can’t wait to see you in my chair!

What is a Japanese Head Spa?
The Japanese Head Spa originates from the traditional Ayurvedic medicine of India. Its main focuses are three key elements: scalp cleansing, massage, and hair repair. By applying the correct products and performing acupuncture point massage on the scalp, the practice promotes scalp relaxation while gently balancing and cleansing dirt, oils, product build-up, and aging skin cells.
Skin renewal takes approximately 28 days. With age, it takes longer to renew a cell as there is more build up of dead skin cells on the scalp. Cleansing the scalp removes dead skin cells and product build up that your regular shampoo cannot remove. Loosening a tight scalp helps promote blood circulation which soothes itching, irritation, and prevents hair loss.
Additionally, massaging pressure points on the scalp can improve blood flow to hair follicles, encouraging hair growth, relieving fatigue, and reducing headaches. The condition of a person’s hair is in direct correlation of the health of their scalp, which is why it is important to take care of your scalp as well as your hair.
Exfoliating Head Spa Treatment
After a thorough analysis of the scalp, I will customize a scalp treatment based on your needs. This will include a deep cleansing and exfoliation of the scalp, an accupressure point scalp massage that will help stimulate blood circulation and nourish the roots, and a steaming.
*Price is based on length of massage time.
*Session includes a rough dry. A blow out and style will be an additional price.
