Grease Is the Word

Rescue Hair and Scalp Treatment

Everybody loves an ancient Chinese secret.

Acupuncture. Herbal remedies. Really, really greasy hair.

Yes, greasiness is next to godliness, according the folks at Nusta Spa. They’re now offering the Hair and Scalp Rescue Treatment, in which Chinese camellia oil (said to have therapeutic and revitalizing properties) is massaged onto your scalp and throughout your hair.

Your tresses are then wrapped in warm towels, and while the oil soaks in, you’re given a sublime neck and shoulder massage.

It’s recommended that you leave the oil in for the whole day to allow it to fully hydrate and reinvigorate hair and create even more luster. (You may want to plan on spending your time indoors.) Once washed, however, your mane will be incredibly soft and shiny.

And that’s not likely to remain a secret for long.

Available at Nusta Spa, 1129 20th Street NW, between L and M Streets (202-530-5700).
