What is a Japanese Head spa?

A Japanese head spa is a luxurious treatment that goes beyond the typical scalp care, offering a holistic experience aimed at both physical and mental relaxation. The process typically begins with a thorough cleansing to detoxify the scalp, removing impurities and excess oil buildup. This is followed by a nourishing treatment, often involving the application of essential oils or specialized serums designed to rejuvenate and hydrate the scalp. The highlight of the experience is the massage, which is tailored to stimulate blood circulation, promoting healthier hair growth and relieving tension.
