Beauty Salons in Riyadh ??
Hi there , I'm looking for a beauty salon that my wife can go to . Hopefully where they speak English . We live near in Al Rayan district near Carrefour Kruais Road or Eastern Ring Road Exits 13-14 so anywhere near there would be great .
I've looked on the internet and the only ones I seem to able to find are in the city and we would rather not go all the way there for a haircut etc.
Any help appreciated . Thnx .

Normally you find hairdressers etc by word of mouth. Just ask around. When I was there there were no lady hairdressers etc that you could see from the road unlike the gents where there seem to be thousands. Many work from their homes. It is not encouraged in Saudi for women to meet in large numbers etc other than family gatherings so all rather secretive. There was a hairdressers on the Arabian compound and I am sure some of the other large ones will have them.

Of course I am talking about when I was there 1990 to 1997, could be different now.

Thanks , we've found one now anyway . One of the English women who stays in the same building told us about a salon not too far away . It was at a gym by the Jarir bookstore .
