I had the opposite, last weekend we were going out for dinner, both the Ribroom in Zabeel Saray and Hunters in the Westin were fully booked until 9 pm. We always go out early and managed to get a table at the Porterhouse in the Sofitel in the end. It wasn't full there, but busy. The bar was packed. And I was making the reservation a two days in advance. The shops in the malls are just too expensive, people do shop and ship or like me shop on holidays, almost anywhere is cheaper than the Dubai shops. Rental prices has been going down slightly. This is maybe a weird comment, but there are a lot more cheaper cars on the roads like Kia and Hyundai, while before you saw more Prados or Volvo for families. I was at the Zabeel Saray on Friday and it was very busy as was JLT later in the evening . I agree about the shopping, Last Saturday I was talking to one of the Managers at Debenhams and he said a lot of people use SnS and online sites as they have caught on that it is cheaper to do that

Why do I smell advertising in this thread? :confused: SLaM is an over rated salon in my opinion. It's just an other high end salon, ripping off client, spending on marketing/advertising and we are paying cost of that as well. Why do people just want to pay double for the similar service, just because Someone is more "talked about". When "Everyone" knows about something, that means their marketing is really doing good job. It is not possible, that all woman from EW go to same salon, and all are happy about the service. There are few like mine, who prefer to keep their mouth shut for some reason and don't brag about "accident" that happened at the same very "talked about" salon. I am just sick and tired of seeing posts saying, " you get what you pay for". This can not be implemented here. There are extremely expensive and bad salons in Jumeirah yet there are some good and economical salons in Deira or Bur Dubai also. I used to pay 150 Dhs for the haircut, my same hairdresser moved to some salon in Jumeirah. Suddenly her prices were up by double.... Why on earth I would pay double price to same person, for same service? I cannot count the amount of cheaper salons here that don't have a clue how to colour blond hair and slap neat bleach on your hair and then it ends up falling out in clumps! I will pay slightly more for a good hairdresser and Ali is a very good hairdresser with whom I have had never had any disasters ( When she was at Salon Ink and now at Slam) I am fortunate as a friend does mine at home and it costs me peanuts but when I have to go to a salon and will go and see her. The proof is in the pudding and if I have to pay more than so be it. Maybe others have had "accidents" however I never have so I will continue to see her. People will always go to salons based on recommendations, that's Dubai.

Yes, that is quite pricey. I don't want to learn to apply it for others but rather would like some pointers on doing mine. Techniques change from year to year and I would like to know the latest and greatest. Thanks! I learnt via Youtube and they even tell you which products to buy. I learnt how to contour, apply smoky eye eyeshadow without looking like Beetlejuice. Most of the sites are up to date with colours/products etc makeupbyeman is great to watch

Hi, I have recently returned from th States where the outlets are fantastic. I've just seen the Dubai outlet shop list. Are the prices/stores good? I really want a dkny bag and forgot to buy one in the states so I am hoping I can get it in Dubai instead ? I haven't been for around 6 months but to be honest I don't really rate the place I don't remember seeing cheap DKNY handbags but they I wasn't really looking You may find cheaper online

Afternoon ? I have been offered an entertainer book for c£20 with not too many vouchers used. I have never had one before, so want to know if you think this is good value for money given there are only 3 months left of the year to use this? (I move to Dubai in October) Do the entertainer company usually reduce book prices towards the end of the year? I note they are still full price and I don't really want to pay that when I could wait to pay full price in Jan 16. Thanks! They don't reduce the cost of the book. You only need to use one voucher and will of saved money from buying the book.

