    My before scalp from coloring my hair :(
    Whitney L.

    So I'm definitely upping my review because I've had so many good experiences (except for maybe 1 incident). It's an appointment based setting so they do not accept walk-in's but are somewhat flexible to same-day time changes depending on availability. I've actually booked a 9 AM appointment for tomorrow but plan to change to 7 PM since I picked up a morning shift at work. Calling the location makes adjustments go faster. It's a bit small, however this is probably one of the more affordable heads spas in Maryland. I went to one in Chicago which was $79 for an hour with cash.

    My bestie surprised me with tickets to the Japanese head spa that opened up in Rockville and we had the best time. We technically booked for the couples Japanese head spa, but all that meant was that we were in the same room side-by-side. It started out with a scalp inspection and then we moved to the room where we got in some robes and then we were told to soak our feet and then lay down after our feet were soaked. They gave us a foot and calf massage and then started on a neck, shoulder and upper back massage. After that, they moved to the head spa portion and got rid of all the buildup and leftover product and sebum on our scalp. My scalp has never felt so clean and I felt like the massage was invigorating and relaxing. I felt like something unlocked in me that had been stuck probably my entire life. Old tension released that I've never been able to relax. After that, they dried and brushed our hair, and added in some hair oils. Then they did the scalp inspection again so we could see the before and after. The entire process was 70 minutes long. Sofi was my technician and she did an amazing job. I would absolutely be back and my scalp, now a few days later, has never felt cleaner. I have volume in my hair that I haven't seen in a long time and my hair just looks healthier and cleaner.

    Scheduled a couples Head Spa with Jin and Sophie as a birthday present and it did not disappoint. The experience was absolutely the best head wash and massage I ever received- hands down. Think of an elevated salon hair wash by 2 folds. I will definitely be back for another head spa massage and their lymphatic drainage massage.

    So yelpers...have y'all seen y'all's scalps up close and personal?? Well, if you want to know..let me tell you that it is quite fascinating!! Ive first seen this treatment on social media, and I had no idea that Serenity Head Spa was opening up a 2nd location in Rockville, and would offer this extensive and relaxing treatment. The place is new and very clean. They also offer body massages and couples massage. So briefly- they 1st take a look at your scalp under a specialized magnifying camera..and then they go over their findings with you, while you watch your magnified scalp on screen. See pictogram for reference. Then they lead you to a private room, where you change into their spa garments, lay on a table that has built in sink/wash basin on one end, and a pedicure-like foot tub on the other end. From here-your treatment is based on your spa package. All treatments include a foot soak, followed by a foot/lower leg massage; then a very relaxing head, neck, AND scalp massage; and a ginger-herbal scalp scrub, hair wash and masque. I got the 90 min upgraded serenity head spa pkg-so that included a lymphatic drainage face massage and a mini facial, as well as a steam treatment for my face and hair. Also, I have curly-coily natural hair, and my technician was very gentle with my textured hair, yet thorough with cleansing my scalp. Even though she tried to reassure me that she had experience with my hair type and texture, I was a bit concerned with how things would go, but she did an amazing job. Anyone with a similar hair pattern-please do not be deterred. I will preface by saying that I THROUGHLY detangled my hair before my treatment using a detangling leave-in conditioner, so my hair and scalp were oily on arrival. My hair curl strands can snap (break) if they're dry and improperly handled, so this was my way of protecting my hair during the initial parts of the treatment. I also scheduled a hair appt with my personal hair dresser to follow, and I did not have the technician blow dry my hair. She did gently towel dry it, and I headed straight to my hair dresser with slightly damp hair. I planned this out just in case things went "left", but honestly- it was totally fine. My hair dresser checked my scalp and hair, and she was very impressed. She specializes in natural hair care and treatments, and she remarked how incredibly soft my hair felt. I plan to do this again in a few weeks to get my scalp as healthy as possible...and it's soo relaxing! I will only book the same technician. Parking is very convenient with a private lot, and I was able to park right in front of the shop. Highly recommend!! Yelp pro tip: pay in cash to get a $20 discount.

