My Korean Head Spa expertise (this publish)

Once we determined we’d be visiting Korea, I knew I needed to benefit from some pores and skin or magnificence remedies.

I booked a last-minute appointment at Hair the Beau and had no clue what to anticipate.

Once I walked in, the principle stylist, Raon, launched herself and helped me get arrange with a locker. Then I used to be led to a sitting space to have my scalp scanned.

I gained’t publish the earlier than image right here, however let’s simply say my scalp was type of horrendous. Main as much as this appointment, I’d solely wash my hair as soon as per week.

She really useful the complete remedy for me and stated it might take about two hours.

The complete remedy:

She sat me down and one other stylist came visiting, they usually began brushing my hair. After it was absolutely brushed, they added an elixir to my total scalp, scrubbed it in, and put a bubbler machine over my head for 5 minutes.

She began engaged on my hair and truthfully, I just about transcended throughout this portion of the expertise. She washed my hair possibly six occasions, added a masks, extra elixirs, a peptide remedy, a cool waterfall rinse state of affairs, after which massaged my head and shoulders for what felt like 20 minutes. It was pure bliss. The scalp therapeutic massage is often my favourite a part of a therapeutic massage anyway, so this was next-level.

After the remedy, they led me to a styling chair and rescanned my scalp. I couldn’t imagine the distinction. It seemed so clear and wholesome.

Then they did a tandem blow dry and straighten on my hair,

and my hair felt the perfect it’s ever felt in my total life.
