I Got My Scalp Professionally Cleaned

Hello friends & welcome to my scalp! In this episode, I try something I've been wanting to try for literal months - a professional scalp exfoliation!! As some of you may know, I do like to delve into different algorithmic rabbit holes on good ole' YouTube, and recently, YouTube has been showing me a lot of ASMR Head Spa videos, where ASMRtists get their scalps professionally cleaned to unclog their hair follicles and promote healthy hair & regrowth. And so, I decided to venture to the Blow Me Away Salon in LA to get a Japanese Head Spa treatment, and finally give my head the spa day it deserves. What do you guys think? Would you try something like this?

Apologies if my scalp is too disturbing, lol.

Also - just a heads up, there are other contributing factors to dandruff besides just dirty scalp - I think in my case, I just have a lot of buildup, and Arisa zeroed in on that in relation to my particular head. Also also - in terms of maintaining your scalp care at home, Arisa just mentioned using specific scalp cleansing products & serums about once a week!

Also also - I noticed that some of you guys are skeptical about some of the ingredients of the products & the treatment as a whole - totally fair for you guys to have criticisms about it, I wasn't trying to vouch for every individual ingredient, or for how effective this would be for everybody - I personally enjoyed it, and I just thought it would be interesting to know what they say are the active ingredients. I'll be sure to keep your thoughts in mind for next time we make a video in this arena.

    hello friends!!! a couple of quick disclaimers - i want to note there are other contributing factors to dandruff besides just dirty scalp - i think in my case, I just have a lot of buildup, and arisa zeroed in on that in relation to my particular head. so if you have dandruff, you might have a different problem than i did! also - i noticed that some of you guys are skeptical about some of the ingredients of the products & the treatment as a whole - totally fair for you guys to have criticisms about it, i wasn't trying to vouch for every individual ingredient, or for how effective this would be for every body - i personally enjoyed it, and i just thought it would be interesting to know what they say are the active ingredients. i'll be sure to keep your thoughts in mind for next time we make a video in this arena. xoxo, saf ❤
  • When she said “It’s not that bad” And the scalp lady said “hmm” I momentarily felt the pain of every woman in the world.
  • @holliegould3463
    even if any part of this is scam-y, the idea of someone else shampooing and massaging my scalp as i lay down and relax is literally a dream
  • Not safiya APOLOGIZING for her face SHAPE. Or what angles make her look different😱😵... Girl just do you! We love you, no matter how many chins you have, no matter how many hairs thin on your head, no matter how much or how little makeup you put on! You give us amazing, heartfelt, honest, and comedic content that we all enjoy and love don't over think it.💗💗💗

    "It's the scare and soothe". That's actually an excellent description of how spas and the like sell all these treatments.

    I cannot express how absurdly in favor of Spa Husband I am. Not only does Tyler deserve it, but only good things can come from showing that spa treatments aren't just for women, but for ALL people! Seriously. Mani/pedi, facials, body wraps, skin treatments, massages, hydrotubs, all these things can be incredibly beneficial to ANY man, woman, or other. It's not just a girly girl thing! I've always been here for Safiya's dancing and eyebrow waggles (yes, that is why I am here, specifically). But I find that pampering Tyler pleases me very greatly as well. MOAR PLZ.
  • Safiya apologizing for the angle and lighting and then showing clips of her literally looking absolutely gorgeous there is just no way for this woman to look bad 😍