I have some dinner to attend in 2 days anddddd I had loads and loads of olives yesterday night. Right now I am puffy from everywhere and 2 kilos water weight :cry::cry: These Google search remedies never work on me. Plzzzzzzzz pretty ladies give me some remedies to get rid of this ASAP. :cry: You wont get rid of 2 kilos in 2 days however I use Lasix from the pharmacy when my feet swell and they also help with swelling elsewhere Take them around 6pm and make sure you are near a toilet as you will need to go often. These are not a long term fix and speak to the pharmacist first before you take them

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:) put hairdresser in the search post there are many to chose from Most of the cheaper hairdressers are based around Satwa/Bur Dubai/Deira Cheap here does not necessarily mean good, you tend to pay for what you get Most salons charge on average 200 for a cut then another cost for blow dry

Kite beach and the beach down towards Burj Al Arab has free parking on Fridays. And also the secret beach (palace beach) opposite Knowledge Village is always free parking. Kite Beach isn't free to park :-( It used to be AED20 for the day now it has shot up to AED50 and if you don't get there early ( before 11am) there is a huge queue to get in Some of the streets around Jumeriah don't have paid parking :biggrin:

Hey everyone, I've lived here for 9 months and am still the same colour as when I left the UK in January! So I would like to spend a day on a nice beach in Dubai. I will be coming with a car so would prefer somewhere with free parking, I was looking at Mamzar beach which is 5 AED entry on foot but AED 40 by car! Is there anywhere nearby to park up? Or can anyone recommend another nice beach with parking? Thanks! Most of the decent ones on Beach road cost the same now :-( We park in and around Jumeriah where it is free and walk over. The sea is still like getting into a hot bath at the moment though

3 of my friends who left Dubai are now back and one is trying to get back here They hated the UK and struggled to settle there. We will always have people who leave and many who come. I love going home but cannot see myself settling there just yet. What is wrong with the UK? Why does everyone hate it there!? None of my friends went to the UK - they've gone to Canada, South Africa, the US and Europe which might be why they are so happy? Is the rule, "go home unless you are from the UK and in that case, stay as long as humanly possible?" They seem to complain about cost of living ( taxes) weather and social life I don't think everyone hates it there. I know of several people who have gone back and love it I imagine it depends on where you live, your social and family circle and your job/salary etc

DH is changing jobs. His former employer say it takes up to a week for his visa to be cancelled. His new employer say it takes up to 20 working days for new visa to be issued and he normally cannot start until new visa is issued. Is this normal? Do people normally have to take a month break without pay between changing jobs? . If a company has a good PRO then the visa can be cancelled the same day or within 24 hours. Visa approval for a new role usually only takes 7-10 day working days. Only during periods such as Ramadan etc can they take longer.

It was interesting to see the polls regarding the EU referendum. Before this crisis more UK people were for staying in the EU now it has swung the other way and economists have predicted that more people will vote to leave in 2017. Hungary is now putting pressure on Germany not to allow so many through and they are threatening to close the Serbian border . The main thing that does concern me is the security risk, as many have destroyed their passports and identification thus they cannot be identified which is a huge security risk

Hi Fellow Members, I have just been thinking about getting this procedure done.. anybody has experience of the same? I am not really sure which doctor would be good and not really sure how much should I keep my budget to be.. Can any one help me pick a good doctor in Dubai.. !! Also, is Fat transfer a better option... considering the fact that I am basically "fat-less" and may have lil fat on my belly.. which would be good if I get rid of though :) or Going for implants.. Really clueless... o_O I don't know anyone that had a "fat transfer augmentation" but I have plenty spare if you need any ;-) I had saline implants with Dr Jafar Khan 4 years ago. No problems with anything, back to work in 2 days and the best thing I ever did. As I was a 34AA cup! I paid AED24,000 but they are now AED30,000 and his waiting lists can be long I had the procedure done at Belhoul in Satwa as it was cheaper than the American Hospital and his team were fantastic and soothed my initial nerves whilst going into theatre ( They were all really funny which helped) Good Luck

