My wife and I loved our visit to Elegant Head Spa. We would love to come back again soon. We were able to make a last minute appointment and squeeze in an hour couples massage before lunch. So glad we did! Best massage I've had in years. The employees are very kind and welcoming. The place is clean and very well kept. Pricing is very fair. And being able to accommodate us so last minute was icing on the cake. read more

This is a very elegant massage spot and sure it's a little bit on the higher price than your average Chinese massage place but they have the feel of luxury right when you step in and also the floor makes you feel like your luxury but anyways the massage was great they were very well skilled definitely above your average in terms of Elegant, relaxing massage spot with a luxury feel the moment you walk in. It's a bit pricier than your average Chinese massage place, but the atmosphere and quality make it feel worth it. The massage itself was great -- very skilled technique, deep pressure, and focused work exactly where I needed it. I get massages regularly, so I really appreciated how well they listened and adjusted to my problem areas. Their English was also great, so communication was easy. read more

I would give them 10 stars if I could This was AMAZING. Hannah & May are incredible!! My friend and I made an appointment online for 10:30am on a Sunday for couples gold relaxation head spa therapy. They were waiting for us as soon we arrived and took us back to some massage chairs where they gave us slippers and offered us drinks. After only a minute or two they were ready to take us to our room. First the check the scalp with a camera, then have you change and lay down. Everything after that was pure bliss: neck and shoulder massage, head massage, the best hair wash I've ever received, massaging my arms and legs, then drying the hair, checking the scalp again and doing a few other treatments. They brought us some hot tea once they were done. I wish I could come every day read more

My experience here was awesome!! I got the Swedish massage and it was exactly what I needed. They took care of me from head to toe although I wish they would also do my front shoulders. For the price, they really make you feel comforted and relaxed. The waiting area has drinks and massage chairs which was such a nice way to start the session. The room is dimly lit and really cute and I appreciated that the bed is heated and comfortable. My masseuse put a good amount of pressure on my back and helped work on my knots. Front staff was also really helpful and street parking up front was easy! read more

Such a great experience and Jenny is so sweet and friendly! Definitely recommend this local spot. It is clean and relaxing. I got the scalp soothing therapy and will be returning soon! read more

I called in to make an appointment and let the front desk lady know that I found this place on spa finder to which she responded "oh yes we do take spafinder gift cards but only up to $50." This was fine by me. When it was time to check out, they told me that they don't accept spa finder gift cards on weekends-- only Mondays-Fridays. I felt like this could have been mentioned when I was making the appointment. So we ended up paying $98 each for scalp treatments. Pros: - beautiful inside -clean - equipment is updated -drinks and massage chairs in the waiting room - was able to get a private room (I booked for 2) -my hair was extremely soft after! -technicians checked in on how I was doing often and even put a blanket over me since I was cold! Cons: - the gloves that the technicians wore tugged on my hair quite a bit during treatment so I wasn't able to fully relax -technician was also having a conversation with someone during my appointment :( - the technicians didn't seem that skilled during the massage portions - there was little to no explanation of what was happening during the entire process. My scalp was shown through a camera and then I went straight into treatment. And at the end I was quickly shown my scalp again and then some kind of comb was put through (not sure what it does because no explanation) For the price I expected a little more out of it. Unfortunately this felt like an expensive hair wash. read more

I came here for my Birthday, excited from what I read in the reviews and really happy I made arrangements to get the specialist I read about. We scheduled the deep tissue message with the ELEUX head spa therapy. My booking was with Amb and Jenny. I was a little surprised after they walked got undressed and on the table. Two therapist walked in and introduced themselves as Rose and Vicky. I questioned but they acted as if they need not understand me. Already on the table we went forward. I think Rose whom was my therapist must have been training, she kept talking to the other therapist. Even though they tried to whisper it was still distracting. Rose was not my cup a tea. She just pushes, there was no actual message until the hot stones which was a nice surprise. She has a strong push so if pushing is your thing she may be for you. I wanted a deep tissue massage and I did not get it so this was the loss of the two stars. A note the massage is on your back and 40 mins. Vicky was my friends therapist and she raved how good she was. She stated she really get's in there "No pain No Gain" she will get those knots out. When we were walked into the head spa we met Jenny and Amb. I got Jenny and my friend go Amb. Finally the people we ensured to book our full appointments with! Jenny could tell I was not pleased with my massage. She stated if I was to come back she would do the entire thing. We both must have enjoyed the head spa part as we both fell asleep. So we don't have much to share. The eye mask is warm which is really pleasant. The hair mask part is also warm. I was really relaxing. Jenny stated I don't sleep well and I stated yes I have not been sleeping well. She pressed my temples and I was out. This is a good place if you have the expectations on what to expect. It is open aspect so you will never be alone unless you show up and they are slow. You can hear everything as it is open. They are very very friendly and nice. Welcoming and I would maybe go again. read more

