This is the luxury format out of all Jawed Habib salons.

On the occasion Jawed said, “The rainy season has set in and we all have our concerns regarding our hair and skin. During monsoon it is important to take utmost care of your hair as it becomes damp. It is a common mistake that people make by washing hair in hot water. Hot water dries your scalp which leads to itchiness and dandruff. Washing your hair with cold water protects your hair from further damage. Applying a little oil just 10 minutes before your hair wash is the best conditioner. Or go to a Hair Spa once a week.  Regular facials help you keep your face glowing with proper nutrition”.
