2. Andreas Zhu Salon & Beauty Lounge
You don’t have to travel all the way to France to experience how it feels to sit in a Parisian salon. Just take a drive up north to Andreas Zhu Salon & Beauty Lounge in Pluit, and get ready to be transported to the classic and industrial Parisian era. Behind the salon is celebrity hairstylist Andreas Zhu, whose loyal clientele includes Indonesian superstars like Dian Sastro and Agnes Monica. The salon is most famous for haircutting and colouring, especially when it comes to balayage hair. If you want your locks to be cut by the celebrity hairstylist himself, be prepared to make an appointment long before your visit, and when we’re talking long here, it means around a month (or even more!) before the day!

3. One Piece Hair Studio
Headed by Hisato Suzuki, One Piece Hair Studio takes pride in being the first to introduce the Japanese Step Bone Cut in Indonesia. The hair cut technique used is especially perfect for Asian women, as it suits their bone structure and creates a slimmer effect. In comparison to other salons, this one is using a quite different way in hair cutting, as they use a combination of razor and scissor to create texture and more volume. And also, what is Japan without its advanced technology? Here at One Piece, you can enjoy amazing technologies such as carbonated water system (yes, they use soda water to wash your hair and peel off the dead skin flakes on your scalp!), bio straightening to moisturise your hair after rebonding or curling, and many more.

4. Irwan Team Hair Salon
Long voted as one of the best salon chains in Jakarta, Irwan Team Hair Salon employs a slew of expert stylists ready to get the job done right. The salon’s vibe is both sleek and comfortable – if you’ve ever visited one of their Kerastase treatment lounges you’ll know what heaven on Earth feels like – and you can depend on the Irwan Team to give you the impeccable haircut of your dreams. Booking is recommended as this salon chain is located in busy shopping malls, but walk-ins will probably be squeezed in at any time of day.
