Scalp Spa & Co

Scalp Spa & Co in Eldersburg, Maryland, is an appointment-only scalp spa known for its relaxing 75-minute scalp treatment.

The spa's 75-minute scalp treatment (from $120) starts with a gentle brushing of the scalp to loosen dead skin and improve circulation. A pre-shampoo exfoliation follows to help remove product build-up and impurities, then two shampoos and a deluxe mask. While the mask sits, you get a mini facial and a hand massage. The session ends with a hydrating conditioner, a scalp massage and a quick rough dry.

The spa's approach is to build on the best part of a salon visit, the shampoo, and make it deeply relaxing. Reviewers consistently praise Kara's gentle, attentive touch and the way the visit unfolds in layers. They often mention the scalp, arm and hand massage, and say their hair and skin felt soft and refreshed afterward.

It suits anyone who wants a slow, restorative break, especially if you carry tension or stress, or simply love having your hair washed and your scalp massaged. Gift certificates can be bought through the FAQ section of the website.
