My Korean Head Spa expertise (this publish)

After we determined we’d be visiting Korea, I knew I needed to make the most of some pores and skin or magnificence remedies. Whereas it might’ve been straightforward to go WILD, I didn’t need to miss out on adventures with the fam. I figured a head spa appointment can be good as a result of it might solely take an hour or so, there have been tons of places near our resort, they usually all had superb critiques.

I booked a last-minute appointment at Hair the Beau and had no clue what to anticipate.

After I walked in, the primary stylist, Raon, launched herself and helped me get arrange with a locker. Then I used to be led to a sitting space to have my scalp scanned.

I gained’t publish the earlier than image right here, however let’s simply say my scalp was form of horrendous. Main as much as this appointment, I might solely wash my hair as soon as per week. My hair can get actually dry, and I felt like washing it much less helped forestall dryness. My hair didn’t get greasy, and it could maintain a curl or type for a very long time, so I didn’t actually see a necessity to scrub it extra typically. I believed it was higher for me?

Seems, the bottom of my hair follicles had tons of buildup from grime and lifeless pores and skin. I actually felt ILL when she scanned my scalp and the picture was projected onto a tiny display screen in actual time.

She beneficial the complete remedy for me and stated it might take about two hours. I informed her I solely had an hour or so, and he or she stated they may end every little thing in an hour and quarter-hour, which labored for me. (The Pilot and the kiddos have been off to a petting zoo, so I figured they’d be entertained for a bit.)

She additionally defined that my hair would price further as a result of it was so lengthy. I had no clue what I used to be getting myself into, however I made a decision to belief the method and the superb critiques I’d learn on-line.

The total remedy:

She sat me down and one other stylist came visiting, they usually began brushing my hair. After it was totally brushed, they added an elixir to my whole scalp, scrubbed it in, and put a bubbler machine over my head for 5 minutes. I’m not precisely certain what the bubbler machine did, however I can guarantee you that Korea resides sooner or later.

After that, it was time to go to a separate room, which is the place nearly all of the remedy happened. The shampoo bowl had a chair that was additionally a full-body massager, and it felt heavenly.

She began engaged on my hair and actually, I just about transcended throughout this portion of the expertise. She washed my hair possibly six occasions, added a masks, extra elixirs, a peptide remedy, a cool waterfall rinse scenario, after which massaged my head and shoulders for what felt like 20 minutes. It was pure bliss. The scalp therapeutic massage is normally my favourite a part of a therapeutic massage anyway, so this was next-level.

After the remedy, they led me to a styling chair and rescanned my scalp. I couldn’t imagine the distinction. It seemed so clear and wholesome.

Then they did a tandem blow dry and straighten on my hair,

and my hair felt the perfect it’s ever felt in my whole life.
