What’s Happening at Headspace This August: Davines, Teacher Love + Better Summer Hair
Austin summer is still doing what Austin summer does best: heat, humidity, pool days, and making your hair routine work a little harder than usual.
So for August at Headspace, we’ve got plenty happening to make that routine a little better.
Our OG Headspacer Regina is back and officially taking over as our Hottie of the Month, along with her favorite Davines product for keeping frizz in check. We’re giving Austin teachers some extra love before the school year gets going, there’s a little bonus waiting for anyone who needs a Davines restock, and we have a brand-new NOUNOU oil on the shelves that extension hotties are going to want to know about.
Basically, there are a lot of good reasons to come hang with us this month.
Meet Our Hottie of the Month: Regina
If you’ve been coming to Headspace since the early days, Regina might already be a familiar face.
She’s one of our OG Headspacers! After stepping away for a few life adventures, our girl is baaack, and these days you’ll find her at the front desk keeping things moving and making sure every hottie feels taken care of from the second they walk through the door.
A Texas girl through and through, Regina has always had a love for all things beauty and self-care. She also brings the kind of energy we love having around Headspace: warm, easy to talk to, and always ready to help.
She’s taking care of more than our hotties, too. If you’ve ever wondered who keeps all that Headspace greenery alive, including those giant fiddle leaf figs, Regina deserves some credit.
Outside the salon, she’s usually thrifting with her daughter, watching the latest true crime documentary, or finding room for yet another plant in her collection.
We’re so happy to have one of our originals back with us and even happier to give her the Hottie of the Month treatment.

✨ Favorite product: Davines LOVE Smoothing Perfector
Make sure you say hi to Regina the next time you’re at the front desk!
Regina’s Pick: Davines LOVE Smoothing Perfector
If your hair starts negotiating with the humidity before you’ve even made it out the door, Regina has a recommendation for you!
Davines LOVE Smoothing Perfector is 15% off all August at Headspace!
This leave-in smoothing cream is made for frizzy, coarse, or unruly hair that could use a little more control without piling on something heavy. It helps soften the hair, tame flyaways, make it easier to comb and style, and protect against heat up to 450°F.
In other words, it’s a very good product to have around when you’re trying to make a blowout survive an Austin summer.
We love it for:
💗 Frizzy or unruly hair that needs more control
💗 Coarse and wavy textures that want added softness
💗 Making blowouts easier to manage
💗 Taming flyaways without weighing hair down
💗 Protecting your hair before heat styling
How to use it:
Apply 2–6 pumps to towel-dried hair, focusing on the lengths and ends. Don’t rinse. Then blow-dry or style like usual.
Not sure how much your hair needs or where it fits into the products you already use? Ask your stylist at your next appointment and we’ll help you figure it out.
You can also stop by Headspace to grab Regina’s favorite while it’s 15% off all month long.
Running Low? August Is a Good Time to Restock
Shampoo bottle upside down in the shower? Conditioner getting dangerously close to empty? Been eyeing a styling product every time you’re at Headspace?
We’ve got you.
All August long, when you grab any two full-size Davines products at Headspace, you’ll get a complimentary Davines hair mask pouch to take home.
So yes, you can replace the shampoo + conditioner you were already about to run out of and get an extra dose of hair love while you’re at it.
Or use it as an excuse to finally ask your stylist about that product you keep seeing on the shelf.
We’re big on making sure the products you take home make sense for your actual hair and the amount of effort you realistically want to put into it. Tell us what you’re working with, what’s driving you nuts, what you already love, and what you wish were easier.
We’ll help you build the lineup from there.
A Little Extra Love for Our Teachers 🍎
If you know a teacher who deserves some TLC before the school year gets into full swing, send them our way.
All August long, teachers receive:
🍎 20% off salon services
🍎 A complimentary travel-size product
Between early mornings, lesson plans, classroom prep, after-school everything, and taking care of everyone else all day, we figured our teachers deserved a little time on the schedule that’s actually for them.
Come in for a haircut, refresh your color, get your hair ready for the school year, or spend an hour in the chair where nobody is asking you a question.
It’s a small way for us to say thank you to the teachers who do so much for our Austin community, and we can’t wait to take care of you this month.
Good Extensions Don’t Start With the Install
The finished hair might be the fun part to show off, but Gracie’s recent partial highlight + custom extension install is a good example of why we care just as much about the prep.
Before the first piece was installed, she prepped the extension hair with two Davines products that can also become part of your at-home extension routine!
First up was Davines Beautiful Things Restoring Leave-In Mask, used to give the hair added care and protection before it starts going through regular washing and heat styling.
Then she followed with the NEW Davines NOUNOU Oil to seal in softness, smooth the lengths, and start caring for the extension hair from the very first install.
That extra attention matters with extensions.
Extension hair doesn’t receive the same natural oils from your scalp as your own hair, so keeping the lengths hydrated and being intentional with your aftercare can make a big difference in how they feel between appointments.
And you don’t need an overflowing bathroom shelf to take good care of them.
A few products that make sense for your extensions, used consistently and correctly, will get you much further than buying everything and hoping for the best.
✨ Davines NOUNOU Oil is officially at Headspace now, so if you wear extensions, ask your stylist about working it into your home routine.
Your Hair Routine Can Change With the Season Too
If the products that were working perfectly a few months ago suddenly aren’t cutting it, there may not be anything wrong with them.
Your hair isn’t dealing with the exact same things year-round.
Right now in Austin, there’s humidity, sun, swimming, more frequent washing, sweat, heat styling, travel, and plenty of days spent throwing your hair up because it’s simply too hot.
That can change what your hair needs.
Maybe you need a little more help controlling frizz. Maybe your ends are feeling drier than usual. Maybe your extension aftercare could use an update. Or maybe you’ve realized you’ve been using the same shampoo forever and aren’t even sure it’s still the best fit.
That’s the kind of stuff we want you to ask us about while you’re here.
Your stylist already knows your hair, your color, your texture, and what services you’re getting. Let us help with the part that happens after you leave the salon too.
Sometimes one product swap really can make getting ready in the morning a whole lot easier.
Come Hang With Us at Headspace
There’s a lot happening at Headspace this August, whether you’re due for an appointment or simply need to refill the products disappearing from your shower.
