## How the 60 minutes are spent

Minutes are time in the room with your therapist, including a 5-minute talk at the start.

1. **A short talk**5 minChi asks how firm you like the scalp massage, whether the water should be a little warmer or cooler, and any scent you dislike. You lie on the wash bed with your neck on a cushion.
2. **First herbal rinse**10 minHair wetted and washed with the herbal water Chi made that morning (lemongrass, bồ kết soap pods, pomelo leaf), then rinsed.
3. **Scalp massage**12 minFingertip massage of the scalp from the forehead back to the nape, slowly, in time with your breathing.
4. **Neck massage**8 minBoth sides of the neck and the nape, while the herbal water stays in your hair.
5. **Second rinse**5 minA second rinse with warm herbal water, then a final rinse with plain water.
6. **Towel dry**5 minHair dried with a towel and wrapped, and you sit up slowly. The 45-minute wash has no blow dry.

Gội đầu dưỡng sinh is how Vietnamese people say herbal hair wash: hair washed in water brewed from herbs, with a scalp and neck massage. Lụa Spa has three of them: 45 minutes, 60 minutes and a 90-minute head spa. This page covers the 45 and 60-minute washes; the head spa has its own page. Prices include 8% VAT, no tip is expected, and the minutes include a five-minute talk at the start.

## The 45-minute wash, 360,000 VND

Two herbal rinses, a scalp and neck massage, towel dry. The steps above are this session. Chi brews the herbal water each morning from lemongrass (sả), bồ kết (a soap pod used for hair in Vietnam) and pomelo leaf (lá bưởi).

## The 60-minute wash, 480,000 VND

Everything in the 45 minutes, then 15 minutes of shoulder massage after the wash. If you want head and shoulders in one hour, this is the neatest way; for neck and shoulders alone there is the 45-minute neck and shoulder massage at 490,000 VND.

Not in either: blow dry, hair mask, colour or cut. We make no promises about your hair or scalp.

## Who does it

[Chi](/en/therapists/nguyen-thi-kim-chi) does every herbal hair wash. She grew up beside her aunt’s hair-wash stall in Cần Thơ and works Monday, Tuesday and Thursday to Sunday (off on Wednesdays).

Mrs Lệ, Bảo’s mother, had the 60-minute wash with a foot soak, paid with a 1,000,000 VND gift card and kept 30,000 VND on it. _An illustrative story for a demo site; figures are made up._

## Next to it

The [full herbal head spa](/en/treatments/herbal-hair-wash/herbal-head-spa): 90 minutes, 720,000 VND. A dry scalp massage before the wash, three rinses instead of two, a hair mask and a blow dry.

## Call first, or choose another session, if

- An open wound or broken skin on the scalp: tell us when booking so the front desk can call first; we do not wash over skin that has not closed.
- You react to scents (lemongrass, bồ kết, pomelo leaf): tick that box when booking and the front desk will call before confirming.
- Pregnant: the hair wash can still be booked; tick the pregnancy box so the front desk can call you first.

Lụa Spa offers non-invasive skin care and relaxation. We do not inject, use lasers or needling, prescribe, diagnose, or replace a doctor.

## Questions about this session

### 45 or 60 minutes?

The wash itself is the same: two herbal rinses, scalp and neck massage, towel dry. The 60-minute session adds 15 minutes of shoulder massage. The difference is 120,000 VND (360,000 against 480,000 VND).

### Is my hair blow-dried?

Not in the 45 or 60-minute wash; your hair is towel dried. For a blow dry, book the 90-minute herbal head spa at 720,000 VND.

### Is it good for my hair?

We do not claim that. It is relaxation care, not a hair or scalp treatment. If something about your scalp lasts, please see a doctor.
