What is Head Spa?

Head Spa is a treatment that cleanses and massages the scalp using oils and shampoos. It creates a healthy foundation for hair growth by improving the scalp environment. Through careful massage of the deep scalp muscles, we improve blood circulation to ensure proper nutrient delivery to your hair. After the treatment, you'll feel refreshed with improved clarity of vision. We promise you'll be able to continue your journey in greater comfort.
Our salon offers international visitors the opportunity to experience "Head Spa," one of Japanese unique healing cultures.

Flow of our head spa menu

YAYOI HEAD SPA

① Oil Cleansing & Massage

We combine jojoba oil, known for its excellent skin compatibility, with aromatherapy oils suited to your preferences for scalp cleansing. Simultaneously, we massage the scalp to release impurities.

② Carbonated and Enzyme Cleansing

We thoroughly remove scalp impurities using carbonation and enzymes. The carbonation promotes blood circulation, effectively relieving stiffness. Enzymes break down and remove protein-based impurities that regular shampoo can't eliminate.

③ Massage Shampoo

We massage using gentle shampoo products. The creamy lather allows for thorough massage without stressing the scalp.

④ Honey Pack Massage

We massage the scalp using honey, which helps soften the scalp. Honey's moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties help maintain a healthy scalp environment.

⑤ Hair Treatment

After removing impurities to restore your hair to its natural state, we nourish it with hair treatment to improve its condition. Hair in its natural state efficiently absorbs hair repair ingredients. We use our carefully selected, premium-grade hair treatment that provides the most noticeable moisture and shine.

⑥ Scalp Toner

we apply and massage in a scalp toner that promotes blood circulation and moisturization.

⑦ Drying

We complete the treatment by drying and styling your hair.

※Caution※
The treatment area varies slightly depending on the location.

The "GRANDE" branch, located in the Katsura area near the popular tourist destination of "Arashiyama", features semi-private rooms; here, you receive a 360-degree scalp massage while seated before moving to the shampoo room for further scalp massage. At the "fairy" branch, located in the downtown Karasuma area, the entire process takes place in the shampoo room. While the "GRANDE" branch offers a more premium experience, the "fairy" branch is more conveniently located for a quick visit. Both offer excellent technical service, so please choose the one that best suits your preferences.

    よくあるご質問

    カットやカラーをしなくても予約できますか？

    もちろん可能です。その場合は、艶髪リラックスコースがおススメです。カット、カラーメニューをされると、ブロー代が無料になるので、そちらも合せて是非ご検討ください。

    頭皮が荒れているのですが艶髪ヘッドスパを受けても大丈夫でしょうか？

    自宅でシャンプーをして頭皮がしみるようでしたら、炎症が進んでいる可能性が高いので、まずは皮膚科への受診をおススメ致します。来店頂いて、同様の事が分かれば施術をお断りする可能性がありますのでご了承下さい。事前のご相談を、お電話か店舗予約LINEからいただけると、安心してご来店いただけるかと思います。

    ホットペッパーから予約したいのですが同じようなクーポンはありますか？

    ホットペッパーにも同様のクーポンがございます。ラインから、「ホットペッパーで予約したいです」とご連絡いただければ、ホットペッパーのクーポンについて返信させて頂きます。

    艶髪ヘッドスパだけ受けたい場合も来店可能ですか？

    もちろん可能です。３０分（３,０００円）のトライアルもご用意しております。単品でのご利用の場合、別途ブロー代２,０００円を頂戴しております。カット等とセットのコースの場合、このブロー代はかかりませんので、コースを選ばれる方が多いです。

    事前にご相談をしてから予約を考えたいのですが、どうすればよいでしょうか？

    予約ボタンを押して頂き、どの店舗でも構いませんので、専用ラインからご連絡いただければ幸いです。予約ボタンを押してもすぐに予約にはならず、ライン内でやり取りさせて頂いてからのご予約となりますので、ご安心ください。
