We've found the perfect place to escape amid the frenzy of the festive season. In the hushed, hallowed realms of Singapore's leading Korean head spas, expect your locks to be worshipped and nourished back to life. Here, every step of the Korean head spa journey is geared at pampering stressed heads.

Gone are rough and tumble shampoo aunties who use fingernails for added, ahem, exfoliation. Putting the spa' in Korean head spas, each treatment is designed to be as calming yet results-driven as possible. Every session begins with an analysis using a microscope, helping your therapist to ascertain the health of your scalp.

Is your scalp itchy and inflamed? Are your locks weighed down by product build-up, with clogged pores threatening potential hair growth? How often do you wash your hair and with what products? How late do you sleep and do you eat oily or spicy foods? These are just some questions your therapist may ask before determining a treatment plan. Prepare to be honest in this confessional portion of the treatment: your therapist just wants the best for your hair.

And that's where your job' ends as you kick back and welcome the pamper fest coming your way.

I've had my share of deeply relaxing head massages in my lifetime, but I was not prepared to melt into the head spa bed as I did at Jo:Hwa. To the uninitiated, a head spa may seem like a glorified head wash with heavy emphasis on the massage, but a trip to the Stamford Road-based salon proved it to be so much more.
