My friends and I recently tried a scalp therapy treatment at this spa, and it was an experience we had been looking forward to for quite some time. Without a doubt, it's one of the best spas in Quincy. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, creating a warm and comfortable environment from the moment we arrived. We all received the same scalp treatment, which lasted a little over an hour, followed by a professional blow-dry. The team was highly skilled, and our scalps and hair felt incredibly clean, soft, and refreshed afterward. The results were so satisfying, it immediately made us want to schedule our next visit! In addition to scalp treatments, the spa offers a variety of services including massages and waxing. I’m already looking forward to returning!

I am writing this review a day after my appointment. I booked a 100-minute Deep Cleaning Scalp Detoxification along with a 60-minute Prenatal Massage. Starting with the scalp treatment — I honestly did not enjoy it. I agree with others who mentioned that it felt very rough. My scalp, which was healthy before the treatment, is now sore. The woman performing the treatment was quite rough with both the tools and her hands. At one point, she even wore gloves that pulled at my hair, making it uncomfortable. Another big disappointment was the aftercare. My hair wasn’t washed properly after being oiled, so I left with an oily scalp and extremely dry ends. I’ve attached a photo of my hair right after the appointment to show how greasy it was. I actually had to wash it again as soon as I got home just to get rid of the oiliness — which completely defeated the purpose of what was supposed to be a relaxing and refreshing treatment. I also opted for the 100-minute treatment because it included face gua sha and head bojin, but the face gua sha lasted barely two minutes, which felt rushed and incomplete. On the positive side, the prenatal massage was good, and I did leave feeling relaxed from that portion of the service. I also want to mention that the woman at the front desk was very sweet and welcoming, which I appreciated. Overall, I’m giving 3 stars — mainly because of the good prenatal massage and kind check-in experience, but the scalp treatment was far from relaxing and not worth it for me.

I LOVED it! I came for the first time and did the 100 minute scalp clean and facial. Such a great package - they showed me my roots before and after the treatment (so much dead skin before!) and also deep cleansed my hair, gave me a relaxing head, shoulder, neck massage, and a calming face mask with steam. It was the perfect mix of relaxing and cleansing. I got Jenny and she was so lovely, she asked what level of intensity I liked for the massage and scalp treatment. She provided the perfect amount of pressure and also checked in with me throughout the treatment to make sure the pressure was still good. The front desk attendant was also so kind and accommodating! They have great prices for such great service. The space is small but very clean and they do a good job of making private spaces for each treatment. I am definitely coming back 🙂 I attached pictures of my scalp after the treatment - no more flaky dandruff or frizz!

I had an amazing first experience! The scalp therapy was incredible, and the quick shoulder massage was so relaxing. The entire visit was great, from the treatments to the welcoming environment Everyone working there was super friendly, especially Sissi, who made sure I felt comfortable the whole time. Highly recommend!
