Great Mens Hairdressers in Dubai?

[funkyant]

Ok, so I've been here for almost 3 months and had 2 really bad haircuts. Rather than working my way through every salon in Dubai, can anyone here recommend somebody that is great?

Preferably somebody a little creative. And I'm totally OK with getting my hair cut by camp gay men - they are usually the best haha!

Cheers!

You've had TWO cuts in THREE months! Bloody hell!

Two places (says the AED10 special bloke...)

There's a salon in Emirates Towers that's expensive but spot on, failing that in the mall opposite Jumeriah Mosque upstairs called Couterie or something, Arab guys from Syria and Lebanon in there.

You settling in well then?

Thanks Andy.

Remember, I'm working for Armani? I can't believe how strict they are!! As soon as I arrived, they made me cut my hair, because it was too long. Hated that haircut, so got another a month later, which I also hated.

This may sound a little pretentious, but when I'm in the DJ box at Armani every night with a **** haircut, I don't exactly feel confident.

Where exactly is Emirates Towers?


Aside from the haircuts, I am really starting to settle in here. I got off to a very shaky start after a very messy breakup, leaving my girl of 4 years back home - but now I'm starting to look forward rather than backward and I'm starting to enjoy myself

Glad to hear you're doing OK, I would have thought that the guys from Armani would know...

Emirates Towers are the 2 (great looking and imho the best designed buildings in Dubai) triangular buildings on the land side (ie right when heading from Jebel Ali into Dubai) of SZR, one is an office tower, the other is the commercial tower, there's a small arcade downstairs, you'd like the shops.

And then there's the infamous Scarlets bar....

Has time out dubai not done an article on male spas and hairdressers? Might be worth a look.

Thanks. I know those buildings. I'll check it out.

Now I know why it's been over 2 years since I've had a hair cut. My hair is down to the middle of my back and have less trouble taking care of it than it sounds like you do.....
GOOD LUCK on your search....

OHHHHH... you have not cut our hair in two years?? !! And you actually told people on a forum that ! HEHE...

All fun aside, I LOVE long hair but if you dont take care of it, trimming the ends, good shampoo, conditioning it, not keeping it in a ponytail , then it looks like crap. I see so many women walking around with terrible hair but the men who do not care for their hair is just atrocious! Way to go Mr Funky for searching out someone to care for your locks.

I hope you Mr Vette, your hair is well cared for and not rockin the split ends pony tail look

Good luck on the cut!! I just go to my peer for a trim on the edges until I get home for a real cut as can not trust just anyone with my hair.

Jynx,
I have to admit I spend alot of money on hair care products to ensure that "split end pony tail" thing doesn't happen. I use top shelf shampoo, conditioner and treatments.
