Seoul | Scalpit Korean Head Spa Experience

What is Scalpit Apgujeong Rodeo?
Scalpit Apgujeong Rodeo is a Korean head spa in Seoul’s Gangnam district, just a 7-minute walk from Apgujeong Rodeo Station. The 100-pyeong (about 330 m²) flagship store is designed for calm, unhurried care: every treatment takes place in a private room with a dedicated head spa bed, and a single therapist looks after you from the first consultation to the final blow-dry. Your session opens with a scalp check on a magnified screen, where you and your therapist look at your scalp together and adjust the intensity and sequence of care to suit its condition that day. At the end, another image of the same area is taken so you can compare the before and after for yourself. It is a quiet, personal way to experience a Korean head spa in the heart of Gangnam.

What are the must-try experiences at Scalpit Apgujeong Rodeo?
Each course follows a carefully sequenced ritual. Treatments typically begin with aromatherapy and neck and shoulder acupressure, then move through scalp brushing, scaling to deep-cleanse the scalp, steam, a gentle shampoo, and water and air therapy that rinses and dries the scalp with streams of water and air. Select courses feature traditional Korean Bangjja therapy, in which a warmed, hand-hammered Korean bronze tool is used to ease tension in the neck and shoulders, a soothing way to shake off the fatigue of a long day of sightseeing. Depending on the course, care may continue with a scalp pack, galvanic care, LED calming care, a 3-step hair repair clinic, or a carbonated serum. Every session ends with a basic blow-dry, and you can freshen up afterwards in the powder room, where a hair dryer and comb are provided, before heading straight to your next stop in Seoul.
