New to this 12-year-old brand’s stable is this swanky boutique that’s carved out into three key sections: The Suite, The Salon, and – just for the men – The Bunker. There’s also a work station with charging points, a ‘hair analysis’ area flanked by spotlights and three mirrors, a kids’ area with toys, and a pantry well stocked with coffee, tea, snacks and fruit. Haircuts by senior stylists start from $40 for adults and $35 for those under 16, and peak at $70 if you request for a principal stylist.
The brand’s 12 branches across the island each offers a different experience. If you’re looking for a premium ’do, there are two Kimage Prestige boutiques staffed by senior stylists – or, on the other end of the spectrum, cheap cuts (from $6) and colouring services (from $25) by students over at Kimage Hairdressing School. The catch? You’re not a customer but a hair model.
