Afro Hair in Hong Kong

Afro Hair in Hong Kong

Read down the Hong Kong list and a pattern shows up fast. These are general salons that also take Afro hair work: a Korean salon in Central, a Japanese one on Queen Victoria Street, a Sheung Wan barbershop, a colour workshop in Mong Kok. None present themselves as textured-hair specialists. That is the honest shape of supply here, and it changes what to ask.

44 businesses in Hong Kong list Afro hair under Beauty Salons. Of those, 34 carry a rating, averaging 4.7, with 27 at 4.5 or above. Two have no rating at all.

Where they are

Central and Western holds most of the well-reviewed entries: LEEKAJA X AMONG at Century Square with 605 reviews, Cave Barbershop on Wing Lok Street in Sheung Wan with 238, and Hair Quest on Queen Victoria Street with 137. Across the harbour, Crazycolor workshop on Sai Yeung Choi Street South in Yau Tsim Mong has 281, and BMF The Aesthetics People in Metro Plaza, Kwai Tsing, has 351.

All five sit at 5.0, so the scores separate nothing. Review counts and location are what you have to work with.

What to ask

With generalist salons, what matters is whether one particular stylist has worked with textured hair and how recently. Ask for that person by name. Photos of previous clients with hair like yours tell you more than the overall rating does.

None of these businesses take bookings through Glow360 yet, so every appointment starts with a call. None publish prices either, so settle the figure and the time needed before you go in. A few entries filed under this treatment are not hair businesses at all, including a massage shop in Sham Shui Po, so check the name before you dial.

Salons that want bookings from this page can enable them with our free booking software. Corrections go to help@glow360.com.
