About This Salon
At the corner of a quiet Metuchen street, Skin By Nicole offers a specialized approach to skin and scalp care. This by-appointment salon focuses on personalized treatments, with head spa services including exfoliation, light therapy, and Shirodhara. The latter, an ancient technique, involves a gentle stream of warm oil poured onto the forehead, a practice designed to calm the mind while nourishing the scalp. Feedback often highlights the salon's meticulous approach to skin and scalp health. Clients have noted visible improvements in texture and tone after treatments. The environment is kept clean with an electrostatic ionizer, ensuring a space free of airborne irritants. Accessibility is also a priority, with designated parking and restroom facilities. Open Tuesday through Friday, the salon's hours accommodate both daytime and evening visits. The setting is unassuming, but the attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the service.

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.
