Our Afternoon at a Hair Spa
(Spoiler Alert: We Highly Recommend!)
After seeing hair spas pop up all over our social media pages this past year, we decided we absolutely had to try one. And we are so glad we did - it’s a special treat that should be repeated a few times a year!
We all know the best part of going to the hair salon is the heavenly massage you get while having your hair washed. The idea of a 90-minute massage dedicated solely to your scalp and head had us scrambling to the internet to find the nearest spa. After doing our research - which is so important with these kinds of things - we decided to go to O Spa.
O Spa is located on the city’s Near North Side and is a quick walk from Michigan Avenue. Perfect for a pre or post lunch activity! In fact, we had lunch before our appointment (which we would highly recommend since there’s a good chance your makeup will run a little during the treatment). We arrived, slipped on our spa slippers and headed to the treatment room!
We were thrilled that we could do the treatment together - it really made for a fun experience. Our technicians were so gentle and thorough and we really felt the TLC.
We really liked that only organic products were used- like tea tree and rosemary essential oils and a creamy avocado mask. This inspired us to find a homemade avocado mask that we could incorporate into our hair routine at home. This one looks nice and combines avocado with rosemary essential oils which is known to help with hair growth.
After we had been lathered and massaged, the technicians put on a steam cap to help open up our scalp. While we were steaming, we also got an arm, leg and foot massage! Dreamy. When the treatment was over, we were treated to a blowdry.
If you’re looking to take your hair health journey to the next level, we highly recommend a trip to a hair spa. You deserve it!
