Janis Beauty & Scalp Clinic brings a skin-clinic level of care to the scalp — and wraps it in a full-service beauty and hair salon — from its spot on Remuera Road in the heart of Newmarket, Auckland. The clinic's point of difference is right there in its name: rather than treating hair alone, its therapists work on the skin it grows from, with a dedicated scalp menu covering everything from deep cleansing to targeted programmes for dandruff, hair loss, and eczema or psoriasis.
Every scalp journey starts with a quick 15-minute scalp test, then moves onto a comfortable massage bed — a 60-minute deep cleanse using a vegan exfoliator, shampoo and a high-pressure machine to lift away dead skin, oil and product build-up, an 80-minute collagen infusion to keep the scalp's water and oil in balance, or longer 90-minute programmes for specific concerns. Around the scalp work sits a complete salon: cuts and styling for women, men and kids under ten, colour from regrowth touch-ups to balayage, perms, digital waves and permanent straightening, keratin and Kérastase treatments, and hair extensions.
Skin gets the same considered treatment, with a facial menu that runs from a hydrating classic and a cocoa-rich chocolate facial to a 24k gold facial, a French Fillmed anti-ageing facial and microneedling for acne scarring. Nails, waxing and eye-enhancing services round out the offering. Appointments can be made by phone, through the website's Book Now page or via the contact form.
Perched on Remuera Road in the middle of Newmarket's shopping strip, Janis Beauty & Scalp Clinic has built its name on an idea most salons are only now catching up to: beautiful hair starts with a healthy scalp. Where a conventional salon washes, cuts and colours, Janis treats the skin underneath as the foundation of everything else — and has assembled a treatment menu around that belief that goes well beyond a token head massage at the basin.
The clinic pairs this scalp specialism with a genuinely full-service offering. Hair, facials, nails, waxing and eye-enhancing treatments are all on the menu, and the team's own description sums up the ambition simply: exceptional care, expert knowledge and a renewed sense of confidence.
Every scalp journey at Janis starts the same way: with a 15-minute scalp test. It's a small step, but it means treatments are chosen for what your scalp actually needs rather than a one-size-fits-all wash.
The entry point is the Scalp Deep Cleansing, a 60-minute session that uses a vegan exfoliator and shampoo alongside a high-pressure machine to lift away dead skin, oil, dirt and product build-up. You lie flat on a massage bed while a therapist washes and massages your head — the clinic's own advice is to try not to fall asleep. For deeper replenishment, the 80-minute Scalp Collagen Treatment follows the same cleanse with machine-infused collagen to maintain the scalp's water and oil balance and keep it, in the clinic's words, healthy and young.
Where there's a specific problem, there are dedicated 90-minute programmes. The Dandruff Treatment sterilises, calms inflammation and dissolves stubborn flakes while promoting scalp circulation and metabolism. The Anti-Hair Loss Management programme supplements follicle nutrition, activates hair germinal cells and works to strengthen and thicken roots. And for sensitive scalps, the Eczema and Psoriasis Treatment repairs and rebalances, easing itching and redness while rebuilding the scalp's natural resistance.
One practical note: all of these are dry-off services — there's no wash-and-style finish, so plan your day accordingly.
Beyond the treatment rooms, this is a fully equipped salon. Cutting covers women's and men's cuts, fringe trims and kids' cuts for boys and girls under ten. Styling ranges from a wash and blow-dry to full hair-ups for events.
The colour menu is broad: regrowth touch-ups, global full colour for short, medium or long hair, partial, half and full highlights, toner and balayage, plus dedicated full-head and foil lightening services. Perm lovers are looked after too, with root volume and fringe perms, a classic perm, a digital perm for soft waves and permanent straightening for the opposite impulse.
Treatments lean on Kérastase, from a standalone in-salon treatment to the Caviar Ritual, alongside an amino repair option, a pre-softening service ahead of colour work, keratin smoothing and hair extensions for length and volume.
The facial menu follows the same treatment-room logic. A 40-minute Eye Treatment hydrates and illuminates tired eyes, while the Hydrating Facial works across face, neck and décolleté. The Chocolate Facial puts cocoa polyphenols to work on dullness and rough pores, and the Mummy Facial focuses on firming, contouring a V-shape and softening wrinkles.
For congested skin, the 90-minute Deep Clean Facial clears blackheads, whiteheads and oil and is designed to make a visible difference in a single session. The Golden Facial uses 99.99% 24k gold to improve sagging and detoxify, the Fillmed Velvet Skin Perfection Facial draws on French anti-ageing skincare for hydration, radiance and laxity, and the Whitening Facial targets pigmentation. There's also microneedling for acne scarring, which uses fine needles to stimulate collagen and elastin and smooth post-inflammatory scars.
Add nails, waxing and eye-enhancing services, plus a retail product range, and Janis works as a one-stop reset — whether you're in for a 15-minute scalp check or a 90-minute treatment programme. The clinic is at K13/28 Remuera Road, Newmarket, and bookings can be made by phone on 0278888683, through the Book Now page or via the contact form on the website.
