Hong Kong, Central. November 2023…read more The Mandarin Oriental's Barber is on the hotel's second floor. Gentlemen will receive a bespoke experience influenced by England and Shanghai. You can get a haircut and shave from your barber. Someone is available to do a Shanghai pedicure if you don't take care of your feet and spend a lot time barefoot. Some of their barbers have worked there for decades and only serve regular clients in a private room. When not in use the private room is open to mostly hotel guests. Your pampering starts with an offer of coffee or proper tea w biscuit. Come in early to unwind. I believe a beer is available from downstairs in the late afternoon for you after work types who need a cut or shave. It's very nice to pamper yourself once in a while in a gentleman's environment.

We came here for the Shanghainess pedicure, aka. shaving skin very softly from the feet. I saved my…read morefeet skin for two months so I can fully enjoy this. The guy who did my pedicure was very nice, asked how long my nails want to be (yes they do cut nails and even put nail polish on if you like), then carefully lifted my feet and started shaving skin, from bottom to top. I've never experienced such thorough shaving that I felt like my feet were 2lbs lighter. To be fair it's not the cheapest pedicure, about a little over $100, but given I'm only coming to Hong Kong every 3 years or so, it's very worth it.

Only master Gary is patient enough to deal with me. He has great skill and is very patient. Also, he will serve you a cup of water, napkins, and has free wifi to boot! Many tourists go home and wonder why their vacation photos are crap. That's because they neglect their beauty regimens while they are travelling. You might be surprised to find that if you take care of your hair while on vacation, you'll have great vacation photos!

Yelp is not a thing in HK. At all. Try to use Yelp here and you're stuck with a handful of touristy…read morerestaurants that are few and far apart. So when I first stepped out of the elevator to the 10th floor of this hidden little building off a hidden little road off Queen's Road Central, and I saw that familiar red circle emblazoned with "People Love Us On Yelp", I knew I belonged. So I've always been loyal to one hairdresser back in Canada but I decided to shake things up and go to a salon in HK that 1) Wouldn't give me an 80's hairstyle 2) Wouldn't charge me insane amounts of money. A quick Google search turned up an SCMP article going into exquisite detail about The Attic, with a cut costing about HKD $400. Perfect. Calling in to reserve, they let me know that there are tiers of hairstylists. Junior stylists are about HKD $350, with master stylists over HKD $1000. Colouring started at HKD $800 with highlights and bleaching costing extra. All colouring has a HKD $50 consultation fee. Sounds good. They booked me in for a mid-tier $480 cut. So far, so good. The woman on the other end of the phone was informative and polite. The good service continues! I'm seated right at my appointment time in a bright, large, spacious area and offered a beverage right away. My stylist, Winky, comes over and discusses everything with me. I show her a picture, she clarifies a couple things and then I'm getting half my hair chopped off. A lot of people were surprised at how much I was taking off but I was never loyal to any particular hairstyle anyway. Winky was clearly a great stylist, but also great at customer service. She explained why she cut a certain part a certain way, how to keep my hair from flipping out, and what products to use. Maintenance is almost as important as the initial cut. During the cut, she gave advice on things like getting more layers, and I was happy to give her the go-ahead. The cut turned out fantastic, exactly what I wanted. I also wanted to re-highlight my hair, but that was way over my budget so Winky suggested I just colour my roots and not to touch my existing highlights. Didn't know that was an option! A hair technician took care of the colouring part. She worked quickly and efficiently, and the colour turned out great, blending seamlessly into my original colour. Also, because I had to get colouring done, I got my hair washed twice, which is always my favourite part. If I ever win the lottery, I'd indulge in 3rd party hair washing all the time. At the Attic, it was like a mini spa treatment.The room was dark, quiet, and fragrant with light flowery aromas. The girl even gave me a head massage. This is a premium salon so service matches expectations. Everyone is extremely polite and continuously offer beverages, biscuits, and tons of magazines. I gotta say, having a hot pot of earl grey keep me company makes the time pass by much faster. Even though tipping isn't a part of HK culture, hair salons are a bit of an exception. They might not expect any, but make sure you tip the people here! They work hard to make you happy. (44/100) - 2017

I went to have my haircut here last month and the best part of my experience is the head massage…read more The head massaging was so comfortable, I almost fell asleep in the process. I quite like the smell of the shampoo they used, it smells natural and nice. The hairstylist was patient and friendly, as i have no idea with my haircut, he gave me professional and useful comments and I was satisfied with the outcome. The price is reasonable and definitely worth it. I highly recommend this salon for someone who are searching for a good hair salon in Hong Kong. Thanks The Attic ,look forward to the haircut next week!

But I truly appreciated how she kindly gave me her honest opinion. I came on a Saturday so it was crowded. The chairs are placed close to each other. It's not the cleanest salon - there's hair everywhere. I guess they can't keep up with all the haircuts that are happening so they just leave the hair there until someone gets around to it. LOL. I guess business is good! If you're looking for more of a fancy upscale place, this wouldn't be the place to go to.

The person I had gave me the world's worst layers in the front that were cut parallel to the floor at different levels -- they ended up looking like stairs. It was so jaggedy and they tried to convince me that the slant was 45 degrees. I also requested to have NO thinning. In the end, the second hairdresser who came to fix the cut had to thin out my hair to make the gradients look somewhat normal, which i very much dislike but knew had to be done to make the jagged stairs i had in my hair look better. I've never had any problem getting a straight cut/trim at any salon in my lifetime, but this place was awful.

My Cantonese is absolutely horrible but he got the point! I colored my hair to a red brownish color balayage style. The basic package was $100 HKD cheaper but I opted for the Goldwell package which was roughly $500 HKD. I remember paying roughly $60 USD which was super cheap compared to getting it done at the states. They also accept credit card!!! Most places in Hong Kong use cash but in the states, we love our cards so this place makes it convenient! It took roughly 3-4 hours getting my hair done and my butt was flatter by the end of it. BUT it was so worth it because my hair was in good hands! My friend also came with me and she got the basic package. She said it was her favorite place to go thus she brought me along. Passing along this recommendation, I would highly recommend coming here if you want to color and cut your hair! :)

Since arriving in HK my hair has been very voluminous, I also have a lot of hair. My stylist explain that the water and shampoo is a little more drying and harsh in the US. While the water here is a little softer combine with the humidity, it was a great atmosphere for my hair. I highly recommend this salon to anyone that comes here from the out of the country. My sister and I got the cut, color and treatment hair package. The stylist's take their time and ensure your hair is pristine by the time you leave. I love my cut and color! The stylist did a great job on my daughter's hair as well. I really wanted to tip them more, but with my mom being a typical frugal Asia lady she was watching me like a hawk. I know it's not in the HK culture to tip, but I really wanted to put down more. My sister got to put down more tip as I shooed my mom away while she paid for hers. Next time I will defiantly come back without my mom in the tow!! Wish we had more salons like this in the states!!! AAA++

I've never booked here, and the longest I've had to wait is about 15 minutes. Great atmosphere - dark wood, black and white photos and bevelled mirrors. Not quite the plush leather and brass of the Mandarin Oriental, but a manly feel all the same. Cutters and stylists are receptive to requests and sufficiently skilful to give you what you want. I lucked out with a GQ magazine at my seat with Daniel Craig on the front - too easy to point at his picture and ask for a cut like James Bond in Spectre! Definitely a haunt for me.
