Best gift ever? This 'heavenly' scalp massager arrives by Valentine's Day
5,000+ shoppers give the waterproof gadget 5 stars: 'Like hiring a team of tiny, determined hands to knead you into submission.'
A very important heads up: We're just one week out from Cupid's big ol' day of love. If you haven't gotten your special someone a Valentine's Day gift yet, there are plenty of last-minute options that will arrive on time (and aren't lame, believe it or not). Of course flowers are a must, but why not up the romance even more with a massage? No, not a super pricey spa day — an at-home massage. That's where the Comfier Electric Scalp Massager comes in, and it's just $33.
This little gizmo is a 2-for-1 gift since it's designed to relieve stress and stimulate hair growth.
This gizmo has four mini massage heads and 84 nodes that rotate in opposite directions to stimulate the scalp, mimicking human fingers. It pushes, pulls, kneads and scratches, which is all anyone really wants in a successful head massage.
Even better? It's also totally waterproof, so it can be used in the shower (use it with your shampoo for a deep clean) or the bath. Throw in a scented candle and a shower steamer or bath bomb and voilà — instant spa day at home.
This "heavenly" massager gets a five-star stamp of approval from over 5,000 fans.
"I love this thing!" exclaimed one Amazon shopper. "I don't have thick hair. Plus, lately, my hair seems to shed a lot for a woman. I have been using it consistently [for three months]. My hair is not shedding all over the place now like it was. Plus, I am seeing new hair growth sprouting all over. I can't wait to see the difference in a few months."
Another five-star reviewer wrote: "So relaxing after a stressful day. Definitely helps loosen the tension."
"Best head massager," shared a third fan. "Doesn't get tangled in your hair and has different modalities. I use it nearly every day for my scalp pain. If you are someone like me who has inflammation and is prone to headaches, don't walk … run and buy this. I should have gotten this sooner."
Meanwhile, this "happy camper" isn't just using it on their scalp: "I use it on my hands and feet mostly. It's the closest I've tried to having human fingers do a massage on those parts." They also added that "the first charge lasted longer than I thought it would."
"This little device is like hiring a team of tiny, determined hands to knead your scalp into submission," said this final reviewer. However, they did add this caveat: "Occasionally, it gets a bit aggressive, leaving me wondering if it's trying to massage my head or drill for oil."
Lean into the Valentine's Day spirit with this cute pink massager.
Oh, and it's not just for humans. According to one shopper, their "dog absolutely loves it." (And we all know how picky our pets can be.)
If you want to amp up the at-home spa experience on a budget, add some shower steamers to the mix. All your Valentine needs to do is pop one onto the shower floor and let the calming aroma envelope them.
These little mess-free tablets slowly dissolve as they release their relaxing scent.
"These are so relaxing," wrote a five-star reviewer. "They smell amazing and really do help calm you down and make you feel like you're in a spa. I got these as a gift and have purchased them two more times."
If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)
