Definitely going back. I recommend all the ladies to try this salon. I can guarantee you it wonβt disappoint.

Tara Rose Hair and Beauty Salon – Saadiyat
Address :
Turquoise 7, Mamsha Al Saadiyat – Al Saadiyat Island – Abu Dhabi
Irina Moores: They’re amazing- they saved my hair after a disaster at another salon. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. Zara cut my hair perfectly and Neeka did an excellent job with the colour. I will come back soon!
2:
Amal Ab: Had the most amazing experience with Neeka! She assessed my hair and helped me put a plan together that suited both my face shape and skin tone, and gave me advice on the process and journey she would recommend for my hair that would line up with what I wanted yo achieve long term. I left feeling like a new person! Always the best service too!
3:
Manuela Stefanides: The Tara salon experience is unique, but Sahra made it even more special! She sensed my concerns for the treatment and she had the time and patience to run me through, test different treatments on my hair, just to make sure I will be 100% satisfied with the result. And all this with her expertise and a big smile! I love the results on my hair and it is exactly what I wanted, I would definitely recommend her for any keratin or color treatment. She is the best!
fatima Ma: The salon experience was like no other. The reception staff are very friendly and offered me a refreshment. I really recommend Laurelle who first did a consultation for my hair where she listened and discussed my hair history and hair routine. She washed, blow dried, and curled my hair. Safe to say my hair never looked this shiny and vibrant. They put care in every little detail from the products to the teas they serve. I bought a conditioner they recommended specific to my hair needs. Definitely will be back again
2:
Ellie Zindilis: What a treat! Erica did such a good job with her consultation and made me feel totally comfortable. She asked to see pictures of my natural hair texture and asked about my daily routine to make sure I would be happy and capable to style my hair once it was cut. I was advised about the different treatments on offer but there was no hard sell and when I gave her my budget she advised the most beneficial so I had a gorgeous olaplex treatment. May washed my hair and gave a gorgeous little head massage whilst doing so. She explained the particular shampoo and conditioner she was using and why she thought they would suit my hair texture which was a really nice touch. My cut felt really good, not a wham-bam-thank-you-mam job. Erica took her time and as a working mum I appreciated the extra pamper minutes I could scrape away from home. She even styled my hair twice after I mentioned it was my birthday and gave me a day-to-night look.
3:
Tiana Harrell: Miss Jocelyn is the best color expert I know! She not only exceeded my request of brighter highlights but focusing more on lighting the hair around my face. Not to mention the time and effort to rehydrate and style each and every curl of mine. 10/10 recommend this amazing salon! Thank you again love! ππ½πππ β¦
Maureen Rouilleris: I got my toddler a haircut in this salon. The lady was very patient and did a very nice job, even though the baby was moving a lot. Good quality/price (50 aed for a baby boy).
2:
Marina Y: My son had his first haircut here and it was amazing. Ms.Liza was so nice he never cried. Although my son was moving around so much she was so professional she did his hair so nicely he looks so cute now! My daughter also likes Ms.Liza to cut her hair all the time:) Thank you always Ms.Liza!!

Tara Rose Hair and Beauty Salon – Khalifa
Address :
Khalifa City A, Street 26, Villa 198, Near Adnoc Petrol Station – Abu Dhabi
Veronika Srncova: I started regularly going to Tara Rose about year and a half ago. I had pretty damaged hair from unprofessional treatments but also lack of self care. Nikki has been taking care of my hair ever since and I cannot be happier! My hair looks much healthier, Nikki recommended self care products, chose great color and cut for me and overall made sure that my hair is everything! π Highly recommended!

And always there to help with my crazy colour hair wishes π₯Ήπ€ an amazing hairdresser, professional and hairstylist. If you are looking for a professional to entrust your hair to – it definitely should be her! But please, donβt book her fully, leave some time for me ya all!π€ thanks Tara for having her, she is brilliant.

Elaine Davie: Kate at Tara Rose Khalifa City A is my go to hairdresser. I have short hair which isn’t easy to style. Kate is more than capable of handling the job in hand. A true professional in every sense of the word. I have a standing appointment every four weeks for a style and colour (purple). We have a talk about any changes to be made or not. Once the pros and cons have been agreed upon…then the scissors come out. The time spent beforehand is time well spent. I never feel rushed. The other members of the team are very attentive. All in all, I leave the salon feeling upbeat and have had a very enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend Kate.
