You've probably seen countless videos of the viral Korean Head Spa on social media, showcasing divine head massages and a soothing waterfall hair bath that seemingly washes away all stress. If you're wondering where to experience this in Singapore, look no further than Suchewha by Ted, a serene salon on the second floor of 9 Penang Road.
The luxurious treatment consists of several steps crafted based on hair science and the latest in hair technology. First, a hair care specialist diagnoses your hair and scalp condition using a scalp scanner. They then customise the treatment based on your specific needs, offering plenty of tips on better hair care along the way. I was told that my scalp was “too clean” and that I should switch from a scalp-care shampoo to one that focuses on hair care to allow my scalp to regulate oil production better.
The general process includes an exfoliating mask that’s massaged onto your scalp to ensure it can absorb the products used in the subsequent steps. Next, your scalp undergoes a thorough deep cleanse, where mild electric currents – don’t worry, these gentle pulses don’t hurt – are applied to eliminate harmful bacteria and address issues like oily scalp and pimples. This is followed by a trip to the wash station, where you lie down for the signature waterfall bath accompanied by a relaxing hand massage.
To cap off the session, you're treated to a final head massage using a heated galvanic device to boost circulation and encourage hair growth. The entire experience, lasting about three hours and priced at $350, is a true pampering indulgence fit for a queen.
