Roots Head Spa + Wellness Lounge

Roots Head Spa + Wellness Lounge is a Japanese-inspired head spa in Manchester, New Hampshire, known for private scalp detox and massage rituals.

Every ritual takes place in a private suite with a dedicated practitioner and starts with a personalized scalp analysis and consultation. The Signature Session is the usual first visit: 50 minutes, from $139, with an aromatherapy scalp detox cleanse, scalp and neck massage, a Halo Water Therapy rinse and a nourishing conditioning treatment. Longer rituals run up to 90 minutes. The Zen Ritual adds exfoliation, a vitamin infusion, steam therapy, sound therapy and a professional blow out. Other rituals focus on moisture for dry scalp or on thinning hair and buildup removal. Add-ons include a blow dry, a scalp vitamin treatment, a rosemary hair tonic and a steam facial towel. A separate menu is designed for men, including beard oil conditioning.

Reviewers describe the sessions as deeply relaxing and praise the calming massage and friendly practitioners. They also like seeing their scalp on camera before and after, the polished blowout and the easy online booking. The spa suits first-timers, anyone wanting stress relief, and guests with dry scalp, buildup or thinning concerns.
