Hehe. Glad you know now what wet cut is. Save your self 100++ Dhs for not doing blow dry. To be honest, I find it rip off to charge double just to give a blow dry with a cut. Many salons don't offer cut without blow dry and that's weird. Or it's just a Dubai thing. ? I also find less famous salon's hairdressers are more humble if you compare them with famous & arrogant hair stylists.

hello ladies, are there any good suggestions for a hair cut salon (preferably near DIFC :D ) This is my first try in dxb.. any good, not so very expensive salon recommendations please:) If you dont mind driving to Jumeirah then Soni and Vicky @ Cut Above are good hairdressers. Wet cut costs around 180 Dhs with them. Essential Salon near Park n Shop also used to have good hairdresser &amp;amp; same charges. sLaM has good hairdresser but its over rated. I will never pay more than 200 Dhs for a haircut. There are plenty of salons charging under 200 Dhs and doing a great job. I have been to both cut above and Essential and they were both close to 300 dhs for a cut and blowdry, Essential was 295 dhs to be precise. Cut above I think I paid 250 dhs. Are you having cut without blowdry? Yes silvstet, I normally go for cut only without blow dry. I find it useless to get it blow dried as I like to see movements and layers without blowdrying. A good cut should look good without Any extra effort. I specifically mentioned wet cut because many salons don't offer "wet cut only" , instead They offer Cut+Blow dry.... That comes to around 300+ Dhs Sorry for not making it clear. ? Thanks, I didn't know what a wet cut was thought you meant they cut your hair while its still wet, which is normal ? I never dare to ask for a haircut without blowdry, always imagine they will look at me as I am cheap ? Funnily enough when I am having colour I always tell the I don't want a blowdry, as they need to blowdry the hair anyway to see if it's good!

Thanks for the recommendations. I am also new and need all these info. Can anyone recommend a good place for anti frizz treatment like keratin or blowout ? Most of the places coming in Google search or expat woman recommendations are very Expensive. Starting from 1500 Dhs ? Can anyone please recommend a place with reasonable price and good results?. I am not looking for groupon like deals. Thank you. For this, I can highly recommend Aliza @Beauty Plus salon in Satwa (you can google for contact details). She does all kind of hair treatments and price range is normally around 800-1000 Dhs for medium hair. Try to bargain with her as much as you can ?. She is excellent in her work and not expensive at all.

I had my haircut for the first time in Dubai today, I've had some shocking haircuts so am quite particular, so also did a fair amount of research before booking. I went to hair works in ibn battuta (so not that close to DIFC), it cost 300aed, which it seems is quite expensive from the previous comments, but, i'm used to these prices from London, and can recommend Gemma who did a great job.
