About Hair Therapy by Janae
Hair Therapy by Janae is a Durham hair salon billed as Durham's newest head spa, run by stylist Janae, who describes her work as both art and ministry, and positions herself as a hair and scalp advocate. The salon's signature offering is its Head Spa service, combining scalp therapy, deep cleansing techniques, and pure relaxation, aimed at hair loss management and buildup management as well as general scalp health. Beyond the head spa, the salon offers bridal hair services for wedding parties and a full range of hair extensions, including weft extensions, clip-in extensions, textured curl extensions, and silky straight extensions, available in both standard and premium luxury options to match a variety of hair textures. Clients can book appointments online, browse a shop section for hair products, and sign up for an email newsletter for updates. Janae emphasizes the therapeutic nature of hairstyling, describing her approach as helping clients experience transformation on mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional levels, not simply a cosmetic service. She is also known as a dynamic educator skilled at teaching different learning styles, suggesting she offers instruction or mentorship alongside client services. The business maintains an active following on Facebook under hairtherapybyjanae and on Instagram as thahairtherapist, where much of its head spa and extension work is showcased. Prospective clients can find more details on the salon's FAQ page and can reach out through the site's contact and appointment booking tools to schedule head spa, bridal, or extension services.
Janae's path to hairstyling began in childhood, when a daycare provider asked what she wanted to be when she grew up and she confidently answered that she would become a hairdresser and a singer. She went on to earn both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Social Work and pursued music, but found herself unfulfilled by those paths. She eventually completed a natural hair care specialist program and then enrolled in Paul Mitchell's cosmetology night program, finishing in about eighteen months. She describes this decision to return to her childhood calling as transformative, and it led her to open Hair Therapy by Janae, where she combines technical skill with a philosophy that treats hairstyling as both art and ministry, focused on scalp health, hair loss management, and helping clients feel renewed through therapeutic head spa treatments and bridal styling.
