Frequently Asked Questions

Aloe & Honey isn’t just a head spa — it’s Calgary’s first herbal trichology studio rooted in both science and soul. Every treatment is designed to support not just your scalp, but your nervous system, your hormones, and your healing.
Unlike traditional salons that focus on aesthetics, or spas that offer surface-level relaxation, Aloe & Honey goes deeper. I’ve studied trichology and herbalism to understand the “why” behind scalp issues like shedding, oiliness, flaking, and inflammation — and I combine that with Ayurvedic wisdom, breathwork, and hands-on nervous system care to create a full-body experience through your crown.
We don’t rush. We don’t do one-size-fits-all. Each service is fully customized with handmade fresh masks, detox teas, and intentional techniques to meet you exactly where you are — whether you’re post-burnout, post-hormonal spiral, or just ready to reconnect with your body.
This isn’t just about hair.
It’s about helping you come home to yourself — one breath, one follicle, one reset at a time.

Herbal Trichology blends science-backed scalp health with ancient herbal wisdom. We use natural ingredients like aloe, honey, essential oils, herbs, and therapeutic teas to soothe inflammation, balance oil production, encourage hair growth, and restore the scalp's ecosystem. Think of it as skincare for your scalp — but better.

Everyone. But especially you if you’re dealing with:
Itchy or irritated scalp
Post-flared-up scalps
Chronic scalp conditions
Dryness or flakiness
Excess oil + buildup
Hair thinning or slow growth
Stress-induced scalp issues
Or if you just want healthy, thriving hair + a calm nervous system
-
Nope! Come as you are. Most treatments include a full herbal cleanse with scalp detox, so it’s actually better if I can see your scalp in its natural state — oil, buildup, and all.
-
• Come with dry, detangled hair and avoid heavy oils, dry shampoo, or styling products. This helps me assess your scalp in its natural state.
• If you colour your hair, book toward the end of your colour cycle — treatments involve multiple washes and steam, which may fade fresh colour.
• You’ll be given a spa robe, so wear something easy to change out of and relax in.
• Remove jewelry and come with a fresh face (no makeup) if your treatment includes a face mask.
• Disclose any serious health concerns on your intake form and feel free to send recent bloodwork to help me build a more detailed, personalized plan.
If you’re unsure what to book or need help choosing the right treatment, just email me at founder@aloeandhoney.ca — I’m happy to guide you.

I use all-natural, professional-grade herbal haircare products from Belgium — formulated without harsh chemicals, sulfates, or parabens. I also create fresh treatments using raw, therapeutic ingredients like aloe, honey, essential oils, banana peel, rose water, and more.

No problem — that’s exactly why I take a medical-style intake before your first appointment. We’ll go over everything: your scalp health, stress levels, lifestyle, and sensitivities. Every treatment is personalized, and I always patch test if needed.

Life happens — I get it. But to respect both our time, I ask for at least 48 hours’ notice for any cancellations or reschedules. Late cancellations will be result in losing your $50 deposit. No-shows will be charged the full treatment amount.

That depends on your scalp goals. Some clients come weekly for deep healing, others come monthly for maintenance. After your first visit, I’ll suggest a schedule that fits your lifestyle and hair health journey.
