The Perfect (Cheap!) Self Massage Product for Your Scalp

Self massage can feel blissful with a tool like this!

So I was doing some Christmas shopping over the long-ago holidays, when I saw what I thought was a whisk in the bath products section of a store. It struck me as strange, so I took a closer look. It wasn’t a whisk at all, but a head massager that looked a bit like a whisk. Skeptical, I pointed it out to my hubby, laughed and carried on with my day.

Then a couple of days later, I went over to Jenn’s for breakfast and saw that she had the crazy head-whisk self-massage tool. She insisted I try it, and I didn’t want to put the thing down. I got chills up and down my spine, and I was in head-massage tingly scalp heaven. I immediately attacked my husband when he returned to the room from a diaper change and insisted he try it NOW. He had a similar blissed-out reaction. Ahhhh.

I’m not even kidding when I say that within a couple of days we had picked up a few of them—one for us, one for his sister and one for his parents. The thing is amazing. You know how good it feels when someone else gives you a shampoo? It’s like that—with dozens of tiny fingers. As a cheap relaxation device, you can’t beat it! Mine was only $3.99, but you can get great deals out there, like this three-pack for less than $8.

Now, the wonderful sensation is at its maximum effectiveness the first minute. Your scalp gets used to it and then it only feels just good. But whip it out once a day for a minute or so when you’re stressed and you will be one happy camper!

Have you tried this crazy device? Love it as much as I do? Or are you too relaxed to respond? —Erin