    Saf's scalp from the before images were normal. She isn't experiencing hair loss at all from those photos. You will notice hair loss when the majority of hair pores only have 1-2 stands of hair. She had a healthy mix of 2-3 and 1-2s. Also most of the time single strand hairs are because of growth, more hair will eventually grow in those pores. In regards to her scalp, yes there a bit of build up, but that's normal and can be tackled with a clarifying shampoo or just cleansing your hair 2-3 times in the shower especially if you only wash your hair a few times a week. Also dandruff is a fungal infection. Which can be indicated my little yellow balls or clumps on the scalp. Most people mistake dandruff to just flakes which is normal. If you do have dandruff you need a treatment shampoo that is normally given by a dermatologist or specialty brand. That shampoo is often pH balancing which will help tackle the fungal infection and keep it at bay whislt keeping your scalp and hair clean and healthy. I wish I could make a video reply to his because I did study how the scalp and hair works and a lot of the information provided to her was a bit misleading. I don't want to discredit the salon, but this "treatment" can be done at home. If anything just changing your routine a little will do wonders for your hair and scalp. I always tell clients to treat your scalp and hair the same way you would treat your face, lashes, and brows. Use a gentle cleansing shampoo 1-2 times depending on hair wash cycle. Condition or use a mask at the end and what ever SMALL amount you have left gently massage onto the scalp just to bring moisture back to you scalp. Think of your scalp as an extension of your face. Make sure to thoroughly rinse out all the products and try to wash your hair with cold to luke warm water. Hot water will strip your hair and scalp of all its natural oils leaving your scalp raw, red, and dry. If you must shower hot, do a a few minutes of a cold burst of water to relax the scalp. Post shower you can apply you leave in conditioner to the ends of hair and a little on the scalp and just blow dry or air dry per usual. Of course getting this treatment is nice and done, but at the end of the day speak to a dermatologist if you are concerned with any dandruff or hair loss. Hair loss is contributed to many factors but mostly genetics and hormonal issues. A dirty scalp rarely contributes to hair loss/thinning. Will it stunt hair growth? Possibly, but not stop it all together. Hair loss is mostly based of DNA and genetics. The biggest indicator or hair loss and thinning is concerning amount of hair fall out during showers or your pony tails or buns over time have significantly been getting thinner or lighter.

    I totally get the criticism, but it seems to me the hair spa is the same as any facial you can get at a spa. They're treatments you can do at home and for much cheaper and its never something you NEED to do or especially spend a lot of money on, BUT you still get results and if you like the luxury and the spa experience then there's nothing wrong with it.
  • @asmrtwix
    OMG!!!! I just woke up to notifications😱😱😱that's crazy Safiya watched my videos????? I'm jumping🤣🤣🤣Hey Safiya, Japan is opening for tourists again. Let me take you to my favorite Head SPAs😍Let me know when you're in Japan, I will give you special SPA tour😅👏
  • I want to live in a world where beautiful women stop apologizing for their faces! there is no need to apologize for an angle change Saifya!!
  • @MistyJadeYT
    I would love to get this done because it looks relaxing but I can't get over how the woman talks to Safiya. A lot of what she was saying sounded to me like she's trying to make her feel bad or scare her into getting more treatments etc. Also dandruff is not caused from a dirty scalp like she said.
  • @leighabbr
    While I understand and respect your wanting to disclaim the "boiled egg" look lmao, you're so so beautiful - inside and out. So many of your subs have been here for years and years loving you for your huge personality, your content, your embracing of weird and different, your beauty AND your creativity. Literally no angle could ever make you look any less than inspiring and beautiful to me 💞💞💞
  • @saye3902
    Please don’t ever feel like you need to apologize for how you look on camera “hard boiled egg Safiya”. You are crazy beautiful and amazing, we all love you so much and don’t care!!! You’re so beautiful inside and out!!!!
  • I hate that Safina feels the need to interrupt the video to just apologize for having a face of a certain shape. Like, you are beautiful but you don't have to be in order to feel like you're making great content! I love you and what you give YouTube regardless of your "flaws"!
  • I felt bad for Saf during the first microscope examination because of how bad the expert was making it sound. Being very self conscious about the cleanliness/dirtyness of my body in general I would've cried honestly.
  • @Zubiila
    I'd definitely watch Spa-husband the series. It'd be an expensive series to make, but oh so relaxing.
  • Darling girl, who put into your head that you have to apologize for the shape of your face and how it looks on camera when you're having your hair washed? You look lovely, this treatment looks scrumptious, and I am also here for "Spusband" content.
  • up next on spa husband: we visit a head spa theme park 🛀🏼

    Hair spa is becoming weirdly popular among young people in Vietnam too, but it's called meditating hair wash. I resisted it at first thinking it's a scam but once I went, I got ADDICTED, I go once maybe twice a month now. Not only we get a wash like in the video, we got neck and shoulder massages and facial too, it is really relaxing. I think it became popular with young people because we are a generation that listen to our mental and physical needs, and promotes self-care. If you got a chance, highly recommend this
