HELP: Where to cut my hair in Kuwait?
By danderma | August 19, 2010
Help!
I am the biggest Salon Gobesa in Q8. If you follow me on twitter you may recall my epic tweets on getting highlights in a respectable well known salon in Q8 and how it went severely wrong.
Now I am in desperate need of cutting my hair. Not just a trim, a good respectable hair cut. I was planning on cutting it in the same salon i had my highlights in and they cut well with a heat thing scissors b3d… but I vowed never to go back therefore I’m now lost. I literally lost, I have no place I’d trust to cut my hair.
I need a place that is: Professional, Clean, Respects their Clients and their Appointments, Do not allow someone to cut in before you unannounced, and they would be able to give me a modern hair cut without too much philosophical notions and experiments. The Hairdresser should have what is called “Green Hands” too. All British Salons are out for they choke when they see my hair (So no Tony & Guy or Cutting Edge or Strands). Carita is out too, so is La Mode.
Where do i go for a haircut? Help Me out Please!

What about 5 Senses? I haven’t tried it personally but heard it’s good….. I don’t follow you on Twitter but would you mind telling me what happened (and where) with your highlights? its always good to know about potential places to avoid in Kuwait!
danderma on August 20, 2010 at 00:23.
I will email you my disaster tomorrow
5 senses? Awal marra asm3 feeh? Where is it ?

Toni & Guy – Al Corniche – Ask for Allison
I reviewed it on my blog too

danderma on August 20, 2010 at 00:24.
I tried toni & guy before and my experience wasn’t that great. The service is good but the end result was horrible…

I go to a place called Thai Lana in Salmiya. It’s small, quaint, cute, clean and the staff is very friendly. I used to go to Strands, but I didn’t see anything special about it– and i always used to walk out 20+ KD less out of my pocket. One of the owners of Thai Lana is named May (she is Thai), and she is the one that cuts hair. She’s great, and a cut is only 5KD! I referred them to one of my friends, and now she’s a regular there as well
Here is their info:

Sounds intriguing… Thanks

That’s where I go! Cut your hair 3end Mei. She’s amazing. Ever since she’s been cutting my hair, I haven’t gotten split ends.
danderma on August 20, 2010 at 22:01.
Thai Lana? Worth a try i suppose

why not the british salons? i just had my hair cut by a british lady and it looks great.
Anyway, there’s Yours -next to texas chicken in shaab albahri (Nadra is good), or layla harmony.
danderma on August 20, 2010 at 00:21.
British hairdressers cannot handle my hair type… i have tried them over and over and over… mako fayda
i am not a fan of layla harmony… but you say Yours Nadra? Let me give them a call tommorow and see…. thanx

danderma on August 20, 2010 at 12:48.
Insha2 Allah i will… you know that is a great idea because we go to Bahrain and Dubai so often we could easily cut our hair their! give me a couple of days…

Elche in Salmiya, its in the newly opened hotel, Elche Spa and Salon, give them a try, my hair’s really difficult to handle but they were great with it!

Try Nina’s Salon 25750202 in Salmiya, I have the same problem British ladies tend to chop my hair off!! But Nina knows exactly when to stop

مادري ليش تذكرت فيديو مصوره زوج عمتي وحنا صغار على بونا نصلي ويخلي القطوة تمر جدامنا وواحد يقول تت والثانية ترد عليه ليش قلت تت بطلت صلاتك وأأأأنا أقول أشونننننننننننننننننني ماقلت تتت ههههههههه
makes sense?
Fatooma on August 21, 2010 at 12:41.
You really need to be careful when you choose your hairdresser, I always book for a blow dry first and try to get to salon a bit early, watch her in action etc.
I would never book a cut just on the word of someone else…..this is my hair we’re talking about!
Emillie is a French stylist, she really is amazing and I dont know about having “green hands” but what I have noticed is that my hair seems to be in much better condition and growing faster since I have been going to her. She is at soho 23902077

Where did you finally go to get a hair cut ?
danderma on December 2, 2012 at 11:46.
Hmmm this is in 2010 right? I think I went to La Mode the newest one in Yarmouk. Then I went to Eden Salon in March 2011 but I didn’t like the haircut much, it wasn’t what I had in mind. I am still on the lookout for the perfect salon though.
