Lessons in this module
| Lesson | Title | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Lesson 1 | Prepare Client | Scalp massage and 11 basic scalp manipulations, good housekeeping, workplace safety, waste collection, sanitary practices, the first aid kit, and clean-up |
| Lesson 2 | Treat Hair Condition | Preparing for a treatment service, tools and supplies, hot oil treatment, and treating dandruff and oily scalp and hair |
Lesson 1: Preparing the client
A healthy scalp is clean and well stimulated, and a scalp massage helps keep it that way. The module says a scalp massage works best when given regularly: once a week for a normal scalp, and more often for scalp disorders, alongside a dermatologist’s treatment. If the scalp has abrasions, stop the massage.
Basic scalp manipulations
The module describes 11 movements:
- Scalp massage: cup the client’s chin in your left hand, place your right hand at the base of the skull, and rotate the head gently. Reverse hands and repeat.
- Sliding movement: place your fingertips on each side of the head and slide firmly upward until they meet at the top. Repeat four times.
- Sliding and rotating movement: like the sliding movement, but move the fingertips clockwise or counterclockwise.
- Forehead movement: hold the back of the head with your left hand and move your right hand up the forehead to one inch past the hairline.
- Scalp movement: press your palms against the scalp and lift it in a rotary movement, first above the ears, then at the front and back of the head.
- Hairline movement: massage around the hairline by lifting and rotating.
- Front scalp movement: drop back one inch and repeat over the front and top of the scalp.
- Back scalp movement: work the thumbs from below the ears up to the crown, then toward the center back of the head.
- Ear-to-ear movement: with your left hand on the forehead, massage from the right ear to the left ear along the base of the skull with the heel of your hand.
- Back movement: rotate from the base of the neck along the shoulder and shoulder blade to the spine, then repeat on the other side.
- Shoulder movement: massage from the base of the skull down the spine with a rotary movement, then bring the hand back up.
Salon safety and sanitation
The lesson also teaches how to keep a salon safe and clean:
- Good housekeeping protects workers and clients. Benefits include fewer accidents, better use of space, less money spent on repairs, better morale and productivity, and happier clients who come back.
- Safety precautions include no smoking, storing tools after use, posting caution signs, keeping a first aid cabinet, unplugging equipment before leaving, and holding fire and earthquake drills. In a fire, pull the alarm, turn off the main switch, aim the extinguisher at the base of the fire, and crawl low if there is smoke.
- Sanitary practices: advise clients with infectious skin disease or head lice to see a physician or dermatologist. After every service, disinfect tools, dispose of used items, seal and disinfect soiled towels, and scrub your hands.
- First aid kit: it should hold items such as a first aid booklet, triangular bandages, disposable gloves, gauze, sterile dressings, cotton wool, eye pads, safety pins, antiseptic solution, an eye bath, medical wipes, and tweezers.
- Clean-up: discard used materials, put soiled towels in the hamper, remove hair from combs and brushes, sanitize the shampoo bowl after each client, and wash your hands.
Lesson 2: Treating hair conditions
Before any service, the hairdresser considers the type of client (adult, young adult, or teenager), does a pre-assessment and discusses options, drapes the client, and prepares tools and supplies.
| Tools and equipment | Supplies and materials |
|---|---|
| Blower, hair brush, wide-toothed comb, mixing bowls, shampoo bowl or sink, hair clamps and clips, shoulder cape, steamer | Small and big towels, cotton wool, tissue paper, shampoo, conditioner, oil or hair spa |
Hot oil treatment
A hot oil treatment moisturizes very dry scalp or hair. There are two kinds:
- Homemade: uses kitchen oils such as coconut, vegetable, canola, olive, or jojoba. One home version uses kakang gata (the first extract from grated coconut) mixed with hot water and calamansi juice, applied to the scalp one hour before shampooing. It spoils easily, so prepare it only one or two hours ahead.
- Commercial: store-bought oils, creams, or emulsions. They are more convenient but more expensive, and are the kind used in salons.
The procedure is done on dry, unshampooed hair divided into four sections. Warm the oil in a small bowl set in hot water, test the temperature with the client, and apply it with a cotton pad section by section. Massage the scalp using effleurage and then petrissage movements. Apply wrung-out hot towels (checked on your wrist first) for about two minutes each, or use a steamer. Finish by shampooing to emulsify the oil before adding water, then shampoo again.
Dandruff and oily scalp
- Dandruff is caused by a fungus called malassezia. Shampoo with antidandruff shampoo, towel dry, apply antidandruff conditioner, steam the scalp for about five minutes, then rinse and towel dry. Regular home use of antidandruff products is recommended.
- Oily scalp and hair comes from oil in the sebaceous glands. Brush the hair for about five minutes, apply medicated scalp lotion with cotton, dry the scalp under an infrared lamp or heated dryer for five minutes, massage, shampoo with shampoo for oily hair, then rinse and towel dry.
How to use this module
- Learners: Start with the five-item pretest in What I Know. Then work through each lesson’s parts in order. Write all answers on a separate sheet of paper, not on the module. The activities ask you to share your hair and scalp analysis with classmates, practice scalp manipulations on a family member, research new hair care products, and do actual demonstrations rated by your client using a scorecard (workmanship 30%, speed 30%, correctness of procedure 40%). Answer the Self-Check at the end of each lesson, then check the answer key honestly.
- Parents: Your child may need a family member to act as a practice client for the scalp massage and treatment activities, and may need to record photos or videos as proof of their work.