I really enjoyed my massage and scalp therapy session. It was very relaxing. Ella was very nice and professional. She knew how to take care of my curly hair. The massage was very good as well. The space was cery clean and quiet. It was a little hard to find at first but it is the white door next to the covered windows. read more

This new head spa place just opened up in South Pasadena, and I saw their advertising on Instagram so thought I'd give it a try. Let me warn you, this is going to be a novel of a review, so grab your tea, sit back, and see what I experienced, you won't want to miss it! I made an appointment on instagram, specifying what I wanted and when. It seemed fast and easy enough. The day came, I received a confirmation message saying they can't wait to see me at 3:00. Mind you, I made the appointment for 3:30 and won't be able to make it at the time they said. I even sent the screen shot of the initial confirmed time. They were able to accommodate, thank goodness. When I got into the place the first thing I noticed was how aesthetically pleasing, new, and clean it was. Great! When I got to the front desk at 3:20 (10 minutes before my appointment time) a lady came out from the massage area and asked if I had an appointment. Before I go on, I need to mention this, the ENTIRE staff speaks Mandarin as their main language. I gave her my name and appointment time. She didn't know what massage/package I wanted even though they texted me half an hour earlier to confirm my arrival. I wished the staff communicated better with each other and have just one person at the front desk in charge of just booking and guiding the customer through the process and expectations. I mean, I've been to scalp massage places before, but never have I been led to the back and asked to be sat on a massage chair, which by the way had all their buttons in Chinese. She proceeded to set the timer on for 15 minutes and left me to my own devices, literally. My neck is very short and so instead of massaging my upper shoulders, the machine knobs kept circling the base of my head, which was quite uncomfortable and I didn't know how to change that! There was no one around for me to ask. So as I sat there waiting for the 15 minutes to pass, wondering if this was going to cut into my 70 minute scalp massage treatment (spoiler alert, it didn't, again thank goodness). When the 15 minutes were up, the massaging chair stopped, and my head was no longer bobbing back and forth, I sat there for another few minutes wondering if I should get up and say something or sit there like an idiot not knowing what was going to happen next. I decided on the latter. Finally someone came (who happens to be my head spa masseuse) and asked if I could wait 25 minutes before she can start on me. Umm, no. First off, my appt is at 3:30, 70 minute spa would make the appt end at 4:40 and I set it at that time since I need to pick my daughter up at 5pm. So I told her no, I can't do that. She said ok, that's fine she will start working on me. This is getting long, follow for part 2. Haha jk but seriously, other than my masseuse giving me the 70 minutes I paid for and explained my scalp condition to me in the beginning and end, the whole hair washing was okay. She was quite strong in massaging my head that I had to ask her to go softer. I expected a facial massage and cleanser or some type of face treatment too (like how other places do) but she didn't touch my face at all, other than the heated eye pads that were too hot and I had to ask to remove (in her defense, she did warn me prior to putting it on). Again, wished someone told me the whole process of what to expect every step of the way before it was done. The shampooing and massaging of the neck and body was okay. There was a lot of repetitive motions. Half an hour into my massage, someone brought their kid in and was talking in Mandarin the entire time. It was difficult to relax. The only positive? I did like the scent of the conditioner they used. I think that was the highlight. This place has a lot of potential as it was a nice setting with individual rooms and calming scents and I wish them all the best. But for now, it's not a place for me. Please work on staff communication and explaining to customers what to expect. Maintain a quiet atmosphere and diversify the massage and shampooing techniques. I tipped my masseuse well knowing how much time she spent on me. Hopefully management sees this and improve form future customers. Thanks for sticking to the end! Enjoy your day :) read more

