Scalp massage note
Our scalp massage note is a practical card for anyone with lightened, highlighted or naturally fair hair, especially after a salon visit or colour week.
Best fit for this scalp card
This scalp massage note is designed for our fair-haired clients who feel a bit of dryness or itch a few days after colour, toner or highlight visits. Most find it especially useful in the first week after a fresh salon service, or anytime the scalp feels tight after a busy, dry season.
Colour and lightening services can lift the scalp’s natural oils, causing mild itching or tightness, especially in dry Highveld winters or after a toner. A gentle scalp massage helps encourage natural oil flow, supports circulation, and brings some calm back to your root area. Stylists can use this card to guide clients after lightening appointments.
Two-minute roots routine
The card sets out a short two-minute massage routine to follow once or twice a week, after your usual wash and towel-dry. It keeps things simple, so you can remember the steps without needing your phone handy in the bathroom.
To follow it: wash with Blonde Wash Soft or your usual gentle shampoo, gently towel dry, then use clean fingertips to massage your scalp in small, slow circles from your hairline to the crown. Avoid using your nails. Move section by section, don’t rush, and finish with a light leave-in like Scalp Calm Milk if your scalp feels sensitive. There’s a space on the card to jot a quick note if you spot extra dryness or any unusual flaking.
- Short, clear steps for a two-minute scalp massage
- Weekly or post-colour routine guide
- Tips for gentle technique and products to use
- Quick note section for dryness or changes
How to use the care card over a month
Keep the card somewhere easy to spot, like your bathroom shelf or mirror, and use it each time you wash your hair during colour weeks. If you forget a week, its not a train smash, just start again with your next wash.
Tracking your scalp comfort and jotting notes on the card can help you spot patterns: for example, drier days after a salon visit or itchier roots during Highveld winter. If you see more than mild itch or any broken skin, speak to a doctor. You can request the latest printable care card through our contact form, or ask in person at Kramerville or any of our mall showrooms.
