I'm so glad that this place was recommended. First, everything is clean. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the clean and welcoming energy. Mikayla was very friendly and explained everything she would be doing during the process. I chose the Advanced Head Care which included the scalp/hair treatment along with a mini facial massage. The service also included massaging of the neck and shoulders. She showed me pictures of my scalp in the beginning and how to tell the difference in areas. Unfortunately she did not do the after shots so I'm not sure how it looked after the treatment. Maybe next time. ‍ It was very relaxing and educational. They have a 20% discount for first time visitors and I do plan on going back again. I recommend checking them out if you're in the area. read more

I hate leaving a bad review - but this was not a good experience at all for me. I visited H20 because I have thinning hair and thought this head spa might be able to support me with better scalp care. I purchased the "expert scalp service" which included a mini facial. It ultimately seemed like they just don't cater to people with any scalp or hair issues, they don't ask you about your concerns or goals, and really they provide a one size fits all experience. I really wanted to optimize my hair and scalp care, and sadly came away with the opposite. If they knew anything about scalp care for thinning hair, they sure didn't share any of that knowledge with me. Pro: The person who did my treatment seemed very kind and she meant well, so I have nothing against her specifically. I am giving two stars just because they seem like they try, they just don't seem to have any actual expertise in scalp or head care. The scalp analysis was a few quick close up scans of my scalp with no real explanation other than "see, there's some build up". I have very fine, brittle and thinning hair and the tech kept brushing it roughly throughout different parts of the treatment, including when it was wet with product in my hair (great way to lose more hair). I cringed as I could hear and feel my hair breaking every time. The treatment table is super uncomfortable and my neck kept locking up as the tech worked on different sides of my face, scalp and neck. The facial itself was totally claustrophobic - they put the face mask on, then a big sheet of gauze with something on top to weight it down covering your entire face, including mouth and eyes. It stays there for an hour while they do the scalp treatment. I couldn't see anything and there was so much going on with the water - it totally freaked me out when I was lying there trying to relax and had no idea what the tech was doing. And at one point, all of a sudden there's all this water shooting out at my neck out of nowhere. I spent half the treatment bracing myself for jump scares because I couldn't see anything. But even worse than the hair breakage was that the facial irritated my face so much that I am now all broken out :( I take really good care of my skin so this is a huge bummer. I have no idea what they did to it - there was some kind of scrubbing machine at the beginning of the facial that may have stripped my moisture barrier - or it was the fact that they left the mask on for an hour while they did the scalp treatment and it clogged my pores. My face is now all red and bumpy and some of it is itchy. This has never happened before, and I have no allergies - I think they just messed with my skin way too much. I'm sure they did not consider any specifics of my skin type or age when they did the facial. I'm glad other people like this place, and I'm sorry I didn't. If you have any specific scalp or hair issues, it may be best to avoid H20 or like me, you will come home with a lot less hair than you started with (and possibly a broken out face too!) read more

Absolutely worth it! So glad there's a quality place near home. Clean, quiet & serene establishment. Easy to forget you're in a "strip mall." Excellent, attentive & polite customer service. I don't even know how many times my hair was washed and conditioned with the advanced treatment, but my scalp feels refreshed & clean and my (curly, Black/biracial girl) hair is soft & bouncy. The multi-step mini facial left my skin soft and happy too. Sudsy neck & shoulder massage included. High value products used for the blow dry after; Olaplex & Amika. 20% off 1st time visit special! + the Vietnamese place next door is hella good, perfect for a before or after meal. read more

H2O Head Care Plus - Entryway vibes... - Hair Salons Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

Was impressed the minute I walked in, very clean, friendly staff and super cute decor in the front room where they blow dry. Everything about the experience was incredible. I had Mikayla do an "intermediate" treatment. She was gentle, never pulled my hair and gave the best massage ever. I was so relaxed the whole time and will be recommending this place to all my friends and family! She even used brand name products like Olaplex, my hair and scalp feel so healthy. Very reasonably priced for everything included, the water halo faucet was my favorite part. Will be coming back asap! read more

H2O Head Care Plus - Treatment room, so relaxing! Very clean, water features and relaxing music - Hair Salons Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

