quinoa911-biotop-damagedhair

BioTop Professional created the 911 Quinoa Series to balance chemically treated hair by pairing it with resources of nature such as the super food quinoa, a source of complete protein. After Eména Spa Owner, Christina Kesaris curiously tried a sample size of the 911 Quinoa Series, she immediately decided the new hair line had to be carried at her eco-luxury spa in the Miami Design District.

The new hair products are formulated naturally without heavy and harsh chemicals and are manufactured using lab-purified water and locally-sourced ingredients. One of the featured products is the Quinoa 911 All In One Hair Treatment that repairs and rehabilitates dry and damaged hair.

Eména Spa Hair Stylists will now be incorporating the products into their styling techniques from cleansing to the extra shine and softness after a blow-out. Clients will be able to purchase items directly after their treatment at the spa or the spa’s online store.

We separate the hair into sections and then focus on blow drying the roots first to add that extra lift and create volume.

When we finish blow-drying the whole head we add Moroccanoil Treatment Light for shine and flexibility. Now flipping your head forward, we massage your hair and spray on the Luminous Hairspray for a long-lasting, flexible hold, without leaving a sticky residue.

How to Deep-Condition Hair

It’s very important to deep-condition your hair on a regular basis to help combat the damage of chemical treatments, coloring and heat styling. Lucky for you, Eména Spa offers a five to ten minute session with a hair mask to add moisture to your hair.

One of the deep condition treatments offered at Eména Spa is the Phytocitrus Restructuring Mask from our Phyto Hair Care collection. This hair masque delivers a blend of citrus fruits and proteins that effectively lock in color, restructure the hair fiber, and boost radiance.

Applying your mask from the roots to tips and then massaging it into scalp will help keep hair color bright, vibrant, and illuminated with shine. Certain masks can take up to 30 minutes to allow conditioner to be absorbed by hair.

Wrapping treated hair in a warm towel or staying under the dryer with a shower cap will open up your hair follicles. Then rinsing out your mask with cold water will close hair follicles and seal in the moisture.

You can purchase the Phytocitrus Restructuring Mask from our online store here.

The Benefits of Tape-In Hair Extensions

The first question that is usually asked in regards to hair extensions is “Do they look natural?” Here at Eména Spa we pride ourselves in providing luxuriant hair extensions that blend perfectly with your own hair. The method we use that ensures the best results is tape-in hair extensions.

Tape-in hair extensions use strips of clear double sided tape that is attached to the base of a weft of hair. These wefts are then taped as close to the scalp as possible, with your hair “sandwiched” in between two wefts. There are many benefits of using this new method of hair extensions so lets begin!

When looking for hair extensions, you want a method that is going to be worth the value you paid ($500+). The good thing about tape-in hair extensions is that they work great with a variety of hair textures. The application and removal of the tape is easy and simple. The process to apply the extensions takes only 30-50 minutes. The strips are thin and flat, not hard and bulky, in which one can rarely feel them. Another benefit of using this method is that they are extremely durable (2-3 months) as well as reusable!

Allow one of our professional hair stylists give you natural human hair extensions you need to achieve your desired look! Eména Spa is proud to be one of the few spas in the Design District area to offer this luxurious service. We guarantee our method will not damage your own hair when you follow our after care recommendations and follow-up with regular visits. Book your complimentary consultation today! Book Now.

How to Tame Frizzy Hair

Welcome to Miami, where it’s heat and humidity cause our hair to take on a mind of it’s own. Most of us suffer from dry and frizzy hair that seems to be unmanageable. Emena Spa has provided a few quick tips to help you combat frizzy hair.

1. Use a protein-infused conditioner to manage frizz as well as create shine. Your hair is usually frizzy because it lacks moisture so it is very important to deep condition your hair at least once a week. Emena Spa recommends you to use Phytomist Hydrating Conditioner to add moisture and boost radiance for color treated hair.

2. It is best to air dry your hair, but if you don’t have time use can use a light blow dryer for straight hair or a diffuser for curly hair. Too much heat can lead to damaged ends and more frizz so use heat protectant sprays or creams before applying any hot tools.

3. After styling your hair you can smooth away any flyways by using Moroccan Org. Anti-Frizz Finisher that can be found at our online shop. Apply a small amount in your hand and smooth it down to give your hair a nice shine.
