About This Salon

A few steps from Cyncoed's main thoroughfare, Thriv Salon offers Japanese head spa treatments in a space designed with Feng Shui principles. The salon's signature service begins with a scalp analysis using advanced dermascope technology, followed by a choice of detoxifying clay mask or purifying gel treatment. A sensory scalp massage with specialised tools leads into a bespoke shampoo treatment, while neck and décolleté massage techniques complement the experience. The treatment concludes with a waterfall rinse and medicinal herbal hair tea. From the feedback, clients appreciate the therapists' expertise in tailoring treatments to individual needs. The salon's commitment to sustainability is evident in its use of low-toxicity products and eco-friendly practices. Accessible seating is available, and the environment is consistently described as clean and welcoming. The Japanese head spa can be booked as a standalone service or combined with other treatments, though it does not include a blow-dry unless specifically added.

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 and Indian head massage (champissage) salons.

2

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.

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.
