Why is head spa so popular?

Head spas have surged in popularity beyond just scalp care. The deep relaxation, stress relief, and better sleep keep people coming back regularly.

02

Japanese vs Korean head spa — what's different?

Seoul's head spas split into Japanese-style (delicate technique, set routine) and Korean-style (scalp diagnosis, customized care). Check each shop's style in our guide.

Seoul Head Spa — Pricing and How to Choose

Seoul head spas range from about 40,000 to 380,000 KRW. Start with a sub-100,000 KRW course if it's your first time. Choose AI scalp diagnosis if you're curious about your scalp condition.

First-Time Head Spa Guide
