10 Best Hair Salons in Singapore (August 2026)

What makes Chez Vous: HideAway worth the premium is their 15-step TrichoFusion process. Every chemical service (colouring, perming, smoothing) includes built-in scalp and hair repair treatments designed to reduce damage during the service itself, not as an afterthought add-on. The complimentary Tibetan singing bowl shiatsu shampoo massage and the jellyfish-themed wash area feel indulgent without being gimmicky. They also operate a strict no-packages, no-hard-selling policy, which is refreshing in an industry where upselling is the norm.

The salon holds a 4.8-star Google rating and has won over 60 industry awards, including the Editors' Choice Award for Best Female Salon. If you want a salon visit that feels like an event rather than an errand, this is the one.

The salon occupies a quietly luxurious space off Orchard Road, nestled in the greenery near Fort Canning. Their signature head spas are genuinely therapeutic, not just a marketing add-on. The Chapter Three "Living" head spa runs 70 minutes at S$350 and includes a full scalp diagnosis. For chemical services, a complimentary manicure is thrown in, a small touch that signals how the salon thinks about the overall experience rather than just the hair.

Suchehwa positions itself firmly in the premium tier. If your priority is Korean-style perms, natural-looking colour, or a head spa that goes beyond surface-level relaxation, this salon delivers consistently. Clients who have tried multiple Korean salons in Singapore often settle here.

Be Salon has also developed their own perm innovation called Airy Wave, which delivers a lasting, healthy-looking wave without the dry, crunchy texture that cheaper perm treatments often produce. The salon prioritises hair health above commercial upselling: stylists recommend services based on what your hair actually needs, not what generates the highest ticket. That philosophy has built a loyal following among locals who return specifically for the honest advice.

The experience includes complimentary beverages, a relaxing head massage, warm blankets, and phone charging. They will even help you order food from nearby restaurants if your session runs long. It is a small thing, but it shows a level of hospitality that goes beyond most salons.

The pricing is structured by stylist seniority, which makes budgeting straightforward. A haircut with a Senior Stylist costs S$56, a Director cut costs S$76, and a Senior Director cut costs S$98, all including a hair wash. Colour services are equally transparent, with touch-ups from S$93 and full-head colour from S$109 to S$188 depending on length. There are no hidden surcharges or surprise add-ons.

Number76 also runs one of the better loyalty programmes in the salon industry. Members get free fringe trims at any location (useful between cuts), free haircuts for children aged five and under, and a referral programme with real discounts. For clients who value reliability and want a salon they can return to every six weeks without worrying about inconsistent results, Number76 delivers.

The salon's strength lies in Japanese cutting techniques that prioritise hair texture and movement over dramatic transformations. Clients consistently describe their cuts as looking better as they grow out, which is the hallmark of technically precise layering. Their organic spa therapies and scalp treatments are also popular, especially among clients dealing with Singapore's humidity-induced scalp issues.

One client review summed it up well: "The prices are the lowest among Japanese salons, and the staff and service are of Japanese quality." If you have been paying premium prices at other Japanese salons and want comparable results for less, NAOKI is worth trying.

The salon operates from two locations: a cosy space on Neil Road in Tanjong Pagar and a bright, plant-filled studio in Tiong Bahru. Both locations feel more like a friend's living room than a commercial salon. The Tanjong Pagar branch has a 98% recommendation rate across 83 Facebook reviews, while the Tiong Bahru branch hits 100% across 70 reviews. Those are not numbers you see often.

Flamingo also offers eyelash services alongside hair, making it a convenient two-in-one stop. Pricing falls in the mid-range (S$55 to S$330 depending on the service), and first-time visitors can access promotional rates. For expats and locals who struggle with frizz, flatness, or styles that collapse within hours of leaving the salon, Flamingo's climate-aware approach is a genuine differentiator.

The salon provides a thoughtful set of amenities: treatment gowns, personal slippers, pillows, refreshment menus, tablets, wireless chargers, and high-speed Wi-Fi. A small but meaningful policy is their free retouching within 10 days: if you are not satisfied with a cut, colour, perm, or rebonding, they will fix it at no charge. That guarantee removes a lot of the anxiety that comes with trying a new salon.

The trade-off is that reviews are mixed. While the majority of clients report positive experiences, some have flagged inconsistency between stylists and occasional service issues. My advice: book with a specific stylist based on their individual reviews rather than walking in and taking whoever is available.

The salon occupies a spacious 1,200-square-foot space with high ceilings, natural sunlight, and a private room for clients who want extra quiet. Their pricing is refreshingly competitive for the quality on offer: haircuts from S$40, colouring from S$99, and treatments from S$69. Their bundle deal of a haircut plus organic hair colour for S$139 nett (normally S$219) is genuine value, not a bait-and-switch. Free parking at the doorstep is a bonus that Orchard Road salons simply cannot match.

If you are someone who cares about what goes on your scalp, Edmund's specialisation in organic colouring, Korean perms, anti-frizz keratin, and aromatherapy scalp treatments makes it worth the trip to Upper Thomson. The salon may not have the glamour of a city-centre location, but the product quality and attentive service more than compensate.

The hair services are Korean-inspired, with a full menu of cuts, perms, colour, rebonding, and treatments. Their colour bundles start from S$268 and include a haircut, single-tone colour, treatment, and styling, which is competitive for the Orchard Road area. Senior stylists like Nicole have earned praise for handling complex colour work including balayage. Consultations are free, and you can book via WhatsApp or their online form.

Be aware of weekend surcharges: S$30 extra on Saturdays and Sundays, with additional premiums of S$10 to S$30 depending on your stylist's seniority. That can push a colour bundle past S$320 on a Saturday afternoon. If budget matters, book a weekday appointment.

The salon is upfront about what you will pay. Ladies' haircuts are S$45, men's cuts are S$32, and the pricing is published clearly on their website with no asterisks or conditions. They also run a complimentary member loyalty programme for returning clients. Client reviews consistently highlight two things: transparent pricing and zero hard-selling. In an industry where "starting from" prices often double by the time you reach the counter, Act Point's honesty has built a loyal following.

The trade-off is popularity. Act Point is frequently packed, especially for perm appointments, and wait times can be longer during peak hours. Book well in advance, particularly for weekend slots. If you are specifically looking for a digital perm and do not want to overpay for the privilege, this is the salon to call first.
