About This Salon

Near the shoreline in Branford, this resort spa occupies a space where the interior's muted tones and natural textures evoke coastal serenity. The head spa treatments draw from both Eastern and Western traditions, with Shirodhara and Shirotchampi offered alongside light therapy and reflexology. Several people note the effectiveness of the steam treatments, which prepare the scalp for deeper exfoliation and aromatherapy applications. The Indian head massages incorporate a mindful touch that many find particularly soothing. Wheelchair accessibility is carefully considered throughout the facility, from parking to seating arrangements. Open six days a week, the spa maintains consistent hours for those seeking midweek relaxation. The treatment rooms feature adjustable lighting to complement therapies like light treatment.

Booking Your Head Spa

Here are our tips to prepare for and fully enjoy your scalp treatment.

1

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.

2

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.

3

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.

4

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.

5

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.

6

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.
