Just a short post to give some detailed information about the beauty salon at KAUST – the services offered and how much they charge.
Personally I have used their waxing, threading and manicurist services and they’ve all been great – I have heard some less than complimentary stories about the hairdressing aspect of the salon but I have not had my hair done myself so can’t confirm if this is true or not!
The ladies/mens salons are housed in separate buildings, they are in fact KAUST houses which have been converted to house the salons and they are both in the island district. The ladies salon is lovely and clean, they offer a range of beauty/cosmetic products to buy which is useful as Tamimi can be limited in that respect.
Below I have included the price lists of both the female and the male salons, as always if you have any questions please comment and let me know and feel free to follow me on Instagram (@livinginarabia) for regularly updated pictures of KAUST.

Hello and welcome to my blog, detailing my experiences living and working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
I'm a 33 year old English girl (can you still call yourself a girl if you're a mam?) from the North East of England and I moved to Saudi Arabia in 2015 to work at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology with my other half Paul.
I have a lot of varied passions, many of which have changed in recent years as I have inevitably become older - not yet wiser, still waiting for that bit to happen - but many remain the same. I love to read, music, family, traveling, jumping in at the deep end, terrifying my parents with a recklessness bordering on stupidity, day dreaming, plan making and list writing.
When I was trying to make up my mind about whether to move here from the UK I spent a lot of time reading other people's blogs to give me as much information as possible; hopefully this blog will prove useful to others in the future. I will be posting a few times a week about life in KAUST, experiences in Saudi Arabia, cultural differences, food - and more specifically - veganism, travel and day to day life.
Hopefully this wont be the worlds most boring blog and I hope you find it useful - I'd love for you to get in touch with any questions or suggestions.
You can also find me on instagram @livinginarabia.

Hi Pip! Thanks so much for writing this blog. I moved to KAUST a couple of weeks ago and my other half is moving over in the next few weeks; your blog has been really helpful whilst preparing/packing to come over here. Is there any way I could PM/e-mail you to introduce myself and ask you a couple of KAUST questions?
