Frequently asked questions
Head spa questions, answered before you book.
Compare the treatment sequences, prepare your hair and plan a visit for one or two guests.
What is included in a head spa at Loft Thai?
A head spa combines scalp cleansing, hair care and massage in one appointment. At Loft Thai Spa & Tea House on Sukhumvit 71, the sequence depends on the ritual you select: a focused hair-and-scalp service is different from a combination that also includes facial care. The consultation establishes your hair texture, preferred finish, scalp comfort and any product sensitivities before the therapist begins. Classic Head Spa centres on cleansing, a water ritual, massage and conditioning. The two Aesop journeys have their own published sequences, including a double wash and professional blow-dry; the longer combined rituals add facial stages. Open the individual service card to check what belongs to your appointment rather than assuming every photograph or product on this collection page is included. Unlike a quick salon wash, the experience gives dedicated time to scalp massage and the surrounding spa ritual. It remains cosmetic care and relaxation, not a treatment for hair loss or a diagnosed scalp condition. Ultimate HydraFacial, also displayed here, is a separate face-only service without hair washing.
Should I book a 75-, 90- or 120-minute head spa?
Choose by the stages you want, not by duration alone. Classic Head Spa and Hair Care Treatment by Aesop both last 75 minutes, but they are different services: Classic focuses on scalp cleansing, the water ritual, massage and conditioning, while the Aesop option follows a branded hair-care sequence with a professional blow-dry. For combined hair and face care, compare the 90-minute Hair & Facial Spa Ritual with Hair & Facial Experience by Aesop. The latter includes the published Aesop facial and hair-care stages; matching durations do not mean identical products or inclusions. Signature Scalp & Facial Spa lasts 120 minutes and offers the fullest scalp-and-facial format in this collection. Ultimate HydraFacial also lasts 90 minutes, but is a facial rather than a head spa. Use the duration and price row on the exact card to continue to its reservation option. If time is tight, ask the team about the full visit before arranging onward travel. A longer appointment is not a promise of a better result, and the right choice should fit both your interests and your schedule.
How do the Aesop head spa rituals differ from Classic Head Spa?
The Aesop name identifies two specific head-spa journeys, not every treatment on this page. Hair Care Treatment by Aesop is the 75-minute option: Tibetan singing bowls and aromatic oils introduce the ritual, followed by a wooden-comb dry scalp massage, two washes, conditioning, neck, shoulder and arm massage, a warm rinse and professional blow-dry. Hair & Facial Experience by Aesop is the 90-minute combination. Its published sequence adds a 30-minute Aesop facial and includes double washing, conditioning under steam, arm or foot massage, the water-ring ritual, a rinse and blow-dry. Classic Head Spa is the separate 75-minute scalp-cleansing, water, massage and conditioning option. Choose the Aesop journey when that particular product direction and sequence appeal to you, rather than assuming the brand makes it suitable for every scalp. The therapist confirms product selection after consultation. Availability and formulations can change, so the current label is the reference for ingredients and allergens. Tell the team about fragrance preferences or known sensitivities before booking; do not assume every product pictured in the Aesop section will be used during your appointment.
What should I mention about my scalp, colour or hair extensions?
Tell the team before your visit if you have scalp irritation, areas you do not want touched, known product allergies, extensions, braids or recent colouring or chemical services. Explain any instructions your hairdresser or clinician has already given you, including products, washing, heat or manipulation to avoid. These details matter because the head-spa options can involve cleansing, conditioning, water, scalp massage and, in selected rituals, steam or blow-drying. There is no single waiting period on this page that can cover every colour process, extension attachment or scalp concern. Ask about your specific situation before selecting an appointment, rather than expecting the therapist to work around an undisclosed restriction on arrival. If your chosen ritual includes facial care, also mention recent facial procedures and skincare sensitivities. During the consultation, discuss neck support, comfortable water temperature and the amount of scalp pressure you prefer. Let the therapist know promptly if anything feels uncomfortable. This conversation helps establish whether the booked cosmetic service is appropriate; it is not a scalp diagnosis. For an active or unexplained condition, seek advice from an appropriate health professional rather than relying on a spa recommendation.
Do I need to prepare my hair, and is a blow-dry included?
Check the finish attached to your exact service before making plans after the appointment. A professional blow-dry is expressly included in Hair Care Treatment by Aesop and Hair & Facial Experience by Aesop. For Classic Head Spa, Hair & Facial Spa Ritual or Signature Scalp & Facial Spa, ask the team to confirm the finishing arrangements; do not assume that a blow-dry shown in another card is part of your booking. Mention your hair length, texture, extensions and preferred finish when discussing the visit. Avoid heavy styling products before a head-spa ritual, and tell the therapist about any prescribed scalp product or instructions you need to follow. You do not need to invent a special preparation routine: if you are unsure about washing your hair beforehand, ask when confirming the appointment. Allow time for the consultation and check the expected departure time if you have dinner, a meeting or onward travel. Afterwards, follow the guidance for the products and finish actually used, rather than applying a general rule from another treatment. Ultimate HydraFacial does not include hair washing or blow-drying.
Where is Head Spa available, and can two guests book together?
The head-spa rituals on this page are offered at Loft Thai Spa & Tea House on Sukhumvit 71. Confirm that location in your appointment details rather than travelling to another Loft Thai branch because it is closer to your hotel. Start with the card for the exact treatment you want: its Book link carries that service into the reservation flow, while View details lets you compare the sequence, duration and published price first. If two people would like to visit together, ask the team to confirm both appointments and whether simultaneous treatment or a shared setting is available. Two separate bookings do not by themselves guarantee the same start time, room or treatment setup. Each guest should choose a suitable ritual and communicate their own product sensitivities and preferences. For a same-day request, confirm availability before setting off. Check any promotion or voucher conditions separately; an offer for another massage is not automatically valid for Head Spa. Ultimate HydraFacial is a separate facial option in this collection, and its eligible branch is confirmed during reservation. Rely on the confirmed appointment for the final location, time and service.
