What It's Like to Get a Facial for Your Scalp

Have you ever gone three, four days without washing your hair, spritzed copious amounts of dry shampoo, and thought nothing of it? Turns out, all that product build-up can do serious damage to your hair health. Scalp care is the new skin care, and on top of using products like toners and exfoliators, one way to maintain your scalp is to get a facial...for your head.

Tucked away in New York's West Village is Hair Repair Bar by Giojé, an oasis where they give blowouts, serve wine...and take a microscope to your scalp. It's the first step in the scalp facial process and gives an eye-opening (and kind of gross) look at the state of your hair health. Like a regular facial, there's steaming, chemical exfoliation, and masking. So, what's our verdict? Watch the ultra-satisfying process go down in the video, above, to find out.
