Walking by the salon for the first time I thought I might have been in Paris for a moment. The understated decor was accentuated by the larger than life mirrors, leaning against the walls in front of every chair. My stylist was Miki and it's seems he previously had Shiatsu training because just getting a shampoo and rinse was an experience in it's self. I've had scalp massages before from Japanese salons but this went above and beyond. Once the hot towels (with a drop of aromatherapy) are placed over your face you just want to curl up and fall asleep. Then there's the hot towel ear massage. When we finished at the shampoo station I realized we had just begun...my haircut still awaited. Miki was meticulous and thorough leaving me with a fantastic haircut. Then there came the neck and shoulder massage...the experience was too good to be true.
