- We are going to a salon to get my scalp cleaned.
Wow.
It's 7:00 AM.
(energetic music)
- I'm not supposed to be in this video.
I'm just chauffeuring (laughs) you to the shoot.
- Lindsay de chauffeur.
(Lindsay laughs)
- From birth, okay I don't know if that's true... (laughs)
(test beep)
Since I can remember,
my scalp has always been a dry, period.
But when I came out to LA,
it like intensified by a thousand.
Nothing that I'm like ashamed of or anything.
I can literally wash my hair
and then I'll comb through it
and there will be dandruff or like red spots on my head.
So I'm like, "This is the hand I've been dealt."
What I hope to happen, (crickets chirping)
I don't know. (laughs)
(test beep)
I hope there's relief.
I hope I can like feel it being like,
"Oh my gosh, this is a new experience."
You know?
Like it can breathe.
- Right.
- That's what I hope to feel.
I don't know what's supposed to happen.
(drumroll and uptempo string music)
- Hi, my name is Arisa at the Blow Me Away Salon.
Today, I'm going to cleanse Jazz's scalp.
In Japan, they conscious about healthy, beautiful hair.
And we know it's coming from scalp health.
You get your healthy hair and shine back again.
So it's like a facial.
Skin renewal is about 28 days.
I recommend to get the head spa every four to six weeks.
I'm going to check Jazz's scalp with a microscope camera
to analyze her scalp condition
and determine what kind of service I'm going to provide her.
Let's get started.
(scene change swoosh)
I'm gonna check your scalp, okay?
- Okay.
Arisa started taking pictures of my scalp
with a microscope.
I was like, "I'm just about to be exposed."
- When did you wash your hair last time?
- I washed it about five days ago.
- Five days ago. - (gasps) Oh my gosh!
(Arisa laughs)
It was not clean. (laughs)
- And how often you wash? (Jazz gasps)
- Oh.
I wash it maybe once a week.
- Once a week, okay.
- Is that a lot?
- Mm, you might want to wash a little bit more often.
- Oh.
Do you see like the redness?
- Yes, you have inflammation going on.
- Yes.
It was very inflamed
(camera snaps)
and there was a little bit of like dirt buildup.
- Okay, so you'd think your scalp is dry
Because the flakes? - I mean, I assumed, yeah.
Okay, turns out I was 100% wrong.
- I cannot see your scalp.
Those white stuff, it's not your scalp.
It's all build up accumulated. (dramatic sound)
(Arisa laughs) - Woof.
- It's coming from your product residue.
- That makes sense. - And also oils.
Conditioner is for your hair, not your scalp.
- Scalp.
- Definitely, we need to do the deep cleansing.
- Cleanse me away, honey.
(Arisa laughs)
I'm ready. (laughs)
(test beep)
- Wow.
(Arisa laughs)
Got a lot of hardware.
(test beep)
(gentle music)
So we went into the treatment room.
It was lux.
She put a blanket on me.
She lifted my legs up.
She told me most people fall asleep,
but I literally still, at this point,
did not know what was going to go on.
- I'm going to give Jazz our new treatment.
It's called CO2 Bubble Cleansing Headspa Treatment.
We utilize a precise balance carbonation
to carry away all the buildup
and deep cleanse the hair follicles.
So first, I'm going to wash with regular water,
and second,
I'm gonna wash with the CO2 Bubble water.
- Oh.
- And I want to show you how it's different.
(water running)
- Oo.
Honestly, that felt great. (laughs)
I haven't even had that experience many times, at all,
in my life.
So I was like, "Oo, this, this is great."
And we were like three seconds in.
(water running)
I have a question.
- [Arisa] Yes?
- I've been told
it's better for your scalp
to wash it with cold water?
- No, it's not right.
Actually, I want you to use, not hot water, warm water.
Because the warm water takes the oil.
- Oh.
- Yeah.
- Wow, I've been living a lie.
Then, Arisa brings out the CO2 water.
(water running)
(gentle music)
- Oh.
(water bubbling)
This is like a jet.
Which basically feels like a jet in a pool
or a hot tub on your scalp.
So I was just like, "Ohh..."
(water bubbling)
(romantic music)
- That was lovely.