I absolutely love coming to H2O Head Care Plus to maintain the health of my scalp and hair--it's important, people! I became a member a while back, so I get 20% off each session, and I try to come at least quarterly. The space is always clean, the staff is always professional, and every visit is consistently relaxing. My scalp and hair feel amazing every single time. During my most recent visit, they were running a promotion: a free 30-minute facial with any head spa treatment. I see an esthetician regularly, so I'd never tried their facials before, and there isn't a detailed description of what they offer. But since it was free and short, I figured why not? I took a peel at what they used afterwards but tt ended up being a simple, gentle facial using a rose cleanser, aqua gel exfoliation, a soothing facial massage, and a thick gel-like mask (looked like some sort of hydrogel). No extractions--just the basics. They started with the facial, and while the mask set, she continued with my usual head spa. The facial was relaxing and my skin felt nice afterward, but I'll be sticking with my regular esthetician since we've been working toward specific skincare goals for years now. That said, I will definitely keep coming back here for the head spas! They're unbeatable. Always a great experience and always worth it. Highly recommend! read more

I definitely recommend going to this place at least once. Why? First timers get a 20% off their first treatment which is a great deal. Treatments cost anywhere between $150-$200 depending on how intense of a clean you get, massage, facial, etc. I was taken care of by Jenny and she did a great job with me. She showed me with the camera what my scalp looked like which was honestly not flattering at all but it helped to make the decision on what type of treatment to get. I got the special scalp care to help get rid of the all the built up product in my hair that was causing my dandruff and she made sure to put treatments on to moisturize my super dry scalp. Worth every penny. If you look at the after photo, you can see how pink and healthy my scalp looks. Jenny really took her time, making sure to cover every inch of my scalp and was gentle and firm at the same time. I will definitely be back again. There's also another deal that if you become a member, I think the cost is $60 for 5 years, then you can get 20% off every treatment. Not bad! I may have to consider getting it. read more

I was so excited to discover that there's a Korean-inspired scalp care salon nearby in Pleasant Hill. I've been looking forward to trying H2O Head Care Plus, especially their 75-minute "Special Scalp Care" treatment. This review, however, is specifically about their exceptional responsiveness and customer service. After reading so many positive reviews, I reached out to ask if they would consider donating to our children's school fundraiser. I was putting together a "Korean Self-Care" auction basket featuring K-beauty skincare, teas, snacks, and gift certificates - including one for a Korean head spa experience. To my surprise, they responded within a day and were more than willing to contribute a generous gift certificate. Their willingness to support our school community was truly appreciated. The basket ended up selling for $360 and was one of the top three most sought-after items at the auction - thanks in large part to their contribution. We are incredibly grateful for businesses like H2O Head Care Plus that show up for the community and support local schools. I'm even more excited now to experience their services firsthand. Thank you again for your generosity! read more

It's not bad. Will I be back? Maybe if only someone is paying for me. They offer 20% off 1st time visit which is nice. The place felt clean. I got the Special Scalp care for scalp issues. I called ahead to see if the facial included extractions. They said yes. I didn't receive extractions tho. Towards the end of the facial I asked about the extractions and the tech didn't seem to understand what I was asking. She later understood and said that I didn't request for extractions and that's why she did not do them. I'm getting the feeling that perhaps each staff member may not be estheticians? I'm not sure if that's true but that's my guess. They did show me a couple of up close pictures of my scalp, but did not do a thorough analysis. She just provided a simple explanation like that I had some dryness. I think I expected more from this experience like a more in depth scalp analysis. But they didn't advertise that so that was an assumption on my end. Aside from the lack of extractions, it was an overall good experience. The scalp and hair care portion was very relaxing! My hair felt amazing. They dried my hair with a Dyson hairdryer and used Olaplex products. It was fun experience but not sure if this is something I personally want to pay for regularly. Ask about extractions as your experience may be different from mine. I have been to a Korean spa where they did a full body treatment including hair wash for similar price as this, and I would rather spend my money there, more bang for your buck IMO. But to each their own! If you have the budget for it, this was cool to experience! read more

