A new approach to hair care is gaining attention because it shifts the focus from the hair to the scalp.

Several experts point out that healthy hair starts with the scalp. If the skin is clean and well cared for, the hair has better conditions to grow strong and look healthy.

The Japanese method, known as a head spa, is based on this idea.

According to the original article, the treatment involves both cleansing and care in a single process.

It removes oil, dirt, and residue from hair products while simultaneously nourishing the hair.

How to do it

Although the treatment is often performed in salons, it can also be done at home.

First, apply a scalp exfoliator and gently massage it in for a couple of minutes.

Then wash your hair with a mild shampoo, massaging the scalp in circular motions.

Finally, use a hair mask and leave it on for about 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing it out with lukewarm water.

The effect of the treatment

According to the outlet WP kobieta, regular use can lead to a healthier scalp and less greasy hair. It may also reduce irritation and dandruff.

At the same time, the hair often becomes softer, stronger, and more glossy. An additional benefit is that the treatment can have a relaxing effect.

The key point is not the hair washing itself, but thorough scalp care, as it significantly affects the appearance of the hair.
