As always, Courtney is amazing. Super attentive and spot on for attention to detail. She remembered me from my last visits and service is always relaxing. I always feel like a new person after leaving Velvet because of her. Definitely recommend Velvet Headspa just because of her.

I've wanted to try a head/scalp spa treatment for a while. On IG and TikTok, I've seen good reviews. The Velvet Head Spa in Livermore caught my eye. So I made an appointment and I'm quite pleased! Courtney was assigned to me. Her scalp massage and treatment were relaxing and top-notch! It included a blow dry so I walked out with bright, shiny hair that feels so healthy!! I highly recommend The Velvet Head Spa for the value, vibe and excellent results! I'll be back. Thank you!

Everything was so special. One of my besties treated me to a day of relaxation and bliss. We got the signature package and it was amazing.

Wowowow!!! My best friend gave me a gift certificate here and I was too happy to book an appt and go! I've seen Velvet Head Spa pop up on my Instagram feed a few times and was THRILLED when they announced the opening of their Livermore location. First off, the website was super easy to navigate and I booked a 60 min deep scalp therapy along with a 25 min acupressure facial massage. My appt was scheduled for 11am on a Saturday, and I arrived at 10:50am - I like to be early. I was greeted with warm ambiance and very nice aesthetics. The young lady at the front desk was warm, helpful and inviting. She offered me a drink, and they have options (non alcoholic and such). She took a scalp analysis, showing me what my scalp looks like close up - super interesting, but also kind of gross. Lol!!I waited a few minutes and was shown to the treatment room. My technician was Kevin. He was amazinggg! I loved every part of my services enough to fall asleep. I was fading in and out of sleep because it was so comforting. After my service, I was taken to a common area where Kevin dried and styled my hair. The products that were used smelled so good! Then the young lady from the front showed me my scalp after the treatments. OMG, the difference!!!!! My scalp never felt cleaner, my hair was incredibly smooth and overall a wonderful experience! I look forward to coming back!!!

Omg the best experience ever! My mom and sister treated me for my birthday with the 90 minute signature and I could not recommend it enough! The experience was amazing. The staff was so friendly and the ladies that did our massage and scalp treatment were great. I feel so relaxed and my hair/scalp is so clean and soft. The vibe is so relaxing, and they even offer complimentary drinks. I will definitely be back and add this into my self care routine!

5 stars for the service and products--and another 5 stars for the facility! The space is absolutely stunning: clean, serene, and thoughtfully designed, with easy parking and a convenient location. I booked the 90-minute full treatment with Courtney, and it was totally worth it. From the gentle facial and soothing mask to the upper back, arm, scalp, and hair massage--it was pure bliss. Honestly, the best I've experienced in this area. The products are all organic, beautifully fragrant, and they even use a heated blanket during the massage, which adds an extra layer of comfort. I left feeling like I just walked out of a shampoo commercial--my hair looked bouncy, shiny, and healthy. They also offer complimentary drinks before, during, and after your session, which is such a thoughtful touch. I'm seriously considering their monthly membership. And to all the moms out there: you deserve this level of care and pampering. It's relaxation, rejuvenation, and a little hair magic--all in one.

**BLUF:** The receptionist could benefit from additional customer service training to enhance compassion and professionalism. The head scalp portion was nice and relaxing, but I had some concerns about the cleanliness of their hair brushes. ------------------------------------------ I really wanted to rate this experience higher, but unfortunately, my initial interaction with the receptionist made things a bit stressful. When I called to inform them I was running late due to an unforeseen medical reason, I felt rushed and she cut me off while explaining. A bit more understanding would have gone a long way. That said, they were able to reschedule us for the next day, which I appreciated. Upon arrival, we were greeted, but the warmth didn't last long. I recognized the receptionist's voice from the call, and while she did offer us drinks, she seemed unsure of the available options. I later noticed a wider selection in the fridge that wasn't offered to us, which was a small but noticeable detail. Additionally, her casual attire of sweat pants and a crop top showing her belly didn't quite fit the polished spa environment I expected. The service itself was quite relaxing--the facial and back massage were wonderful. However, the music in our room stopped playing, which impacted the ambiance. It took some time before I asked about it, and while my girl was very kind, she hadn't noticed. It turned out to be an internet issue, and thankfully, the music eventually came back on. As for the hair portion, I have curly hair and was given a diffusing treatment, but it left my hair poofy and frizzy. I wasn't sure if they offered a blow-dry option, as that wasn't communicated. Another concern was the brushes--I noticed one sitting in a box on the counter with other hair stuff, rather than in a visible sterilizer, which I've seen at other head spas. This was my first time at this particular spa but my third head spa experience, so I was hoping for a bit more attention to cleanliness. I did not use the brush in the box. When it was time to review my scalp post-treatment, the receptionist came over before my hair was fully dry and seemed eager to move things along with my girl. I also noticed that the device used to check mine and hubby's scalps wasn't wiped down between uses. At checkout, I was surprised that rather than being asked about our experience, the first question was about tipping 18 or 20% today. I was taken aback by the blunt question. While I always plan to tip for good service, it would have been nice to have a moment to reflect on our visit first. Overall, there were definitely relaxing and enjoyable aspects to the service, but I feel that with some improvements in customer service, hygiene practices, and attention to detail, this spa could provide an even better experience.

