• Ask what is in the program, such as a scalp check, mask or styling.
• Ask whether the listed time includes drying and styling.
• Price depends on the program and products used, so ask for the full price, not only the deposit.

• Many listings in this category are general hair salons, so check that the shop offers a head spa program.

1. Pick two or three shops near where you are staying. The neighborhoods above are where most listings are.
2. Send each shop the same questions: the total price with tax, whether it is per person, whether English is available, and the deposit and cancellation rule.
3. Compare the written answers. Booking-site banners are often promotions and change without notice.
4. For lasers, injections or anything a doctor does, read the treatment page first and ask the clinic for its registration to treat foreign patients.