I scheduled an appointment ahead of time for two people and was surprised that no deposit or credit card hold was required. To me that is a plus because they are showing their reliance on guests too attend or cancel at a reasonable time. I had the intermediate experience which is originally $150, but received a 20% discount as it was my first time visiting. My friend had the craziest experience that also came with a facial. Overall, the analysis of the scalp plus the shoulder massage and scalp massage that you receive in addition to your treatment as well with the price. My friend did tell me that she would skip the facial because it felt more like a face massage versus a treatment with extra extractions and exfoliation. After the treatment is complete, they walk you out into the main lobby and complete blow drying your hair with a Dyson blow dryer and Olaplex hair products. Everyone was so nice and offered bottled water after the service as well. I really enjoyed my experience and have told a few people and hope they visit as well! read more

Incredible service and experience! I came here with a gift certificate and originally booked the "Advanced" package, but after seeing how congested my scalp was, I decided to upgrade to the "Expert" package, and I'm so glad I did! Summer took care of me and was incredibly gentle and attentive throughout the entire service. This was my first time getting both a facial and a head spa, and I'm now fully convinced this needs to become a quarterly (if not bi-annual) ritual! I walked out feeling relaxed, refreshed, and completely rejuvenated. It was a true spa experience from start to finish. The space is clean, calm, and clearly well-maintained. I'll definitely be back.. and I'm seriously considering a membership! read more

My first head spa experience ever was positive, relaxing, and refreshing! They offer 20% off your first visit. I initially booked the beginner package, but after my scalp was checked with a camera and shown to me, I upgraded to the Special Scalp Care to get a scalp deep cleaning to address buildup on my hair follicles. The deep cleaning and shoulder massage was so satisfying, and my head felt so clean afterwards, which I could see the results of with the camera at the end of the service! They also blow dry your hair and use Olaplex products at the end of the service, and give you a small bottle of water. I would recommend this place to first timers for the scalp deep cleaning, especially because of the discount! Service was kind and helpful without being too pushy about upgrading, which I appreciated. read more

First time trying the Japanese-style head spa :P I booked a Saturday afternoon appointment for my mom and me. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and escorted to our rooms. I initially booked two Beginner sessions, but you're actually able to upgrade onsite after they conduct the initial scalp assessment (a bit of upselling... lol oh well). I ended up changing to the Special Scalp session as I was curious how my psoriasis would respond. The initial scalp assessment is pretty quick, my specialist ran the camera through my scalp and pointed out some problem areas while recommending new hair wash techniques to improve my scalp health. I thought it'd be longer, but it was maybe 5~ mins. The remainder of the session was washing hair, scalp scraping, and some massage. TBH a TON of it was scalp scraping, I think all my dead skin cells (and maybe the first layer of my skin) were purged that day LOL. The session ended with hair drying and some styling. Overall, very relaxing-- my scalp definitely felt cleaner and less oily for the week or so after. There's definitely long-term benefits to be had there. I tried their advice of washing every 3 days, but my scalp was way too oily to tolerate it. I think I'd like to try different treatments to see what my skin responds best to. NOTE1: We were running late after some traffic and they graciously moved our appointment time down without sacrificing any time. Super considerate gesture (and lucky us that they were still available then!) NOTE2: I've also purchased gift cards here as Christmas gifts and they're beautifully made! It comes in a red gilded envelope and on nice cardstock~ read more

First time getting a scalp spa treatment as nd it did not disappoint! Me and my three. Friends made appts on a Saturday in the morning, we walked in and staff were ready for us. We decided on the advanced package that include s a scalp treatment, hair mask and mini facial. I had summer working on e and she was absolutely amazing! She explained to me everything we would do, was very detailed & even suggested specifics for my scalp type. The ambiance in the room is immaculate. It is quiet dnd serene with the same water sound playing in the background that put me at ease. The facial was above and beyond and the scalp tee as menu left me feeling squeaky clean. I felt Absolutely relaxed. At the end they blow dry /diffuse your hair so you don't leave dripping. I beyond impressed. Will definitely be returning. read more

Ugh, if I could I would make this a monthly thing! I've been wanting to do a scalp treatment for yeaaaars when it was only offered in the LA area. I'm so glad it's become more popular & made its way here. I chose the expert scalp treatment with facial to treat myself for my birthday. I'm so happy I got paired up with Summer. I was hella raving about my experience to my fam after and found out my sis in law had the opposite experience because her lady was non stop talking about her family drama. So, highly recommend the expert with facial with Summer especially if it's something you're not going to do all the time. It was hella relaxing, they use high quality products like Olaplex. There were even some moments where I was like how is she massaging me so good at this angle lol?! I loved it so much I booked an appointment for my husband with Summer. Only negative was that they booked the wrong appointment and only gave him the beginner treatment without the facial and he didn't correct them because he had no idea what I sent him there for lol. read more

