About

The Modern Halo runs head spa and blowout bars in three Texas locations: Katy (Cinco Ranch), Memorial City at Bunker Hill in Houston, and Webster. The business describes itself as Houston's premier head spa and blow dry bar. The founders listed on its About page are Nicole Brayton (founder and owner), Jon Bakken (founder and CEO), and Christina Batson (founder and owner). Hours are Monday to Wednesday 10 am to 4 pm with late appointments available, Thursday to Saturday 9 am to 7 pm, and Sunday 10 am to 4 pm.

The head spa menu centers on scalp care. Heavenly Head Spa is a 45-minute visit listed at $70 for members and $95 for non-members, with a scalp massage, two hair washes, a conditioner and a rinse. Platinum Head Spa runs 75 minutes and is listed at $135 for members and $165 for non-members. It adds a steam conditioning treatment, a second wash, a scalp massage, and a massage of the neck, shoulders, hands and arms with hot stones, along with gentle detangling. Platinum clients leave with wet hair unless they also book a blowout. The site says the treatments use premium scalp care products.

The blow dry bar covers blowouts, updos, extensions and personal consultations. Signature Blowout is a 60-minute service that includes a 15-minute scalp detox, a wash, conditioner, and a blowout in the style the client picks, with products included. A standard Blowout takes 45 minutes and is shaped to hair length, texture and finish. Lil' Halo Blowout is for children ten and under and takes 45 minutes. The Lady Halo Updo is booked on clean, dry hair without a wash, so clients should schedule ahead. A Personal Hair Consultation looks at hair history, treatments, concerns, texture and natural fall before recommending a blowout style and any optional products or treatments. Blowout styling is performed by licensed cosmetologists.

The gentlemen's services are built for men and aim to ease tension headaches and dry scalp. The men's menu offers the Gentlemen's Heavenly Head Spa and the Gentlemen's Platinum Head Spa, which run for the same time and cost as the standard head spa, along with a Gentlemen's Beard Wash. Wellness services sit on their own separate menu. Headache Tension Relief is a 60-minute massage concentrated on the scalp, neck, shoulders and jaw, priced at $115 for members and $139 for non-members. A licensed massage therapist performs it using a routine created together with the studio's registered nurse. The site notes that wellness services are not medical treatments and describes them as relaxing, experiential sessions. Pre-Op and Post-Op Care is a 40-minute hair and scalp service for clients who cannot wash their hair in the shower around a procedure, adjusted to follow the surgeon's instructions. An intake is required before the first visit, and booking is done by phoning the studio.

Shared head spa sessions are available at each location, priced per person at regular rates with no charge for extra guests. Locations have cushioned beds, water halos and aromatherapy, and side-by-side chairs for friends or family booking together. Private bookings are offered for a party of two or for the whole studio, and group packages can be customized. Bachelorette and bachelor parties can book services before the event. Gift cards are available for purchase. Gift cards and memberships are location-specific and can only be redeemed at the location where they were purchased.

Head spa and blowout services are built around relaxing, experiential scalp and hair care, performed by licensed massage therapists and licensed cosmetologists.

Shared sessions take place in a setting with cushioned beds, water halos and aromatherapy.
