What is a
Japanese Head Spa?
The Japanese Head Spa isn't just a treatment. It's a deeply nurturing ritual that has been practiced and perfected for decades in Japan, blending ancient techniques with modern wellness science to create something truly transformative. It's where skincare meets haircare, where massage meets mindfulness, and where you walk out feeling not just refreshed... but realigned.
This experience is designed to detoxify your scalp, stimulate blood flow, melt away tension stored in the head, neck and shoulders, and promote radiant hair growth. It's for the overthinkers, the tension-holders, the tired mums, the burnt-out creatives, the men hiding their stress behind a short haircut, and anyone who just wants an hour to themselves where the world feels softer.
At HOSHINO DAY SPA & BEAUTY, we’ve created a cocoon-like sanctuary to deliver this treatment in the most authentic and peaceful way possible. Reclined in our Japanese spa chairs, soft music humming, warm water flowing gently across your scalp... it's not just about hair. It's about coming back to yourself.
What Happens During a Session?
Each session begins with a warm welcome and a brief check-in to see how you're feeling that day. From there, you're invited to lie down on one of our flat spa beds, completely supported and ready to let go.
The ritual includes gentle scalp cleansing and exfoliation, aromatic scalp massage, rhythmic water therapy, tension-release work across the neck and temples, and if you're booked in for our Signature or Ultimate package, even deeper facial massage, steaming, and longer rituals designed to pull you into a deep state of rest.
We finish with a nourishing treatment, your hair gently towel-dried, then we gift you a final moment of stillness with a soft scalp massage.
Packages
Our Japanese Head Spa treatments are offered in three beautifully curated packages, each one layered with purposeful steps and signature rituals to suit your time, needs and nervous system. Whether you're dipping your toes into the experience or looking to fully immerse yourself, there's a journey here just for you
🌿 Reset — 60 mins | $165
A complete reset for your scalp and senses. This is the new beginning of your head spa journey — gentle, intentional, and beautifully immersive.
As you settle into our heated spa bed, warmth packs are placed across your belly and cosy slippers slipped onto your feet to anchor you into rest. A calming scent marks the start of the ritual, followed by a delicate brushwork session using sensory tools that awaken the scalp and soothe the nervous system — think soft bristles, claw-like massagers, and a featherlight tickle across your forehead to ease you into a quieter state of mind.
We then begin a double scalp cleanse — bubbles are built into a satisfying ASMR foam and worked across the scalp with gentle yet stimulating pressure. A rotating electric scalp massager enhances the second cleanse, releasing even more tension. A detox herbal paste is then applied to refresh the scalp and clear buildup, followed by a nourishing conditioner to restore softness and shine.
Throughout, slow flowing massage techniques are layered in — from rhythmic scalp movements to a warm towel neck stretch and final towel-dry paired with a grounding massage at the base of the skull and shoulders. You’ll leave feeling polished, peaceful, and deeply reset — ready to re-enter the world feeling like yourself again.
🌸 ESCAPE — 90 mins | $240
Where scalp therapy meets facial renewal. This is for when you need more than just a pause — you need an exhale.
Everything from the Reset ritual is included — sensory grounding, double cleanse, detox treatment, rotating massager, conditioner and more — but here we extend the ritual with nourishing steam therapy and facial massage.
After the first half of your head ritual, a heated steam dome is lowered to envelop your hair and scalp in warmth. While your mask infuses, your face is cleansed and treated to a flowing massage that blends lymphatic drainage, facial sculpting, and stress-relieving strokes across the jaw, cheeks and temples. This facial work doesn’t just relax — it rejuvenates your glow from within.
Your session finishes with a conditioning rinse, warm towel-dry, and light neck and shoulder release to reawaken your body. Clients often describe this experience as being “half-facial, half-head spa — but fully transformative.”
🌙 INDULGENCE — 120 mins | $310
The ultimate nervous system reset — from head to toe.
This deluxe ritual begins with a warm herbal foot soak to calm your body and gently invite you into the experience. Once you’re on the bed, the full head spa journey unfolds: sensory tools, brushwork, double cleanse, detox paste, steam ritual, facial massage, and nourishing treatments for both scalp and skin.
The steam ritual is extended with an intensive hair mask, and while your hair steams beneath the dome, we deliver a blissful arm and hand massage followed by a deep release through your neck, shoulders and décolletage. Every touch is intentional — designed to encourage deep rest, circulation, and a return to centre.
You’ll rise from this treatment feeling not just pampered, but profoundly rebalanced. The Indulgence is for those craving a complete sanctuary experience — when your whole self needs to be seen, soothed, and softened.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will my hair be washed?
Yes, gently and thoroughly using nourishing Japanese-inspired products. The wash is part of the healing process—not rushed, not mechanical, but done with care and intention.
Q: Do I need to bring anything?
Nope… just come with dry hair and an open mind. We’ll take care of the rest.
Q: What if I have extensions or coloured hair?
Totally fine. Let us know beforehand and we’ll tailor the products and technique to protect your colour or bonds.
Q: Will I leave with wet hair?
We finish each head spa with a warm towel-dry and a calming scalp massage. Your hair will still be damp afterward — you're welcome to use our hairdryers to style it or simply let it dry naturally and enjoy that post-spa glow.
Q: Can I book this as a gift for someone?
Yes—and they will love you for it. We offer both physical and digital gift vouchers. It’s the perfect present for birthdays, mums-to-be, or that friend who says they "just need to chill."
Q: Is it just for women?
Not at all. Our Japanese Head Spa is for everyone — women, men, and all genders. Many of our guests come solo, while others enjoy it as a couple’s experience. Whether you're here to unwind, reset or simply treat yourself, you’re warmly welcome.
Q: Is a Japanese Head Spa safe for coloured or chemically treated hair?
Absolutely. We use gentle, herbal-based products designed to nourish and protect all hair types — including coloured, bleached, or chemically treated hair. Just let us know in advance so we can personalise your treatment.
Q: How often should I visit for a Head Spa?
Every 3–6 weeks is ideal to maintain scalp health, hydration, and that serene glow.
Q: What else will I benefit from besides relaxation?
Expect deeply nourished scalp and hair, reduced buildup, relief from itchiness, improved circulation, and ultimately stronger, more radiant strands.
Q: I have sensitive skin. Is this suitable for me?
Yes—our treatments are gentle. If you’re dealing with an active scalp condition, just let us know so we can adjust or advise the best timing.
Q: Does steam therapy really make a difference?
Absolutely. Steam helps open pores and hair fibres, so nourishing masks and treatments soak in better during your service.
Q: Is a Head Spa just a fancy head massage?
Not at all. It’s a full sensory experience—think aromatherapy, exfoliation, scalp and neck release, deep hydration, and inner calm all wrapped into one.
