    Got a head spa, facial, and body massage. The people who worked there don't know a lot of English. So it can be hard to communicate. I got the body massage first. It was pretty good. I got my back, neck, and leg massage. However some of the massage was not comfortable, like she was massaging my spine (bone area) and it hurt. My friend said her person didn't even massage her legs. The head spa with facial was ok. I went to a head spa one in Korea and it was not like that. There was no steps of how what they're doing. Even the facial was like goop putting it on your face then washing it off a couple of times. When you're lying on the chair, it's a massage chair. The massage doesn't have settings for softer or harder massage. When they dried my hair, my person who did everything for me just blowed dry my hair and it wasn't a good hair dry. No comb to style or anything.

    Found this place through Groupon and was so happy that this was my first head spa experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming and professional, the atmosphere was very clean and calming. Parking was easy and open (shared lot with the supermarket and plaza) which was a nice plus. I was taken care of by Teresa, and she did an amazing job. The full-body massage chair/bed was already incredibly relaxing, but the head massage took it to the next level--I was basically asleep and in full relaxation mode. She started with a facial and face mask, then moved on to the head massage, shampoo, and treatments, all of which felt so thorough and soothing. I was originally scheduled for a body massage, but I believe the room was double-booked. Instead, I received a shoulder massage along with a more detailed scalp analysis and treatment using their scalp machine, which I actually really appreciated. Teresa took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable the entire time, even offered what I could buy to improve my hair growth/dry scalp~ Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely come back. Highly recommend if you're looking to try a head spa for the first time or just want a deeply relaxing experience.

    First time getting a scalp treatment with scrapping, facial massage, and hair treatment and I am amazed . Kery, who helped me out, did an amazing job; she was attentive, professional, and incredibly hands-on! Walking away feeling refreshed and a weight off my shoulders, and the scalping did help since I was super red from all the tension and pressure buildup. The ambiance was super modern and very inviting. Highly recommend Kery!

    My husband and I had appointments for a massage and the head spa. My service was relaxing, kinda felt the woman who did my hair didn't really know how to dry it, so I had to finish drying it at home. Staff is very nice. My husband didn't quite enjoy his massage due to communication with his masseuse.

    Really enjoyed my experience here. My friend gifted me a massage, and so I had to take full advantage. I ended up getting the Swedish massage. She also used hot stones. She didn't ask whether I wanted that massage with the stones or the deep tissue massage, but I'm not mad at it. I felt very relaxed and rejuvenated afterwards. The space is very calming and the workers are welcoming. Even with me showing up 15 minutes late, they were super accommodating and it didn't take away from my total time. I did call of course to inform them of my tardiness, but the worker who answered assured me it was okay and there was no rush. I really wish more people were like that. I will be coming back, as I want to try their scalp massage!

    The machine for the scalp analysis and gua sha
    Eli C.

    Such a scam. I found this place on Groupon, and this was my first and last visit. They never explained the scalp analysis or the picture they took at the beginning. The service was extremely minimal--just shampoo and conditioner, then they turned on a face mist and that was it. There was no crown shower like the one shown in the Groupon photos. Afterward, they simply blow-dried my hair with no styling. I've been to other places where styling is included, but when I asked here, they said it would be an extra charge. I was supposed to choose between a gua sha or a facial; I chose gua sha, but nothing was explained, and it was done using a machine rather than the hands-on. They also advertise a neck and shoulder massage, which I never received. Overall, it felt like I paid a lot just for someone to wash my hair. Very misleading and disappointing experience. I would not recommend this place. Forgot to mention, I had asked for 90 min and only received an hour and maybe 10 min. So I got a "discount"

    Honest Review: I came back for head spa! We booked 90mins headspa (with 30mins body massage) and here's how it went: -Settle down: We arrived at 5:05pm for 5pm appoinment and got the service around 5:18pm, what upset me a bit is I couldn't get my sister to be the same room with me, but I understand since it's Saturday but hopefully the front desk can arrange it better when they see (2-3 people booking, assume that they want to be arranged to be in the same room). What this spa can do better is have a sign of (Available/Not available) so they don't keep opening checking the room to see if there's anyone inside, the first 15' service I had prob 5-7 times the door keep open and they poked their head in to check and close (and sometimes they dont close the door) my therapist had to go close it 2-3 times bc of it. - Service: The headpsa is 100% worth it! I went to many headspa places before and all they did was below average but this place actually follows step to step and made me feel comfortable! So I would say they're specialized in headpsa and not massage - Ambiance: Nice, clean and aesthetic! It has luxury feelings when you sit and they check on your scalp, we had language barrier so she didnt say much and just say it's good haha, maybe because my scalp was actually good, my sister in the other hand didn't get her scalp check before she went in. In overall, I will definitely come back for the headspa but body massage not so much because I felt like they didn't have much technique for body massage

    Omg just look at that difference between my build up and my clean scalp. I got the combo with massage and head spa. The massage was so relaxing with the perfect pressure and the head spa was so relaxing. I didn't want it to end. If you ever go, ask for Coco. She is the best!

