My 3-Step Hair Spa Routine at Home (Under ₹1000, No Salon Needed)

Let’s be honest — salon hair spas are expensive, time-consuming, and half the time you walk out wondering if it was even worth it.

This one? It works. Every single time. And I do it right at home in my pyjamas with a playlist on.

It’s a 3-step process. Takes 45 mins tops. Cost? Way less than one salon visit. Plus, the products I use are all under ₹1000 — and linked below in case you want to try them (yes, affiliate, you know the drill).

Step 1: Oiling + Scalp Massage

Product: 2 in 1 Scalp Massager Brush
🛒 Buy on Amazon

This is the product that changed how I oil my hair. I use it with coconut or onion oil and it feels like I’m melting the week’s stress away. The soft silicone bristles improve blood circulation and help your scalp actually absorb the oil.

How I do it:
Apply oil, then massage with this brush in slow circles. Five minutes. That’s it. Bonus: Reduces dandruff and makes shampooing easier later.

Step 2: Steam

Product: HealthSense NanoSteamer Pro
🛒 Buy on Amazon

I know, I know — it’s for your face. But trust me, this facial steamer works like magic when you point it toward your hair. I steam for 5–7 minutes to open up the hair cuticles, which helps the oil go deeper.

It makes your hair mask (step 3) 2x more effective.

Step 3: Hair Mask or Deep Conditioning

Product: Professional Vitariche Hair Masque or DIY curd + aloe + honey mask

🛒 Buy on Amazon

If you don’t have a hair mask, don’t stress. Mix curd, aloe vera gel, and honey — apply root to tip. Leave it for 20 mins, rinse, and shampoo normally.

For lazy days, the mask is super affordable and does a fab job at softening dry ends and frizz.

Don’t skip this step. It’s what seals the whole spa vibe.

Final Word: The Salon’s Overrated

With the right tools, a little consistency, and your own vibe — you can bring spa luxury home, without shelling out ₹2000 every two weeks. This routine is simple, affordable, and real.

And if you ever feel too tired to do the whole thing, just start with the scalp massage. Even that one step can feel like therapy.
