Wenatchee, WA.- The team at Elements Salon & Spa attended an in-depth training on  Davines Natural Tech product information on May 1-2.

Davines Natural Tech was conceived as intensive, therapeutic treatments that counteract and correct common hair and scalp ailments. Combined were aromatherapy principles with biotechnology to optimize the effectiveness of natural, active ingredients. The result is a complete methodology with formulations that alleviate the imbalance of stressed scalps, creating an optimal environment for healthy hair. Treatment solutions include thinning hair or hair loss, dry scalp, sensitive scalp, and dandruff. In the creation of Natural Tech, Davines remained true the concept of sustainable development, using new technologies with proven increased safety for both man and environment.

“The team at Elements Salon & Spa is excited for the changes to this system and can’t wait to prescribe and use the products on clients that may see benefit,” explained Stylist Trisha Heinold.

In 2006, owner Valda Sarty and Elements Salon & Spa team members traveled to Parma, Italy to meet with the owners of the Davines hair care line. During this business trip, they received a VIP tour, extensive education and product knowledge, and an in-depth insider understanding of the company’s commitment to the environment and eco-awareness. The team left having formed a personal relationship with the line’s creators and a partnership that has provided pre-eminent information and education that has brought direct benefit to Elements Salon & Spa clients.
