What’s Different
A basin ritual, chosen for the hair and scalp
The Tumi Hair Spa is not a machine, a chair attachment, or a Japanese-style head spa. It is Tumi’s basin ritual: a personalised scalp and upper-neck massage paired with a restorative treatment chosen for the hair and scalp.
For Tumi’s clients, it has become something more than a treatment: a short, deliberate pause in a full week, with hair and scalp care folded into the appointment.
What the Ritual Involves
The massage, and the treatment behind it
Every Hair Spa at Tumi begins with the signature scalp and upper-neck massage the salon is known for. It creates a moment of calm while stimulating the scalp and releasing tension through the upper neck.
From there, the experience is tailored to the condition of the hair and scalp on the day. A purifying scalp detox to refresh and rebalance, a restorative Kérastase ritual, intensive repair for blonde and chemically treated hair, or an express treatment when time is limited are all selected according to individual needs rather than prescribed as a fixed menu.
An aromatherapy hot-towel finish completes the ritual, leaving both hair and mind feeling renewed.
Where additional support is required, the bond-building technologies used throughout Tumi’s colour services can be seamlessly incorporated into the Hair Spa experience. By working in harmony with the chemistry of colour and lightening services, the treatment strengthens and restores the hair while complementing the wider appointment, ensuring the hair leaves looking as healthy as it does beautiful.
How It Fits the Appointment
A few minutes, or a longer pause
The signature scalp and upper-neck massage at Tumi forms part of every chemical service and is thoughtfully incorporated into the quiet moments between colour or treatments. Lasting anywhere from five to fifteen minutes, it is included as a matter of course, with no additional booking required.
For those wishing to extend the experience, the full Hair Spa ritual can be paired with a beautifully finished blow wave, creating a dedicated appointment of approximately forty-five to fifty minutes. The extended massage, bespoke treatment, aromatherapy hot-towel finish and polished blow-dry combine to transform a routine salon visit into a restorative escape.
Designed around the individual needs of the hair and scalp, the experience offers a moment of calm and indulgence while delivering visible results, leaving the hair feeling renewed, healthy and beautifully finished.
The Treatments
What the basin offers
Scalp Detox Scrub
A clarifying scrub that clears product build-up and resets the scalp, the right first step before a restorative treatment.
Kérastase Ritual
A restorative treatment ritual tailored to the hair’s needs, paired with a scalp massage and hot-towel finish.
Blonde Deep Repair
A deeper-repair treatment for blonde and chemically worked hair, restoring softness and condition where lift has asked the most of the hair.
Repair Express Ritual
A shorter restorative treatment for clients who want the benefit of the ritual when time is tight.
Who Books the Hair Spa
For the week that has asked a lot
The Hair Spa suits the client whose week is full and whose hair and scalp could use the attention, the professional who treats a considered ritual as maintenance rather than indulgence. It carries clients maintaining the condition of coloured or blonde hair, clients with a tight or congested scalp, and clients who simply want the pause that the massage and hot towel provide.
The clientele comes from Richmond, Cremorne, East Melbourne and South Yarra, and the late-night Tuesday and Thursday trading suits the after-work booking. Many fold the Hair Spa into their regular colour or cut visit; others book it as a standalone reset.
Pricing
What to expect on price
Hair Spa treatments are priced by the ritual. The scalp and upper-neck massage is already included inside every chemical service; the treatments below can be added to any appointment or booked alongside a blow-dry for the longer experience.
Frequently Asked
Questions, answered before the chair
What is the Tumi Hair Spa, exactly?
A personalised scalp and upper-neck massage at the basin, paired with a restorative treatment chosen for the hair and scalp, and finished with an aromatherapy hot towel. It is the part of the visit many of Tumi’s regulars count on most.
Is the massage already included, or is it extra?
The scalp and upper-neck massage, five to fifteen minutes, is already included inside every chemical service at no extra cost. The Hair Spa treatments and the longer paired version are the way to extend that ritual further.
Is this a Japanese head spa?
No. The Tumi Hair Spa is built around the salon’s basin work and treatment menu, rather than the water-chair format of a Japanese-style head spa.
Does the massage cover the shoulders?
The massage focuses on the scalp and upper neck, which is where the tension of a long week tends to settle. It is a precise, restorative few minutes rather than a full-body massage.
Can the Hair Spa be added to a colour or cut?
Yes, and it often is. The massage is already part of every chemical service, and the treatments can be folded into a colour, cut or blow-dry appointment. The longer paired version adds a thirty-minute blow-dry for a combined service of around forty-five to fifty minutes.