I purchased this gift certificate from the sales rep named Mark when I tried to book an appointment they said it was expired but clearly gift certificate does not have an expiration date they asked for proof, said they would show the owner and get back to me they clearly can't communicate. read more

My fiance and I went in for a celebratory pampering. The head spa experience was transcendent and the two technicians, Jenny and Amber, were both extremely attentive and skilled. For an 11am appointment, there was plenty of street parking available. read more

Purchased a Groupon for this new head spa at the end of 2024. Called to make an appointment and was told that don't take Groupon. I shared with him that this must be a mistake because I obviously have one and it matches the business name and number as well as address. I then asked for a manager to call me back, which no one ever did. I ended up contacting Groupon and hassling with them for a few days and eventually they gave me a refund. Groupon did speak to the spa and they simply told them that they didn't wanna take any more Groupon they sold. read more

Booked a lymphatic and top scalp treatment recently. This was honestly the most dissatisfying and painful place I've been to! I could hear all the staff chatting while I'm getting my massage, the steamer burnt my scalp and when I escalated the lady Emma told me it's okay. The massage was mostly elbows jammed into my back. All of it was chaotic and so disappointing. I will never come back here. read more

Wow, this place is amazing. I saw so many reels on instagram, and being a member at Rumble boxing, I was able to get a 15% discount off my service, so I had to give it a try. I made a reservation for a scalp treatment and deep tissue massage. Both specialists for each service were attentive and patient in explaining everything to me. This is now my go-to spot whenever I feel like pampering myself. read more

Had an amazing couples head spa experience with Amber and Jenny! So relaxing and peaceful

I have tried many head spa places around LA and this one is the best - I only wish I knew it exist earlier! The ladies are all very lovely and highly skilled. I've done the head spa and deep tissue massage combo. The entire experience is very clean, detail-oriented, and super relaxing. They know just the right places to apply pressure and the right level of pressure to make you feel like on cloud 9. Highly recommend! Plus who doesn't love the mini bar read more

I had an amazing masseuse named Emma! I got the lymphatic drainage massage and it was amazing! I suffer from a lot of back pain and Emma was able to relieve so much pain on just an hour! I will def be coming back! read more

My friend and I want to treat ourself and have some girl's time,So why not scalp spa right? Elegant Scalp Spa were where we wanna give it a tried. Vibe : The place look nice and clean.A little bit moderate noise which I secretly hope it could be more quiet but anyway vibe was good! By the way,They offered free sodas,tea and coffee OMG we loved it! Service : It's worth the price and we went since they open in the morning,So not many people yet and all the staffs are nice and friendly.We chose gold package and it's just what we needed,The only thing I wish it would be different was that they used a varieties of hair product that fit the needed of clients.My hair and my scalp came out great and clean but I've been to the other scalp spa and my hair came out softer and smoother that's all. Parking : Plenty of street parking but make sure to read the signs where you can and can't park. Overall Do I wanna go back for the second time? Absolutely! It's a good place overall. read more

Phoned in a reservation for 3 (90 minutes) head and body combo and paid for deposit over the phone. They were speaking the whole time in a different language and it was hard to relax. Didn't massage equally on both sides. When it came time to pay, they couldn't find my deposit documented and never added towards the cost which was over $600. Disappointing. Don't recommend read more

Had a beautiful experience with Amber. She was extremely caring and respectful. I really enjoyed her massage and head therapy, she's very professional when it comes to the level of strength she's using. She will ask whether or not you're comfortable and if you're okay with the water temperature. Overall this experience exceeded my expectations. The ambiance of the shop was also amazing. I am def coming back! Highly recommend esp if you haven't done hair spa before. read more

Elegant head spa did a wonderful job with assisting me on my valentines day gift for my parents! I booked the scalp massage for my mum and dad- they handled it right off the phone.

