Hi guys, welcome back to my channel
today we are doing a Japanese custom head spa in Tokyo
How did you know that
Please help
I'm on two days
You oh my eye like crying
We're steaming, we're cooking up
Good hair, hopefully
now you may think it's a simple process of hair washing and a head massage
But it is so much more than that
this multi-step two hour treatment
is like a facial for your scalp that promises a clean nourished head and
Softer shinier more luscious hair
its main purpose is to stimulate circulation
via a scalp massage of hitting specific pressure points by a trained therapist
and when done correctly not only is it extremely relaxing
but it also helps to balance your scalp
Whether it's oily or dry
and in doing so it aids and things like dandruff if you scalp
Hair thinning or hair loss
and even decreasing puffiness in the face
amongst many other things which you will see in this video
I'm also gonna share with you some things that you yourself can do at home
to assist in healthy hair growth
because of course doing these treatments once in a while may be beneficial
But what's more important is what you do on a regular basis
Having a good shampoo and conditioner
and a good technique can really make all the difference
So for that
I'm really happy to announce that today's video is sponsored by Function of Beauty
people have different needs for their scalps and hair
which is why function of beauty creates 100% customizable hair products
with no sulfates parabens
GMOs toxins or animal testing.
All you need to do is fill out a two-minute quiz on their website
this time I chose scalp nourishment is one of my five key points
because after doing this treatment
I realized just how important it is
and besides your preferences. You also get to choose your color
fragrance and the name on your bottle
I also grabbed a hair mask this time, which I customized to
Nourish strengthen hydrate and add shine to my hair

Alright, let's head back to Tokyo.
I made my way to the massage salon in the upscale neighborhood of Ginza
today I am going to this salon
It's called the Jacques Moisant Paris.
So it's actually a French name
It's a really famous hair salon from France
But here I heard they get trained in France to cut the hair and color the hair
But they also use Japanese products
and their head spa is Japanese
So I was told to take off my shoes put on slippers
take off my jewelry that I can take off
and put it away because I'm gonna be having a massage
and now I'm supposed to change into this robe
after getting changed and locking up my stuff.
I was shown to my private area
where I'd be getting my treatment from Okamoto san
I would describe my scalp is quite dry because
I kind of like it that way
Hong Kong is really humid
So your hair gets oily really quickly
and I don't like to put conditioner or hair mask on my scalp
I also tend to overload it with dry shampoo
because I hate washing my hair a lot
and honestly, I've been doing it all wrong
Until recently I didn't even know this type of treatment exists
until I saw it in a hair salon in Korea a few months ago
and now I wonder why it isn't super popular all around the world because
The idea behind taking great care of your scalp makes perfect sense.
I only really take care of the ends with mass and serums and oils
and that's the part that's already dead
Whereas Japanese people treat the part that's alive right at the roots
Am I the only person that didn't
How did you know that
constipation
constipation pills
whenever I travel it's like impossible
So it's like the Chinese foot massage
where points of the foot are connected to the whole body
So points of the head are connected to the whole body
Please help
I'm like two days
Then it was time to choose those three essential oils that I'd be using in the steamer
both in the air and on my hair
Okay sounds good
you can choose three essential oils
If you can read Japanese, you can read all the benefits
and what each one does for you.
so she recommended sandalwood for moisture
lavender for sort of overall distressing relaxing
and linlin to improve my health condition
seems to my stomach and digestion those problems. Okay
I'm excited
Wow, I didn't expect all of this to be happening
like I thought it's just some cleaning of the scalp relaxing
but now it's like a full body health treatment
I'm ready my scalp is tingling already
Then with the dimming of the lights
the retraction of the chair
the giant cloud of linlin lavender and sandalwood
Oh I can smell the serum it's so nice
The treatment started to look as heavenly as it was about to feel
Okamoto San began rinsing my hair with these waterfall like motions
which was really calming
and then she started shampooing my head and giving me a head massage
while focusing on key pressure points
and the point that I could really feel a strong release from
is right next to my eyes.
My eye like crying
But not not painful but like a some pressure release
They said that people that stares at a lot of screens
So like computers TV phone screens
build up a lot of pressure here
style massage continued with Okamoto san mixture of pushing and pulling techniques
and honestly I have never felt this deep level of relaxation before
it's totally different than a body massage
And I can't explain it
I just know that I was trying so hard not to fall asleep
and stay alert
and I did so by continuously talking
so that I wouldn't miss a second
because I wanted to feel everything
that was the best massage ever it was so good
brought tears to my eyes
then just when I thought my best moment were over
It happened again
I'm ready
What was that
that wasn't the cream massage?
that was the only shampoo
what?
massage shampoo
I thought that was the massage
My god I get another one
you have massage with a cream
Okamoto san one to specifically hydrate and nourish my scalp
and then chose another chose one for my hair.
Feels like I'm in a dream. There's like clouds
someone touching my head and there's
warm towel and warm cream and everything is warm
Then I was all wrapped up and hooked up to the steaming machine
which opens the hair follicles and scalp pores to fully absorb the creams nutrients
and also the moist heat encourages blood flow circulation
reduces fatigue and migraines and promotes hair growth
Oh that's what I looked like
looks like a chef
we are steaming
cooking up
some good hair hopefully
Once again, I thought my best moments were over
but then another massage began
Okamoto San massage my arms and my hands
she literally didn't waste one second
every full minute of the two hours was full of relaxation
She also really focused on this middle point of my forearm
you get a lot of stiffness there if you use your phone and computer a lot
so that felt really nice
And then I was rinsed again for the final time
and I was served a hot beverage of my choice
Should I get ginger?
normally I would get coffee
Then my hair was dried styled
and a nourishing serum was added to my ends
I asked Okamoto san if there was anything we could do at home
to take better care of our scalp
You should also make sure that the water is not too hot
because this will dry out your scalp and
Every time she added shampoo to my head she would lather it up
She would make it all foamy and bubbly
This ensures that you don't use too much shampoo
Which will strip your hair and strip your wallet
and then you'll be able to spread out the shampoo evenly throughout your hair
So you'll be able to do a really proper gentle cleanse
She also mentioned that scalp lotion is beneficial to those with dry itchy scalps
But if you don't want to buy a special lotion
you can also use the same one that used on your face
Because the skin on your face is the same as the skin on your scalp
which is why I really feel that this whole thing is very similar to a facial
and we do these multi-step cleansing and hydrating treatments for our face.
Why don't we show our scalp the same kind of love?
The end result was a clean balanced scalp and silky smooth shiny hair
This is me feeling it for the first time
and I will definitely be back
back in this change room
Just finished up my appointment
and oh my god, look at the shine. I feel rejuvenated
I feel rebalanced.
My skin problems are gone.
My digestion problems are gone and relaxed
my hair feels amazing
It is definitely shiny
Wow what experience
I highly recommend you try this at least once in your life
I know there are different salons outside of Tokyo
I remember reading about one in New York City
There's there's different Japanese hair salon all over the world
But if you do have the chance to come to Japan
and try it I highly recommend it
I also did my bangs a little bit differently
there's sides bang now kinda like this
To be sure of all this
when I got home I went in for a closer look with a microscope
take a look
It's so clean
Look there's no oil.
No flakies
the pores look really clear
My hair looked shiny
If you want a book this is that treatment or any other beauty treatment in Tokyo
I highly recommend going through Tokyo Beauty stars
