Re: Where to get a haircut in Dubai
I used to have it short when I was younger, problem is I look like a criminal! And I don't mean a gangster or some cool crook, oh no, I look like a football hooligan with a funny shaped head and a bust nose from too many fights - not a great look!

Re: Where to get a haircut in Dubai
My hubby goes to hair at pyramids (as you can guess its at Pyramids at Wafi), mainly british stylists in there and is predominantly ladies salon but obviously they do do mens as well and there is a male stylist. Not sure of the price but guessing about £20ish they tend to "cut" a short style rather than just pull the clippers out. Victoria is the person that does his.

Re: Where to get a haircut in Dubai
"Julian's" certainly does sound poncey! Any ideas on how much they charge? I don't think I could expense a hair cut so my Northern roots forbid me to pay anything over £20 for a hair cut (my Scottish roots say don't spend more than £3.50 but I've learned to ignore them!)
I wouldn't call it cheap. (20 quid that is)
Even by London standards. In Woking I used to pay 11.50 and thought it was a rip-off after paying 6.50 in Walsall.
Here I pay AED 35 but that includes a wash and dry and what's effectively a massage and a nice chat about geopolitics (the guy is Iraqi after all)

Traitor!!!!! You said 10 quid was alright!!!!

What a bunch of poofters! Just go to any Indian barber in Karama and pay AED15 for a pefectly good haircut. Yes, they have those electric trimmers as well as scissors. Been using them for over 8 years in Jeddah and Dubai with no complaints yet...no sarcastic remarks from MH please.