We have been planning to leave UAE for some time. I don't know how things are going in other countries, but for us , we fel like we are caged here. We don't have issue financially, it's just that socially thigs are getting unacceptable. We are fed of day to day issues (disputes with landlord, Maintainance companies, poor services, expenssive sub standard clothing,) discrimination.... everyone seems like taking advantage of you being a good human. I am also tired of being judged because of what I believe in (my faith as per papers is different- I can't change my religion because of the laws ). I am a professional, making good money. But is it always about money? Financial aspect was one thing, that was holding me back. I know wherever I go, I can make a decent living. The question is, which country is safe and give "freedom of religion" and least racist?. I do hope, I can get residence on investment basis. All this Syrian crisis, I don't see many countries are going to be as safe now, including UAE it self. Any suggestion? Countries good for small businesses (don't mind paying taxes). Most likely, not a very religious country. Where we can at least make enough for survival. What passport do you hold? That may make a difference as to where you can move to for work purposes

The above isn't true at all My passport expired in June 2015 and I travelled into the UK in Feb 2015 I didn't get my new passport until May 2015 and now have to carry two passports as my Dubai visa is in my old one. The UK will let you in even with only a month left on your passport and the UAE as long as your visa is valid. I did panic a bit when travelling but immigration just checked and waved me through at Manchester and Dubai.

I have lived here for 9 years and feel far safer here than I do in the UK The Police and other security agencies are on the ball when it comes to any dodgy activity and you will read in the local news here that anyone engaging in that sort of behavior will be imprisoned or deported with immediate effect.Some hospitals do have British midwives :-) so no need to worry about that. As for family being so far away, many of my friends had their Mums over for the first few months to help with the babies and many ladies have maids. Breast feeding is actively encouraged and some of the malls have lovely rooms for feeding mums. Some of the ladies toilets here are far more superior than those at home My ex Husband and many of my friends at home are military and we have lived in places where we had to be very security aware yes there is crime in the UAE however I have never witnessed or been a victim of it. The powers that be in the UAE make sure we are all safe

How does the system work? My husband bought a car last summer which was insured and registered in his name as I was away. Now it is time to renew registration. Even though I'm the main driver can it still be insured under my husbands name? Or how do I go about changing car into my name? Pop down to the registration place in Barsha Mall, they are really helpful

I came out of my building in JLT this morning to see that someone had bashed into my car on the passenger side. They then had obviously driven off and hadn't left a note or anything. Firstly they must have astounding driving skills, as even reversing out of a space they had a long way to go to hit my car, so they clearly have no spatial awareness. It is a rental car, and I'm vaguely aware I need a police report but I had to go to work so I'm now at work trying to figure out what to do? Bring it to the nearest police station? Can anyone advise? I will also be stalking every white car in my carpark the next few weeks to see if my paint is on their back bumper!! You have to take it to the closest police station to where the accident happened. Jebel Ali will be closest one. Explain that someone hit it and drove off. Make sure you get the green paper to give to the insurers. ( Don't get the pink as that means it is your fault) have you reported it to the hire car company?

Tenants are supposed to only advise if they are moving out ( 3 months before expiry) If they do not contact said LL then is it the assumption that the tenancy will run for a further year. As a tenant I have always informed my LL if I was leaving or if staying when to come and collect the cheques etc. I don't think the LL could of done anything or start the process at RERA until the tenancy had expired.

Come on, everyone, aren't we a bit overreacting? If some women want to bleach their skin- so what? Why do we bother going to a hairdresser to dye our natural gray hair? Why paint our nails and use eyelash extensions when we have these beautiful pale lashes no one can see? And really, what's with the orange people? Why do they think that orange is a good color for their skin? Obviously, they think it's beautiful so why not just leave them alone. My grandma used face bleach cream all her life and my feisty protests and photos of beautiful ginger women were simply ignored because in her mind lots of freckles on her face was not pretty, and nothing could convince her of the opposite, even though she used to have a lot of admirers, a successful career, a loving husband and beautiful children. So if someone wants a bleached skin, just leave her alone and let her bleach it all she wants. I don't think anyone is over reacting with regards to the comments that pale skin is far superior There is enough tosh in the media leading to young girls having body dysmorphia, eating disorders, cosmetic surgery etc. Whilst I appreciate it is up to an adult to do what she wants with her body we shouldn't be encouraging women to bleach their skin. I hardly think nail varnish and false eyelashes compare with bleaching your skin and removing pigment which as sunbeds etc can cause skin cancer. .