Finally a head spa nearby! I booked the advanced head care which included deep wash and scalp massage, should and neck massage, moisturizer repair hair mask, and facial. Took about an hour and 15 mins. Very relaxing and the massage was great! Lobby and rooms were clean. Would definitely come back! They have a membership available where you get 20% off services valid for 5 years and shareable! read more

I'm so glad a headspa finally opened up in the area! I've already been twice and loved both visits. It's tucked into a plaza with a bunch of food spots and plenty of parking - super convenient! One thing I really appreciate is that each client gets a private room--unlike some other headspas I've tried that use an open floor plan, which I never liked. Before the treatment, the staff showed me what my scalp looked like through a device and also gave me some great tips for caring for my hair after the treatment. The treatment itself was very relaxing and I may have dozed off a few times! First-time clients get 20% off, and they offer a membership if you plan on going regularly. read more

I have been wanting to try a head spa for the longest time, so I was so excited to find out that one was coming close by. It was my first time trying it and I have eczema along the edges of hairline, so I opted for the most advanced experience. It was the best hour and a half! The experience started with a consultation of my scalp. Then, it proceeded with a hair shampoo and massage. That seemed to be repeated multiple times. The massage didn't just stop at my head. My shoulders got some attention as well. After the whole treatment was over, my hair was dried using a blow dryer. All in all I loved it. My hair was so soft and clean for multiple days. I even noticed that my eczema area wasn't as itchy for weeks. I will definitely go again since I ended up getting a membership! read more

My birthday month has been filled with trying different spas and this place has definitely stood out for its unique services. A head spa- who knew?! Popularized in Korea, this spa is all about giving the upper part of your body some love, especially your scalp and hair, which I'm all about! Ambiance is clean and cozy with private treatment rooms and specialized staff who know how to make you feel amazing. They start off with taking pics of current state of your scalp and it made us want to get the special scalp treatment, which incorporated scalp, neck, shoulder massage, hair mask, heated eye mask- I'm sure I fell asleep at some point because it was so relaxing. The tingling from the water treatment tickled at first but they make sure it doesn't go in your ears. Afterwards, they show you the scalp after pics and wow- it looked so much better, so clean! They also give you water, dry your hair, and you leave feeling rejuvenated. You get 20% off your first visit and you can sign up for a (sharable) 5 year membership for $59.99 and get 20% off every time you come in! read more

I'm ready to take my friend with me one month, and my husband another. My daughter took me to H2O Head Care after her earlier positive experience. The calm ambiance in the entry and the treatment rooms creates a relaxed hour for a close look at your scalp condition, then an indepth scalp massage, deep cleaning and conditioning, and, with the intermediate option, a hair mask. Once you redress, they dry and brush your hair. Count on cleanliness, quiet music, and capable staff. In my case, thank you to Jenny for her meticulous work. read more

This place is gorgeous!!! And so so relaxing! This very luxury service performed by professional and talented people is something all women should be going to do! Treat yourself and you won't regret it! I was greeted by the owner who was so kind. She led me to my room and brought me a bottle of water while I got settled for my treatment provider to come in. Nannan did my treatment and is the sweetest. She really cared about making sure I was comfortable and giving me the best treatment possible. They educate you on scalp health all while giving you the haircare day your head has always dreamed of. I could not recommend this place more! Run, do not walk. You have to come try this! Thank you so much ladies I will be back! read more

I came to H2O Head Care Plus and had my first head spa experience. I did the special scalp care package plus facial and it was the most relaxing thing I've done in a long time. The facial was probably a 6-9 step process and my skin was glowing afterwards. The head massage was heavenly. I couldn't believe how oily and full of buildup my scalp looked before (was able to see close up imaging). After the treatment, my hair was the softest I've ever felt it. A million times better than even the best blow out you've had. Not to mention, the experience included an amazing head, neck, and shoulder massage. I'll definitely come back every few months to relax. read more

First timer- was a great experience. Tran was awesome and went above and beyond. I did the special treatment and although I don't know how it compares to the basic, it was awesome.

I gifted my mom with the beginner head care package for her birthday and she absolutely loved it!

Would definitely recommend! read more
