Curious about our New Age Scalp Care treatments at Scalp to Face Boutique? In this section, we cover everything you need to know about Lydia153 Houston’s specialized services. Learn how our science-based, proven methods go beyond traditional head spa treatments to address concerns like hair loss, seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, and scalp psoriasis, enhancing your natural beauty and helping you maintain a youthful appearance. Discover why our holistic approach is the best investment for your long-term beauty and well-being.
Lydia153 Houston is not a traditional head spa. We are a specialized scalp treatment center with over 25 years of expertise in Scalp Science. Our methods and products are the result of extensive research, development, and clinical trials across various countries. We take a holistic approach to scalp health, using our uniquely formulated, natural ingredient-based ampoules to deliver proven results.
The scalp is twice the size of the face, and while the skin on the scalp is different, it’s connected to facial skin. A healthy, supple scalp supports facial skin, helping maintain a youthful appearance. In contrast, a sagging scalp can amplify sagging facial skin. Therefore, maintaining a healthy scalp is essential for effective facial care.
At Lydia153 Houston, we provide a unique wellness experience that goes beyond traditional scalp treatments. Our Scalp Detox Care and Anti-Aging Care both include our patented automated cupping massage, targeting the upper back, neck, and head. This massage, performed over light clothing and hair, uses negative pressure to improve blood and lymphatic circulation, release muscle tension, and eliminate toxins.
The result? Relief from built-up stress, enhanced immunity, and a deep sense of relaxation. Many of our clients report improved sleep after just a few sessions. If you’re looking for a quick but powerful wellness escape that fits into your busy schedule, our treatments offer the perfect solution. Experience it for yourself—you’ll be glad you did!
Our body has an incredible self-healing capability, known as homeostasis. However, constant exposure to harmful chemicals, microplastics, heavy metals, and even brain waste can overwhelm this natural process, leading to scalp issues.
Regular scalp detoxification supports the self-healing process by removing harmful residues from hair treatments, daily environmental exposure, and internal waste buildup. Incorporating occasional detoxification into your routine helps maintain a healthy scalp and hair.
Our scalp detoxification process is unique because it incorporates a holistic approach:
- Optimizing the body’s detoxification mechanisms: Our patented automated cupping massage improves lymphatic drainage, increases blood circulation, and relaxes muscle fascia, enhancing detoxification.
- Supporting the homeostasis mechanism: We use Jet Air technology and our natural RS1 scaling ampoule to cleanse the scalp while strengthening the skin’s protective barrier, unlike common head spa practices that remove this barrier. Our method aids homeostasis without overstimulating it.
- All-in-one shampoo: We use a pH-balanced, all-natural shampoo to condition hair and scalp for optimal health.
- Multi-Wave Phototherapy: This therapy optimizes cellular activity for maximum results.
Even a yearly scalp detox is better than none. Ideal times for detoxing include after hair treatments, during seasonal changes, or before special occasions. If you’re experiencing heightened stress, more frequent treatments can help you cope better.
Stress triggers the release of cortisol, a hormone that redirects blood flow to essential organs while reducing blood flow to extremities, including the scalp. This reduced blood flow to hair follicles can lead to thinning and hair loss over time.
Our treatments, including automated cupping massage and scalp cooling with Jet Air spray, effectively relieve stress in the scalp, neck, and upper back areas. Many clients who struggled with sleep due to extreme stress have experienced improved sleep after just a few scalp treatment sessions. Optimizing blood flow, lymphatic fluid flow, and muscle movement is fundamental to maintaining a healthy scalp.
Lydia153’s Anti-Aging Scalp Care is designed to restore the natural hair growth cycle, which can be disrupted by stress, hormonal imbalances, genetics, and other factors. As people age, their hair growth cycle shortens while regression and shedding phases lengthen, leading to thinning hair and increased hair loss.
Just as regular exercise enhances blood flow and muscle tone to maintain a youthful appearance, our treatment supports scalp health through a combination of cupping massage, Jet Air spray with natural and highly effective ampoules, and multi-wave phototherapy. These therapies help maintain a supple and elastic scalp, encourage healthy hair, and contribute to a more youthful look.
The ideal frequency for Anti-Aging Scalp Care varies based on your age, scalp condition, and overall health. Our goal is to help you achieve and maintain optimal scalp health, which may require treatments once or twice a week or as infrequently as once a month, depending on your specific needs.
Once your hair growth cycle has returned to its normal state, a maintenance treatment once a month, or every two to three months, is typically sufficient to sustain healthy hair growth.

Not entirely. While our shampoo bar and ampoules can support hair health and improve the scalp surface, they are most effective when complemented by in-person treatments. These products alone cannot fully address the deeper layers of the scalp. For optimal results, we recommend combining occasional in-shop sessions with your home care routine. This approach ensures a more comprehensive treatment and enhances long-term benefits.
Yes, we have helped many clients manage scalp psoriasis symptoms. Our scalp care treatments are designed to strengthen the skin’s protective barrier. Since scalp psoriasis is an immune disorder that weakens this barrier, our holistic scalp care can help alleviate symptoms by reinforcing the skin’s natural defenses.

Hair flattens in high humidity due to its porous nature and the absorption of moisture from the air. Here’s a simplified explanation:
Hair is composed of a protein called keratin and has an outer layer known as the cuticle, made up of overlapping scales. When exposed to high humidity, hair absorbs moisture from the air. This causes the cuticle scales to swell and lift, making the hair more porous and allowing even more water to penetrate the hair shaft. As a result, the hair strands increase in diameter and weight.
The added moisture and weight cause the hair to lose its natural shape and become limp. The increased water content also disrupts the hydrogen bonds that maintain the hair’s structure, leading to straightened or less defined curls. Additionally, the excess moisture can cause frizz and flyaways.
In summary, high humidity flattens hair by increasing its porosity and weight, which disrupts its natural shape.
To combat this, our pH-balanced shampoo helps the cuticle remain tight, better resisting moisture and making hair less prone to frizziness.
