I have been hypnotised by those head spa ASMR videos while scrolling through TikTok.

My scalp is begging for that deep clean, scrub-till-you-drop treatment, but here’s the kicker: all the heavenly head spas seem to be in China or Vietnam.

Of course, I’ve commented “TAKE MY MONEY!” on those TikTok head spa videos like everyone else. Thus, I made it my personal mission to find these relaxing sessions across the border — in Johor Bahru (JB), Malaysia, to be exact. Here are the best head spas in JB I found.

Price conversions are approximate and accurate at the time of writing.
