When it comes to visiting the hair salon, we all have different needs and preferences. For our sisters who wear hijabs, privacy is necessary—even better if served by an all-female staff. Bonus, is if they sell halal-certified hair products. Salons such as these aren’t exactly easy to come by, even in Singapore, where beauty services are abundant. So for our hijab-loving friends, we've rounded up Muslimah-friendly salons and spas that are worth a visit. Feel like the princess that you are, as you bask in soothing hair spa treatments, or indulge in a stylish new haircut.
