Finding a salon that understands my needs
Finding the right salon has always been a little more complicated for me. Having lived with psoriasis since I was six years old, I’ve dealt with scalp flaking, irritation, hyperpigmentation, and flare-ups that sometimes made even the simplest hair treatments feel intimidating.
One particularly uncomfortable experience after coloring my hair left my scalp and nape swollen, sore, and red. Since then, I’ve been much more cautious about the products and treatments I try. I still love experimenting with my hair, but finding a salon where I feel comfortable communicating my concerns has always been just as important as the results.
My first visit to Celine’s Salon
I first visited Celine’s Salon in 2020 at its original branch in Sun City, General Santos City, my hometown. After hearing wonderful recommendations from friends about their scalp care services, I decided to give them a try.
From the initial consultation, I appreciated how attentive the team was to my concerns. They took the time to discuss my scalp condition and introduce me to care options suited to my needs. Before my hair coloring service, they applied a Milbon soothing scalp oil, which helped make that particular visit much more comfortable for me. I experienced little to no itchiness during the service, which was a welcome change from my previous experiences.
It was the kind of thoughtful care that made me want to return.

More than just a hair appointment

Beyond the treatments themselves, the warm and welcoming staff have always been part of what makes the experience special. I love being able to sit down, discuss my concerns, and enjoy a little time for myself. They also offer manicure and pedicure services, making it easy to turn an ordinary appointment into a proper self-care day.
For me, Celine’s Salon is more than just a place to get my hair done. It has been part of my journey toward feeling more confident experimenting with my hair while learning to be more mindful of my scalp’s needs.
If you’re looking for a salon experience that combines thoughtful consultations, hair care services, and a welcoming atmosphere, Celine’s is a place worth exploring. For me, it has been a trusted part of my hair care journey since 2020, and my scalp and hair treatments remain among the services I keep coming back for.
