A DIY spa scalp and hair treatment done at home can be just as effective as one done at a spa. Are you craving a little spa pick me up but you don't have the time or funds to schedule an appointment at your favorite spa? Let me teach you how to get spa results at home without a lot of fuss. You can do these treatments any time you want, and for a fraction of the cost. All you need is an understanding of the key steps in spa treatments.
You've probably also got most of what you need in your bathroom or kitchen right now. First, my confession: I'm a dermatologist and a spa junkie. Right now, I'm in the mood for a fix of "spa brain" without a big trip to a spa. I've been running a how-to series on my personal favorite spa treatments. Before you read today's post, be sure to read my first post of this series, where I set the stage for a super-therapeutic, exfoliating tub soak. These additional treatments build on that soak because water is the starting point for any deeply-hydrating skin therapy.

When I treat myself to an actual spa treatment, this is an "add on" that I always get. It's funny though, at a spa, they often do a scalp treatment by applying the oil to a dry scalp. As a dermatologist, I know that it works better on a damp scalp, so that's how I build a better hydrating scalp and hair oil treatment!
Step 1: Start by washing your hair before your tub soak. No need to condition it yet, just shampoo out any product and oil in your hair. Step 4: Massage the oil into your hair and scalp with your fingers or a scalp scrubber. I love these things. As a fan, I realized that a good scalp scrubber is hard to find, so I started selling them on my site. Click here to see what I mean by a "scalp scrubber".
