Yu Head SPA & Wellness Center — Local services in Sandy

When you arrive they do a scan of your scalp to determine your scalp health and if anything may be impairing your hair form being it’s thickest or healthiest. Eric was so kind and gave me advice on how I can improve my hair care routine, sleep routine, and stress management. I could tell he really cared, because it was something that mattered to me! I had an AMAZING experience. I’ve been struggling with the curl in my hair practically disappearing. After one appointment, my hair curl is back and healthier than it’s been in years!! I have hair down to my waist and it has become increasingly damaged over the last year, due to stress!

Moving on to the actual treatment! They take you to a private room where you change. For 90 minutes you are massaged, neck, shoulders, and scalp. Various treatments are used that clean your scalp and make your hair incredibly soft and beautiful. Some light pressure points are done on the forehead, and steam is used to keep you relaxed. I’VE NEVER BEEN SO RELAXED IN MY LIFE. My mind was quiet for once, while still remaining awake. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough. I plan to go back often 🥰 this is perfect for anyone in your life that you’re looking to treat or for yourself. Highly recommend.

At the end, Eric will scan your scalp once more and the difference is unbelievable. I’ve since made all of the changes recommended to me and I’ve never felt better about my hair’s health. No more bad hair days. Everyone there was very nice...

This was my first experience with the Japanese head spa so I wasn't sure what to expect but I was excited to try. I found a Groupon and my sis in law and I decided to try it out. It was the 5 Bath Scalp Spa and steam treatment. It was easy to schedule. Eric greeted us. We started out with our blood pressure being taken followed by a scan of our roots. It was interesting to see what our scalps look like close up and the hair follicles. We were then taken to a room to put a dress like coverup on, that can be pulled off our shoulders as well as slides to slip on. They came in and began our treatment. They also put a warm eye mask on which felt lovely. When they work on you they will ask you about pressure, don't be afraid to tell them if it's too light or too soft. There seemed to be a slight language barrier, but it was still good. To me this is more of a renewing and refreshing of your scalp vs your hair being brushed and head being massaged/hair being played with. (I love my hair being played with/head being gently massaged, so it wasn't quite that) After we were finished we separated so that we could have our hair dried. Our therapists gave us a small snack and drink while they blow dried our hair for us. After we changed back, Eric again scanned our scalps again and showed us the difference from before and after. He spoke in depth about the importance of our scalp care and what we can do and use to keep it healthy and clean. It was def an...

I was hoping for a relaxing 90-minute scalp treatment, but this experience was anything but. The atmosphere was extremely noisy—loud conversations, blow dryers, clunky equipment, and water that sounded like a lawn mower made it impossible to relax. Instead of a calming spa service, it felt like a chaotic scalp car wash.

On top of that, the person performing my service left the room multiple times, allowing even more noise from the hallway and other rooms to flow in. The music was also extremely quiet, making it impossible to drown out the surrounding chaos.

To make matters worse, I later found out the same service was available on Groupon for $75, while I paid the full $120 price. I don’t fault the business for their pricing, but I do regret not checking beforehand—especially since the experience was so underwhelming. I was also surprised to be charged sales tax, which I’ve never had to pay on similar spa treatments elsewhere.

The only reason this isn’t a 1-star review is that my scalp does feel cleaner and my hair is soft. However, if you’re looking for a truly relaxing and gentle head spa experience, I’d recommend going elsewhere. In this case, you really do get what...
