10 Best Hair Salons in KSL Worth Splurging on This Weekend

KSL City Mall is one of those places where you can shop, eat, get your nails done and still squeeze in a full hair makeover before heading home.

It’s truly a wondrous mall and like many malls in Malaysia, they have no shortage of salons. But too many options can feel a little overwhelming when several of them offer similar cuts, colouring, perms and treatments.

Hence today, we want to narrow things down to 10 hair salons in JB KSL that are worth checking out for a weekend appointment. We have included a mix of well-known names and less obvious picks, along with their services, starting prices where available, opening hours and location details so you can compare them more easily.

Top 10 Hair Salon in KSL

1. REDS Hair Salon KSL

REDS Hair Salon KSL takes the first spot for having one of the broadest service menus in KSL City Mall, whether you are popping in for a haircut or dedicating your Saturday to a complete colour and texture transformation.

It is especially convenient for anyone who likes knowing roughly what they are getting into before sitting in the chair. The hair salon in KSL publishes starting prices for most of its core services, including cuts, colouring, perms, rebonding and treatments.

The KSL branch also has a Muslimah section for customers who prefer greater privacy during their appointment.

2. HA99 Hair Salon

HA99 Hair Salon Branch 2 is one of the less talked-about names in KSL, which is exactly why it earns a place near the top of this list.

The salon occupies several adjoining lots on Level 2 and offers the familiar full-service salon experience without the enormous online footprint attached to some of KSL’s headline names.

Notable Services

• Haircuts
• Shampoo and blow-dry
• Hair colouring
• Perming
• Straightening and rebonding
• Hair treatments
• Styling

What HA99 Hair Salon Offers

HA99 is worth looking at if you would rather explore one of KSL’s quieter salon options instead of automatically going for the names with thousands of reviews.

Its Level 2 location also puts it right within KSL’s substantial cluster of hair and beauty businesses. KSL’s official directory currently lists HA99 at lots L2-72, L2-73 and L2-74.

3. S.Sebastian Professional Salon & Hub

S.Sebastian Professional Salon & Hub is a useful option if you want to combine hair care with a few extra beauty services during the same KSL visit.

Unlike salons that focus purely on hair, S.Sebastian also offers nail and grooming treatments. From gel pedicures, manicures and eyebrow threading to its hair services, you can pretty much spend a whole day at S.Sebastian to get your nails and hair done.

Notable Services

• Haircuts
• Hair colouring
• Scalp treatments
• Keratin treatments
• Manicures
• Gel manicures
• Pedicures
• Gel pedicures

You can potentially combine a haircut or treatment with a manicure, pedicure or eyebrow threading service, which is convenient if you have set aside a few hours for grooming at KSL.

Its KSL outlet also occupies two adjoining Level 2 lots under the name S.Sebastian Professional Salon & Hub. KSL City Mall currently lists the salon at L2-087 and L2-088.

4. Lofty Nail & Hair Studio KSL

Lofty Nail & Hair Studio is particularly handy if scalp care is part of your weekend reset.

Alongside standard hair and nail services, customer experiences highlight a five-step scalp treatment that includes scalp analysis and is designed to address concerns such as itchiness, product build-up and general scalp condition.

Notable Services

• Hair services
• Scalp analysis
• Five-step scalp treatment
• Manicures
• Pedicures
• Gel manicures and pedicures
• Combined hair and nail appointments
• Five-step scalp treatment, reported at RM182
• Gel manicure and pedicure, reported at RM140

What Lofty Nail & Hair Studio Offers

The standout here is how easily you can combine treatments.

One customer reported having a scalp treatment, manicure and pedicure completed in roughly two hours because parts of the services were carried out at the same time. The same visit included a scalp analysis before treatment, which can be useful if you are dealing with irritation or are unsure what your scalp actually needs.

That makes Lofty a good option if you want to maximise your time at KSL rather than booking separate appointments for hair and nails.

5. BE Hair & Nail

BE Hair & Nail is one of the easier salons to budget for because it publishes prices across both its hair and nail menu.

You can come in for something simple such as a wash and cut, or put together a fuller appointment with colouring, a Korean digital perm, keratin treatment and nail services without needing to visit multiple outlets.

The nail menu also has several levels, including classic and express gel options, so you are not locked into the most expensive package if you only want a quick tidy-up.

The addition of nail services and a Muslimah room also gives you more flexibility depending on how you want to spend the appointment.

7. VZ Hair Salon

VZ Hair Salon has been operating in Johor Bahru since 2015 and puts a noticeable emphasis on changing hair texture. Its menu covers Shiseido rebonding, Korean digital perms, keratin smoothing and Brazilian keratin straightening alongside cuts and colouring.

8. Tik Top Hair Studio & Hair Extensions

Tik Top Hair Studio & Hair Extensions is worth considering if you want to add noticeable length or volume rather than simply changing your cut or colour.

Located on the Lower Ground floor of KSL City Mall, the salon puts hair extensions front and centre while still operating as a full hair salon. This gives it a more specialised angle if you are planning a bigger transformation for the weekend.

Notable Services

• Hair extensions
• Haircuts and styling
• Hair colouring
• Hair treatments
• Hair transformation services

What Tik Top Hair Studio Offers

Hair extensions are the clearest reason to look at Tik Top if your goal is a more dramatic change.

Extensions can be useful if you want longer-looking hair, additional volume or more flexibility when creating layered and styled looks without waiting months for your natural hair to grow.

Since extension pricing can depend on factors such as length, quantity and the method used, it is best to contact the salon for a consultation and quotation before your appointment.

9. LUXE Studio KSL City Mall

LUXE Studio KSL City Mall is a good option if you want more control over how premium your appointment feels.

You can choose between different stylist levels, from professional stylists to salon, creative and artistic directors. This gives you the flexibility to keep things relatively simple for a trim or spend more on a senior stylist for a bigger restyle.

10. Studio M @ JB Hair Salon

Studio M @ JB Hair Salon is worth considering if you are just as concerned about the condition of your hair as you are about the final look.

Still Can’t Choose? Let’s Wrap It Up

If you’re still indecisive about your choices, we understand. Hair care is deeply personal and what works for others on Instagram or Threads doesn’t necessarily work for you.

For a full makeover: Choose REDS or LUXE for broader treatment menus and a more polished salon experience.

For perms and texture services: VZ and X2 are strong options for rebonding, keratin treatments and Korean-style perms.

For hair and beauty in one stop: Lofty and BE Hair & Nail are convenient if you want to combine hair with nails or other treatments.

Before you book, always make sure to confirm the final price and reserve ahead for longer services such as colouring, bleaching, rebonding or perming. Book ahead or schedule a consultation with the salon of your choice, trust us it will save you the awkward hassle.

While walks-ins are normally accepted, salons near the causeway are often packed on the weekends so be prepared for the lunch time crowd!
