Hair Treatments in Falls Church, VA
Treatments are the maintenance side of healthy hair. They aren't as flashy as a color transformation or a fresh cut, but they're often the difference between hair that looks great for a week and hair that looks great for three months.
If your color is fading fast, your ends feel rough, your scalp is itchy or oily, or your hair just feels flat and dull, that's what treatments are for. Think of them as a reset for your strands.
We offer four treatments at The Mane Edit, each designed to solve a specific issue. We'll recommend what's actually going to help, not just upsell what's most expensive.

Our Services
Oribe Renewal Remedies ($55)
A luxe, custom-blended treatment that restores strength, softness, and shine. Tailored to your hair's specific needs for immediate, long-lasting results. We mix the formula at your appointment based on what your hair is asking for that day, whether that's deep conditioning for dryness, rebuilding for damaged strands, or smoothing for frizz.
A purifying treatment that removes product buildup, hard water minerals, and impurities, leaving hair clean, weightless, and refreshed. Especially useful for clients across the DMV, where moderately hard water builds up on hair over time. We recommend this for anyone who uses a lot of products, swims regularly, or notices their hair feels coated and dull even after washing.
Scalp Detox Treatment ($50)
A deep-cleansing, exfoliating treatment that removes buildup, balances oil, and revitalizes the scalp, promoting a healthier environment for hair growth. Best for clients dealing with itchy or flaky scalp, oily roots, or hair that feels weighed down at the root.
Clarifying Treatment ($50)
Keratin Express (from $150, includes blow dry and style)
A smoothing treatment designed to reduce frizz, soften texture, and enhance shine, leaving hair more manageable, polished, and effortlessly smooth. Great for anyone who fights frizz daily, whether it's the DMV humidity in summer or just naturally textured hair you'd like to soften.
How we recommend treatments?
Treatments aren't one-size-fits-all. Before we suggest one, we look at your hair, talk through what you're noticing, and pick the treatment that's actually going to help.
Some quick guidance on which treatment fits which issue:
Hair feels rough, dry, or damaged: Oribe Renewal Remedies
Itchy, flaky, or oily scalp: Scalp Detox Treatment
Hair feels coated, dull, or heavy even after washing: Clarifying Treatment
Frizz, humidity issues, or hard-to-style texture: Keratin Express
Color faded faster than you expected: a Gloss (see our Hair Color page)
If you're not sure what your hair needs, just ask at your appointment. We'll give you an honest read.
Add-on or standalone
Most of our treatments can be added to a color, cut, or extension service for a quick boost. Some can also be booked on their own, especially when you're between appointments and want a refresh.
If you're a regular color client, building a treatment into your routine every 6 to 8 weeks (alternating with your color appointments) is one of the best ways to keep your hair looking and feeling its best long-term.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
A Clarifying Treatment focuses on the strands themselves, removing product buildup, mineral deposits, and impurities from your hair. A Scalp Detox focuses on the scalp, exfoliating dead skin cells, removing buildup at the roots, and rebalancing oil production. They solve different problems, though clients dealing with multiple issues sometimes combine them across appointments.
-
It's a custom-blended, professional-grade treatment that restores moisture, strength, and shine. We tailor the formula to your hair's specific needs at that appointment. Some clients are dealing with breakage, others with dryness, others with dullness. The treatment is mixed for what your hair needs that day.
-
No. Keratin Express is a smoothing treatment, not a straightening treatment. It reduces frizz, softens texture, and makes your hair easier to style. You'll keep your natural movement and curl pattern, just without the frizz and resistance that come with humidity and damage.
-
Most clients see results for about 4 to 6 weeks, depending on how often you wash, what products you use, and how much heat you apply. Sulfate-free shampoo extends the life of the treatment significantly.
-
It depends on your hair and your routine. As a general guide:
Oribe Renewal Remedies: every 4 to 6 weeks for damaged or dry hair
Scalp Detox Treatment: every 6 to 8 weeks for buildup or oil concerns
Clarifying Treatment: every 6 to 8 weeks if you use a lot of product, less often otherwise
Keratin Express: every 4 to 6 weeks for ongoing frizz management
-
Yes. All four of our treatments can be booked as standalone appointments. They're a popular maintenance booking between bigger services.
-
No. Professional-grade treatments are formulated to absorb into your hair, not coat it. You'll leave with hair that feels soft, looks shiny, and behaves better, not weighed down or oily.
-
Standalone treatment appointments run about 30 to 60 minutes depending on the type. Keratin Express runs longer because it includes a blow dry and style. Add-on treatments add about 15 to 30 minutes to your existing service.
-
Yes. Most of Northern Virginia, DC, and parts of Maryland have moderately hard water, which means mineral deposits build up on your hair over time. Clients often notice their color fades faster, their hair feels coated, or their styling products stop working as well. A Clarifying Treatment every couple of months helps reset that.
-
Our treatments at The Mane Edit are $50 for the Scalp Detox Treatment or Clarifying Treatment, $55 for Oribe Renewal Remedies, and start at $150 for Keratin Express (which includes a blow dry and style).
