What is a "head steamer"?

A head steamer, related to personal care, is a device that emits gentle steam to provide a spa-like treatment for the hair and scalp. It typically consists of a hood or cap that is placed over the head, connected to a steam generator. The steam helps to open up the hair follicles, allowing deep conditioning treatments or treatments like oil or hair masks to penetrate more effectively. The heat and moisture from the steam also promote blood circulation, hydrate the scalp, and can help alleviate dryness, itchiness, and dandruff. Head steamers are commonly used in salons and can also be found as portable or home-use devices, offering a luxurious and relaxing experience for improved hair and scalp health.
