Located just west of Asheville in Candler, Jenna’s one on one salon and head spa is a space where your scalp, your hair and your nervous system all get the personal attention they deserve.

What Makes the Head Spa So Special

Jenna’s head spa is more than a wash or scalp massage. It is a sensory rich, therapeutic ritual inspired by traditional Japanese head spa practices and supported by modern scalp science. Expect deep cleansing, scalp analysis, nourishing oils, gentle steam, aromatherapy and hydrating conditioning treatments that support both relaxation and scalp health.

It helps with dryness, irritation, buildup, thinning hair and tension, and it is also for anyone who simply needs a reset.

A Cozy and Private Sanctuary

One of the most delightful surprises about Jenna’s space is how cozy, beautiful and aesthetically pleasing it is. It feels warm and curated in a way that makes your shoulders soften the moment you arrive. The space reflects Jenna herself: gentle, loving and intentional in every detail. Nothing is rushed and nothing is transactional. You feel cared for the entire time.

The logistics make the experience even easier. Parking is right outside the door, so there is no circling, no meters and no stress. The studio is private, so you are never sharing the space with other guests. And best of all, you do not have to worry about walking in the rain and ruining your freshly styled hair. You step from sanctuary to car in seconds.
For a service that is so sensory and relaxing, that privacy and ease are part of the luxury.

It’s All Connected

One of the most beautiful things about Jenna’s approach is her belief that the scalp is connected to far more than we realize. Scalp health influences circulation, hair growth, oil balance and tension patterns, but it also touches stress, overwhelm and nervous system regulation. A head spa might not be the first thing you think of when you think of wellness, but once you experience it, it makes sense.

The treatment nourishes the hair, but it also nourishes the mind. You leave feeling grounded and more aware of how much you have been holding.

A Menu Designed to Meet You Where You Are

Jenna offers three head spa options, ranging from shorter refresh sessions to longer, immersive treatments with added massage and sensory comforts. Each appointment is fully customized based on your scalp’s needs, beginning with a detailed scalp assessment.

Cut and Color That Grow With You

In addition to head spa treatments, Jenna specializes in natural looking cuts and color that grow out beautifully and work with your lifestyle without constant upkeep. Her philosophy is simple: hair should make you feel like yourself, just more supported and more cared for.

The Takeaway

Whether you are seeking scalp rehabilitation, sensory relaxation or a moment to reconnect with yourself, Jenna’s head spa offers something rare and restorative. It is thoughtful, private and designed to make you feel held from the first moment to the last.

You leave with healthier hair, a calmer nervous system and the pleasant realization that self care can be nourishing and attainable.
