Lefkothea · Discover your beauty
Your hair salon and Korean Head Spa in the heart of Heraklion, Crete. Whether you live here or you're visiting the island, step in and let our specialists take care of you. Five minutes from the centre, on Knossou Avenue.
About us
Our name is borrowed from Leukothea, the 'white goddess' of the sea who, as the myth goes, rescued Odysseus from the storm. It is not entirely a coincidence — Lefkothea is also the name of the owner and head hairdresser, who simply wanted to build the kind of space she would love to come to herself. We liked the idea: a shelter in the heart of Heraklion where you leave your own storm at the door. Our team pairs everyday salon care — cutting, color, treatments — with wellness rituals like the Korean Head Spa, so you always leave lighter than you arrived. We're on Knossou Avenue, an easy visit for clients from across Heraklion — Nea Alikarnassos, Poros, Therisso, Mastampas, Agios Ioannis, Mesampelies, the historic center, and the neighborhoods around them.

Crete's Newest Beauty Ritual
A deeply relaxing ritual born from Korean beauty tradition, now in Heraklion. Lie back as warm water, gentle scalp massage, and herbal oils wash the day away — a spa experience most visitors have never tried before.

Amazing experience at the Korean Head Spa! The scalp massage was completely relaxing and my hair held its shape beautifully for weeks.
