KScan Hair & Scalp Camera
Discover the KScan Hair & Scalp Camera at Gavin Ashley Hair Salon
At Gavin Ashley Hair Salon in Bury St Edmunds, we’re always searching for ways to enhance your salon experience and help you get the most out of your hair care routine. That’s why we’re thrilled to be one of the very few salons in the Suffolk area offering the revolutionary KScan Hair & Scalp Camera – a game-changing tool that gives you a closer look at the health of your scalp and hair like never before.
Just as your skin benefits from personalised care, your hair and scalp deserve the same thoughtful attention. The KScan allows us to perform a deep, personalised consultation so we can truly understand what your hair and scalp needs. Using this advanced technology, we can tailor the perfect Kérastase product routine for you – one that delivers real, visible results.
Your appointment begins with a one-on-one consultation with your stylist, who will chat with you about how your hair feels and behaves – whether it's flat at the roots, fluffy at the ends, oily, dry, or just not quite right. From there, the diagnosis begins using the handheld KScan device. This small but powerful camera helps us explore your scalp in incredible detail.
The KScan uses three different types of light to examine your scalp: a UV light that detects porphyrins, a type of healthy bacteria that plays a key role in scalp health; a cross-polarised light that highlights any redness or inflammation around the hair roots; and a white LED light that helps assess oiliness. By capturing high-resolution images through these different lenses, we can pinpoint any concerns such as itchiness, sensitivity, clogged pores, or a lack of natural oils, or happily confirm that everything is perfectly balanced.
Once we have a full picture, your stylist will talk you through the results, showing you the images and sharing insights provided by the camera’s AI-powered software. This intelligent analysis reveals everything from dandruff levels to the condition of your scalp barrier, along with a hair fall risk index – a rating based on your hair’s density, diameter, and health. If the scan shows blocked pores, for example, that means there may be a buildup of oils, dead skin cells, or bacteria affecting your scalp – something that can be treated effectively once identified.
Armed with this information, your stylist will create a customised treatment and home care plan using the most suitable Kérastase products for your needs. After your in-salon treatment, we’ll even show you a new scan so you can see the instant improvement for yourself – it’s a truly satisfying moment.
Because your scalp and hair can change with the seasons, stress, or lifestyle factors, we recommend repeating your diagnosis every three months to make sure your hair care stays perfectly in tune with your current needs.
