Curls just want to have fun… 

Are you tired of going to the hairdressers and being asked, “would you like a blow dry?”. Or are you looking to start your curly hair journey and embrace your natural curls? It’s time you found a curly hair salon. Most hairdressers are not trained in cutting or styling curly hair, so it’s no surprise that many salons don’t have the knowledge and facilities to make your curls pop like never before. But it’s 2024: We’re (finally) saying goodbye to the straighteners and embracing our natural curls for good.

Here are 5 of the best curly hair salons to try in Dubai: 

Aveda

For a luxurious hair salon experience, Aveda is the place to be. Relax with a complimentary head, neck, and shoulder massage while sipping herbal tea and taking in the stunning skyline views, then enjoy a pampering hair wash in plush massage chairs. Although not exclusively a curly hair salon, Aveda’s newly-launched Be Curly range enhances your natural curls, leaving them vibrant and moisturised. Plus, all products are vegan and made with 99 per cent natural ingredients for minimum damage to your hair and the environment. For the perfect colour, cut, and curls, ask for master hair stylist, Lyudmilla and thank us later.