- Teachers: Each learning activity comes with a four-level rubric for content accuracy, structure, and grammar. The module also suggests YouTube videos on preparing clients for scalp and hair treatment as additional activities.

2.4 Ensuring client’s safety and comfort during the entire process
HOT OIL TREATMENT
This treatment is carried out to moisturize severely dry scalps or hair. It is best to use good quality olive oil, as this is the most refined and purest oil with the most moisturizing qualities.
TWO KINDS OF HOT OIL TREATMENT
1. Homemade Hot Oil Treatment
Homemade hot oil treatments are simple to make and the ingredients are easily found in the kitchen. You can use natural oil like coconut, vegetable, canola, olive, or jojoba, or you may combine them. There are also simple and easy to follow recipes for hot oil treatment with the use of this natural oil. These are the treatments for dry hair, flaky scalp, for itchy scalp, for frizzy hair, hair growth, and more.
Another kind of hot oil treatment done at home is by using kakang gata. This is the first extract from grated coconut. All you need is a cup of hot water, one-piece calamansi, and one small size of grated coconut. Pour hot water into the grated coconut. Get the extract and strain it before using. Add the calamansi juice, when about to use. Apply on scalp one hour before shampooing.
Note: Kakang gata spoils easily. Prepare it one or two hours before using.
2. Commercial Hot Oil Treatment
Commercial hot oil treatments are store-bought formulas and are much convenient but more expensive than homemade hot oil. This can be purchased in any leading store that offers cosmetics and beauty products. This kind of product is in a form of oil, cream, or emulsion. This can be also applied on your own and it gives the same benefit as the homemade hot oil does. These branded hot oil treatment products are the ones used in every salon because of their good results.
GIVING HOT OIL TREATMENT
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
All sources that come into contact with clients’ skin must be completely cleaned. This will help maintain a safe and hygienic working environment. In keeping the salon clean, you must always remember your personal cleanliness. Make sure to follow the standards for proper maintenance of health and hygiene to reduce risk of cross-infection.
PREPARATION OF THE CLIENT FOR HOT OIL TREATMENT
- Protect the client with a gown, towel, and plastic cape secured with a section clip.
- Seat the client at the workstation.
- The hair should be sectioned info four (like a hot-cross bun), secure each section with a sectioning clip.
- Prepare a tiny bowl with a small amount of olive oil and another much larger bowl filled with hot water.
- Do not shampoo the hair as this procedure is carried out on dry hair.

- Heat up a few tablespoons of oil by pouring them into the small bowl or bottle, then placing it in a larger bowl filled with hot water.
- Roll a small length of cotton wool into a circular pad and test the temperature of the oil. Check the temperature with the client if the heat is tolerable enough; apply the warm oil to the scalp/hair using the cotton wool pad.
- Place the completed section away from the client’s face and take a new section directly underneath. Continue this procedure until all the hair has been covered with oil.
- Start the scalp massage routine using effleurage movements.
- Continue massage routine using petrissage movements.
- When the scalp massage is complete, you may use the heat of hot towel or hood dryers to aid the penetration of the hot oil. But the best moist heat for this treatment is the application of a few hot towels or use of steamer if available.
- Fold towels lengthways, if half and then lengthways again. Thoroughly wet the towel with hot water at the basin. Carefully wring out the towel as much as possible (it should not be dripping with water).
- Check the temperature of the towel on your wrist before applying it to the client. As you apply the towel, ask the client if the temperature is satisfactory and, if so, wrap the towel on top of the head (the same as in shampooing procedure).
- Leave the towel on the hair for approximately two minutes or until the towel has cooled. Remove cold towel and repeat the procedure with remaining towels.
- Apply shampoo and massage using rotary movements to emulsify the oil thoroughly before adding any water to the hair. Repeat the shampooing process.
TREATING DANDRUFF
Dandruff is caused by the fungus called malassezia. Conditioners and shampoos with antifungal agents that control dandruff by suppressing the growth of the fungus are recommended to treat dandruff. There are also treatments that soften and loosen dandruff scales found in the scalp.
How to treat dandruff:
- Prepare the client, tools, and materials needed. Position the client on the chair and drape with shampoo gown.
- Wet hair and apply antidandruff shampoo. Massage the scalp and rinse.
- Dry the hair using towel.
- Apply an antidandruff conditioner on the hair.
- Use a scalp steamer for almost five minutes to loosen the remaining dandruff crust.
- Rinse thoroughly, then towel dry the hair.
Due to the ability of fungus to resist treatment, more salon treatment and the frequent use of antidandruff products at home is recommended.
TREATING SCALP AND OILY HAIR
Excessive oiliness of hair is caused by the conservation of oil in sebaceous (oil) glands in the scalp. To prevent this from happening, massage scalp, squeeze, and press hand to increase blood circulation and to remove hardened sebum in the pores of the scalp.
Here is how to treat scalp and oily hair.
- Prepare the client, tools, and materials needed. Position the client in the chair and drape the client.
- Brush the client’s hair for about five minutes.
- Apply medicated scalp lotion using cotton.
- Then dry the scalp using an infrared lamp or heated dryer. Do this for five minutes.
- Massage the scalp.
- Shampoo the hair using the shampoo for oily hair.
- Rinse and towel dry the hair.
CLEAN UP AND SANITATION
- Discard used materials. Place unused supplies in their proper places.
- Dispose soiled towels in hamper.
- Remove hair from combs and brushes, disinfect in their proper places.
- Clean the shampoo bowl and remove any loose hair.
- Sanitize shampoo bowl after each client.
- Wash your own hands with soap and warm water.
