Keravive scalp treatment in
Shoreline, WA.

The Keravive makes a particular kind of sense at our Shoreline studio, because this is where D4 Season began — Seattle's first specialized head spa, opened in 2022 on Westminster Way just off Aurora. We spent our first years learning scalps by hand. Keravive is what happened when we added the HydraFacial device to that education: the most thorough scalp treatment we offer, sitting at the top of the menu at $258.

The treatment borrows its method from the HydraFacial our estheticians already run on faces — cleanse, exfoliate, extract, hydrate. On the scalp, the sequence goes after buildup instead of pores: dry-shampoo residue, styling wax, the oil that collects at the crown. It closes with a concentrated hydrating infusion. Ninety minutes, device and hands together, and you walk out blow-dried rather than dripping.

Two things we won't say. We won't call it a hair-growth treatment, because it isn't one — it cleans and hydrates the skin your hair grows from, and that's the full claim. And we won't pretend it's for everyone: sometimes a $90 hydrating facial or an $85 head spa is what your week actually needs, and we'd rather you book that. Persistent flaking, irritation or thinning belongs with a dermatologist first. We're a wellness studio, and comfortable saying so.

Both studios run the same menu at the same prices, so if the north end of the corridor is your side of town, the Keravive page for Lynnwood covers the identical treatment from up there.

At $258 for 90 minutes, the Keravive is the most expensive single service on our facial menu — and the longest. For contrast: the HydraFacial Signature is $150 and the Deluxe $185, both 60-minute face treatments; the La Mer ritual is $188; the menu opens at $70 with a 30-minute gua sha lift. Prices match our Lynnwood studio exactly, and gratuity isn't included.

What the premium buys is thoroughness. Our hands-on head spa treatments — a full menu of them, $50 to $220 — work through massage, steam and layered cleansing. Keravive adds the mechanical step: suction extraction that pulls buildup out rather than loosening it, and a hydration infusion measured section by section. If your scalp runs oily, if you train hard, or if dry shampoo is practically a food group in your routine, that difference is noticeable. If what you mostly want is the ritual, the scalp detox in Shoreline delivers deep hands-on cleansing at $168.

Undecided between face and scalp? Some guests alternate — Keravive one month, a HydraFacial in Shoreline the next — and the facial hub lays every option out side by side. Or just call: describing your scalp for two minutes usually settles it.

One more note: the Keravive has quietly become one of our most-given gifts. If someone in your life is impossible to shop for but permanently tired, a 90-minute scalp reset lands well — gift cards are available online for either studio.

A scalp holds more of the week than people expect — the jaw clenches, the shoulders rise, and the skin under your hair tightens along with everything else. The NCCIH's overview of stress is a useful, neutral read on how everyday strain shows up in the body; our answer to it is warm, unhurried and 90 minutes long.

Book the HydraFacial Keravive Scalp online through the Shoreline calendar, or call and we'll find the slot. Come as you are — unwashed hair is genuinely preferred, since we want to see your scalp in its normal state, and the treatment ends with a full shampoo and blow-dry anyway.

And if this becomes your standing appointment, you'll be in company. The 90-minute services are the ones our regulars guard on their calendars — long enough to properly reset, short enough to fit inside a Sunday. Most guests leave already planning the next one.
