The Head Spa

The Head Spa is a full-service spa in Dublin, Ohio, known for Japanese-inspired head spa treatments with scalp analysis, steam and a rainfall shower.

The Signature Experience (from $145, about 1 hour 15 minutes) is the spa's modern take on a traditional Japanese head spa. It starts with a microscope scalp analysis and consultation. Then come a dry oil scalp massage with high-frequency stimulation, exfoliation and steam, a deep cleanse, a neck and shoulder massage, a rainfall shower and a conditioning treatment chosen for your hair. There are also shorter and longer options, including an Express Experience, a Custom Experience paired with a facial, and a Grand Experience that adds a blow dry. A Gentleman's Experience is designed for men. Add-ons include blowouts, a scalp detox and an express facial.

Reviewers describe relaxing rooms and attentive providers who ask about individual needs and explain each step and the products they use. First-timers and couples booking together say they felt well looked after.

The spa suits anyone dealing with buildup, dryness, thinning or stress, and those who like to pair a head spa with a facial or massage in one visit.