This place is a hidden gem! Everything was so clean and relaxing, and the whole experience felt luxurious from start to finish. Amber took such great care of me. She was kind, professional, and her hands are MAGIC. I walked in stressed and walked out feeling like a new person. It was honestly one of the most relaxing experiences I've had in a long time. If you book, ask for Amber, you won't regret it! read more

This is the best massage parlor I've ever been to. The person who gave me the massage was named Amb. She's really great, and a very kind person. She made my long-term aches and pains in my shoulders and neck very relaxed. This place is also very elegant and quiet. It allows you to have a very good resting environment while getting a massage. I highly recommend it to everyone. read more

I've been to other head spas, and this one was really great. Granted, I love getting my hair washed. I found them on class pass and had booked a deep tissue massage and head massage. My appointment was at 12:00, and when I arrived, they had told me they did not have availability for the masseuse, but asked if I was OK with transferring it to a comparable service. I honestly do not know what service I got, but I enjoyed it. First, they showed me my oily scalp, then I got put on a bed and they washed my hair a couple of times. I also really liked the neck and shoulder massage. It was firm pressure, which I enjoy. There was a little bit of a language barrier, but we managed to be able to understand each other. They gave me red light on my hair, and an electrical pulse as well overall, I had a pleasant experience. read more

This was my second time doing the Gold relaxation Head Spa Therapy for 2 with my daughter and it's such a relaxing and wonderful experience. Jenny took care of me both times.

Thank you Jenny! I came out feeling so much lighter and my hair and scalp feel so nice. Definitely gotta come back

My bestie and I went here yesterday for our 1st head spa experience and it was wonderful. We were greeted with a warm welcome and offered beverages and to chill on a massage chair while we waited for service. They did scalp analysis to show me how dry my scalp was. We did a 90 min platinum hydration package which included 30 min head, scalp, neck, arms legs and feet massage. The best part for me was the scalp and head massage and then deep conditioning and mask treatment in my hair. I was so relaxed and after the service they did another scalp analysis to show you the improvement on my scalp. I would highly recommend this place and they granted us 35% off service it was awesome. Best birthday gift ever! read more

To preface this review - I booked a swedish massage at another establishment a week prior to my appt at Elegant Head Spa, and the difference between the experiences was NIGHT AND DAY! First of all, that other place doesn't have Amber. Amber was jovial, enthusiastic and most importantly, caring. I've had extreme tension in my upper back, neck and head from severe anxiety. She checked in with me several times, let me know what was coming, and was willing to make adjustments if i needed any. I felt AMAZING after the whole experience. I received a swedish massage and then a head scalp massage afterwards. Unlike many spa's, Elegant is really clean, has a fully stocked drink and snack area, and the staff is just fantastic. My one and only critique would be that the music skips at one point. It's a looping track and it just hiccups a tiny little bit. It's the pickiest of criticisms, but thats how granular I have to get to say anything bad about Elegant Spa. Book with Amber, she's amazing. thanks AMBER~!! read more

I was hesitant to share my review in case it was just a one off experience but as I think more about it, I want to be honest and share that I wouldn't return back here as I have had scalp/hair massages at other spas and this one was the least favorable one for me. My friend and I booked an appointment for 11am and the place was closed when we arrived. We waited 10 minutes, called twice, and DM'ed them on IG until someone finally responded that someone will open the door shortly. As someone who took time off work, it felt like they didn't respect our time. Once we finally enter, we got seated by the massage chairs and were offered complimentary drinks which was nice. The massage chair was a good start too. We then got escorted into the rooms where they analyzed our scalps and recommended a pricier treatment which we both agree to. I think the treatment itself was half enjoyable and half rough at certain moments. At the end, the staff who did my treatment talked poorly about my hair, told me to stop bleaching/dying my hair, left my hair knotted/not fully combed out and I left with my scalp feeling raw/tender. My friend had a gentler experience than I did so take what I say with a grain of salt and make your own judgement since they have multiple staff who might approach their work differently. Parking: street parking read more

The treatment so good!! I got facial + gold relaxation head spa therapy and the service was amazing. Feel so fresh and my head so relax now. Recommended place for head spa and for sure I will come again next time!! read more
