What Is a Korean Head Spa?

Your scalp is a continuation of your facial skin. Think of it as the soil where your hair takes root, a part of your skincare routine that deserves gentle attention.

A Korean head spa combines scalp cleansing, gentle massage and time to unwind. The steps vary from spa to spa, with an emphasis on scalp care and relaxation.

At MOWONJAE in Bukchon, Seoul, your session begins with a consultation and scalp check. Your ritual includes cleansing, aromatherapy, a gentle scalp massage and a soothing head bath.

Beyond freshly cleansed hair and scalp, you may notice a feeling of lightness in your body and a clearer head, the sense of refreshment you might associate with a full-body massage. Each person's experience is different.

Our private space welcomes one guest at a time. Choose a 60- or 80-minute ritual and enjoy a quiet pause in your Seoul journey.