Relaxation station!

I'm not exaggerating--this was hands down one of the best experiences I've ever had! I booked a 60-minute deep scalp treatment with Becca, and now I'm completely hooked. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted warmly, and within a minute of sitting down, they performed a scalp health screening. The results were completely different from what I expected, making this not just a relaxing experience but an educational one too. Becca was amazing--gentle yet with just the right amount of pressure for total relaxation. This was my Valentine's gift from my husband, and now I want it for every holiday! Next time, I'm definitely upgrading to the 90-minute session.

I had such an amazing experience! I took the day off and decided to treat myself for my birthday by finally doing a scalp treatment and facial which I've never done before. My friend and I were greeted immediately and we thought the reception area was the most adorable thing ever. It was so cute! We were offered complimentary drinks which we loved! And while we waited, the receptionist showed us what the current condition our scalp was in. My scalp had a lot of oil buildup and discoloration so that was the main focus for today's visit. We were taken into a room where we were told we can take our shirts off or if we were wearing a tank top we can just put it off our shoulders and then we got under the covers. The bed table thing was heated for us and we were given pillows to put under our knees to feel more comfortable. We started with the facial and my girl Teresa was so good with her hands that she put me to sleep! I was in an out or sleep that I vaguely remember the whole experience lol. I've never had a facial before but it felt like a lot of moisturizing, mask, and massaging to my face which I actually enjoyed. The hair washing and waterfall shower felt like heaven. After blow drying my hair, I definitely felt like my scalp felt healthier, and my skin was glowing even more. The oil buildup was gone and there was some color to my scalp! There's a promotion/discount going right now so I paid $128 for a 60 minute scalp treatment and facial. But honestly I think the whole experience lasted 1.5 hours. I am definitely coming back!

Would definitely come again! Took my girlfriend for her birthday for her first head spa and would come back!

The place is very welcoming when you get in. Love how clean it is and the vibe is perfect for a spa day for your hair. I went here with my sister and the price for each service is fairly represented. The scalp and facial massage were so relaxing. I appreciated how our services happened all in the same room. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because there isn't much airflow when getting your back massaged. You're basically face down into the sink during this part of the service, so you're not able to breathe fresh air during the back massage. Other than that, everything else was great.

Super hair day !! Need to plan to go out now for this ..

Great quality experience ! It was amazing vibe here, lovely environment and amazing people. I got the deep scalp care and I already feel so fresh on my scalp and it looked like my hair and scalp are rejuvenated a lot after the treatment. Highly recommended for whoever wants themselves pampered and taken care of!!

Ask the Community - Velvet Head Spa

Do you provide treatment for dandruffs?

Hi there, we don’t do any treatment but our deep scalp therapy service will help exfoliate and cleanse the scalp. This will help to reduce dandruffs, stimulate and and promote hair growth.

When would be the best time to go? Like if I wash my hair every 2-3 days, should I come the day after I washed my hair or a couple days after? Does it matter?

It doesn't matter.

How much is a head massage?

$120

DO YOU DO BACK SCRUBS AND BACK EXFOLIATION?? Do you do back exfoliation or back scrubs?…

Hi Jude, sorry we don’t have that service

Do you offer Post Op Lymphatic Drainage Massage? My procedure was 1/7/2025.?

Hi, I am sorry that we don’t have this service.
