In the heart of York, guests appreciate the tranquil escape offered by HQ Japanese Head Spa, where the bustle of the city fades away. The salon is conveniently situated at the bottom of Micklegate, with easy access from the Park and Ride. Visitors often highlight the friendly and professional demeanour of the staff, who ensure comfort and warmth throughout the treatments. The head spa experience begins with a soothing back and shoulder massage, followed by a meticulous head and hair massage involving multiple steps. A heated cap and calming, fragranced products enhance the relaxation, often lulling guests into a peaceful sleep. The treatment concludes with a bonding ritual that leaves hair noticeably softer, shinier, and lighter for days afterward.

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 and Indian head massage (champissage) salons.
Prepare for Your Visit
If you have concerns like itchy scalp, product buildup, or hair loss (alopecia), mention them when booking to customise 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.
