When the owner of a beauty salon insists that her salon is the best, you involuntarily think that no one will say anything bad about themselves. But when the hostess is not just a beauty and a clever girl, but an extremely well-groomed beauty and a clever woman, you can’t imagine a better confirmation of her words. The owner of the Famous salon, Malika, is just that - the cover girl, from the category of those admired not only by men, but also by women. When Malika assured me that Famous is not “another Russian salon”, but “a salon of a different level,” I was ready to take her word for it, because all the facts were in person. Moreover, there is no strength left to go to different ends for manicures and pedicures, and to the hairdresser - in Abu Dhabi. But to check - this is my job.
"I sincerely believe that any woman is beautiful by nature. There are no exceptions. Therefore, I try to help other women, because each of us deserves to be a queen," said Malika, meeting me in her small but very cozy salon in Dubai Marina. I willingly believe that good energy in the cabin is immediately felt, here it is somehow comfortable and calm at home.
“My main task was to assemble a team of real professionals in one place. It took a lot of time and effort. The result was worth it: today I am sure that each of Famous employees is a master of his craft. So, our clients do not need to go anywhere else - we’ll do everything in the best possible way. " However, it’s time to check the standard “salon” set: hair, nails, face.
Hair is in charge of Nastya and Diana, who for a couple do more than a hundred types of manipulations with hairstyles! Nastya is a certified colorist technologist, specialist in blondes and a master in braiding. I’m not blonde, but Nastya’s eyes, it’s immediately obvious, are well-intentioned: I have chosen the color “to the point” and for the mood. "I love working in a classic style, where there are no less opportunities for interesting decisions than in creative coloring.
Any hair can be revitalized, made beautiful. The main thing is not to harm! ”, Nastya told me, recommending staining with highlighting on the face,“ now a little highlighting will give shine to the face, and will save hair. In the future we will carefully support and do something else. Everything is good in moderation! ". I liked this approach: I well remember how the Lebanese master made me a beautiful hairstyle for one evening, but turned my hair into a haircut. The result of Nastya’s work surprised me - painting, toning, cutting, treatment and gentle styling - it seems to be nothing special, but the hair just started to play, even show it in advertising!
Diana, like Nastya, is a professional in dyeing and haircuts, but her specialization is hair extensions. I, as a follower of a natural product, set her an example of gorgeous hair of one of the clients, proving that leaving can give the same result. Imagine my surprise when it turned out that her hair was extensions! "This is keratin, or" Italian, "extension. It looks surprisingly natural, and is not harmful to the hair, but even useful: extension is done on keratin capsules. Such beauty lasts up to six months and, importantly, does not need to be adjusted to fit the hair ": it is possible both at sea and in the sauna, nothing will fall out and will not slip. This is the best and safest technology to date."
Svetlana, one of the first masters in acrylic and gel building and design in our homeland, is engaged in nails, a student of world-famous masters and a bronze Champion of Russia in acrylic building. Again, I - for everything natural, but to not appreciate what Svetlana does is simply impossible! A physician by training, she not only exclusively extends her nails, but also decorates them in an absolutely incredible way. Simple drawings are what! Svetlana can make acrylic rosette for a fingernail, and draw frosty patterns with crystals inside an extended plate, and, if you want, even mount a coin in a nail. Miracles, and more!
After high-quality manicure and pedicure, they made me a gel polish, which should protect me from the need to change the varnish for almost 2 weeks and strengthen my weak nails. The prospect is attractive, especially for lovers of red: so much money is spent on repainting! The face was left to the Filipino cosmetologist, who had worked with Elemis for a long time. And it is felt. The girl is extremely competent and professional. It works clearly, evaluates the condition of the skin and selects products for the case. The products, by the way, are wonderful - nowadays Academie brand is extremely popular in Europe. She also knows how to do a deep cleansing of the face, the one that we love so much, and which is almost never done in the Emirates. I liked the result tremendously.
For "sweet" they gave me a massage and a procedure with ear candles - services for the salon from the category of "extra". The massage was, oh, how good! Such good hands and technique are rare even in spas. After spending several hours at Famous, I noticeably changed. Indeed, Malika is right - her efforts to form a team were not in vain. Professionals! What can I say.
I am writing four days later. I just can’t get enough of my nails - they shine like brand new, glassy, and you don’t need to repaint every day! Fresh face. Hair is still silky and fragrant, color - 10 points. I look at my nails and again struggle with the desire to grow my hair with a mermaid ...
