Japanese head spa? Anyone tried one?

[Crocja]

Has anyone tried Japanese head spa and would you recommend it for relaxation and for trying to relax and unwind?

I am very stressed lately. My work is very demanding and I live with a parent that is showing issues and I suspect cognitive decline but doctors are scumbags who won't help with a diagnosis until there's a crisis with her. This isn't just one or two things that emerged in a few weeks it months. I ahev five years of observations and experiencing some problematic behaviours.

I know a Japanese head spa won't get rid of my problems but wondering will it help. There is a salon in my city with some slots for Saturday and I am really tempted.

I haven't but would love to have one. I love head massage especially Indian head massage and although this looks gentler I think I would love it

I am due for a stressful week next week in work and I am not looking forward to it and I don't kniw if I should try and treat myself before the intensity of it all.

I’ve had one. I enjoyed it but parts of it are a bit weird if I’m being honest. I couldn’t fully relax because I kept getting surprised by the sounds and sensations I experienced. Now I’ve had one, I would do it again if it wasn’t so expensive! TBH, I found it more relaxing having a full pedicure a couple of weeks ago where I was in a really nice space, relaxing music, nice smelling candle and a therapist that didn’t talk incessantly! I had a lovely coffee, read some of my book on my phone and came out with soft feet and freshly painted nails.

Is it like the Korean ones where they show you your scalp on a giant screen?

I’m dying to try one, I love having my head touched and it just looks so relaxing.

I had one, I didn't love it, kept feeling like water was going to go all over my face. Much prefer a massage, hope you find what's right for you! 😊

I had one as well and really wasn't particularly impressed. It was like a really drawn out hair wash with loads of water basically whooshing around for the whole session. Much prefer a massage tbh. Sorry 😞

Thank you for all of your replies and honest reviews. I live getting my scrap massaged at the basin from my hairdresser. Love it, love it, love it. But I will tske your honest replies and I don't think I will book one. I might another time but not right now when my goal is needed relaxation. Looking at videos online and I think many of you are right. I might find the water jet ticklish.

I will look for a head massage or facial instead.
