Head Spa at Crystal Beauty Aesthetics

Head Spa at Crystal Beauty Aesthetics is an esthetician-led scalp and facial studio in Oxford, Connecticut, known for Japanese-inspired scalp treatments paired with facials.

The menu centers on scalp care combined with skin care. The Scalp Revival is a 55-minute Japanese-inspired scalp treatment with a mini facial and massage, from $175. The Scalp Spa Experience (Deluxe) adds a scalp detox, scalp and skin analysis, and a full facial with scalp massage using essential oils and natural herbs. Other options include:

• Glow: Scalp Spa + Jelly Experience, with a hydrating jelly mask, scalp head spa, cranial massage and facial
• Crystal's Facial + Scalp Ritual, with scalp cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, massage and head spa water therapy
• Botnia Mind & Scalp Renewal, with a microscope scalp analysis, detoxifying scalp treatment and lymphatic facial massage

The owner, Crystal, is a licensed esthetician who customizes each session to what your skin and scalp need that day. Her custom facials also include a dry scalp, neck and shoulder massage. The studio uses sound healing music to set a calm mood, and reviewers often describe the space as serene, clean and welcoming. They also mention feeling relaxed and refreshed afterward, including one guest with 4c hair who was pleased with her scalp treatment.

It suits people who want to treat scalp and skin in a single visit, and anyone who prefers a quiet, personal studio setting over a large salon. A deposit is required when booking.
