About This Salon
Open since its recent launch, AURA Japanese Head Spa has quickly become a Pittsburgh favorite for its authentic approach to scalp therapy. The consensus seems to be that visitors particularly appreciate the mindful touch of the therapists and the noticeable difference in hair texture after treatments. Sessions begin with a scalp analysis, followed by deep cleansing and enzyme exfoliation. Steam therapy and Japanese massage techniques aim to stimulate circulation while maintaining a gentle approach. The salon offers two main services: a classic head spa and a longer session that includes facial massage with natural oils. Both treatments conclude with a basic blow-dry, leaving hair noticeably smoother. The space maintains a minimalist aesthetic with clean lines and natural materials. Located within Ross Park Mall, the wheelchair-accessible salon operates seven days a week with consistent business hours.

Booking Your Head Spa
Here are our tips to prepare for and fully enjoy your scalp treatment.
Book in Advance
Book 1 to 2 weeks in advance. Weekend slots sell out fast. And some scalp care specialists are in high demand, especially at reputable Japanese head spa salons.
Prepare for Your Visit
If you have concerns like itchy scalp, product buildup, or hair loss (alopecia), mention them when booking to customize your session.
Day of Your Session
Don't wash your hair the day of your appointment and arrive with brushed hair. Skip makeup as some treatments include a facial mask or kobido massage.
After Your Session
Enjoy a calm activity to extend the relaxing effects of your head massage. Note: blow-drying is usually not included. Allow extra time for long hair.
At-Home Care
Avoid washing your hair for 24-48 hours to let the treatment absorb. For a healthy scalp between sessions, ask your specialist which shampoo and hair care products to use at home.
Maintain Your Results
For lasting scalp health, consider regular treatments. Many clients book their next head spa before leaving to maintain their scalp care routine.