    I was happy to hear that a head spa opened in Rockville, MD. I made an appointment to receive their Supreme Spa Package (100 minutes). It's a cozy spot...location is a bit tricky to find, but they do have ample parking. I was greeted by a very friendly staff member and was offered some tea or water. My session started with the scanning of my scalp and hair follicles. She explained what a healthy scalp should look like, etc. It was also explained what treatments I will be receiving. I was guided to the room where my treatment would be done and I changed into the spa garment that's provided.  Here are my thoughts: Pros: -Friendly and Attentive Staff -Clean Spa Room -Love the Spa Garment -Blanket/Towel were soft -Foot Massage was good -Head Treatment was great (acupressure/shampoo/steam) -Lymphatic Massage was good (def can tell it was needed) -Facial was good (due to acupressure) -Pay in cash and you will receive $20.00 off your treatment Cons: -Foot soak was pointless (no plastic lining/no essential oils - soak lasted 5 minutes) -Foot/Lymphatic Massage could've been longer If I decide to do it again; I will just get the Basic Serenity Package and pay in cash.

I've been going…read moreconsistently every 4-6 weeks except when there was a very stressful time in my life (with work) where I was so busy and had a two or three month gap from visiting Irina and my skin became soo bad! From the stress and also from me not taking good care of myself and following the skin routine Irina always reminds me to do. This was right before my wedding too so having all my acne come back added to the stress. I also developed a lot of back acne and my wedding dress was strapless. I texted Irina about my back before I had my scheduled appointment and Irina was able to move my appointment earlier so then she could spend more time on me and fix my back. Irina helped me do a lot of extractions and also told me how to best care in the next week leading up to the wedding. By the time the wedding came, my acne was cleared with minor areas where it was a lot easier to manage. I can't thank her enough! I now know I must keep with the schedule and visit Irina every 4-6 weeks, not only does she help me clear up my skin but also as a constant reminder to take care of myself. She never pushes products on me but I've fully bought in and listen to whatever she tells me I need as I have my full trust in her. I will forever be a client :) Pictures: 1) when I first went to Irina & after only 2 treatments with her and listening to her advice on my routine and diet 2) my back acne photo I texted Irina when I was freaking out what to do 3) wedding day - you can see the back is cleared!

Not only was it dry due to the weather changes, but it looked dull and what I can only describe as "gray." Basically, not cute. The website laid out what services were offered and how each helped the skin, even combining some of them into the Ella Ultimate Treatment package, which is what I opted for since it was my first facial and what not. Went full on out. Location and ambiance: located by the new One Life Fitness on the second floor of Sola Salon Studios, where there are a ton of different businesses under one roof. I saw hair, makeup, etc. The room was the perfect size, very clean and organized. Backlit with a calming purple hue, plus acoustic music playing in the background Service: Taylor was my esthetician and she was really warm and welcoming. After filling out some forms, we jumped right in, talking through what was happening during each step since I was pretty unfamiliar with it all I left with my skin feeling the softest it has in years and very glowy and dewy - exactly what I was hoping for. It's only been a few days, so I'm curious to see how long the results last, combined with my new knowledge of what my skin needs (she emphasized hydration and exfoliation). Looking forward to returning for maintenance. Small suggestions for improvement: I wish there was a way to fill out the intake form online. I did it when I first arrived and we didn't deeply discuss the form or my skin concerns before diving in. It would also be helpful to give patients a resource for when they leave. For a noob like me, there was a lot of terminology and products and suggestions, so it was a little hard to wrap my mind around.

I finally decided on Annie's out of convenience and because she had the best prices ($58-70). The day before my appointment, I saw she introduced a Yelp deal ($50 for $70 worth of services) so I grabbed it up and was able to upgrade the facial. I was Annie's last appointment for the day and I arrived 10 minutes late. Despite all that, she took her time on my facial. She started off by looking at my skin and noted that I wasn't acne-prone but I have oily skin. She didn't say anything as she worked which I love whenever I get treatments so I can just enjoy the experience and relax. (I can't stand chatty therapists, especially masseuses.) Here are all the other points as to why I absolutely loved my facial with Annie: 1) Painless extractions 2) The steam is gentle and not overwhelming 3) She uses a vacuum that sucks up all the dirt and grime from clogged pores (my problem area was my t-zone) 4) She moisturizes your hands 5) She throws in really nice massages for the hands, arms, shoulders, neck, and head 6) I could see a HUGE difference with my skin afterwards 7) She didn't try to push any expensive products and regimens on me 8) It's been over 24 hours and I haven't had any breakouts as a result of the facial (normal but not preferred)
