Beauty By K Salon & Head Spa

Beauty By K Salon & Head Spa is a Japanese-inspired head spa in Grand Rapids, Michigan, known for relaxing scalp massage and personalized care.

Every visit begins with a scalp consultation, with the scalp examined at 500X magnification so products can be matched to your needs. The Relaxation Head Spa (50 minutes, from $125) includes a scalp massage, gentle exfoliation, a custom mask or scrub, shampoo and conditioner, and a light blow-dry. The Deluxe Head Spa adds a mini facial with Korean skincare. The menu also includes a waterless Dry Head Spa and a 120-minute Signature Head Spa with a neck and shoulder massage and red light therapy. Services are performed by licensed cosmetologists using Oway products, and the spa also offers personalized scalp treatments for concerns such as dandruff, eczema and psoriasis.

Reviewers praise the calm, clean, high-end studio, the gentle hands, and the way each step is explained, including before-and-after images of the scalp. Many mention hair that feels soft and clean afterward.

The spa suits first-timers, couples and friends booking together, and anyone who wants a long, soothing scalp massage. Note that services can't be performed on hair with extensions, braids, locs or tinsel.