    Service Requested: 90 minute luxury head spa treatment with massage on neck, shoulders, head and scalp with one enhancement. Was able to call and make an appointment in English without issue, they also price match Groupon. Vibe: Very clean and new facility (boss lady mentioned it's only been open for a couple of months), bougie. Quality: Robe and indoor sandals are provided. Most of the masseurs and masseuses spoke mandarin. After getting changed, I was brought back out of the room for scalp analysis. Thorough hair washing. It felt very fancy to be sitting in a massage chair while getting hair washing. The weather was quite warm outside so I do wish the A/C was stronger. The blanket laid on my leg and the eye cover made me feel even warmer and I was sweating a little bit while in the massage chair. I think because the eye cover is heated by exposure to oxygen so because nothing else was covering it, it got really hot. After the hair washing, I was directed back outside for a thorough Dyson hair drying process and machine operated cupping. Overall, everyone was really nice and everything was really clean and new. Great place to treat yourself to hair-washing.

    I have been wanting to go to a scalp spa since it seems to be the latest craze these days. Couldn't really find anything in my area (Pomona/La Verne)that was worth trying that wouldn't break the bank. I stumbled across Briar on Groupon and decided to check out the Yelp reviews. I was immediately impressed with the 5 star rating and the wonderful reviews. That was enough for me, so I purchased the 90 minute scalp treatment for 2 on Groupon. I called Thursday morning (4/3/25) to see if there was anything available for 2 and we were able to get a same day appointment. We were also told that they will match the Groupon price but we had already purchased it. But this is good to know. The spa is tucked away in the northwest corner of Valley and New in the Seafood City/CVS shopping mall. As soon as we entered we were greeted by Mary. The Spa was beautifully decorated and the equipment used was very high tech and state or the art. My daughter and I were asked to sit in the salon chairs while our scalps were analyzed. Very interesting to see your scalp up close along with the areas of concern. I had minor build up in a couple of areas on my scalp. Other clients report in their reviews being told by technician they showed signs of buildup , of stress, dryness etc. We were not but it could be because our scalps did not reflect other symptoms. Shortly after the assessment, we were taken into a room and asked to put the wrap around robe and sit in the massage chair and then asked to lay down so they can put a warm eye mask on and pamper you with m a full body massage while laying in the massage bed. I was not expecting anything other than the scalp treatment so we were pleasantly surprised. The scalp treatment was a full hour followed by a 30 minute mini facial or extended massage with Gua Sha. We chose the extended massage. Once again this did not disappoint. After the massage we remained in the chair to have our hair blown out. Whatever product was used in the treatment left my hair silky and smooth! Only thing I wish they would have done was give a sample of what was used during the treatment or given us the opportunity to purchase some or all of the products! Aside from that the service was AMAZING! Briar spares no expense in giving you a high end luxurious experience. I would give it 10 stars if I could! I will definitely be telling all my friends about Briar and returning any chance I get!

    In one of the rooms that they do the scalp & shampooing treatment. Very aesthetic.

    Enjoyed the experience!! It was my first time coming here, the man does a wonderful job at styling your hair. I recommend asking for him. The only thing was the language barrier with some of the employees there but we made it work with google translation Everyone is very kind & makes sure that your experience is very relaxing.

    I was not told that this would happen to me after their "massage"

    A massage was included in my package. The lady helping me gave no explanation as to what she was doing. She gave me a "massage" and never explained to me that this could bruise or mark up my back. I came in with my sister and my sister in law and I was the only one who left with their entire back bruised. Definitely disappointed

    I had a great experience! You get to lie on their massage bed, which massages throughout your head spa treatment. The scalp treatment left my head feeling super clean, and my hair looked noticeably better afterward. They show you pictures of scalp before and after the treatment so you can see the direct results! I actually fell asleep during the head spa hehe it was that relaxing. The shoulder and back Gua Sha massage was really nice too. They use their hand + a suction machine that relieved a lot of tension, and I felt completely refreshed and relaxed afterward. The suction machine seemed to have intensity levels so let them know which level is comfortable for you. It's a new place, only about 6 months old, and they accepted my walk-in without any issues. I left a 30% tip to show my appreciation. Would definitely recommend!

It was about 3:30pm when I came in, and no one else was there, which I Iliked since that allowed Ched to take his time with my hair. However, no sooner I did a check in and got into the chair for shampooing, three other women decided to show up and wanting their hair done too, lol! Hahaha, I brought Ched extra business on a slow Friday afternoon ;) Ched gave me a great scalp massage while shampooing my hair. After he applied conditioner, it got slippery and water sprayed all over. Luckily, I I wasn't soaked, and Ched was very apologetic from beginning to end, how sweet! :) Even though 3 women came in, Ched took his time with me, and didn't rush through. He asked me how I wanted my part, and covered up my lil hole on my top crown. He made my curls tight since my hair was baby fine and topped it off with Suave brand gel hairspray. My curls were awesome, and they held nicely throughout my friend's bday party. Best of all, when I came home and brushed it out before showering, it still looked amazing! *Sighs* had to brush it out otherwise, it'll look like a rat's nest in the morning, lol! The wash and curl took no more than 25 mins to do. Cost was $20 (not including tip). My curls were tight and intact with my baby fine hair. I did notice that unlike Drybar, Ched doesn't put mousse in there first, so some parts of curls were crunchy, but thank goodness not fried. However, my curls held up nicely, and so I was happy :) Located in the same plaza as Game Stop, Arby's and 99 Ranch Market in Alhambra. I would definitely come by again for a hair cut or wash and curl again, yay! :)