- You might want to tape this.
(tape stops abruptly)
- Oh, (beep).
- This is dirt.
It came from your scalp.
- Is it a lot?
Like she showed me this little cup of dirt,
germs, grossness.
It was not cute, it was not cute at all!
(Arisa laughs)
- All right, so I'm going to apply the pre-cleansing gel.
- What does pre-cleansing do?
- Like a makeup remover.
- Oh.
- Yes.
- Oh, you are spot on.
(Arisa laughs)
(rubs gel in hands)
Oo, it smells good.
(lathering cleanser)
(gentle music)
I don't think I've ever had any, like scalp massage before.
Ooh!
She definitely had hands of an angel.
It took me to the higher being
and I was just sitting there like (heavenly sound).
- Massage is actually very important
to increase circulation and help the hair growth.
- Oh, okay.
Oh yeah, I'ma be doing this.
(water running)
- Scalp shampoo.
- Oh my gosh.
My legs just went numb.
What does scalp shampoo mean?
- The purpose is cleansing shampoo.
- Okay.
- Most of shampoo is made for the hair.
It has like a volumizing, moisturizing.
It could cause clogging.
- Oh, okay.
- So I recommend you use the scalp shampoo once a week.
Is there like mint? - Yes.
- Or, I was going to say...
Yeah, this smells delicious.
Also my head is like tingling.
Not like an uncomfortable tingling,
but it was just like a soothing,
like you know something's going down.
- Feel squeaky clean?
- Mm-hmm.
(squeaky toy)
Does that squeakiness just mean that it's like super clean?
- Yes.
(squeaky toy)
- Next, I'm going to do the mask.
(gentle music)
Mask for the moisturizing.
And I'm going to put her in a steamer.
(Jazz gasps)
- So does the steam like open up?
- Exactly.
- Okay.
- Penetrate the mask into your hair.
- I'm learning.
And then she brought out the steam.
- Now I'm gonna steam your hair.
- Hey!
I'm so interested.
Wow.
- Is it too hot?
- No!
(plastic crunching)
She just like zipped me in
and I was like, "What am I being closed?"
I don't know what it looked like otherwise,
but it felt like my head was in a vacuum seal.
- [Lindsay] You looked like your head was in vacuum seal.
- Did it? (laughs)
It was just like soft, refreshing.
It was like sitting in a steam room, but just my head.
Wow.
If I couldn't see the steam,
I wouldn't know what's going on.
Am I cooked? (laughs)
- [Arisa] Yes, well done.
(Jazz laughs)
(velcro zipping)
She also put serum into my follicles,
which was supposed to help them like open up,
and again help with the inflammation.
- Now we're going to apply serum
to moisturize and revitalize your hair follicle.
- Honestly, the whole process was freaking amazing.
She knew what she was doing and it felt...
I'm going back.
- All right, the treatment is all finished.
- Yes.
Can I feel it?
- Yes, of course.
- Oh, yeah.
- Soft. - Very soft.
Yeah, this feels great.
(scene change swoosh)
All right, now we're going to see
what my scalp looks like post-treatment.
- Let's check.
- Let's see.
I'm not going to lie,
I was like,
yes, I knew my scalp had some buildup
and it was like "dirty,"
but I was like,
"This redness is not gonna go away in a 45-minute treatment.
Like good luck, Arisa."
(gasps) Oh!
- [Arisa] All right!
- Wow!
- Do you see shine?
- That is squeaky.
(Arisa laughs)
My redness was like, barely even red.
Even like the redness has gone down.
(photo snaps)
- That was like red-red before.
- [Arisa] Right.
- It looks so clean!
(photo snaps)
- I truly did not even know this was able to be done.
So thank you so, so much.
- You're welcome.
- Beautiful!
(scene change swoosh)
I was a person, when I was younger,
and I had like dandruff or flakes,
I was like, "Oh my gosh, no, don't look at me.
Everyone's going to make fun of me."
Who the (beep) cares?
If you wanna get a scalp treatment,
I would, I would say do it because it feels really good.
And it's good to like, just have a deep wash.
But if you're walking around with dandruff
or whatever on your scalp, do not be ashamed.
You're cute anyway.
Let's go.
(joyful music)
