K18 Hair Facial in Santa Monica
a reset for your hair ✶The K18 Hair Facial is a deep-cleansing, five-step hair detox that lifts away buildup and repairs hair from within, for strength, softness and shine in under an hour.
Hair that's lost its bounce.
Hard water, styling products, heat and color all leave hair dull, heavy and prone to breakage. The K18 Hair Facial strips that buildup away, then uses K18's patented peptide to help reconnect broken keratin chains, so hair feels softer and stronger right away.
It's a great fit for dull, damaged, color-treated or chemically processed hair, hair exposed to hard water or lots of product, and as a reset before a color service or after a chemical one. Like every treatment at SkinGuru, it happens one guest at a time in our private boutique spa. This is a treatment for the hair itself; for the scalp, see our Japanese Head Spa and Keravive.

Before your visit
Will my hair be styled after?
We towel-dry and detangle, but we don't style hair. If you'd like a blow-dry, book one with our partner salon, Hair by Mr. Klein, downstairs.
How often should I come in?
Every 4 to 6 weeks, or as a reset before a color service. Between visits, K18's at-home products keep the repair going; we carry them in the shop.
Is this the same as a head spa?
No. The Japanese Head Spa treats your scalp; the K18 Hair Facial treats the hair itself. Not sure which you need? Book a free 30-minute Scalp Consultation.
Can I come with hair extensions or color-treated hair?
Yes. K18 is safe for color-treated hair and extensions. Mention extensions when you book so we can plan around the bonds.
