New lounge-style design from Minerva delivers spa-grade comfort, modern aesthetics, and fast nationwide shipping.

Minerva Beauty's Seraya Head Spa System features a comfortable lounger for ultimate client relaxation.
Minerva Beauty, a leading U.S. manufacturer and distributor of professional salon and spa equipment, announced the launch of its new head spa systems. Designed for salons, barbershops, and spas offering premium wellness services, the lounge-style bed features a gently curved body-support design, soft commercial-grade upholstery, and ergonomic stability for a comfortable experience. The new units provide the versatility needed for scalp exfoliation and massage, intensive conditioning or detox treatments, and lash or beauty services that call for comfortable, extended recline. All new models are available now at minervabeauty.com.
Every in-stock head spa bed ships within 1–2 business days from Minerva’s headquarters in Monroe, Georgia, ensuring stylists and spa professionals can quickly expand their service offerings and boost client comfort without long lead times. Businesses can also leverage simple financing right at checkout through Klarna or work directly with Brickhouse Capital to finance equipment and potentially other build-out costs.
From head spa therapy and sensory scalp treatments to multi-service beauty sessions, the head spa bed supports elevated service delivery without sacrificing efficiency. The design features a built-in headrest for added neck support and comes in two versatile finishes — Black and Light Cashmere —so professionals can match their aesthetic with ease. The bed and shroud are proudly made in the United States, offering dependable quality you can feel.
Each unit includes a UPC-certified ceramic shampoo bowl, a preinstalled drain assembly, a spray hose, and a flexible drain line, which simplify installation while complying with North American safety standards (UPC/cUPC). Pair with our technician stools for improved ergonomics and reduced practitioner strain.

“There are plenty of head spa systems on the market, but many are overbuilt and overly complicated,” said Megan Ferlito, VP of Marketing & Business Development at Minerva Beauty. “We designed a head spa bed that’s luxurious, comfortable, and simple—crafted in the U.S. with an ergonomic design that delivers exceptional client comfort, timeless style, and an attractive price point professionals can appreciate.”
The new head spa bed also transforms everyday shampoo services into a more calming, restorative experience, delivering elevated comfort for traditional backwash services in both salon and spa environments. Its non-electrical design ensures reliable, low-maintenance operation and a smooth workflow for stylists and technicians.
