Highlights
About This Salon
Run by therapists trained in Japanese techniques, The Head Spa North East offers specialised treatments in a clean, welcoming environment. Visitors consistently note the compassionate approach, particularly praising the gentle manner that puts even the most anxious clients at ease. The experience often begins with a thorough consultation, where therapists take time to understand individual concerns, from scalp conditions to hair health goals. The treatments themselves unfold with careful attention, blending deep cleansing with soothing massage techniques. Many leave feeling not just relaxed but also informed, as therapists share tailored advice for at-home care. The salon’s hours cater to midweek visits, with limited Saturday availability. While the space may be unassuming, the focus remains on the meticulous care that keeps clients returning. Several reviews mention the lasting softness of hair and a sense of calm that extends well beyond the session.

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.
