A NEW Japanese head spa is opening in Wrexham's city centre later this month after the relaxing wellbeing treatment went viral on social media.

After 20-years in the hairdressing industry freelancing and working in local salons, Gemma Heath has started a new venture as the owner of Headspa Wrexham to be based in the 'Love Hair & Beauty Lounge' at Mount Street, Rhostyllen.


The head and scalp massage treatment is said to have many benefits, including blood circulation, tighter pores, thicker hair volume and improving healthier hair growth. 

Videos of the experience took-off on social media earlier this year gaining millions of views, with most salons offering the service being based in cities such as London and Manchester.

The scalp undergoes a renewal cycle every 28-days so it's important to get scalp cleanses, Gemma says. Her headspa, will ensure clients leave with their scalp feeling nourished and hydrated. 

Talking about the inspiration behind the new business, she said: "I first watched the Japanese headspa performed on the internet and thought it looked amazing. I did some research on it and I really wanted to be able to offer this to my clients, old and new."

She adds: "It's also great for helping to relieve stress with relaxation and rejuvenation, as well as enhancing your mood and improving sleep quality. The treatment can relieve all built up stress which can lead to migraines, headaches, neck and back pain.
